If you get injured, what’s your game plan?

Injuries in footy are inevitable, but sitting around a waiting room or waiting weeks to see a specialist doesn’t have to be.

Take advantage of the same elite services used by professional footballers, and get back out on the park with your mates sooner.

Injured VAFA players now receive fast track priority treatment at Epworth Richmond, Victoria’s largest private hospital emergency department.

Epworth. Better.

In 2011, a fantastic secondment opportunity in America came up and while I was quietly petrified, I knew it would change my life. In just 5 months, I met an incredible range of people, and was really challenged professionally. I grew up more in that short time than in the 5 years prior – there’s no other situation where I could learn as much as I did so quickly.

FINALS ACTION This week we see the final round of all the Divisions and Under 19’s, the preliminary finals of the Premier B and C Thirds and the Club XVIII Grand Finals. The Club XVIII Grand Final will have a missing ingredient; the Old Xaverian Crocodiles will not be playing in the Grand Final for the first time since 1992. What an amazing record – 24 consecutive Grand Finals for 18 premierships. This year, defending champions Hawthorn take on St Francis Xavier in Division 1 and Old Geelong play West Brunswick in the second division.

Most of the finalists throughout the divisions are reasonably secure in their positions. Old Mentonians, Old Geelong, Therry and PEGS look set to fight out the Division 1 finals. These four have been strong over the past month and pulled away from St Mary’s Salesian despite the Saints still having a slim chance. The win by Brunswick NOBSPC over Old Paradians kept the relegation battle alive. Paradians at home against sixth-placed Ivanhoe or Brunswick away against seventh-placed Whitefriars?

In Division 2, the top three are settled with St John’s, West Brunswick and Preston Bullants secure. A big win by MHSOB last week over fourthplaced Yarra Valley keeps their hopes alive. On paper Yarra Valley has the easier draw as they take on seventh-placed Bulleen Templestowe away whilst MHSOB host West Brunswick who need to win to keep the double chance. Richmond Central, after a period of five years where they played in finals and went from Division 4 to Division 2, will return to Division 3.

A final six in Division 3 has opened the gates for Power House who have won their past five matches and heading to the finals in good form.

Top sides, Glen Eira and Hawthorn, do battle this week but will have a bye in the first week of the finals while the other four teams fight for a right

to play them in the preliminary final. Two cut throat preliminary finals will sort out the grand finalists and those promoted to Division 2 in 2017.

Aquinas, Elsternwick and Parkside will fight it out in Division 4 next year Westbourne Grammarians are the only undefeated senior team in the VAFA this year. They have had a marvellous year and look way too good for their opposition with a percentage of 350; over 160 higher than second placed Point Cook. Still, promotion is never guaranteed until you win a final. There are numerous stories of sides being in the same position as Westbourne and going out in straight sets. After the disappointment of going out last year they deserve to finish undefeated. These two western suburbs clubs are joined by Eley Park Sharks and Mt Lilydale who make up the four.

With two rounds remaining in the Premier Sections, the competition is relentless. How are the bottom teams in Premier C feeling? The bottom four Ormond, Oakleigh, Marcellin and Old Camberwell did what they had to do – win against the higher placed teams. After completing their game, sing the club song then find out that each of the sides around them had also won. Relegation games are always the most compulsive and these sides will have to do it all again. Gunn Reserve will be a ripper as Ormond host Oakleigh. In Premier, St Bernard’s must beat Blacks to survive.

On behalf of the Board and staff we would like to thank all the volunteers who will be finishing up this weekend. They have put as much into the year as the players and hopefully the time has been rewarding. Keep supporting the competition as we head toward finals. For those keen VAFA supporters you can purchase a finals card at for just $50. This gets you into every final including the Premier Grand Final at IKON Park.

WILLIAM BUCK PREMIER

ALL TO SCRIPT While Fitzroy toppled Beaumaris in Premier B, Oakleigh upset Mazenod in Premier C and favourites fell in most other sections of the VAFA, Round 16 of William Buck Premier was arguably the most scripted week we’ve seen in 2016. Each team expected to salute actually tasted success.

While no outcome would surprise given the tightknit nature of the season, each team superior on the ladder were victorious but the result still left the door ajar and interest engaged for both finals and relegation.

De La Salle kept the thought of finals afloat as they snapped a five-game losing streak with a 69-point victory against St Kevin’s. All the heavy artillery fired for De La as Jake Williams, Hugh Nicholson, Tom Humphrey, Xavier Murphy and Matt Fieldsend imparted themselves on the contest. After 14 games in the reserves, Callum Dooley made his second appearance in the seniors and proved the match-winner with six majors. After six weeks of disappointment featuring a fall from first to fifth – De La returned to the form we know they can produce and gave themselves a chance at finals with games against Old Melburnians and Old Carey in the next two weeks. Trailing the Blacks by one game and 17.36% means they’ll need to win both and win them convincingly. While finals were out of the question prior to the game, the loss was St Kevin’s biggest for the season and against a team at the bottom end of the form guide. They’re still two games clear of relegation but will be keen to redeem themselves with a strong showing against the T’s.

Despite a four-goal second term and drawing level at half time, Collegians were unable to kick a major in any other quarter and went down to University Blacks by 24 points at Harry Trott Oval.

It was all Blacks in the first term as Tyrone Bean nailed two of his side’s four goals. Trailing by 27, the Lions tied things up via four unanswered 2

goals to Will Johnson (two), Dom Russo and Tom Penberthy, but were unable to sustain the intensity in the second half as Adam Pitt, Brent Sheahan and Hugh Curnow starred and helped the Blacks to the final three goals of the match.

Bede Mahon was well-held for the first time this season but, as with any good finals-bound team, others stood tall with Sheahan, Curnow and Tyson Kruse winning plenty of the ball. For how good the Lions are defensively (64PA), the lack going the other way (58PF) and will want to find alternative avenues to goal as they continue to try and stay in William Buck Premier.

A 28th-minute Dan Batarilo goal in the fourth term gave University Blues a six-point victory against Old Melburnians and helped them retain the number one ranking. Trailing by 18 points at the last break, OMs kicked the first three goals of the fourth before Batarilo embodied his inner Tony Modra and kicked the match-winner while facing the opposition’s goals. The Blues should be proud of their ability to stave off a talented OMs unit given they were missing Jeremy Mugavin (illness), Pete Summers (illness), Tom Silvestro, Dale Hinkley and Jeremy Taylor. The loss means the end of the OMs finals run as they fall two and a half games outside the four. It’s been an impressive year for OMs and they have now built a platform which will see them compete in William Buck Premier for years to come.

It was consecutive win number seven for the inform Old Xaverians as they defeated Old Carey by 69 points at Carey Sports Complex. Once again the goals were shared as Tom Anderson, Robert Ralph and Tyson Thomas registered three each.

Xavs are an attacking juggernaut at present, with a percentage of 145.77 more than 15% above its nearest rival. While form is not an issue, the biggest challenge for Xavs over the next fortnight will be knocking off either Uni Blues or Old Trinity and booking a double chance. So much rides on the Panthers’ next two weeks as they face Collegians and De La; two sides battling at either end of the ladder. One win could throw everything in the air.

The T’s refuse to give up their double chance as they cruised to a 57-point victory against St Bernard’s at Daley Oval. Importantly, Seb Nicolosi returned to the line-up and bagged four goals alongside two from Brendan Iezzi, Ed Weatherson

and Jack Osborn. While Jack Hunt is the renowned barometer for the green and gold, a lot could be said about Andrew Kyriacopoulos after he starred in the same fashion he commenced the year. Of his five best-on-ground performances this season, Kyriacopoulos has recorded four of them in T’s wins; an obvious sign of his ability to have a real impact. After the two sides played off in an epic William Buck Grand Final last year, the T’s and Snow Dogs haven’t shared the same contests in 2016 as the T’s claimed victory by 32 and 57 points, respectively. The Snow Dogs are far from resigned to Premier B in 2017 with a lot yet to unfold this season but we hope the next close clash is just around the corner.

ROUND 16’S TIGHT TUSSLES EXTEND GAPS

Things are a fair bit clearer now after Round 16. The weekend saw the closest group of matches in Premier B so far this season, with no result larger than four goals. The top side was toppled and the bottom side has doubled their season win tally in the space of three weeks. Teams second to fifth on the ladder all had wins, increasing the gap between the upper and lower halves of the table. A loss to Ajax saw an end to their finals hopes, and though Old Brighton and Parkdale are still mathematical possibilities, they would need to win both their remaining contests and rely on Old Scotch and Monash to lose both theirs.

Old Scotch and Old Haileybury were both looking to end three game losing streaks when they clashed at Princess Park. The Cardinals won their Round 6 contest by 28 after an eight-goals-to-one final term. The first half was a close affair, with Old Scotch taking a two-point lead into the rooms. Neither team scored for the first ten minutes of the third quarter, before Jono Daggian got the visitors on the board. Old Scotch started to dominate general play but could only manage four behinds over the next seven minutes. The two sides went goal-forgoal late in the quarter, with Tim Macmillan and Max Van Den Broek kicking truly for the Cardinals, while John Nicolopoulos kicked the Bloods first for the quarter after 20 minutes of play and was joined

by Josh Dawson with a nice running goal. Lack of discipline from the Bloods defence gave Nick Cox a 25m penalty and simple shot at goal, resulting in a 19-point lead at the last break. The Bloods won the final term but not by enough, as Old Scotch escaped with a 14-point victory and stayed up with Monash and Fitzroy in the fight for third and fourth spots.

Fitzroy faced a crucial clash with top side Beaumaris, as they battle with Monash and Old Scotch for finals spots. Their previous contest was in Round 7 and the Roys came from behind to force a draw, giving the Sharks their first ‘non-win’ of the season. Both sides came into the game in good form, with Beaumaris on a four game winning streak, and the Roys had won four out of five. Fitzroy managed one more scoring shot in the first half, but slightly superior accuracy gave Beaumaris a four point lead at half time. Luke Baker gave the Roys the best possible start, kicking a goal inside the first 30 seconds.

He was joined a couple of minutes later by Daniel Bisetto, who goaled after a contested mark. Daniel Gribbin got his hands on the ball early for the Sharks 4

but could only manage behinds, while up the other end, Max Davie, Tom Cheshire and Bisetto piled on the goals for the Roys. Robert Cathcart got the Sharks on the board with a couple of goals in quick time, but was answered by Baker and Jacob Long.

Josh Ward added another one for Beaumaris but the Roys had all the answers, with Bisetto taking a contested mark in the goal square and kicking truly.

When the siren sounded for three-quarter time, Fitzroy had outscored the ladder-leaders nine goals to three and taken a 32-point lead into the last quarter. The Roys were outscored in the final term but managed to hold on for an impressive 20-point win. The victory keeps them in outright third, half a game ahead of Monash and Old Scotch, while Beaumaris remains on top, but is now only half a game clear of St Bedes/Mentone.

Monash and Old Brighton went into their Round 16 contest as two of the form teams of Premier B. Monash had won five out of six before being derailed by Fitzroy the previous week, while Old Brighton were on a five-game winning streak.

Both teams sat on the edge of finals action and it was a classic ‘eight-point game,’ as a win would put Monash two games clear with two rounds to go.

Their Round 9 clash was a low scoring affair, with the Blues getting over the top of the Tonners and keeping them scoreless in the final term. The Blues got the jump in this game, kicking six openingquarter goals and keeping the Tonners to just two behinds. Old Brighton turned the tables and did the same thing to Monash in the second term, but could only manage 3.5 with the wind, leaving them trailing by three goals at half time. The Tonners continued their charge in the third quarter, kicking the first two goals in quick time thanks to William Bardoel and Ben Jakobi. However, Nick Petering stood up when the Blues needed him, kicking three goals on his own over the next seven minutes to wrestle back control for the visitors. Tom King took a strong contested mark and goaled for the Tonners, before Andre Headberry replied and then Alfred Oppy took advantage of a strong centre clearance and finished off for the Blues. Jakobi made Monash TODAY SELECTIONS IN BOLD Beaumaris v Old Brighton Fitzroy v Old Scotch Hampton Rovers v St Bedes/Mentone Tigers Monash Blues v Parkdale Vultures Old Haileybury v AJAX

pay for a defensive error, receiving a free kick and putting it through. The Tonners worked hard to keep within striking distance, and a four goal deficit seemed gettable. The defence did their bit by keeping the Blues scoreless but they could only manage 2.4, leaving them eight points short and, as a result, two games out of finals action.

St Bede’s/Mentone has kept themselves in contention for top spot after holding on for a nine-point win over Ajax. The Tigers started with the wind and set up a 19 point advantage, before the Jackas held them goalless in the second and kicked four themselves, taking a half time lead.

Dean Rotenberg got Ajax off to the perfect start, kicking the first goal of the third time. However, from there it was all St Bedes/Mentone, as Michael Barnes and Chris Richards chipped in, in addition to three goals from Josh Cowan. Cowan stirred up a bit of controversy late in the quarter with a big bump on David Fayman. In the ensuing scuffles, Ajax gave away a free kick and Cowan found himself with the ball in his hands and kicked a goal, just to rub salt

PREMIER B

Hampton have doubled their season win tally in the space of three weeks, after defeating the Parkdale Vultures. The Vultures surge ahead with a five goal second term, but the Rovers fought back to level things up at three-quarter time, setting the scene for a big last term. Daniel Corp led from the front and kicked the first for the Rovers in the first minute.

They added a couple of behinds before putting another goal through and taking control of the game. Josh Manning nailed a goal for the Vultures and very nearly had another one soon after, when, after a scramble in the goal square, he hit the post under pressure. Sam Bradford stood up for the Rovers, kicking his side’s last two goals and giving them their fourth win for the season.

PREMIER C

Christian Burgess

UPSET, UPSET, UPSET, UPSET....

An unbelievable weekend in Premier C football.

All four teams that are fighting off relegation all celebrated victories against teams far ahead of them on the ladder. Clubs aiming to escape relegation showed more fight than any others over the weekend. With the top four now officially settled for September, the bottom five teams will do all they can to remain in Premier C for 2017.

The old fashioned rivalry draws crowds to any game, and the Kew v Ormond battle lived up to all expectations. Due to the history of these two sides, there didn’t need to be finals aspirations on the line or relegation chances lingering for it to be as ferocious as the contest often is. It was a fierce and physical contest right from the start with both clubs making their presence felt. Neither side could find some momentum to break away to a lead, but it was Ormond who did find a slight upper hand, leading by a single goal at quarter time. The second quarter saw the scoring slow.

Kew only managed two scoring shots to Ormond’s five, but both sides only converting one goal each. Innacurate shots for goal from both teams diminished their chances of extending a lead, with only seven points in favour of Ormond, separating the two at three quarter time. Both sides began to hit the scoreboard in the last term, with 17 scoring shots combined. But it was the bigger bodies of Ormond that made in impact in the final quarter escaping to a 22 point victory. Young gun and VAFA Grill’d Rising Star nominee, Luke Gogis continued his stellar season with another best on ground performance, showing his maturity, standing up at times of test. Robert Chisholm kicked a bag of five in a big performance whilst Robert Maibaum kicked three for the Bears. Ormond will need to win their final two battles and rely heavily on positions 6-9 to fail at the back end of the season.

In recent weeks, the Bears have lost their chance at a finals run and now find themselves in a position with relegation a possibility. Of the bottom five teams, they are best placed, and will need to beat both Williamstown CYMS and Marcellin to ensure they remain in Premier C. 6

It was a fantastic battle between two of our elite sides of the competition, giving us a taste of what September has to come. Many who weren’t at the game may have thought that the scores weren’t loading correctly in the first quarter, when checking for updates, however it is true that Caulfield had 17 scoring shots to Peninsula’s zero.

But, the pIrates bounced back with a seven goal to two second quarter, entering the main break 22 points down. The Fields capatilised in the third term, using the breeze to extend their lead to beyond six goals. Both sides averaged five goals per quarter when kicking with the breeze, but the Pirates would require seven and to keep the Fields goalless in the last. The Pirates ticked one of those boxes, keeping the Fields scoreless in the last quarter but only managed five goals and five behinds falling six points short of the Fields in a gallant final term. William Barker was instrumental to the Fields victory, kicking four majors in a best on ground display. Brett Brisbane kicked his first goal for the season and finished with three for the day. Shaun Payze was brilliant in his 350th game for the Pirates, kicking three goals and was influential to the Pirates final quarter run.

Old Camberwell are doing all they can to avoid relegation, including a spectacular defeat of fourth placed Old Ivanhoe, which now has the Wellers sitting 7th, with their percentage the only restriction from them moving to 6th. From the first bounce, the Hoes made an impact, capatilising on their forward 50 entries and restricting the Wellers influence on the scoreboard. The Wellers kicked 10 behinds, before they kicked their first goal of the game which was late in the second term. At hal time, the Hoes were well in control with a 5 goal lead. Nick Reeves-Smyth was exciting in the first half, giving the Hoes plenty of run and flare, kicking two exciting goals. Unsure what was said at half time, behind the closed doors of the Wellers inner sanctum, but it worked. The Wellers kicked 35 points in the third quarter to the Hoes six points, flexing their muscles around each and every TODAY SELECTIONS IN BOLD Ormond v Oakleigh Williamstown CYMS v Kew Caulfield v Old Ivanhoe Marcellin v Mazenod Peninsula v Old Camberwell

contest and winning majority of the contested footy. Surprisingly, the Wellers had equal scoring shots to the Hoes in the first half, despite their deficit, but were far more effective on the scoreboard in the second half, kicking nine goals to the Hoes two. At round 12, Old Camberwell almost looked certain of facing relegation, sitting on the bottom of the ladder, before winning four games on the trot, moving to 7th.

Marcellin were in control all day ahead of Williamstown CYMS. Marcellin had hit a purple patch of form, having not lost since round 13 (Pirates) and were eager to continue their run of success to avoid relegation. Marcellin kept the Cy’s goalless in the first quarter jumping to a 20 point lead. Ash Viney’s strength around contests was inspiring, as he led Marcellin into the half time break with a 14 point buffer. The margin was too difficult for the CY’s to bridge for the remainder of the game, with Viney and Daniel Cullinan combining for six goals, whilst Russell Ackerly was the only multiple goal scorer for the Cy’s. Marcellin will face an out of form mazenod next week in an

PREMIER C

It was a round of upsets, but the Krushers stole the show beating 2nd placed Mazenod last Saturday.

The Krushers had to fight back an 8 point quarter time deficit before gaining the lead and never looking back. The Krushers five goal second term was more than enough hope as they went into the main break with a seven point lead. The Nodders only managed four more goals in the second half to the Krushers seven, in a thrilling 30 point upset. The twin towers for the Krushers proved too difficult to stop, with Trevor Bromley kicking five goals and Aaron Cloke kicking 3. Due to the bottom four sides all winning in round 16, the Krushers remain in 9th position only two points behind Marcellin.

It’s official; the VAFA will commence a women’s league in 2017. It may have taken 125 years but women will take the field for the first official VAFA match next year. After months of gathering support from our clubs, the Board had enough confidence the interest and enthusiasm will translate into fielding teams and we inaugurate the VAFA Women’s League. The interest amongst our clubs has been nothing short of phenomenal. Each club I speak with realise the opportunities of fielding of women’s team at their club. Of course not every club is in the position to get a team ready for 2017 but you should be planning. Each year the task will get more difficult. We have about 25 clubs who are working towards entering a team in 2017. Of this we are confident that at least half of these will run out on April 9 and become a foundation member of the VAFA Women’s League. What an historic occasion for the Association and those clubs.

BRUNSWICK STREET OVAL Saturday marks 50 years since the final VFL game was played at Brunswick Street Oval. The Club is hosting a major player reunion bringing back many players who have played in the Fitzroy jumper on that ground before 1966. This includes players such as Tony Ongarello, Kevin Murray and Bruno Zorzi.

The Final VFL game at BSO was between Fitzroy and St Kilda, which of course went on to win their only grand final just a few weeks later. The Fitzroy captain (John Hayes) and coach (Bill Stephen) from that game will be present and will be interviewed during the lunch, along with two personalities from the era, Gary Lazarus and Darryl Peoples.

There will be over 40 players who played at BSO during or before 1966 including about 7 or 8 from the 50s plus another 20 or so from the 60s.

so on the same day 50 years later the players will get together and hopefully cheer the current Fitzroy team home to a win over Old Scotch in VAFA Premier B, which would just about cement a finals’ spot; our first at this level.

One of Fitzroy’s former players and directors (at the time the club left the AFL), Colin Hobbs, is pulling the reunion together and would be happy to talk about it.

The final VFL game was played on 20 August 1966, 10

JOE ZUCCALA – 1000 GAMES Last Saturday when the Oakleigh AFC v Mazenod reserves game commenced it was the 1000th game that Joe Zuccala has kept time for Oakleigh.

Joe commenced his timekeeping way back in 1992 in round 1 against Bentleigh Reserves. He has continued his love for the game by participating in this capacity for most match days. Oakleigh’s recent addition to WA Scammell Reserve is a new electronic scoreboard to which the club has named it after Joe in recognition of his achievement. Joe is working on his computer skills in conjunction with the scoreboard. The true gentleman in a time consuming position at the club is well respected and all at Oakleigh wishes Joe in his future endeavours.

350

Arguably the Peninsula Old Boys Football Club's greatest player, Pirate legend SHAUN PAYZE, played his 350th game on the weekend against Old Caulfield.

Payze, 36, made his Pirates debut under former coach Brett McIlwraith way back in Round 1, 1998 (against the same opponent) booting four goals in an eye-catching display. It was the launch of extraordinary career in the blue and tan which has so far netted six best and fairests, five runner-ups and 11 club goal-kicking awards.

His best season, statistically, was in 2005 when "Horny" snagged 102 majors, including a bag of 16 versus Bentleigh just hours before the club unveiled its Team of the Quarter Century at Mornington Racecourse. It goes without saying, Payzey was picked at centre-half-forward in that team. He was club captain for nine seasons, won the league best and fairest in 2005 and was picked for the combined VAFA representative side in season 2000.

This week with over 600 goals in the bag, MITCHELL SWEENEY will take the field for the 150th time for the green & tan. Mitchell has played in 2 reserve premierships [BOG medal v Prahran] and leading goal kicker for the competition and club on multiple occasions. Mitch has strong hands and is generally deadly in front of goals. Not known for handballing he has recorded 5 this year due to the fact that the club is filming games! Off the field he has been President, committeeman and front man for the Annual Trivia Night. Mitchell is also known to have a punt and get regular updates from over the fence. All at Uni High look forward to the next 50 and congratulate you for your great effort on and off the field.

ANTHONY MILICEVIC played his 150th game for UHS recently. Recruited from Dynamo Zagreb way back in the Rick Watts days Ant struggled with the shape of the ball initially but not for long. Ant [sponsored by QUIT] is in career best form and has developed into a most reliable defender. Named captain of the reserves this year indicating how much UHSVU respects him as a footballer. Well done Ant we love the way you play.

Congratulations to Glen Eira Saints MICHAEL FLETCHER on his 150th game.

Michael’s commitment to the club has been formidable. A senior backman who has outplayed many a brash forward and has the ability to be an attacking player. Michael has been great off field especially organising players trips. His dad has been a trainer for a hundred years and his mum has also been a great help organising functions. Top family to have at our club. Fantastic milestone Fletch.

JOSH KALMUS reaches his 100 a week after brother Ben clocked up 150. Starting in 2008 battles with injuries have limited Josh from ever playing complete seasons. The battle scared “Pinga” is generally found at the bottom of packs stirring the opposition. Playing alongside brothers Ben and Jake and hopefully Sam in the future will be amongst his special moments.

JAK WARDLEY of ORMOND - Wards joined Ormond in the U/17s from St Pauls.

He played in reserves premierships in 2008 and 2015. He also played in an U/19 grand final and a reserves grand final in 2011. Congratulations from everyone at Ormond on reaching this milestone.

Congratulations to St. Marys Salesian's JOS OP'T HOOG - a determined and strong mid-size utility player, Jos can play in the backline or up forward. Hard at the ball and a good spoiler, he can play close in defence, or be accountable and effective around the goals. Jos is a terrific clubman and very popular with his teammates.

CHRIS MCPHERSON first played with SKOBs in 2009 and finished up with 29 U19 games before moving to senior football in 2011. Since then, Chris has been a regular and important member of the Thirds team. He was a member of the Premier B Thirds Grand Final side that went down to Old Xaverians by just 2 points. That loss was quickly forgotten in the following season when Chris played in the Premier Thirds side that defeated Old Xaverians in the Grand Final by 22 points, giving SKOBs their first ever Premier Thirds Premiership. Well done Chris

This week against Canterbury MARK FRIDGE ROBERTS runs out for the 100th time for UHSVU. It has taken a while due to his "Fire Fighting" job but Fridge is turning it on at the moment. He is really holding down a central defending position each week and beating each opponent that he is given. His strong marking and "raking" 30 meter kicks are his strengths along with the verbal direction he provides on the field. Congratulations Mark and enjoy the day.

NICK MARKS finally reaches his 100 for AJAX this week against Old Haileybury.

Joining the club in 2009 from Old Scotch Under 19 Nick has been the Club leader for the last 2 years. Had battles with injuries which has sidelined him, however his courageous efforts under adversity have been inspirational. Obviously the premiership medallion won in 2011 would be top of his highlight reel. A dependable defender, can often be relied on to hit the scoreboard with his raking lock kicks. Fantastic effort Nick

NICK ROWLAND chalked up his 100th game recently. One of the successful 2010 under 18 premiership team Nick has played great footy in the seniors since arriving from the juniors. Players at Uni High still don't know whether he is a right or left foot kick because he is so good on both sides of the body. A really important member of the senior team in a linking role we all look forward to Nick playing a pivotal part in the finals. Congratulations from all your mates at UHS.

Congratulations to Glen Eira Saints CHRIS ‘CRITTER’ HIGGINS on his 100th game.

A dour, tough defender who is now gaining a love, as backmen do, to play up forward. Kicked 5 last week so his versatility shows. Loves the off field antics and has also been a great helper when needed CHEYNE KELLY has finally reached the 100 game milestone. Cheyno has given his all for Uni High since he arrived from the Zoo! A real run and carry footballer with an excellent left foot & average right foot, Cheyne is an integral part of the UHS senior team. He is always interested in how the umpires are travelling & often enquires - he will make a great umpire himself if and when he retires. It should also be noted that Cheyne willingly [and never forgets] picks up the VAFA records every week. All at Uni High salute you Cheyne and thank you for all the efforts on and off the field over the years.

Oakleigh would like to congratulate PAT IOANNIDIS on his 100th game against Mazenod. Chris was recruited from Oakleigh Dragons and played his first Senior game against Beaumaris in round 1 2011. Pat has the drive to move the ball forward and is a regular senior team member. From all of your teammates, supporters and sponsors.

Congratulations to BRENDAN GOSS on reaching 100 games for the Old Xaverians Football Club. Gossy joined the Old Xavs in 2010, starting in the under 19s, kicking 57 goals in his first 12 games, before being promoted to the seniors. Gossy, one of our key forwards, kicked an incredible 80 goals in the 2013 Premiership year.

Gossy went to Balwyn for one year in 2015, however has returned better than ever in 2016 only just behind Matt Handley in leading the VAFA goal kicking. Gossy has also represented the Big V on five occasions. Well done Gossy on achieving this significant milestone, hopefully many more games in the ‘red and black’ to come.

Aaron Toy has reached the 50 game milestone at OLD HAILEYBURIANS. Famous for putting Cam Mooney on his backside at a Fox Footy night when still an under-19, Tonka's approach to the game has always been characteristically vigorous. Dark and bearded, Aaron has always had a great pair of hands and is typically clean with his ball use. He's fined down considerably since those junior days, testament to his desire to improve and achieve regular senior selection.

NOBS NOT DONE Brunswick NOBSPC has pulled off an inspiring victory to turn the relegation battle on its head.

The beauty of the VAFA relegation system was on display at Gillon Oval as the NOBs and Old Paradians went at it with finals like intensity. The win sets up a huge final round on the relegation front with the Raiders coming up against Ivanhoe, an opponent they will back themselves against.

While the top four is all but confirmed after PEGS proved too strong for St Mary’s Salesian and Therry Penola got over the line thanks to a bit of Jarrod Bannister magic. St Mary’s still remain an outside chance to creep into the finals, but will need to give Prahran-Assumption a walloping and hope the Panthers do the same to the Lions.

There were epic scenes across Gillon Oval as the final siren sounded with Brunswick NOBSPC 10 points clear of Old Paradians, much to the delight of the home crowd. NOBs shot out of the blocks Usain Bolt style to take a 25-point lead into the first break. As expected the Raiders hit back in the second to trail by only eight at the half. The remainder of the game was an intensely fought, tight tussle where both sides left nothing in the tank. In what was one of the most thrilling final quarters in recent memory, it was Gerrard Bence who had the final say, with his fifth and final goal coming after the siren to put an exclamation mark on what was a season-defining day for his club. Along with Bence, Lachie Ezard, Daniel Spiers and Cam Fox were all outstanding. For the Raiders, inspirational big man Adam Pattison gave it his absolute all and was ever so close to willing his club over the line, while Sean Miller was also exceptional.

Ivanhoe finally ended their disappointing six game losing streak with a solid win over Whitefriars.

It looked like the horrid recent form of the Hoes was set to continue as they went into quarter time with a 38-point deficit. After that the Hoes were untouchable as they rammed home 18 goals after the first break, lead by skipper Mitch Lovell who helped himself to 10 in a clear best on ground display. Reuben Blackmore-Moore and Liam Jacob were also strong contributors for the Hoes.

Andrew Daou did the business for the Friars with a bag of five and Michael Nitas was relentless with his attack on the ball. Both clubs will look to end the season on a high in round 18 having already locked in Division 1 action for 2017.

Old Geelong has gone a long way towards holding premiership favouritism after they outclassed Old Mentonians at Keysborough. Following a tight first quarter, the Ogs were able to kick away in the second and take a 35-point advantage into half-time. The Panthers were kept at arms length for the rest of the day as the Ogs finished with an emphatic 46-point victory. Callum Wood was once again the star for Old Geelong. The fearless forward finished with seven majors to make it 21 from his last four outings and 54 foals for the season. Hugh McKay was electric and Josh Hutley was another key contributor. For the Panthers, Kyle Conlon finished with two majors and lead from the front for four quarters and Tim Wilton battled tirelessly.

The Panthers who still sit on top thanks to their percentage will need a far better performance come finals time if they want to compete with the classy Ogs. PEGS playing fields hosted the inaugural pride match creating fantastic awareness for an issue close to the hearts of many, equality among all sexual orientations. St Mary’s were they visiting side and they needed a win to bust open the door to finals action, however PEGS were too good and ran away to a comfortable 46-point win. The Saints weren’t able to fully capitalise on the wind in the first quarter, while PEGS were in the second as they took a 37-point lead into half time. From then on the Saints weren’t able to wrestle their way back into the contest. Trent Skurrie continued his sublime form for the home side, finishing with six majors, Brad Jones collected four and Sahand Ghasimzadeh had one of his better games for the season. Michael Dolan left nothing on the field for the Saints. He was responsible for seven of their 10 TODAY SELECTIONS IN BOLD Old Geelong v PEGS Old Paradians v Ivanhoe Therry Penola v Old Mentonians Whitefriars v Brunswick NOBSPC St Mary’s Salesian v Prahran-Assumption

majors and was clearly their best.

Therry Penola received an almighty scare from Prahran-Assumption, leaving it right up until the final stanza to switch into gear with a brilliant eight-goal burst at Toorak Park. It was a closely fought affair for the first three quarters with the Two Blues looking the better of the sides, holding a 15-point lead at the last break. Lions stars Jarrod Egglestone and Jarrod Bannister paved the way for their win as they did what the great players do best – step up when it matters. Egglestone had countless centre clearances in the last and Bannister kicked three majors to take his tally to eight, despite the admirable efforts of Two Blues’ full back John Stocker. Two Blues’ skipper James Musster was back to his best, on-baller Harry Taylor was everywhere and John Robbins had plenty of opportunities in his haul of four goals and seven behinds. The Two Blues will be playing for pride this weekend as they aim to leave Division 1 on a high. While the Lions need to compete with the

DIVISION 1

It’s no surprise, given the way the season has played out, that the final round will decide the fate of a number of Division 1 combatants. All eyes will be on Ferndale Park and Fawkner Reserve as the Saints need to throw everything they have at the Two Blues in order to make up as much as 12% to topple Therry Penola who will be out to upset Old Mentonians and sure up their attendance in the finals series. Unfortunately the St Mary’s faithful, it is likely that they have too much ground to make up. Old Paradians will fancy their chances against Ivanhoe at Garvey Oval. I’m tipping a fairy tale finish for the Raiders who simply must win to avoid relegation. However, they are also relying on Brunswick NOBSPC to fall short against Whitefriars in a battle that could go either way. While the final encounter for Round 18 sees Old Geelong host PEGS in what will be a high intensity tune up before finals action for both sides.

UP FOR GRABS The penultimate round of the season made the finals picture no clearer, leaving positions two to four on the ladder still up for grabs.

ground. Ryan Pollard was gallant in defeat for the Bushrangers, with Jordan Canham their best target with three goals.

The Preston Bullants kept their chances of a second place finish alive as they came from behind to defeat Emmaus St Leos by 26 points at Bennettswood Sports Ground. Despite having nothing on the line, Emmaus St Leos started the brighter of the two sides with 5.4 to the Bullants 3.0 to lead by 16 points. Both sides continued their goal scoring ways as they added four goals each but two behinds for Preston saw the margin sit at 14 points. Both sides tightened their defence after the long break, as Preston slowed the Animals to one goal as they added two to have them in reach, still trailing by five points. Sadly, for Emmaus St Leos, their control of the game disappeared in the last and seven goals to two saw the Bullants run away with the points. Sean Calcedo was the Bullants best, with Jake Powell dangerous in front of goal with five majors. Chris Beluszar and Daniel Hill kicked four apiece for the Animals, as Jonathan O’Connor was their best in defeat for the second straight week.

Despite a slow start, Bulleen/Templestowe defeated Richmond Central by 74 points, inflicting the Snakes their 15th loss of the year at Kevin Bartlett Reserve. The game started in a tight fashion with three goals to two in the favour of the Bullants to lead by six points. Bulleen/ Templestowe’s defence remained steadfast as they only gave up one goal in the second, but couldn’t add more than two themselves to only extend their lead to 14 points. Still in the hunt for their first win and in position to give themselves a chance, Richmond Central’s leaky defence returned in the second half as they allowed five Bullants goals to their two to see the margin swell to 30 points at three quarter time. The momentum remained in the final quarter as the Bullants slammed on eight goals to one to put more pain upon the Snakes season. Leith Wallis kept up his good form with a best on ground performance, with the damage up forward done by David Dakin and Michael Pace with four goals each. Paul Holland was the Snakes only multiple goal kicker with two goals and Patrick Boyle battled hard all day.

There is now only one percent between fourth and fifth place as MHSOB travelled to Doncaster Reserve to defeat Yarra Valley OB by 29 points.

Needing a win to stay in the finals hunt, MHSOB were the stronger side out of the gate and putting a 19-point gap between themselves and Yarra Valley OB after a five goal to two quarter. The Bushrangers completely controlled the second quarter but inaccuracy stopped them pushing away from MHSOB, as they kicked 3.7 to 0.2 to lead by four points at half time. Coming out of the break, the Unicorns unlike the Bushrangers did take advantage of their opportunities kicking seven goals from their eight shots to two goals for Yarra Valley OB to lead by 25 points at the final change. In the final quarter both sides had success in front of goal with MHSOB getting the best of it with five goals to four to extend the lead and secure the victory. Nathan Hawking was unstoppable up forward for the Unicorns with six goals, as Anthony Svirskis was the best on the 18

St Johns OC overcame a quarter time deficit and then held on for a four-point victory over West Brunswick at Ransford Oval. With the possibility of taking first place finish, West Brunswick were stronger from the first bounce adding 3.3 while holding St Johns OC to 1.4 to lead by 11 points by quarter time. After the low scoring first quarter, the two sides combined for 11 goals with six for St Johns saw the game tied at the half time break. Following the break, the JOC’s kept their momentum going to lead by 18 points at three quarter time, adding four goals to one for the TODAY SELECTIONS IN BOLD MHSOB v West Brunswick St Johns OC v Richmond Central Bulleen/Templestowe v Yarra Valley OB Preston Bullants v Eltham Collegians Emmaus St Leos v Bye

quarter. They would add two more in the last but allowed four Magpie goals to have a nail biting a finish that would see St Johns OC hold on. Daniel Abou-Karroum was the best on ground for St Johns OC, with Trent Edwards slamming through five goals. Bill Irving and Zac Tisdale kicked three each for West Brunswick, with Chris Simpson battling hard to get them over the line.

The final round sees three games that will have an effect on the makeup of the top four. The game of the round sees MHSOB host West Brunswick at Melbourne High School with the Unicorns needing a win to make finals, whereas the Magpies need a win to secure second place. Yarra Valley OB travel to Ted Ajani Reserve to face Bulleen/Templestowe with a win nearly securing fourth place as long as MHSOB don’t win by 60 points more than the Bushrangers. Preston Bullants host Eltham Collegians at W.R. Ruthven Reserve, with a win and a West Brunswick loss securing second place.

The final game sees minor premiers St Johns OC host Richmond Central at Thomas Carroll Reserve, as the Snakes have their last chance to prevent a winless season. Emmaus St Leos season is over as they have the Bye and have no effect possible on the ladder.

PENULTIMATE ROUND SERVES UP THE GOODS Round 17 answered one question; the six teams heading to the Finals are set.

The Vultures and La Trobe continue their hot form, Glen Eira bounce back after a defeat, Albert Park grits out a win playing for pride, and Hawthorn are smashing scoring records is what abounds in Round 17. Lets check out the games...

UHS-VU DEF. CANTERBURY A first quarter barrage has propelled the Vultures to a victory as they defeated the Cobras by 27 points, 110-83, at Brens Oval and secured fourth place in the process. From the opening bounce UHS-VU were determined to put the result beyond doubt as they booted an impressive six goals to Canterbury’s two and springboard to their eighth straight victory hitting form at the best time of the year. Nick Rowland put in a best on ground performance while Kynan Barnes slotted four majors in the win.

After an explosive opening to season 2016 the Cobras found the second half of the season tough going and have now been eliminated from the Finals, next week’s final game against Parkside will be the final hit out of an inconsistent 2016 but are assured of another season in Division 3.

ALBERT PARK DEF. ELSTERNWICK The Falcons have added to the woes of Elsternwick handing them their ninth straight defeat, this time by 20 points, 88-68, at Elsternwick Park. With both teams playing for pride, Albert Park missing out on Finals footy and Elsternwick heading down at season’s end, the teams came out swinging in an entertaining first half where the Wickers clung to a narrow 2-point lead heading into the main break. However it was a third quarter where Albert Park kicked two goals and an astonishing eight behinds where they wrestled back the lead from Elsternwick for good en route to their seventh win of the season. James Brick had another man of the match performance and arguably has secured the Falcons player of the year. For the Wickers James Christie lead the resistance but it wasn’t enough for the home team.

LA TROBE UNI DEF. STH MELBOURNE DIST. La Trobe continue their stellar recent form at the business time of the year as they were too strong for South Melbourne defeating them by 53 points, 11158, recording their twelfth win in the past thirteen 20

games. Showcasing the best defence in the division the Trobers were tenacious holding the Swans to a single point in not only the first quarter but also the third quarter while they continued to pile on the goals. Bryce Dowler recorded six majors in the blow-out win with Michael Burrowes dominating all game long. Rory Kennedy was valiant in defeat for South Melbourne that grips to fifth place ahead their final game against Swinburne. La Trobe’s Mitch Gleeson looks to have sewn up the goalkicking race in the victory finishing with another three goals, moving to 69 on the season and extend his lead to seven with only a game to go.

POWER HOUSE DEF. PARKSIDE Knowing a win would secured them Finals football Power House were on a mission as they thrashed the Red Devils by 85 points, 120-35, at Pitcher Park.

The visitors exploded out of the gate scoring 11 goals to four in the opening half understanding that it needed a complete team effort to gain the victory against the pesky Parkside squad, the squad responded with 11 individual goal-kickers chipping in for the win. Darragh Leonard and Barry Cox were among the best for Power House while Michael Muir and Darren Gresham tried all day for Parkside playing with a nothing the lose mentality. The victory extends Power House’s winning streak to five straight games, and with a potential first round Finals match-up against either Hawthorn or Glen Eira, their hot form could cause some concern for the top teams. We shall wait and see.

HAWTHORN DEF. AQUINAS OC Another week another thrashing by Hawthorn. This week it was Aquinas who felt the immense scoring pressure of the Hawks as they suffered a 137-point demolition, 186-46, at Rathmines Road Reserve.

The impressive 27-goal onslaught by the league leaders, including Sam Gold and Ross McDermott each recording bags of six majors, and 10 individual goal-kickers that has seen Hawthorn smash the Division 3 scoring record.

2336 points from 18 games, this season Hawthorn have flown past that already scoring 2467 points with a game in hand! Can any team stop them?

Hawthorn and their scoring wrath with the winner enjoying a massive advantage.

Glen Eira def. Swinburne University

PREVIEW

Glen Eira returned to their winning ways with a 119-point thumping of Swinburne University, 17051, at St. James Park. A team that was evidently frustrated after last week’s first loss of the season, the Saints removed all talk of dropping two straight games as they booted nine goals and held Swinny to a single behind in the first quarter dominating the contest. However the Saints were not finished marching just yet, adding to the woes of the Razorbacks slotting another nine goals in the third quarter while holding Swinny scoreless. A dominant display of football. 13 goal-kickers all added to the enormous score and the incredible defensive effort from the team on a mission. Next up for Glen Eira is

THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2016

The final six are set, although the battles at the top and for fifth continue to rage as we head into the final round of the season. La Trobe and UHS-VU will look to get through their last round matchups injury free and should continue their winning form. Power House could leap South Melbourne with a win over the Wickers, while the Swans host the pesky Swinny. However the major match-up is between Glen Eira and Hawthorn that will see the winner secure the number 1 spot in a mouthwatering match-up and potentially a grand final preview.

DIVISION 4

MASALA/BULLS . . . . ALMOST Four out of four tipping this week but, no-one would have predicted the incredible margins in three of the them. Masala and North Brunswick certainly took it up to their opposition but, fell short. Chadstone finished their disappointing season with another 3 figure defeat and Manningham got exposed. To last week’s games:

MASALA DEF BY POINT COOK Masala hosting Point Cook saw the Tigers kick the match off with a bang, leading by two goals at the end of the first quarter. Coming out strong, as Point Cook does, it was a nine goal to five second quarter which had the Tigers 26 points down going in to half time. After a big rev up during the break, the Tigers came out strong and won the third quarter by a goal and were trailing by 12 points at three quarter time. To the credit of the Doggies, they came out and kicked seven goals to three in the final and ran out winners by seven goals. Tigers Captain, Ben Nugent kicked 3 goals, Josh Kyle returning after a hamstring strain, booted 2 goals. For the Doggies. William Dawson kicked 7 for the 2nd week in a row and Backman, Mason Kip (1) was judged best afield. Point Cook only made 2 changes from last week, expect more for next week against the Bulls.

NORTH BRUNSWICK DEF BY ELEY PARK Another match that almost caused an upset, was that of a valiant North Brunswick hosting Eley Park. Mathematically, this was the Bulls last hurrah and they certainly gave it their all. Hitting the early lead after the 1st quarter, the wind was a factor as the Sharks hit back with a 6-3 2nd quarter that saw them claim a 4pt lead into the long break. The wind assisted the Bulls to bounce back in a scrappy third quarter but, come the 4th, the Sharks simply had too much class and strength, running out 14 pt victors. William Croagh was the Bulls best and seems to enjoy playing the Sharks, making it in the “bests” only when he plays them. Pat 22

Notaro (4 goals) and Pete Butler (3) AGAIN caused headaches for the backline. For the Sharks, Dave Viola had 4, Brent Christie and Andrew Zaicos each had 3 whilst, Alistair Renshaw had his best game for the year, earning BOG honours

BOX HILL NORTH DEF CHADSTONE Chaddy’s last game for the year, saw them venture 15 minutes down Elgar Rd, to take on Box Hill North. After claiming the lead for the first 8 minutes after some horror kicking from Bocky, the Synners then just stopped or the Demons put their pedal to the metal. The Demons theme was run and share and that’s exactly what all 22 who took the field did. Standout performance to young Jordan Gasparrini who chimed in with 4 great goals from outside the arc. We always knew you could do it. BOG, Captain Dan Penny led from the front and kicked 14 goals. Rhys Mehlstaubler impressed with his hard run and carry of half back. For Chaddy, Daniel “Daffy” Cumming was their best, taking hangers all around the ground and 2016 B&F, David “Doug” Fernandez also never stopped trying.

WESTBOURNE DEF MANNINGHAM If any statement was made over the weekend, it was Westbourne in their last home game for the year Vs. Manningham. Holding the Cobras to no goals for three quarters is almost unheard of but, the Warriors were commanding and unwavered all game. With no Collins or Iqbal to speak of, that did not matter as Justin Johns (6 goals), BOG Nicholas Schiano (6) and Charles Hunter (5) certainly picked up the slack. Manningham didn’t seem to have any answers in a disappointing effort against the league leaders. Only Ben Russian and Matt Colvin TODAY SELECTIONS IN BOLD Manningham v Masala Mt. Lilydale v Westbourne Point Cook v North Brunswick Eley Park v Box Hill North

were able to put it between the big sticks. The Warriors are still undefeated and are just one win away to complete a stellar year so far.

performance will mean the world. But, it will be a Westbourne win.

PREVIEW

Point Cook (2nd) survived a scare and may appear to be vulnerable. That’s what North Brunswick (5th) are hoping for anyway. Point Cook at home.

LAST ROUND and there’s a lot to like, looking at what’s to come. The top 4 are set and so are their positions but, there some interesting match-ups.

To this week’s games:

Lastly, Eley Park (3rd) host Box Hill North (7th).

The Demons would be happy with last week’s performance but, this day will belong to the Sharks.

Manningham (6th) need to forget last week and have an opportunity to finish the season on a high as they host Masala (8th). Masala were fantastic last week and have the Cobras in their sights.

Masala. Just.

Chadstone (9th) finished their season last week and have the bye.

My Match of the Round this week is definitely the potential finals preview match between Mt. Lilydale (4th) and Westbourne (1st). Ladder positions won’t change but, a strong Rams

THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2016

GRILL’D RISING STAR 2016 HARRY HILL — OLD BRIGHTON GRAMMARIANS Harry Hill arrived at Old Brighton Grammarians this year, after a decorated career at Brighton Grammar School where he was Captain of the School and a dual premiership player. Harry‘s reputation preceded him and when he weaved through a pack and goaled for the third time against the Rovers in Round 3, to set up a seven goal lead at half-time, we knew we were looking at our next champion. Harry has maintained our excitement by playing every senior match in the mid-field, appearing in the best player list in most of them. He has already kicked 17 goals and set up just as many for his team-mates. Harry is a classy footballer, whose skills set him apart from most other players.

He is precise and efficient on both sides of his body, and his instinctive feel for the game enables him to make quick decisions under pressure. His penetrating passes often release team-mates from tight situations or set them up to score. He is a strong mark for his size, combining sound judgement of the ball drop with a handy leap. Consequently, he has already become a focus of opponents’ attention as they try to limit his influence. Harry’s consistent form led to his selection in the VAFA Under-19 side earlier in the season and he responded by winning the award for best on the ground. Harry is understandably revered by his peers and many of them have followed him to the Club to continue their success and forge their futures in the Red and Blue. Harry is crucial to the future of the OBGFC where his courage and taste for the contest will undoubtedly see him lead and become one of the VAFA’s most valued players.

RETRO

Geoff Reilley

@GeoffreyReilley

5 YEARS AGO – 2011 In D1 Section Whitefriars had their destiny in their own hands and they made sure of a first semi final berth when they led Peninsula Old Boys the whole game before the final score of 14.9 to 11.13. Best – Mattinson, Power, Massarotti, Hill, Garreffa, Scannell (Whitefriars) and S Grigg, T Grigg, Fisher, Payze, Barbour, Wood (Peninsula).

Banyule (top) met Parkdale Vultures (2nd) but the win to Banyule (10.19 to 8.13) meant no change to their respective positions and they would fight it out again the following week in the second semi final. Best – Walsh, Truefeldt, Shepherd, Green, Driscoll, Cusack (Banyule) and S Kelleher, Redmond, Chapman, Grant, Andrews, Graham (Parkdale).

In Division 2 Glen Eira would go into the finals series very confident having only lowered their colours twice during the home and away season. They warmed up for the second semi final with a sound win over St Marys 20.16 to 10.12. Best – King (4), O’Donnell, Higgins, Broadhead, Waras, Carstensen (GE) and Rose, Morsello, Dwyer, Williams, Schoenmakers, Callan (St Marys).

In Division 3 Prahran/Assumption were going to be very difficult to beat with an unblemished record for the season to date. As a ‘warm-up’ for the finals, the two blues easily accounted for Ivanhoe, 24.9 to 12.6 and their kicking for goal was excellent. Best – Cristoforo (8), Pell (4), Furness, Chapman, Sleight, Costin (Prahran) and Close (7), Harris, Ealey, fort, Scoble, Plowman (Ivanhoe).

Hot favourites in Division 4, St Francis Xavier, cantered to victory 26.15 to North Brunswick 14.8.

Best – Day (4), Scott (4), Van Dam, Lenders, Burns, Leworthy (StF-X) and Mair, Zuidema (5), Brayshaw, Ghasimzadeh, Jeffrey, Quarmby (Nth B).

Elsternwick’s Aaron Foster joined the club as a mature aged player in 1999 and he reached his 200th game being noted as a prolific goal kicker for the club.

St Bernards’ Chris Mitchell also reached 200 games having first played as an 18 year old in 1999.

10 YEARS AGO – 2006 In A Section Old Haileybury stayed one game clear on top of the ladder after defeating Old Scotch comfortably, 16.9 to 8.11 with only round 18 to be played. Old Scotch were now vulnerable and would need to win the final round to remain in the four. Scotch kept with Haileybury in the first quarter but Haileybury piled on 7.3 to 3 behinds in the second quarter before going on to the easy victory.

Best – Steinfort, McIntyre, Mackenzie, McLauchlan, 44

Mohammad, Ford (OH) and Pugsley, Troon, Gerstman (3), Barton, Brooke (OH). The goalkicking award in A Section may well have been decided with Andy Cultrera (Old Trinity) leading with 66, 15 ahead of his nearest rival Matt Handley (Old Xaverians). With Old Trinity out of the finals’ race and one round to go only Matt Handley would have a chance to take the award as Old Xaverians were a chance to also have two finals matches.

Old Brighton were on top with one round to play and their win over Uni Blacks in round 17 by 11 points placed the Blacks under the hammer in round 18 as they may need to win to make the finals. The match was close throughout the first half but Old Brighton started to get on top in the third quarter and maintained their hold on the game winning 13.12 to 12.7. Best – Pirrie (6), Phelan, Dickerson, M Gadsden, A Edge, Ewert (OB) and O’Connell, Purcell, Shaw, Jess, Van Kempen, Napier.

Caulfield Grammarians full forward, Brett Sinclair, remained 6 goals ahead of Old Brighton’s Adam Pirrie in the race for the McKinnon Sports Medicine Sharpshooters Award with both having finals to continue their rivalry.

Milestones were recorded for Sean Coote (Beaumaris), Andrew Docker (Caulfield Grammarians) and Richard Foote (Caulfield Grammarians), all three playing their 100th game.

20 YEARS AGO – 1996 In D Section, scribe Ken Bremner had suggested the previous week there were many changes possible in the final round. The upshot of it all was that St Leos replaced Old Camberwell in the four when St Leos defeated Kew and Old Camberwell lost to Parkside. Beaumaris slipped to third place after losing narrowly to Southbank. Parkside and St Johns Old Collegians consolidated their places in D Section with respective wins over Old Camberwell and Caulfield Grammarians. Monash Blues through the defeat of Beaumaris and in turn with their own victory over Uni Reds put themselves into the second semi to play Caulfield Grammarians. Oh the beauty of the promotion/relegation system of the sections. There were many low scores in the round, the exception being Monash Blues with 17.24 against Uni Reds. Best – Newman, Baker (3), Ford (6), Logan, Kiers, Carman (Monash) and Heenan, James, Eastman, Jackson, Frisby, Wharf (Uni Reds).

St Leos congratulated Jack Cronin on reaching 250 games. A terrific worker on and off the field, everyone at the club would have been delighted with Jack’s milestone.

The VAFA Umpires Association held their Annual Dinner at the Carlton Football Club and amongst THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2016

the awards were – Brad Nash, former Ormond premiership player and best and fairest (1987) being given the most improved goal umpire award and Mark Bushfield winning the Bob Dunston Award for services to the VAFAUA. President, Richard Simon (currently Ormond AFC President) had to take over Bob’s speech due to the emotion of the award! The Golden Whistle Award went to Matt McCrohan.

30 YEARS AGO – 1986 In round 18, it was a big game between Banyule and Old Haileybury to decide fourth place and Banyule, at home, held Old Haileybury out, winning 7.14 to 6.10. Best – Legge, Fraumano, Hoare Gilham, Attard, Scullin (Banyule) and Scaunich, Shand, Gerny, Paul, Snowball, Brewer (Haileybury).

In D Section, West Brunswick needed to win to avoid relegation and faced up to Heatherton but with home ground advantage. Heatherton led at quarter time and were still 3 goals up at half time in a low scoring match. The Westies came back in the third quarter but Heatherton drew away again in the last to win 9.10 to 5.10 and West Brunswick would be bound for E Section in 1987. Best – T Easey, Rooney, Howells, Mott, A Coffey and Pope (Heatherton). West Brunswick were very disappointed and failed to name their best.

In E Section, Elsternwick hosted State Bank to see who would earn a spot in the second semi final.

Elsternwick had a terrific first quarter kicking 9.4 to 2.4 but they had enjoyed a noticeable wind advantage. State Bank kicked three quick goals with the wind in the second term but the Wicks kicked three late ones to maintain control of the match.

By three quarter time the difference was 8 goals in Elsternwick’s favour and they cantered home 17.15 to 11.14 and second place was theirs. Best – Matthes, Colls, A Contin, Thompson, Southall, Bean (Elst) and Hargreaves (4), Matherson, Walpole, Curtin, Cloke, Connelly (State Bank).

40 YEARS AGO – 1976 In A Section, Uni Blues regained their place in the top four thanks to Ormond’s big win over Old Trinity who had displaced the Blues the previous round. The Blues played their part by smashing their fellow, blue academics from Monash University, 23.20 to 8.16.

Mark Tyquin kicked 11 goals for the Blues and was aided by Moore, Carne, Hindle, Vivian (4) and Forge.

Monash named as their best – Hopkins, Sweetland, Burgin, curtain, Black and Olds.

Rick Sykes, Power House captain for the past five seasons, played his 150th game when he came up against Old Melburnians. Rick had represented the State for the past two seasons and was Vice Captain THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2016

of the 1975 squad. Rick joined Power House in 1969 and played a season and a half in the under 19’s before being promoted to the senior team where he played the majority of his games at full forward. Rick went on to become a member of the VAFA Executive following his distinguished playing career.

Old Scotch managed to win their first ever game at Queen’s Park, Geelong but failed to spoil the festivities of the Geelong Amateur’s Past Players’ Day attended by some real ‘old-timers’ – first captain/ coach Vic Proffit (1926-30), Ewen Laird (1926-28), Ray Fidge (1929-33), Pat Wheeler (1928-39) and Billy King (1930-31). Congratulations were extended to Bob Poulton (1937), Peter Robinson (1965) and Phillip Marshall (1967) for their wonderful organisation of the event.

President of the VAFA Umpires’ Association was Ken Jorgenson, a former Commonwealth Bank player for 5 seasons who had a distinguished playing career during that time and who had gained interstate selection in his first season as a player, representing the State on four occasions.

50 YEARS AGO – 1966 In A Section, Caulfield Grammarians’ high marking, long kicking style under the tutelage of coach John Wilson countered the short game used by Coburg and Caulfield’s win clinched their place in the top four, their first appearance at this level since before the second world war. Coburg kept the pressure on Caulfield for the majority of the match but could not effectively counter Caulfield’s style and the final margin was 12 points. Best – Cayzer, Williams, Hore, Ward (5), Tom Tootell, Smith (Caulfield) and Parkes, Scanlon (4), Lawson, Callaghan, O’Brien, Dumayne (Coburg).

60 YEARS AGO – 1956 In A Section, Uni Blues had to win the last game to have a chance of making the top four. It would be difficult and a real challenge as they were to face up to second placed Coburg. The Blues started brilliantly in the first quarter and raced to a 4 goal lead at half time but the Coburg boys bounced back in the third quarter to draw within a kick before the Blues kicked a late one to take a two goal lead into the last change.

The final term was all Blues and they added another three goals while Coburg could only accumulate three behinds. Final score 12.13 to 6.10, a really good win for the Blues. Unfortunately for the Blues, when the other scores came through, Old Melburnians had won easily against Ormond, 12.26 to 6.13 and had held their place in the four, the Blues therefore missing out.

Beaumaris gave the ladderleading Old Xaverians something to think about heading into the business end of the season as they ran out 67-point victors at Banksia Reserve.

A six-goal to two opening term paved the path for the emphatic win as Benjamin O’Brien (three) and Sean Doherty (two) led the way on the scoreboard. Andreas Baruhas starred for the second consecutive week for the third-placed Sharks, while Michael McKay did his utmost to stem the flow of goals as the Xavs best player.

Six unanswered goals in the first term helped Old Scotch to a comprehensive 50-point win against De La Salle at Camberwell Sports Ground. Despite outscoring the Cardinals in the second and keeping them goalless in the final quarter, De La were unable to close the gap as Scotch used the scoring end to put on another five in the third.

Luke Daggian showcased his elite credentials with a second consecutive best-on-ground performance for the Cardinals, while Dean Krelle kicked three goals for De La. St Bernard’s proved far too strong for University Blues as they inflicted a 70-point demolition at Crawford Oval. Patrick Martin had his most impactful game for the season with four goals for the Snow Dogs, while Liam Weightman chipped in with three. Henry Bennett and William Lawrence fought hard as the Blues two best units.

St Kevin’s refused to take a backward step in their clash against University Blacks, romping their way to a 156-point victory at TH King Oval. Seven unanswered goals in the first term set the scene for the monster win as Andrew Clough backed up his six majors from last week with an even more impressive bag of eight. Liam Mahoney (four), Cameron Hodges (three) and Samuel Barnett (three) played their part on the scoreboard for SKOB, while Edward King (one) fought bravely and was rewarded as the Blacks’ best.

HOLMESGLEN U 19 SECTION 2 Second placed Old Melburnians made an enormous statement on Saturday afternoon, handing ladder leaders Parkdale only their second loss of the season. The result ensures OM’s will enter their finals campaign with an air of confidence, and their form line is impressive despite last week’s disappointing loss to Caulfield Gr. The match was evenly poised at the first change, both teams winning their share of the ball and playing an attractive style of football. The middle two quarters belonged to OM’s, who kicked nine goals to three in that period to open up a match winning break at the final change. The home side eventually ran out comfortable 27-point winners.

Louis Myer was on song for the victors, kicking four majors in a solid display. Alex Macfarlane was also prominent in the win.

Old Carey notched their sixth win of the season, inflicting another loss upon a competitive Whitefriars side at Carey Sport Complex. With both teams well and truly out of finals contention this season, there was only pride to play for. Both sides knew this might be their last opportunity for the season to take four points home.

Whitefriars started full of dare, taking chances and moving the ball freely to open up a two goal buffer at the first change. A slight adjustment at quarter time by the Panther hierarchy turned the match on its head, as the home side dominated the second quarter. The match went to script thereafter as Old Carey put their foot on the gas to run out convincing 50-point winners.

In other results Fitzroy were too good for a much improved Old Trinity, and Caulfield too strong for a faltering St Bedes/Mentone side.

U19 SEC. 3 Old Brighton and Mazenod played out a thriller at Central Reserve on Saturday, with Old Brighton coming from the clouds to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat. Mazenod were in control Holmesglen UNDER 19 Section 3 Hampton Rovers v Old Brighton Williamstown CYMS v Ormond Collegians v Old Ivanhoe Marcellin v Mazenod

of proceedings for a large chunk of the match, failing to convert some key chances to score in a third quarter which they dominated. The Tonners showed a lot of heart to claw their way back into the match and wrestle the momentum back in their favour. Anthony Zimmerman starred in his first match of the season for the victors, kicking four crucial goals at key moments in the contest.

Matt Freeman was also prominent in the win.

Collegians won a cracking contest against Ormond in what might be a preview of a finals matchup in the weeks to come. The two sides are neck and neck on the ladder, and on Saturday this was reflected on the field as it took until the final siren to separate them - three points in Collegians favour. Cameron Tennant was the match winner for Collegians, booting four goals and claiming best afield honours. Matt Perry was his usual efficient self for Ormond, kicking four majors of his own and doing his best to drag his side over the line.

In other results Hampton Rovers smashed Old Ivanhoe, whilst Williamstown never got out of second gear to beat Marcellin comfortably.

UNDER 19 SECTION 4 Monash Blues hosted UHS-VU last weekend down at Frearson Oval with what turned out to be a low scoring game for both sides. UHS-VU supplied the pressure around the ball all day with Cameron Craig getting amongst the action helping UHS-vu bring home the win. In what looked to be a onesided game in the first quarter between PEGS and Preston Bullants, the bullants got right back in it and by half time both teams were neck and neck.

Max Tonna and Jordan Erougian both kicking four goals for the game helping PEGS hold the lead in the second half and finishing the game off with a victory. Old Haileybury dug deep last weekend to play a competitive match against Peninsula. Tory Taylor kicking three goals for Peninsula keeping them in the game but Old Haileybury came out stronger than ever in the last half and took home the win. AJAX took on Therry Penola with both Holmesglen UNDER 19 Section 4 Monash Blues v PEGS Therry Penola v UHS-VU Old Haileybury v AJAX Preston Bullants v Peninsula

teams fighting hard all game. Saul David Williams, Adam Rushford and Joel Burston landed in the best for AJAX helping their team get the win.

UNDER 19 SECTION 5 Mazenod coming out strong from the get go leading the whole game against Old Paradians who tried to put up a strong fight. With James Deegan kicking five and Tom Riley kicking four goals helped Mazenod come home with the win. MHSOB showing their strengths last weekend when they took on La Trobe with Ashan Wijayakumara kicking an impressive seven goals and both Paul Colman and Charlie Franklyn landing in the best for the game. Parkside took on St Johns in what was a very one sided from the start with Parkside dominating the play all game. St Johns kept the pressure up as best as they could but it was no match for Parkside in the end with them coming home with the victory.

Oakleigh hosted Aquinas at their home ground in what was a close game from the first bounce.

James Reid kicking four goals and Jonathan Kerr getting amongst the action helped Aquinas get the win. With it being only a few points separating both St Bedes/Mentone Tigers and De La Salle all game both teams were eager to get the win. Harry Bowen, Mitchell Riley and Nick O’Sullivan from De La Salle getting amongst the action and winning contests all game helped put De La Salle in the lead in the last quarter and run home with the win.

UMPIRES CORNER

@VAFAUA

ANOTHER MILESTONE!

RUBBER DUCKIE

This weekend Peter Teasdale steps out for his 300th VAFA game, officiating South Melbourne Districts vs Swinburne University. With 400 matches under his belt at the Southern Football League prior to joining the VAFA, he has also hit the outstanding milestone of 700 career games across the field and boundary.

We asked Teasa about his career highlights so far, with his B section and two C section grand finals featuring highly. Teasa also represented the VAFA in a state game, and ran the boundary with Santo Caruso, with Kevin ‘Chillie’ Segota and Bernie Jephson in the goals, in two EJ Whitten Legends games.

Teasa went on to say that the best part of umpiring are the friends that you make, keeping fit, and enjoying the social aspect of the after match.

Congratulations Teasa on this magnificent milestone, and we hope there’s many more to come!

We know that umpires should thoroughly prepare for matches, and all umpires attending Melbourne University Oval this season have been packing the boots. But we think president Greg Rolfe took this a little far after being told that the conditions at the oval were ‘good for ducks’ – he brought his yellow rubber duckie along.

There is a photo of the duckie enjoying a postmatch shower with Rolfey – but for the good of the readership we won’t be publishing.

NEW LIFE MEMBERS At our July Monthly Meeting the membership voted to induct two new life members into the VAFAUA. Santo Caruso and Simon Stokes become our 110th and 111th Life Members, and will be formally recognised out our Pre-Finals Dinner this Monday. We will be writing more about both of these outstanding members in the Umpires Corner in the coming weeks, but for now, congratulations to you both, and we look forward to celebrating with you on Monday.

COMMITTEE ELECTION MEETING Nominations for VAFAUA committee positions for 2017 have now closed, and our Annual Election Meeting will be held on Thursday the 25th of August following the monthly meeting.

This is an essential meeting for the UA, and all members should be in attendance. Not to mention being the last training night before the finals begin…

GRAND FINALS, 2016 Preliminary Final Sunday saw the two games played in good football conditions, which enriched the standard of play. Today we will see the climax of the season with the playing of the two Grand Finals. A significant feature will be the lack of an Old Xaverian team on the field. For over a generation Xaverian teams have dominated this competition. Now the King is dead. Long live the King. Does a new era dawn today?

REVIEW OF PRELIMINARY FINALS SECTION 1.

St Francis Xavier started the better against Old Xaverians and built an early lead, which could have been greater but for nervous inaccuracy.

At the first change, St Francis held an eight point advantage. The second quarter saw the St Francis inaccuracy continue. However their defenders rose to their challenge and kept the “Crocodiles” to a single goal for the quarter. At half time, St Francis held the lead by fifteen points. Ascendancy in the vital third quarter lay with Old Xaverians whose five goals to three for the quarter brought them to within five points of the lead at the last change. Thus the stage was set for a memorable final quarter, which developed into a low scoring affair with each team kicking only one goal. Again St Francis inaccuracy detracted from their playing advantage although their nine extra scoring shots enabled them to defeat Old Xaverians by nine points. St Francis cause was again well served by the consistent play of Brendan O’Hara and Nathaniel Welsh, who each kicked two goals.

SECTION 2.

West Brunswick earned the right to challenge Old Geelong for the Premiership when they led throughout against Monash Blues, who finished thirty two points in arrears. West Brunswick opened an early lead and held Monash scoreless in the first quarter. More dominance by the 58

“Magpies” continued through the second quarter so that at half time, West Brunswick held a match winning lead of twenty nine points. The third quarter saw a Monash revival as the Blues kicked four unanswered goals to trail by only seven points at the last change. Monash were not able to sustain their pressure in the final quarter when West Brunswick regained the ascendency by kicking five goals to one as Monash resistance faltered. The West Brunswick winning margin was thirty two points. Up forward Aaron Thompson was their star with six goals.

PREVIEW OF GRAND FINALS SECTION 1.

Today, opponents Hawthorn and St Francis, each has had a home victory against the other during the Season. Hawthorn won by twenty one points in Round 2 after holding St Francis goalless for over a half. Only a fourth quarter revival saved St Francis from a big defeat. In Round 6 on a windy Beaconsfield day, St Francis triumphed by ten points. There is no doubt that St Francis have improved as the season has progressed.

Player shortage plus the “tyranny of distance” have mitigated against team success in the past.

Nothing succeeds like success and St Francis has shown marked improvement as the season has progressed.

Each side has multiple avenues to goal so each set of defenders must be aware of their opposition movements throughout the game. I favour Hawthorn simply because they are the defending and minor premiers, who will jealously guard their hard earned premiership favouritism. Last week’s game on the big ground may well have taken the edge off the St Francis fitness, so that as the game progresses, their running players could tire. I select Hawthorn to win but only after a titanic struggle.

SECTION 2 THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2016

The two best teams in the Section will meet for fifth time this season in today’s Grand Final. West Brunswick won in Round 8 by twenty five points and in Round 12 by fifteen points. On the other hand Old Geelong was victorious in Round 3 by thirty points and in the second semi final by twenty five points. Spectators can expect a dour struggle as the game progresses. I favour Old Geelong for two reasons; they rested last Sunday while West Brunswick played Monash Blues. In addition Old Geelong players are more accustomed to playing on a big ground (Como Park) whereas West Brunswick are used to the more confined spaces of the Ransford Oval.
