VAFA MULTICULTURAL ROUND This weekend is multicultural round in the AFL and a great opportunity to focus on the efforts of VAFA clubs and what we can do in the future to assist different communities experiencing the great game of Australian Rules.

Majak Daw, Bachar Houli, Harry O’Brien, Ahmed Saad, Leigh Montagna and Israel Folau. These Ambassadors will work one day a week on specific projects and are role models within many multicultural communities.

In the VAFA we have various segments whose participants are from one nationality or religion and all of our clubs have players who are from various backgrounds. This week on the VAFA website we have highlighted some of these players individually but there are thousands more in our community.

On Tuesday, I attended the launch of AFL Vic’s multicultural round where Uni Blues identity and current General Manager provided information on the Victoria’s future growth patterns. It is projected that Victoria’s growth in the next 20 years will be 1.7 million and of these over one million will be from overseas migration. This highlights the importance for our clubs to engage the multi cultural community. Of these over 90% are expected to settle in Melbourne, making overseas migration the main driver of Melbourne’s population growth.

It is nineteen years since Nicky Winmar lifted up his jumper to the Collingwood crowd at Victoria Park that first highlighted the racial issues in the game.

Since then we should all feel proud of the stance the AFL has taken against racism on and off the field. It has been the leading sporting organisation in the country and should continue to play a leading role in making sure that everybody has an equal chance of playing football.

I proudly consider that the VAFA is the leading light in community football and it up to every one of our club leaders to show the way. As Irish philosopher Edmund Burke is attributed to have said: All that is necessary for evil to prosper is for good men to do nothing. Our club leaders cannot let any discrimination occur be it religious, race or sex.

The AFL has produced an enlightening DVD featuring a number of AFL players and sportsmen speaking out about the issues they have confronted both inside and outside the porting arena. This DVD will be distributed to all clubs and I recommend that they show this too all players and officials at their club.

At the breakfast, AFL National Community Engagement Manager and coach of Beaumaris in Premier B, Jason Mifsud, led a panel which included Sudanese born North Melbourne player Majak Daw. He stated: Everyone involved in Australian football should feel rightfully proud of the role the game has played in building bridges across many cultures - over many years. More than any other vehicle, football has this power. Footy provides the spirit to bring people together - despite our differences – so as a fan turning up to watch your team do battle this weekend, take a minute to look at the magnificent cultural diversity - both in the crowd and on the ground and remember that this is a game for everyone.

The AFL recently announced the appointment of the 10 Multicultural Ambassadors Nic Naitanui, Joel Wilkinson, Karmichael Hunt, David Rodan,

THE TURN FOR HOME In trying conditions across most grounds tactical football was limited to thumping the ball forward or locking it in. The centre wicket area coating the midfielders in the familiar mid-winter muddy look, that makes a shower at half time a serious option for some. Not so for the hardened men of Premier. Many who follow amateur football suggest you shouldn’t anoint a premiership favourite until all teams have been played once.

At the halfway point we have more information at our disposal to check where the preseason oracle has lead us astray.

De La Salle travelled to the Snakepit and someone remarked when reviewing the quarter time score, that it must not have rained in West Essendon the past week as St Bernards piled on seven goals in the opening stanza. De La Salle had a similar lead at half time the previous week against Old Xavs and were overrun, so they knew it was possible it was just about finding a way. A three goal to one second quarter reduced the deficit 17 points at the long break. A five-goal-to-four third term had onlookers believing in the blue and gold with half an hour of football to play. However the Bernies are made of sterner stuff and with a five goal haul from Andrew Merrington they snuffed out any chance of a comeback and consigned De La to a brace of losses.

For the first time in Premier football this season two sides outside of the four managed to defeat opponents firmly entrenched. Old Carey managed to outlast Old Scotch at Camberwell by less than a kick bringing the Panthers back into the land of hope for those teams chasing finals.

It was an arm wrestle all day with neither side managing more than two goals on end. Scotch lead by two at quarter, and three at half time before Carey lead by one at the last change and five at the final siren. Carey will be happy that they stopped a good side from playing they way they wanted to with Nick Richardson applying the brakes on Lachie Hill. For the second time in 2

two weeks Trevor Rowe sent star recruit Adem Yze forward and the last quarter specialist delivered again with two vital majors. For the visitors Cam Howat kicked three and had many friends in Lach McQueen-Miscamble, Richardson and Rob Josephs who contributed for contributed for four quarters. For the home side Tom McKinley was best with only Will Strange able to kick multiple goals.

The top of the table clash saw undefeated Collegians host Old Xaverians at Harry Trott. The reigning premiers started brightly against the 2010 champs before Xaverians worked their way on top. The Lions led by 5 points at quarter time and within minutes of the start of the second the lead was gone. A seven goal quarter from Xavs with Matt Handley superb kicking three, put the game into an ominous position for the hosts.

The big bodies of Handley, Pat Ambrose, Andy Biddlecombe and Damien Lynch in the forward line was troubling the Collegians defenders but more importantly they couldn’t win the ball out of the middle. A five minute period after half time saw a number of chances fall to Collegians as they pressed, Cam Lee missing three shots – two difficult snaps. Nevertheless seven behinds to one goal two still saw Xavs win the quarter. The last term was a fizzer with neither side kicking a goal. Xavs taking top spot at the turn for home along with their 37 point win.

We are not quite at survival panic stations yet, but be sure the clubs in the bottom four of the section have it in the back of their minds that if you beat your nearest opposition in the clichéd eight point games, then survival is a step closer.

For University Blues they did just that an in doing so jumped over Old Trinity in another close one at University Oval. Former Blues coach John Kanis was riding every score update as it came through on the livescores app. Incumbent, Fergus Watts TODAY SELECTIONS IN BOLD De La Salle v Collegians Old Carey v St Bedes / Mentone Tigers Old Trinity v St Bernards Old Xaverians v Old Scotch Caulfield Grammarians v University Blues

couldn’t be happier with the performance of Marshall Rippon, Peter Summers and Henry Weddell. For the vanquished, failing to score in the opening quarter was costly – Brett Barrett and Andrew Kyriacopoulos were the mainstays for the afternoon.

In the other bottom four clash the hot and cold St Bede’s Mentone Tigers held out a fast finishing Caulfield Grammarians at Brindisi Street. Hot in the first term kicking 6.6, Mick Dwyer won’t be happy with the fact that the Tigers were both inaccurate and goalless in the last term (5 behinds). Furthermore his side allowed the winless ‘Fielders to charge home with 3.5 to wittle a 28 point ¾ time margin back to 10. Alas it was a bridge too far for Caulfield with inaccuracy costing them also. Victoria U/23 captain and Big V senior representative, Tom O’Sullivan continued his strong form with best afield honours, while the hosts had the Senior Big V captain, Paul Wintle to thank for marshalling the defence to

allow them to hold out for a valuable four points.

To this week: De La Salle return home needing a win to maintain their right to a top four place.

With Collegians as the visitor I like their chances of causing an upset. Old Carey should have beaten the Tigers in Round 1 and they should make up for it winning their third game in a row.

Old Trinity need a win but the visitors St Bernards have a sniff of fourth spot – The Greens in a close one for me. Old Xavs will be looking for revenge for their loss to the Cardinals in round three, and at Toorak Park they will get it. The final game is on Sunday as footy returns to Sportscover.

Caulfield are getting closer to breaking through but Headquarters is a happy hunting ground for the Blues. Had it been at Glenhuntly I might have been swayed, its not, so I won’t.

THE DOGS OF WAR Now that we’ve gone a full lap through the fixture we’re in that strange and mysterious halfway land that tells us lots …and tells us nothing. A bit like Donald Rumsfeld with his known knowns, we now have some intel about the competition we didn’t have ten weeks ago. We know that Uni Blacks and St Kevins play a dominant, disciplined brand of footy and the Sharks have the teeth to take them both on. We know that Oakleigh and Old Ivanhoe face a mammoth task to stay up after struggling to convert gettable games. And just like the eminently quotable ex US Secretary of Defence, we acknowledge there are also known unknowns: the stuff we know that we don’t know.

Sure, there’ll be surprises aplenty in the second half of the year; we just don’t know what they’ll be yet. Someone will burst from the middle of the pack to stake a claim. Will it be OMs? The ‘Tonners? Can the Bloods and Tigers reverse their recent form slump? Every side will lose players to injury, travel, exams and the like. But who? How many? Who’s returning? Plus a myriad of other known unknowns such as VFL releases, weather conditions, club politics and the occasional random earthquake. Hang on; scratch that last one. That was an unknown unknown. Never saw that one coming.

Last week’s showdown between first and second was a fizzer. Blacks were aggressive and in control from the start while the tri-colours lacked their usual vibrancy. If not for the Uni’s inaccuracy and SKOB’s pride-driven mini fightback in the third the 63-point margin would’ve been much higher. Jordan Foster (5) was a strong forward target, Drysdale and Richardson bobbed up at every contest. St Kevins has a few stars on Euro sojourns (another handful join them this week) but then who hasn’t? As Donald also said: “You go to war with the army you have, not the army 4

you might want or wish to have at a later time.”

Yeah, onya Donny.

AJAX registered a definitive 42-point win in a classic 8-point game at Pine Lodge, putting themselves three games clear of relegation.

Both sides started slowly, the Jackas clicked into gear midway through the second inspired by stand-in captain Marcus Jankie along with unflappable backline General, Warren Steinberg.

Owen Weatherley returned to the Hoes, inspiring hope for the brown faithful as the season back half unfolds.

The Krusher’s boggy battlefield at Scammell Reserve was the scene of yet another defeat, this time at the hands of Old Melburnians. On top early, the Oaks were wayward in front of goal, trailing at quarter time when they should have led. Determined and well-drilled, OMs ran the game out adding scoreboard pressure sure to please the dark blue coach. James Beaumont was their best while Mick Harold continues his reliable form for Oakleigh.

In his standout senior appearance to date, Old Brighton midfielder (and captain of the 2010 Under 19 Premiership side) Tom Mariani notched 30 possessions and three goals for the ‘Tonners in a telling win over the Bloods played at Haileybury College. Not the most attractive display with goals at a premium, the inconsistent Bloods struggled to find any sort of rhythm as the Brighton boys were first at the ball all day, running out 19 point winners.

Despite a seven-goal haul from prolific Werribee forward Chris Molivas and a final term rally by the Tigers, Beaumaris displayed their dominance at the Aquarium with a three-goal win.

continues to mature in the Shark’s backline while Matt Petering showed an increasingly versatile bag of tricks. Watch for some big games to be played at Banksia in the back nine.

THIS WEEK Turning at the half always seems to jolt sides into action as relegation reality sets in for some and the race for final’s contention whips up those middling away. Ironically, right now is the time for a bit of shock and awe yet plenty of personnel go AWOL at this stage of the year. Rapid dominance on the footy field takes elite crack forces and the coaches that best manage these known and unknown knowns will be the ones figuring in another ten weeks or so.

Beauy will be a bitter battle to the end and AJAX should capitalise on the Haileyburian list woes.

With SKOBs on the mat Old Melburnians have a chance to plant the old Cadet army boot, and the ‘Bees must convert their Soldiers Reserve MASH unit into a fortress against Old Ivanhoe who ride in with Sir Galahad back at the helm.

Meanwhile Uni Blacks at home should be wary of the desperate Krusher’s call to havoc and let slip the dogs of war.

PEGS WITHIN STRIKING DISTANCE Not a lot of movement on the ladder after the completion of Round 9, with the biggest result being Rupo’s upset of the Wellers. Rupo’s win makes it a long way back now for the Blues and Rovers to avoid relegation, while Old Camberwell inherits the shakiest ground of the teams currently in the four.

It was a depleted Fitzroy that took the field against the Rovers at Boss James and Hampton was pretty competitive throughout. Ed Turner was lively again with three goals and Tom Youl continues to produce. In the end though, it was just a case of the Roys being too strong, never being seriously challenged. With boom recruits, Ablett and Vansittart, missing this one, a couple of other first year players stepped up, with Matty Brown and William Fenton highlighting how strong this year’s recruiting crop has been and Scott Cations helping himself to four snags.

With a heart-stopping win over Mazenod at home the Vultures moved back to terra firma inside the top four. It was a see-sawing contest, with Parkdale kicking four goals to one in the first stanza, which was a precursor to the problems the teams would have scoring to that end all day. It nearly saw the Nodders notch a famous victory, with 4.3 to 0.2 in the last quarter leaving them short by just five points. Mitch Grant’s performance was a big factor in the Vultures managing to keep their noses in front, in what their supporters will probably look back on as one of the most important wins of their season.

Josh Cowan was fantastic for Mazenod, while Rees Thomas was a good target in the forward line.

They took a while to shake off those pesky Bears, bet eventually Marcellin did enough to 6

retain top spot on the ladder with a fifteen point victory. It wasn’t long before the Eagles realised they were in a contest, with Banyule holding the lead at quarter time. Ian Stokes made a sparkling return to the senior side, while Adam Barclay and Jack Langford combined well in the forward line.

But it’s no fluke that Marcellin heads the ladder at this stage and they kept grinding it out to gain the ascendancy and register another quality win.

Big Anthony Beaini controlled the game from the stoppages and, with the usual suspects not having their standard impact on the scoreboard, Matt Gasparini and Robbie Costanzo picked up the slack.

At the Grammar, PEGS had a massive final quarter to get over the Ashes and move into outright fifth, just two points behind the Wellers.

It was the Blues who held sway for most of the game, taking a handy fifteen point lead when the oranges were passed around, behind Dean Page’s heroics. But PEGS can never be counted out at home and it looks like the Ashes only budgeted enough fuel for three quarters with the home side coming from the clouds for a great win. Ryan Jones played a ripping game and big Trent Skurrie was important for PEGS. Monash’s disappointment was compounded by the boilover at Salesian, with Rupo ending their losing streak against Old Camberwell. After not tasting defeat in the first six rounds of 2012, the Wellers have now dropped three of their last four and need to quickly regain their mojo.

little separating the teams throughout the day, it was the home side that managed to hang on for the victory. Leigh Brennan was again effective in the forward line, while Tim Neely played his best game for the club, to join Brad Slater and Lachlan Baddeley as the catalysts in the win.

Jack Duke could hold his head high, playing an immense game for the Wellers with five goals.

This week we have the Rovers travelling to Banyule and, with the Bears needing to make up some percentage on the top teams, I think they’ll be ruthless in this game. Mazenod hosts Marcellin and the Nodders will realise just how important this game is for their season. Only two points separated them in Round 3, but with seven wins in a row to their credit, I’ll stick with the Eagles. The Monash v Rupo clash takes

place at the uni and this is a vital game for the Ashes to stay in Premier C for 2013. With the disappointment at PEGS still burning, I think the Blues will finally record their second win.

Parkdale and Old Camberwell play at Gerry Green, with third spot up for grabs. The Vultures are currently playing better football and I’ll take them at home. If the Wellers fall against the Vultures, PEGS could find themselves in the four at the end of the round. All they need to do is win for the first time in white shorts this year, against the second placed Roys. I think Fitzroy will manage to win a close one.

BIG V

Russell Davidson

BIG V MEMORIES Umpiring Aussie Rules football has given me many kicks up the backside over a long period of time and on the flip side has presented me with some wonderful memories. So it came as a surprise that I had mixed feelings when asked to consider going to Adelaide for the 2011 AAFC Carnival... the first such event in 17 years. Days away from the family, important work events and a long weekend of relaxation were factors churning in my head. Luckily a wonderful wife, a supportive boss and a chance to officiate in a unique environment made the decision easy.

Instead of a kick up the backside, I was about to have a lick of the ice cream. And how tasty it was to become.

It was terrific seeing the boys at the airport and having a chat. Coach Mick Dwyer had no idea what to expect, openly wondering if the Vics would be good enough. Captain Jack Hellier, who I had umpired plenty of times but barely spoken with, and I had a great chat and an opportunity to learn more about each other. These are just some of the priceless opportunities available at these games. So team jacket in hand, we were off to Adelaide and into the unknown.

After the opening ceremony, the Vics came out blazing against the South Australians. In a shorter format, a bit like 20/20 cricket (2 x 15 minute halves plus time on), Victoria posted 5 goals in the first seven minutes and were never troubled. I was able to sit back and watch from a distance those guys that I had seen close up over the past few years. I was amazed. Jack Hellier seemed one of the most gifted players I had ever seen. Jake Gotch seemed to have an eternity of time and Jonno Nash was sublime across the centre.

It was my turn to pull the boots on.

Today I would umpire 2 games – firstly Western Australia v Tasmania and secondly South Australia v Western Australia. Deep into the first game it seemed as though Tassie would win their first ever AAFC game, but it wasn’t to be. WA kicked one late to ice the contest. The shorter format was tough. I was stuffed. I had gone pretty hard and I had to go again for the second match of the day. Unbelievably, in the cold and rain I experienced a player count for the first time in my 24 year umpiring career. SA had 19 men on the ground and their score was wiped – well, all four behinds that they scored!

The second day brought an almost premature end to the interest in the carnival preliminary rounds when the results went similarly to the day before. The Vics winning both of their games and Tassie beating SA. The Vics were through to the final to play WA and Tassie were to face SA again in the consolation.

As it turned out the South Australians turned the tables on the Tasmanians who were gallant in defeat. The consolation final and grand final were four quarter matches (20 plus time) and the timekeepers made us pay – 30 plus quarters meant that there was nothing left on the ground. The Vics demolished WA but not before another player count - the same captain calling the count! Has this ever happened in the history of the game? This time he was unsuccessful and paid for his sins.

THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2012

Attention turned to the presentation dinner and a chance to let our hair down. The All Australian team was to be announced as well as an All Australian umpire, which Benny had confirmed earlier in the week. I hadn’t given much thought to this during the week but must admit that when my name was announced as Umpire of the Carnival and All Australian, I was ecstatic! I had never dreamt of this moment... how could you but here I was after 24 years being presented with an All Australian jumper.

The moment was magnificent and I felt exceptionally proud to be photographed with the rest of the team, but more importantly the 7 players and 1 coach from Victoria who had also earned this honour. A number of thoughts went through my mind; -

How proud my family would have been of me. A lot of hard work and pain has gone into this career. Nothing could beat this.

THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2012

-

How great it was to be involved as an umpire and experience this moment.

We don’t often get these opportunities yet we work our butts off and are dedicated professionals who perform our roles with honesty and integrity.

-

How great it was to be involved in the VAFA and experience this. There would be very few competitions in the country that afford anyone this honour.

I feel privileged to be involved with an organisation such as this.

The ice cream was tasting like a Magnum!

The week reinforced my passion for the sport I have been involved in for 24 years. I am incredibly fortunate to be in this game and to have officiated at this carnival. Hopefully those reading this will gain an understanding for just how much our involvement in this great game means to us as umpires and how much we value our role in the game.

Bring on more of the ice cream!

DIVISION 1

Darren Dawson

HALFYEARLY REPORT Something which has always stuck in my head was the approach an old coach of mine had toward the football season. He would divide it into four parts: pre-season, rounds 1 – 9, rounds 10 -18, and finals. I did not entirely agree with him because, more often than not, we would end up missing the final part of the year! But as we approach both the end of June and the beginning of round 10, we would all concur it is the half-way way point in more ways than one, and thus the ideal opportunity to sit back and reflect on what we have learnt through the first part of the season.

Peninsula: the Pirates took a slight stumble a fortnight ago, but that has proved to be their only blemish thus far. With some experienced faces (such as Shaun Payze, Stefan Barbour and Brett Brisbane) enjoying their best season for a while, a finals berth is now assured; and were they to drop out of the top two it would be a huge surprise. Highlight: the 88-point crushing of finals rivals NOBs/St Pats in round 2. A+ North Old Boys/St. Patrick’s: apart from the aforementioned, and totally uncharacteristic, thrashing they received at Mt Eliza early on, NOBs/St Pats have been consistent. To an extent, they have probably flown under the radar, going about their business with minimal fuss with Matt Keown and Adam Oakley carrying on last year’s excellent form. Now six points clear in second place, a double-chance is theirs for the taking.

Highlight: the two-point win over Whitefriars in round 7, in which NOBs/St Pats hung tough. A+

targets Paul Ellis and Callum Wood firing, Old Geelong are a much improved outfit this season, but a finals appearance is not yet locked away.

Highlight: undoubtedly, the come-from-behind victory over the previously unconquered Pirates.

A Old Mentonians: it is a credit to all at the Panthers that they have turned the club around following such a difficult year in 2011. The Mordialloc experiment seems to have worked, and the future looks bright with a large number of younger types playing good senior footy.

Instructively, the three losses have been to the clubs above them, which indicates they might not quite be ready for promotion. Highlight: the five goal defeat of Friars in round 6. B+ Whitefriars: usually so strong at home, the Friars have surprisingly dropped three games at Donvale (two by less than a kick). Only half a game outside the four, and with names such as Abdallah, Petracca, Mirabella and Hogan now back in good touch, Whitefriars are keen to make up for lost ground. B MHSOB: having won four of their last five, the Unicorns are also only two points out of the four. But it seems they just cannot go with the big boys of the competition at present, as their percentage would attest. Highlight: last week’s defeat of Old Geelong. BOrmond: three and a half wins sees the Monders clear of the relegation zone, but with not enough credits in the bank to challenge for finals action.

Matt Oaten, Henry Simon, Ryan Martin and Boyd Upstill have been the best in a real up-and-down first part of the year. Highlight: the 128-point thrashing of the Saints in round 1. C TODAY SELECTIONS IN BOLD

Old Geelong: the verdict is still out on Frank Dunnell’s men, mainly because of their inconsistency. Last week presented the perfect chance to silence the doubters, but a horrible loss to MHSOB ensued. However, with forward 10

Williamstown CYMS: an excellent pre-season gave no clues to the disappointment which would follow. The Cys have a huge fight on their hands to avoid the drop. Highlight: the fighting 21-point win over Glen Eira in round 7. CPreview: Whitefriars are now back on course for Glen Eira: after the pre-season loss of some quality players, the Saints have found the going tough in the higher division, and to stay up, must now find a couple of wins in the run home.

Highlight: the 77-point defeat of fellow battlers St. John’s. D St. John’s O.C.: the youngest outfit in the section have been out-muscled on many occasions, but one cannot fault their competitive spirit. So it would not surprise if they caused an upset against one of the big boys. Highlight: undoubtedly, the 1-point victory over Ormond. D

finals and should have few problems with the Unicorns at home. Down on the peninsula, the Pirates will be far too strong for the Jocs. Ormond should bounce back from last week’s narrow defeat to account for the Saints, whilst the Panthers have too much to play for to drop this game against Williamstown. Possibly the most interesting contest will be played out at Como Park, where the OGs will be looking to re-discover their form of a fortnight ago. I am expecting Old Geelong to pip NOBs in a close one.

DIVISION 2

Rich Hummerston

MUDLARKS THE LOT OF ‘EM Like most of the VAFA community, before age took it’s vengeful and debatably premature course, I cut my teeth in junior football.

As a child of the 90’s, if you hadn’t arrived at the ground with your black Puma Kings laced up and your AFL coloured mouthguard in, you looked out of place.

An equally nostalgic trait of junior footy was the mud.

In the days of BD (Before Drought), a culmination of the previous days senior football and horrendous drainage had our mothers reaching for the NapiSan every week. Along with preparing the Lasagne and telling Brendan from across the street to go home, stirring a bucket of filthy footy clothes was a Sunday night ritual.

Last Saturday, after a week of unrelenting, mudcreating rain, we were taken back to the glory days. A time when coloured Football boots were shunned and Newspapers were read.

St Mary’s Salesian have capped off a month of stark improvement, albeit with a loss, going down to the fancied Therry Penola by a measly ten points. After an inaccuracy plagued start and struggling with the atrocious conditions, St Mary’s found their footing in the third, goals to Autio and Finlay cutting the deficit to 2 points at the last break. Alas for the Saints, their ascendancy would cease in the last verse, Ben Harding and Matty Costello the villains in the Saints Fairytale.

Among others, the term “impartiality” frequents in the scribe’s code of conduct. Usually, as the perpetual class pet I’m petrified to stray from Fitzy’s (now Andrew’s) boundaries. However, on Saturday I was like a school child proudly showing off his Gary Ablett All-star footy card, feverishly passing around my iPhone on Saturday 12

to anyone and everyone, the live updates from South Melbourne vs. Bulleen Temp illuminating my cracked screen. Unfortunately for the Swans, bias laden, long-distance cheering couldn’t get them over the line, forfeiting their third, 30-point final term lead of the season. Led by performances from Elliot Costello, Hugh Griggs and Seb Mahoney the Bloods were simply sensational up until the fourth term, far superior than their ninth spot would suggest. In the last, it was all Bulleen, South Melbourne unable to fire a shot. The old firm in Rob Edsall and David Follacchio ensured Bulleen would leave the Lake with the points in the bag.

The horrendous conditions did nothing to dilute the might of Prahran-Assumptions all-conquering fist, downing a revived and temporary resolute La Trobe University by 57-points. Forfeiting the first three goals of the match, harrowing memories of last weeks capitulation undoubtedly lingered in the minds of the 4-blues before a dominant third term from James Musster and Paul Donahoo saw a prompt restoration of order. Tim Mayer with seven majors joined best buds Jack Matherson and Nathan Davey in the accolades for Prahran while for La Trobe it was Elliot Kelly and Mark Steele that took the honours.

Tipping Emmaus St Leos last week has left me with a face covered in Eggs Benedict, the Animals getting slaughtered to the tune of 127 points, unequivocally their worst performance of the year. Leading by 11 goals at the main break, Eltham could have put the cue in the rack. They did anything but. Using the second half as a vehicle to showcase their skills, sending a purposeful message to the rest of the competition in the process.

Galvin, Eltham are an impressive outfit. Add sporadic dominant performances from Lendaro, Chapman, Harper and Brown, and the Turtles will be a near unstoppable force.

Now that every side has come up against Old Paradians, witnessing first hand how damaging the man mountain can be, I’m expecting to see a significant decline in touches for playing coach David Boundy. Unfortunately for Monash, the past Saturday marked the day they joined the long list of sides dismantled by Boundy, the Monash coaching staff seemingly content to leave him lose across half back. In a scrappy affair, it was Old Paradians that first grabbed the ascendency early in the third term though consecutive goals. From there, they didn’t look back, making light work of an injury ravaged

Gryphon outfit. Dan Giddings and Sean Miller impressed for Old Paradians while Milo Ogden Dan Baxter toiled all day for the Gryphons.

Humbled after last weeks attempts to pick controversially, this week I’m opting for a more cautious approach. Therry to knock off St Leo’s, Monash over St Mary’s and Old Paradians over South Melbourne. I shudder to think as to what Eltham could potentially inflict on La Trobe and in the potential Grand Final preview, Bulleen Temp will right last week’s wrongs, winning comfortably over Prahran.

DIVISION 3

Nick Wynne

ALL THE LITTLE LIGHTS The next 14 weeks are all about taking chances.

And so I share this little parable (which you will note is not as clichéd as an Einstein quote): “I know a man with nothing in his hands, nothing but a rolling stone, he told me about when his house burnt down, he lost everything he owned, he lay asleep for six whole weeks, they were gonna ask his mother to choose, when he woke up with nothing he said son I’ll tell you something, when you’ve got nothing, you’ve got nothing to lose. Now I’ve got a hole in my pocket, a hole in my shirt, a whole lot of trouble, he said, but now the money’s gone, life carries on and I miss it like a hole in the head”.

Aquinas had nothing to lose on Saturday. And didn’t they make the most of it, toppling the most impressive side in the division. The Bloods led most of the day and managed to pull off the upset of the season so far. It was a day for the Cal’s with Callum “Chips” Cormack sensational in booting three goals, while the Bloods would not have got the job done without the likes of Callum “Bruce” Willis and Russ “Jodie” Foster. I have not jumped off the Yarra Valley bandwagon yet, but this boat may sink, but I’m not going to rock it, because the sea doesn’t know my name.

I think a lot about Division Three football on a day to day basis. On Monday I thought about why Ash Close is called the Moose and on Tuesday I decided that this game was the one to watch in Round 9. On one hand, Ivanhoe have been in dominant form; and on the other, Centrals have produced upsets aplenty in season 2012. Alas I may have chosen the wrong game. Ivanhoe showed they were by far a superior side. With the likes of Moose, Paul Walter and Paul Harris, they made light work of the Snakes in the first half and that was that.

16

For those, like I, that have an affection for the follicly challenged, (which I’m told is humorously politically correct, euphemistic, of a person that has difficulty growing hair) it is a must that you get down to the Wicks early game as there are more skulls running around then you would find in an elephant’s graveyard.

In the later game it was more about UHS-VU then the Wicks who managed to get a vital away win. In a tight contest the two goal deficit could have been larger had the Uni boys kicked a tad straighter, but they will be happy with the win nonetheless. Mark Temming and Cheyne Kelly were great for Uni, while Lachie Bedingfeild was again best for the Wicks. I’m calling for a skull revolt if the Wicks are to improve next week.

It seems Old Westbourne have been running in the wrong direction all season, so to get a convincing win under the belt must be a huge relief. It was only their second salute of the year and while the scoreboard may flatter Hawthorn, it was definitely The Warriors day.

Scott Kidd was instrumental in the victory as was Francisco Pavez who not only had the ball on a string, but jagged a couple of goals as well.

That’ll teach me for tipping the Hawks.

My intimate knowledge of this competition failed me again when Kew upset the X Men out at Beaconsfield. While it was a beautiful day, the track was declared dead and from the opening bounce it was evident that it was going to be tough day. I was shocked when a rumour fluttered across my desk early Sunday morning that put an integral member of Kew FC at the ground in the early hours of Saturday, apparently doing burnouts on the centre TODAY SELECTIONS IN BOLD Ivanhoe v Aquinas UHS-VU v Hawthorn Old Westbourne v St Francis Xavier Yarra Valley v Elsternwick Power House v Kew Richmond Central v Albert Park

wicket, so that conditions suited the Bears. A trick, I am told, the same man may have picked up from his days at Moorabbin circa the early 90’s. Kew apparently love the slop, and it showed.

And it was another sloppy day for the House who are still yet to register a win, my advice to them is to tie a scarf on real tight, it’s to be a cold night. Albert Park are hitting a slight purple patch at the midpoint of the season, and after the win last week are within reach of the final five. Joshua Strawcynski the man with possibly the hardest name to pronounce in the VAFA was fantastic for the Falcons and Jason Murchie kicked a bag.

DIVISION 4

Josh Gabelich

TO SKI OR TO PLAY? In conditions better suited for the snow, football was graced with weather that made even the very best sides look average on the weekend.

Melbourne was treated to a wet week leading into Saturday’s game, which left most grounds in a state of saturation. Low scores were common across the amateurs but a few of our division four sides were able to produce scores that would beat most sides on any given Saturday.

After eight weeks of football, we were finally treated to the game that pundits widely predict to be a grand final preview. South Mornington hosted Swinburne Uni down the Peninsula with many sharing the view that the Razorbacks would be the only side that could push the rampaging Tigers this year.

By the end of the day there now appears to be a clear premiership contender in 2012. Now, it’s a case of who will join them in the big dance.

Nine rounds in and there is a gaping hole between fourth and fifth.

Point Cook round out the four with seven wins, whilst the ever impressive Manningham Cobras are a position behind but find themselves three wins adrift of September contention.

At Allard Park on Saturday, the inconsistent Bulls put in one of the better performances of the year to bring the Manningham juggernaut to a grinding halt. After an exhilarating month of four-quarter football, the Cobras were run down in the last quarter by North Brunswick.

Phil Gagliano and Dean Gee were prolific ball winners for the victors, whilst Sean Leonard was the standout for the Cobras who were sent home to lick their wombs.

In the game of the round and arguably game of the season, South Mornington showed 18

the competition why they are deservedly premiership favourites by holding the students to just five scoring shots on Saturday. In bitterly cold conditions, the Tigers grinded out a hard fought forty-four point win in front of joyful home fans who braved the less than inclement weather. Goal scoring ace, Jesse Albrecht, was well held at his fortress, booting just the two majors this week. For the Razorbacks, Michael Manning continued his purple patch of form with another swag of disposals and Aaron Pettifer was another of the visitors to star. Tiger on baller Nathan Brodie was a clear best on ground as he took control of proceedings after the long break.

Chadstone have been belted from pillar to post in recent times but their performance on the weekend, albeit another loss was a significant improvement on recent form. Hosting Mt Lilydale, the Synners didn’t throw the towel in after half time, instead matching the Rams in the final term out at Jordan Reserve. Justin Roberts’ nine goals was the difference in the end between the two sides, and Russel Strong’s composure around the stoppages was also decisive. For the home team, crowd favourite Cisco George showed his class.

Point Cook travelled into town to take on the Magpies in a clash that could have had ramifications on their top two aspirations.

However, after a slow start the Bulldogs found themselves in control of the game and kept West Brunswick at arms length for the remainder of the affair.

influential for the hosts from the opening bounce.

For the Dogs, Ricky Munn was everywhere and Jordan Lampi continued to show why he is one of the better plays in this competition.

In Saturday’s local derby between Eley Park and Box Hill North, the Sharks highlighted the gulf in class between the haves and have nots in this competition. By half time the Sharks had all but sealed the game against a less than impressive Demons outfit. Damian McCabe booted five for the victors, thanks largely to some pristine supply by Zaal Khariwala and Grant Deacon.

Today: North Brunswick gets an opportunity to build ion their strong performance from last week when they host the Synners. South Mornington should have no problem making it ten from ten when the make the trip down to Elgar Park to take on Box Hill North. Manningham will find it tough to respond to last week’s disappointment when they come up against the Eley Park Sharks. In the clash of last years relegated sides, Mt Lilydale and West Brunswick go toe to toe. In the game of the round, Swinburne Uni will be out to prove a point against fellow top four side Point Cook.

CLUB WAREHOUSE RISING STAR 2012 JOSHUA COWAN - MAZENOD Having just turned 19, Josh is starting to fulfil his potential as a footballer in his second year at the club. Josh joined the club from Mazenod College at the start of last season. He made an immediate impression with his attack on the ball and damaging left foot kick.

His pre-season form was so good he forced his way into the senior team in round one. By Round two he was named best on ground having kicked 3 goals from a back pocket. Josh played 14 games last year and was determined to take the lessons learnt from the season into 2012.

Josh worked diligently on improving his weaknesses by seeking continuous feedback from the coaching staff and has been named in the best four times this year and capping that of with a best on ground performance on Saturday. Josh has gone from a reliable back pocket player to an attacking half back flanker with time also spent on ball. Josh has managed to get forward and kick 6 goals with his penetrating left foot. Josh has involved himself in the club helping organise the end of season trip and social side of the club! We are all delighted at the improvement Josh has made in 2012 and are keen to seen him develop his full potential over the coming years in the Mazenod jumper.

* to be eligible for the club Warehouse Rising Star, a player must be born no earlier than 1991 and playing his first full season of senior football.

VAFA BEIERSDORF TRAINER OF THE WEEK LAURA HAM - NOBSPC Laura is a 4th Year Physiotherapy student at Melbourne University.

2012 is Laura’s 3rd year associated with NOBSPC Amateur football club. Laura has been the lead trainer for the last 2 seasons which requires a lot of work in putting together rosters, purchasing of tape and other required equipment, liaising with coaching staff on current injuries and status of player fitness. Laura has also been leading the way by working with club sponsor Viva Physiotherapy to introduce Pilates and other injury prevention programs. In Season 2011, Laura also gave up her Sunday’s to work with the Junior club associated with NOBSPC (Brunswick Junior Football Club). Laura not only gives up her weekends to be apart of the on-field team, she also takes time out of her social calendar to attend club events like the Ball. Laura will no doubt go onto work full time as a Physio next season which will mean moving on from the club. She will be missed by all in Season 2013.

RETRO

Geoff Reilley

12 MONTHS AGO – 2011 In the return bout in A Section, De La Salle again established their superiority over Uni Blues with a 7.0 to 1.0 first quarter. Jack Watts, Uni’s big man, turned the game around in the second term with 4 goals and his team led by 3 points at half time. The second half was all Uni Blues as they ran out winners 17.8 to 12.4 and showed why they were perceived to be a real threat in the top section. Best – Watts (7), Shaw (3), Austin, Van De Pol, Roache, Chadwick (Blues) and Todd, Nethersole, Roberts, Muller (4), Humphrey, Lowe (DLS).

Uni Blacks’ form was difficult to read at times in B Section but they didn’t really care as they held the ladder leaders, Caulfield Grammarians, scoreless in the final quarter and took out the contest 14.3 to 10.7. This impressive victory placed the Blacks in fourth position. Best – Weekley, Lacey (4), Kalms, Howgate, Batten (UB) and Lewis, Widjaja, Perkins, Slonim, Sinclair (4), Winter (Caulfield).

Luke Wintle achieved his 250th game for St Bedes Mentone Tigers and his talent had shone through in each of his 15 seasons by winning numerous awards and being so important to the three consecutive premierships in 2006, 2007 and 2008.

5 YEARS AGO – 2007 Aquinas continued on their winning way in D2 Section and defeated St Johns 12.18 to 7.11. Best – McPherson, Hunter, Maaskant, Whitehead, Lorkin, Olarenshaw (Aquinas) and Phaedonos, O’Connor, Walker, Morton, Arnold, Jones (St Johns).

Swinburne had a very important win over 22

second placed Hawthorn in D3 Section (10.13 to 3.7) and in doing so firmed in fourth position. Best – Fricke, Farrington, Higgins (5), Whiting, Hildebrand, Morrison (Swinburne) and Moussi, Keeghan, Garlick, Lyons, Hyland, Ryan (Hawthorn).

The three top teams in D4 Section, Eltham Old Collegians, St Mary’s and UHS-VU all won in heavy weather conditions when upsets often occurred. St Mary’s only broke away from a determined Albert Park in the final term to win 11.14 to 7.6. Best – Sloman, Armstrong, Gatehouse, Murphy, Cope (3), Purcell (StM) and Baker, Hyams, Hansen, Bennett, McIndoe, Murnane (AP).

10 YEARS AGO – 2002 It had been four years since Old Scotch had won a game at Elsternwick Park but their chance to break the ‘hoodoo’ arose against Uni Blues in the A Section match of the day. It didn’t start well for Scotch however as the Blues jumped them in the first quarter and led by more than four goals at half time. The hoodoo was certainly prominent in the third quarter as the Blues ran all over Scotch and went on to win 16.23 to 10.10 and now the Blues were only one game out of the four while Scotch held third spot.

Best – McLachlan, Young, Sturrock, Gleeson (5), Slimmon, Solly (Blues) and Finnocchiaro, Robinson, Nettleton, Collins, Wigney, Beranger (Scotch).

B Section was a fairly even competition and it became more so as Therry won their first for the season over Hampton Rovers 18.13 to 14.6.

Best – Appleford, Castaldi, Henderson, Kuret (43), Grant, Barron (Therry) and Barker, Martyn, Power (5), Browne (4), Zampaglione, Fletcher (Hampton Rovers).

Jerome Dunne played his 100th game for Mazenod Old Collegians against NOB’s at Elsternwick Park.

THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2012

20 YEARS AGO – 1992 Glenhuntly were too strong for Aquinas in E Section with the Hill boys again starring for Glenhuntly who had held sway all day and finished 15.21 to 13.16. Best – A Hill (5), T Hill (3), Gilmore, Crook, May, Silva (Glenhuntly) and Tarulli, Hacking (4), Kirkhoven, Joice, Colliver, Wilkinson (Aquinas).

Uni High School Old boys were too strong for Richmond Centrals 14.11 to 9.7 and answered each challenge the Centrals had thrown at them. Best – Gunthorpe, Lugg, Gamble, D Smith, D Bennett, Waters (UHSOB) and Krishos, D Shannon, Bastow, Hickey, Pickett, D Jiggins (Richmond).

30 YEARS AGO – 1982 In a game that would change the top four in A Section, Ormond hosted Uni Blues and the Blues used the wind cleverly to take a four goal lead at quarter time. In the second quarter, Ormond sprayed shots for goal kicking 3.9 while the Blues consolidated with a three-goal lead at half time. Blues went further ahead at three quarter to lead by four and a half goals but with a withering run, the Monds kicked 7.4 to 0.2 in the final quarter to win 14.18 to 13.10 and tipped the Blues out of the top four as a result. Best – Dove (3), Bourne, A Mehrten, McCooke, Holman, Vane (Ormond) and Yeo (3), Orton, O’Brien, Dennis, Dallas, Bond (Blues).

One of the great amateur players, Ormond’s champion, Bruce Bourne, played his 250th game which also created a new Club record for senior games. Having resisted the temptation to play League football in his earlier years, despite offers from a number of VFL Clubs, Bruce’s record in amateur football was exceptional – Four B&F’s at Ormond, Captain of that Club, Four times Captain of Victoria, A Section B&F, All Australian on three occasions, Bruce was also a scrupulously fair player, equally at home at CHF or CHB and was a life member of his club.

Bulleen Templestowe went a game clear in THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2012

4th Spot on the B Section ladder with a strong performance over 5th placed Monash Blues, 17.10 to 7.10. Best – Bird, Pollard, Ling (5), Demarte, Flack, Van Den Driest (BT) and Sest, Syme, Loorham, McCormick, Bergin, Flett (Monash).

40 YEARS AGO – 1972 Powerhouse remained the best bet to challenge the undefeated Reservoir Old Boys in C Section after they defeated Fairfield 13.17 to 8.15.

Best – Tracey, Daniel, M Newton (3), Shewan, R Newton, Taylor (PH) and Jowett, King, Guest, Hyland, Keane, Hume (Fairfield).

Old Brighton were too good for Alphington in D Section, 13.17 to 7.20. Best – Watkins, P Devine, Agar (3), Reid (3), Thomas, I Mullett (Old Brighton) and Johnston, Adams, McKay, Shearer, Smith, Newman (Alphington).

50 YEARS AGO – 1962 Power House Juniors were uncanny in front of goals to kick a total of 13.2 and defeated the more highly ranked Ivanhoe 11.12. SKOBS congratulated John Filgate on his 150th game.

Top team in B Section, Old Scotch, were level at half time with Coburg but were able to win the game by 1 point, 11.8 to 11.7, their stars being Harkness, R Tindale and McLean while Salter, Malloy and Scanlon were Coburg’s best.

60 YEARS AGO - 1952 In shocking conditions Uni Blues defeated Collegians 5.4 to 1.7 with John Thwaites celebrating his 100th game for the Blues.

Section leaders at the half way mark were Ormond (A), Ivanhoe (B), Coburg (C), Caulfield Grammarians (D) and Ormond (Juniors).

Leo O’Brien played his 100th game for St Kevins Old boys.

RACE FOR 3RD CAREY BROTHER Things are getting interesting between Old Xaverians and Collegians and not just on the football field in the race towards September glory. Harry Trott saw Tom and Scott Carey take to the field for opposing teams in the Premier top of the table clash.

This was not lost on any of the crowd, least of all Collegians President Wayne Dyer.

In attendance at the lunch was the boy’s father Stephen, who played 105 games with Essendon (and 7 with Geelong) in the VFL

in the 1980’s including the Bomber’s 1985 premiership team.

There is a third Carey brother, at 17 years old and 6’5 is a big prospect. Apparently he is yet to decide if it will be purple or red and black that he dons. Dyer had some light hearted fun trying to ensure that Stephen’s raffle ticket would be the winning one pulled at the lunch to perhaps sway the ledger the way of the Lions.

MULTICULTURAL ROUND Football is a game for everyone. This weekend we recognise the diverse nature of many of our clubs and we recognise that there are players of many different backgrounds that play on an oval in Melbourne every Saturday. The response this column had from clubs wanting to highlight the players they had on their lists from diverse backgrounds was immense.

The highlights included St John’s involvement in the Greater Dandenong area where player’s backgrounds include Samoan, Sri Lankan, Mauritian, Sudanese, Philippine and English.

De La Salle were chosen as the feeder club for Oakleigh Chargers first Sudanese born recruit Gatluak ‘Pauly’ Johnson has starred in many games for their under 19’s this year.

At Old Carey, they continue to bring a young Aboriginal footballer from Central Australia to the club to experience football in Melbourne.

In 2011 they hosted Jermaine Wunungmurra, again in 2012 they are hosting another NT boy, this time Matthew Moketarinja, an 18 year old from Alice Springs.

At Point Cook AFC they have been lucky enough to have Irishman Keith Kavanagh come off the street to try his hand at AFL footy at age 32. He showed right from the outset 42

that he had the athletic capabilities and could read the game well enough, but there have been two area’s of focus, which with each week that passes, Keith improves dramatically on - the rules, and his kicking.

At Hawthorn Amateurs, their involvement in multicultural development extends beyond the realm of Rathmines Road Reserve. The White River Demons in the Solomon Islands have been the beneficiary of equipment (water bottles, training bibs, cones and footballs) from the Hawks through their secretary Paul Nunan whose brother Michael is living there.

If you have any footy gear that you would like to donate to the White River Demons, please get in contact with Paul Nunan on paul@easternbridge.com.au or President/ Secretary/Coach/Full Forward Michael Nunan onmichaelnunan@hotmail.com You can read in more detail about these stories online at our website.

A LEOPARD NEVER CHANGES ITS SPOTS There are many in the football media that leave us wondering who their colours are pinned to. For the recently departed Media and Communications Manager of the VAFA, it was like he couldn’t wait to remove the cloak of impartiality on Saturday. Michael Fitzgerald was seen sporting an Old Xaverians jacket and was more than happy to pose for this picture.

Fitzy was also seen barracking loudly from behind the goals to ensure that Xavs got over the line in their clash with rivals Collegians.

PREMIERS IN JUNE? That is certainly what South Mornington will be hoping is not a reflection of their season in 2012. But as the only undefeated senior team, they stand pretty on top of the all-comers senior ladder at the half way house before the turn for home. In a light-hearted look at the 72

senior teams FTLOTG has created a mid year ladder across all the sections and some good teams are struggling to make the four at this stage. North Old Boys / St Pats are the unlucky team on 8 wins to miss out on the top 10 on percentage.

UMPIRE PATHWAYS PROGRAM Great news for players and umpires alike as yet another player is making their way in the Umpires Pathway Program. This time its Brent Wallace – son of Terry – who has decided a career in white might be a good option. Brent is an excellent footballer whose distinguished career has been cut down by injury. A u/16 Vic Metro rep, Northern Knights player, first 18 captain at Carey Grammar and the past few seasons at the Box Hill Hawks are all on the playing CV. However a interest about umpiring always burned and in Brent’s own words, “After

watching Jordan Bannister in the first NAB game I had a discussion with Dad and then spoke to Jeff Gieschen wondering if there was anything I could do whilst playing that would up skill me so if I did want to go down that pathway I would be a step ahead. After that Jeff offered me a scholarship through the AFL Player to Umpire Pathway.” We look forward to monitoring Brent’s progress to see if he can follow in other VAFA umpires steps to go on to the big time.

Old Brighton’s courageous mid-fielder, Jon Edge has played many senior games in defence or on the ball where his pace and ability to win contested possessions has made him invaluable. These days, he is an integral member of our champion Reserves side that is endeavouring to repeat last year’s premiership success. Jon is one of our most popular and loyal players and he continues his campaign to prove he is the best kick for goal in the family!

Old Camberwell’s club favourite, Matt Cottrell joined the Club in 2001, and played in the successful premiership winning Grand Final team that season. Returning to the Club in 2004, mid way through the season, he won the first of his three Reserves Best and Fairest awards. Matt has been part of two Old Camberwell Reserves Grand Finals teams and he would genuinely love to see him be part of a winning unit before he hangs up his footy boots.

De La Salle’s Joel Phillips started with the juniors and won an U17 Best & Fairest in 2005. He is an U19 premiership player and in 2008 won the U19 most consistent award. Joel made his senior debut in 2009 and is a highly skilled player who has battled persistent injury in recent seasons. For the first time in several years Joel is injury free and starting to hit a good patch of form.

UNDER 19 With the under 19 representative team being selected, the lucky ones to have been chosen for Big V honours could enter the weekend knowing a good performance could secure their spot for the match on 16th July.

U/19 Premier Old Melbournian host Old Scotch at Albert Park and the Cardinals had a big win over a team that was 2 games clear of them before this contest.

You wouldn’t have thought so as Scotch piled on the goals in a 77 point win. University Blues won at home over Beaumaris by 39 points with Smith and Johnstone both kicking three for the winners and Matt Zangi with the same number for the vanquished. There were more lopsided results as Old Xaverians crushed Uni Blacks by over 30 goals. For Xavs, Rob Ralph and Steven Berengo kicked 15 between them with eight and seven respectively. St Bedes Mentone Tigers issued a similar hiding to Fitzroy although the margin in this instance was restricted to just under 20 goals, with 13 Tigers booting a major. The final game of the round was a tighter contest but that didn’t De La Salle from their winning ways with a comfortable win at home over St Bernards by 27 points. For the travelling Snowdog pups, James Bennie was named best whilst Charlie Hayley kicked five for the winners.

U/19 Section 2 The trip to Bulleen was a fruitful one for Werribee Districts as they managed to hold out Old Carey by 20 points in a high scoring encounter, especially so considering the low scores at all other grounds. The lead was established in the first term, slightly extended at the main break and remained pretty much the same for the 48

rest of the day. St Kevins secured the four points at Glenhuntly with Caulfield going down at home by 16 points. Old Brighton suffered their first loss of the season against Old Haileybury.

The Bloods now within striking distance of the four. In the game that both clubs could walk to but probably never do, Old Trinity popped over the fence to Marcellin, stole the four points from their backyard and quickly scurried back to have of Greener fields.

U/19 Section 3 In the early match at 9.20am – reminding both teams of their true junior days – PEGS hosted Collegians and they may as well have stayed in bed. The Lions romped to a 62 point win with Sam Hibbins and James Dougherty booting 3 goals each and state selection Lindsay Apted doing his selection chances no harm kicking 2 and being among the best. Mazenod had a triumphant day defeating Old Xavs by 83 points with Louis Greco kicking a handful. Old Camberwell taught St Bernards a lesson with they visited Gordon Barnard Reserve with a comprehensive 145 point win. For the Wellers Nick Adamson bagged eight.

U/19 North Ivanhoe have strongest team ve proven roven to be th the st in this section whilst made to ection on to date and w whils work hard ard they hey managed to run out o 28 point winnerss over MHSOBs ver the he visiting Old Geelong.

Geelon Ge played hosts University they osts to La Trobe Un Universit and a were a little tle moree accommodating accomm tthan they might have the close one e preferred. ed. albeit alb in th of the day. the chocolates ay. La Trobe getting g by nine points nts aided d b by nine goals between Tom Williams (5) and Mitchell Gleeson (4) with Declan Ryan also having a great day. Emmaus THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2012

St Leo’s hosted Therry Penola at Bennettswood Sports Ground and for Therry is was a trip worth making. Therry Penola had solid contributions all around the ground but if names are to be put up in lights then look no further than Sean Rees, Lachie Stretton and Daniel McCracken.

With AJAX no longer fielding Williamstown CYMS had the bye.

a

side

U/19 South For much the same reason that the weekend golf hacker keeps coming back when they shoot 100 but manage to scorch their last drive of the day right up the middle, so to do football clubs rejoice when a drought breaking win is achieved. The perceived strength of a club is often determined by their under 19 program, and when your under 19’s secures the clubs first win of the 2012 season you have reason to celebrate. Football is worth it after all. Hampton

Rovers Football Club would have had a few smiles around the club on Saturday night. Their 19’s had done them proud. Winning at home against Beaumaris by – does it matter? Well yes it does – they won by 48 points, becoming the first senior team to win on the new surface at Boss James Reserve. Oh to hear the song be sung. In other games Parkdale Vultures won at Monash Blues by 32 points. De La Salle triumphed at home to Peninsula by 15 points and St Mary’s Salesian defeated St Bedes / Mentone Tigers by double their score 141 -70.

Finally, any young up and coming, aspiring writers or journalists that haven’t been scared off from the profession by the situation at Fairfax please contact Andrew Leonard at the VAFA about writing the U/19 report each week.

UMPIRES

Steve McCarthy & Cam Davidson

Big one for Bobby We saw a couple of big milestones last week with two of our umpires hitting the 300 game mark in goal umpire Craig Arnol and field umpire Jamie Gunn.

But this weekend at the Brunswick Street ground we see one of our goal umpires hit the career stat of 1,000 career games. Yes, dependable goal umpire Bob Seymour will stroll out with the flags for the 1,000th time.

Bob commenced waving the flags back in 1980 for the old VFA and stayed until the end of 1984.

In 1985 he joined the Footscray Football League (now the Western Region Football League) and finally joined the VAFA in 1987 where he has been ever since.

During this time Bob has also umpired Superules, the Womens League and Reclink games, all adding to the impressive total.

He was fortunate enough to umpire interstate Superules Carnivals in Adelaide, Geelong, Canberra and Darwin. Along with that, a couple of Womens grand finals and an interstate game where the Vics took on South Australia.

Fantastic dedication to your sport Bob! He reckons he’s got a few more years left in him too.

Put a ring on it A big congratulations to Joe Hartwig who recently took the plunge and announced his engagement to girlfriend Kitty. No, it wasn’t to Cam. Well done Joey and all the best for the future.

But obviously the boys got a little distracted 56

last weekend. After being appointed to the St Kevins v Uni Blacks at TH King Oval in Glen Iris, both made their way to Melbourne Uni? After realising their error both hightailed it out to Glen Iris where they were fortunate enough to make it to the ground on time. We tell all our young umpires, CHECK YOUR APPOINTMENT!!!

Once they got there it was very cosy in those changerooms, with three field umpires (Sculls was the third wheel), three boundary umpires and two goal umpires.

Trivia Night Tables are filling fast for the VAFAUA’s annual trivia night. This year being held on Saturday 7th July at our clubrooms. The Trivia Master will again our coach Tony Hales. Not too late to arrange a table, just see Greg Rolfe.

Golf Day Whilst mentioning Rolfey, we neglected to thank him last week for a great job in organising the annual golf day. This year it was again successfully held at Amstel Golf Club in Cranbourne. A little bit of rain didn’t upset the players too much and Chillie Segota was able to get his team across the line for victory. Main highlights were: Macca knocking off former umpire Peter Angelis with the longest drive, Don Dalgleish (Daggles senior) getting closest to the pin and Bec Brown claiming the other longest drive. A great day, we need more involvement next year.

CLUB XVIII

Norm Nugent

FEW SURPRISES Round 9 results again revealed the widening gap which exists between the sides in each Section.

In five games the losing side had a scoreless quarter while in another four games the losing side scored a goal or less in a quarter.

In Section 1, Ivanhoe had a percentage and morale boosting win by 95 points over Monash Blues whose deficit increased in each quarter.

The “‘Hoers”, who are now out of the six on percentage, certainly are contributing to their Club’s successful season. Prahran/ Assumption faltered in the last quarter but still defeated Therry Penola by 102 points. Did tiredness slow the older legs? Factually the “Four Blues” rise up the ladder has been greatly helped by the continuing good form and accurate kicking of Jason Storer (another Mason Medal in the offing?), Craig Berger and the traveling man, Mark Ploenges. Old Xaverians were never threatened

by Fitzroy, who finished 169 points in arrears.

A seven goal opening burst in the Gillon “glue” set up a 43 point win for third placed, North Old Boys/ St Patrick’s over Williamstown C.Y.M.S. To their credit the inaccurate “C.Ys” only lost by their first quarter deficit. Although St Bernard’s went to an early lead, De La Salle led by 16 points at the long interval en route to victory by 34 points.

Old Ivanhoe forfeited to Old Melburnians.

In an early match undefeated leaders, Hawthorn over powered Bulleen Templestowe and won by 93 points. A feature of Hawthorn’s success is the evenness of their team, as instanced by their spread of goal kickers and good players each week. Kew started in top gear against Eley Park and virtually was assured of success as the “Brown and Golds” led forty eight points to nil at the first change. A good last quarter effort saw Kew go on to win by 70. Again Kew was well served by former VAFA. employee, Darcy Gallagher – Lyon, who has been consistently among their 60

better players. Old Geelong and the Cardinals played a fierce and physical contest in which Old Geelong’s first quarter efforts set up their 26 point victory. American recruit, Zac Taylor was the stand out player for Old Geelong, who are now seemingly assured of their first Club XVIII final appearance!! In slippery conditions on a dreary Bundoora morning, Therry Penola were never in danger of losing to Old Paradians especially with leading forward, Ray. Steer booting seven goals as Therry Penola recorded victory by 65 points.

Richmond “Snakes” started slowly against UHS / VU who led at quarter time. The game remained very close until a big last quarter effort propelled the “Snakes” to victory by 26 points.

Old Melburnians may take a while to hone their skills against Williamstown C.Y.M.S. on the windy Fearon Reserve. None the less I expect the “ O.M.s to win as having seen each side over the past two Rounds, I believe the “O.M.s” will be too tall and skilful for the “C.Y.s”. In an early game, fourth placed De La Salle visit Ivanhoe, who are on the cusp of success or … Victory is vital to each team in the context of seasonal success. I favour De La Salle, whose match fitness could be the determining factor in the result. Monash Blues had their biggest success this season last week and today they travel way out to Brunswick where the confident North Old Boys/ St Patrick’s await them. The “Combine” looked good last week in heavy conditions against Williamstown C.Y.M.S.

THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2012

and with third place at stake; I favour them to win again today. Neither Fitzroy nor Old Ivanhoe have much form to recommend them in today’s clash.

I select Old Ivanhoe without any confidence and simply because they will be playing at home on a ground where the foliage and white fence can confuse the unfamiliar. First plays twelfth when Old Xaverians host Therry Penola. The visitors will try hard but the “Crocodiles” seem assured of a big victory. Prahran/ Assumption must again travel to the “great north west where all the rovers go” (Paterson). They will find St Bernard’s formidable opponents who are fighting to stay in the top six and will do so with victory. The “Four Blues” have shown great recent form thanks to the continued dominance of their veterans, who are striving for the success that always, eluded their side in its glory years. I select Prahran/ Assumption but won’t be surprised if St Bernard’s take the points.

Recent form suggests Old Geelong will defeat

THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2012

Bulleen Templestowe. Despite the strange surroundings Old Geelong should have the talent to win. The Richmond “Cardinals” will ensure a final four spot with victory today against Eley Park. They should achieve this goal with comfort. First meets tenth when University High School Old Boys/ V.U.T. visit Hawthorn. Hawthorn should record another big win as the “Green and Tans” do not have enough talent to extend the unbeaten leaders. In another early game, Old Paradians should again defeat Richmond “Snakes”, most of whom have never played at Bundoora where the winds and ball bounce vary from that encountered in the inner suburbs.

Therry Penola, at home, should keep their double chances alive by defeating Kew.
