NOTHING QUITE LIKE THE BIG V Last Sunday saw the final match in our representative program for the season with the Under 19’s playing a very strong VCFL. The representative program is a major commitment by the Association that commenced pre-season with the two matches against the Eastern Football League.

The seniors had two matches and were outstanding in both. The first saw a brilliant come from behind win against the EFL followed by a masterful display against AFL Sydney. The team was coached by former Big V player and Old Xaverians premiership coach Simon Lethlean. A great panel of assistants all volunteered their time generously to ensure two great wins.

It is the intention of the Board to support the representative program ensuring all segments of the Association are able to pull on the Big V. This year along with our seniors we had a Premier C – Division 4 Big V side play against the EFL, the U23’s against WA amateurs and the Under 19’s against the VCFL. A huge program that we believe benefits all players and clubs.

The Board is extremely grateful to all clubs who support the program and allow their best players to compete in these matches. No other competition can boast a sustained representative program, one that commenced in 1925 when the VAFA wore the Big V for the first time against South Australia on the MCG. The pride in wearing the Big V doesn’t finish at the conclusion of the match. Each year the Big V Club host a lunch to relive the games of yesteryear.

Two-hundred past and present players gathered at the RACV club to be reunited with people they may not have seen for 50 years.

The highlight of the day is the presentation and induction of three former Big V representatives who were elevated to Champion status. This is a

particularly special event for the player’s families who get to celebrate the feats of members who are no longer with us. Hampton Rovers champion Doug Arnold was represented by three generations of Arnold’s. After returning from the war as a fighter pilot, Doug captained the Big V each year from 1948 – 51 and was also captain of the All Australian amateurs which played in1950 and 1951.

North Old Boy and former AFL tribunal chairman Shane McGuire was the second player to be inducted a champion. Shane Maguire represented the Big V in 1969, 71, 74, 75 and was captain in 1976. He played for the All Australian Amateurs in1971 and 1974 before being selected as the 1976 AAFC Carnival captain. After retiring Shane was a Big V selector from 1981 to 1986. A magnificent contribution of nearly 20 years to the Big V. The final inductee was John Jones of Marcellin fame, who unfortunately couldn’t attend and was represented by his father Jack and brother Tony.

John played from 1981 – 84 consecutively and was captain in 83 and 84. In 1982 he was selected as All Australian vice captain.

Last weekend it was very exciting to see last year’s All Australian U23 Big V representative, Sam Dunell debut for St Kilda. Sam represented the Big V in the winning AAFC carnival in Adelaide; he was subsequently picked up by Bendigo before being rookie listed by the Saints. Sam’s father Frank is the current coach of Old Geelong and had previously coached St Bernard’s, North Old Boys and Old Essendon (PEGS). Frank played 115 games at Essendon and Brisbane before finding the VAFA after retirement. Sam joins Daniel Nicholson (Melb and Uni Blues) as our most recent Big V players to play in the AFL. Maybe one or two of this years crop will get the opportunity to go onto the big stage but if not there will be the yearly Big V reunions and a lifetime of memories.

A WEEK IS A LONG TIME IN FOOTBALL A week is supposed to be a long time in footy.

How about a month? Four weeks ago Old Scotch were 2 games clear from fifth place and looking destined to play finals footy. Fast forward a month and Scotch have lost their last three in a row.

Admittedly the past two against the best two sides in 2012 to date but dual coaches Powell and Anderson must be wondering how to regenerate the earlier season form for the Cardinals this week.

They are outside the four for the first time this year and simply must win this week against Caulfield Grammarians to right the course of the ship in 2012.

Before we look forward we must look back and what a long way back two weeks ago seem now.

Mid year breaks are a great chance for clubs to reset for seven more games of intensity that will either see them avoid relegation or go into September in top form.

In the weeks before the break Old Xaverians had found top form. Knocking off Collegians and Old Scotch in fine style before their trip to the Snakepit two Saturdays ago. St Bernards at home are a tough prospect and the Snowdogs certainly came to play with a cast of under 19 talent at their disposal. Andrew Grosso was brilliant kicking four goals in the third quarter and seven for the game, but unfortunately the youthful enthusiasm of he, David Wall, Simon Caven and Chris Peart wasn’t enough to outmuscle the experienced bodies of John Shaw, Damian Lynch and Tim Dynon who performed stubbornly all day for Xaverians.

St Bernards had a dazzling third term, but Xavs rallied in the final quarter, and when Jake Williams kicked his third the game was out of reach for St Bernards. They fell short by just seven points.

Old Carey have found some form mid season and while many neutral observers might imply its down to a double dose of Yze, the locals believe it’s the increased consistency from their stable of stars and the development and extra experience of their youth to thank. The match against Caulfield Grammarians had the potential to be a game of how far Carey but Caulfield showed in passages that they could match it with Carey despite losing 2

every quarter on the way to a 70 point loss. For Carey Brendan Huf returned to the side for his first game of the year and the 2010 R.I. Cordner Medallist provided another spark up forward for the Panthers kicking 2.3. That didn’t match Paul Fiorenza’s four or the work of Luke Maslin and Lach McQueen-Miscamble who controlled things off half back.

De La Salle had to be wary of a let down heading to University Oval. A win against Collegians the previous week was a good sign but consolidating their position against Uni Blues was vital if they were to be taken seriously as a premiership threat this year. Uni have also fond some good midseason form to move clear of the relegation battle in recent weeks. The Blues took it up to the visitors, leading at quarter and half time in a low scoring battle. De La pressed hard in the third quarter and were it not for errant kicking (2.6), should have lead by more than eight points at the final change.

It was a tense final quarter but University could never hit the front, De La securing a good away win by 15 points. No one doubting the Thomas’s at De La with both Moloney and Humphrey putting in fine displays. For the home side, Pete Summers continued his good form from last week to be their best.

In arguably the most important match of the round at Brindisi Street it was the home side that prevailed over a desperate Old Trinity. I went for Trinity based on the form of both sides the previous week but going from Daley Oval to the confines of Brindisi Street proved more of a problem for the OT’s than expected. St Bedes / Mentone Tigers had 31 scoring shots scoring at 45% accuracy; Luke Terrell was best bagging four. However had Trinity been online more often from their 28 scoring shots at 28% accuracy this game might have been closer. The costly middle two quarters brought the visitors 2.6 and 2.8 respectively. The 20 point margin at three quarter time seemed achievable but goals to Terrell - his fourth - Paul Wintle and Cam Hansen put the game beyond doubt for the Tigers. A great win in TODAY SELECTIONS IN BOLD Collegians v University Blues Caulfield Grammarians v Old Scotch Old Xaverians v St Bedes/Mentone Tigers St Bernards v Old Carey Old Trinity v De La Salle

front of a huge luncheon crowd there to celebrate Vern Boag being inducted into the club’s Hall of Fame.

On Sunday Old Scotch hosted Collegians at Sportscover with both sides needing to arrest a two-game losing streak before the break.

Scotch had the breeze in the opening term and profited from its use to lead by 26 points at the first change. The Cardinals were good again in the second term restricting Collegians to four for the quarter and managing two themselves to hold a 13 point advantage at the long break. The breeze still favoured the scoreboard end in the third however Old Scotch only managed 1.3, outscored by a more desperate opponent to only lead by half a kick going into the last. James Jorgenson was moved forward for the injured Nick Sautner and had immediate impact, kicking two final quarter goals. Jono Dixon was a handful at half forward all day kicking three and continually presenting as a target. The Lions held Scotch goalless in the final term to run over the top of them for a 39 point

win. From kicking five-goals-to-on in the first, Old Scotch only managed three more for the game opposed to 14 by Collegians.

This week: St Bernards host a rampant Old Carey and I think the visitors will prevail. Collegians are back at the Trott to Uni Blues with the home side to salute. It doesn’t get any easier for SBMTs as they travel to Toorak Park and it’s hard to tip against Old Xavs at present. Caulfield Grammarians will fancy themselves against Old Scotch but the Cardinals are made of sterner stuff, Scotch in a close one. Old Trinity are a much better side at home, unfortunately for them this week home is Sportscover Arena and that isn’t ideal for their chances, De La Salle to win on Sunday.

PREMIER B

Di Langton

RIGHT HERE, RIGHT NOW Straight back into it this weekend – no more breaks, rests, rep games or excuses. There’s nowhere to hide now; close misses and wishywashy form will find you out. From here on in we’ll see who’s got the stuff to grab the season by the throat and shake off the wannabes.

A quick nod to Brede Seccull, Jon De Pellegrin and Henry Parkes who last week garnered mentions in the VAFA U19 side that was unfortunately outgunned by a classy Victorian Country outfit at Elsternwick Park.

Back to all things Premier B, and we cast our minds back a fortnight when Old Brighton thrashed the Browns at Chelsworth Park with a mighty 14 goals to two second half. Dan Anthony nabbed a hearty bag of seven in a best on ground performance as the ‘Tonners sustained their excellent form despite the usual injuries & absences. Coach Simon Williams has unearthed some impressive depth promoting reserves and unders for good gain - full back John Nockles and wingman Sam Roney the latest debutants to have an immediate impact.

Old Ivanhoe hung in there in the first half, James Moio toiling hard and only two goals separated the sides at the half. But it was all red and blue after the break, Jim Davis carving up the midfield as OB stormed home to a 90-point win and an all-important percentage boost.

Oakleigh looked like causing the upset of the round as they got the early jump on Beaumaris at Scammell Reserve. They led at quarter time by seven points, the Sharks wresting back the second term ascendancy to nudge ahead by five at the long break. The third was a real arm wrestle; Tom Buckley and Brayden Haynes showing their respective might for the visitors, while Pat Ioannidis and Steve Doherty stuck 4

fat for the Krushers. All tied up at the final turn, the Oaks threw everything at Beauy but were unable to stop them drawing away to win by 23 points. Plenty to admire in their endeavour though.

St Kevin’s Foundation Day feast included a sumptuous lunch and three games of footy played on a sensational surface specially prepared at the college for the occasion.

Victorious in the early two, the tri-colours were met by a determined Tiger outfit that put on a torrid first term. Adam Alifraco was scintillating and Aaron Taylor (4) in vintage form, but as St Kevin’s club legend Nick ‘Pez’ Perrett said earlier in the day: “Boys we don’t lose on this day, on this ground.” And after stuffing themselves silly at the lunch, many SKOBs veterans smiled on contentedly as their side piled on the scoreboard pressure via Henry Parkes (6) and Jock Marchesani (4) while Plugger Lynch typified his side’s even contribution in a thumping thirteen goal victory.

The Jackas managed to keep pace with Old Melburnians at the Junction oval for three quarters, but the Dark Blue gradually slipped away through the consistent efforts of Lewis Haralambous who continues his stellar season form, and Tom Hywood kicking four. Nudging out to 21 points at three quarter time, OMs knew their opponents would fire up a last term resurgence, and to their credit shut down the driving attacks of AJAX glamour boy Routman and captain Warren Steinberg who was dangerous through the middle. OMs snuffed out the fightback and piled on a bit extra in a pleasing five goal win.

Another consistent performer this year, Peter Gleadhill, was best for Old Haileybury in their stunning 23 point win over Uni Blacks at McKinnon Reserve. Brede Seccull was electric and Mick Meehan kept his average up nicely roosting five goals - as he’s done in all three of his appearances this season. The confident Bloods took the varsity a little unawares, John Delahunty and Jake Matthews were best for the Blacks who struggled nonetheless for forward options and failed to get into any sort of rhythm.

HERE COMES MAZENOD For the seventh week in a row, the top four in Premier C is occupied by Marcellin, Parkdale, Fitzroy and Old Camberwell. But some genuine contenders are beginning to emerge from the middle of the ladder, with PEGS capturing a big win away from home and Mazenod comfortably accounting for another premiership fancy. The battle is on for fourth spot and, given the recent happenings at Wimbledon, the obligatory Andy Murray joke seems incongruous.

Fitzroy was the latest team to lower its colours to the Mazenod express, with the Roys capitulating completely to manage just one goal after quarter time, as the game turned into a rout in the second half. On a muddy deck at Central Reserve, Ablett kicked three in the first quarter to get the day started in promising fashion for the visitors. But it was the Nodders who gradually started to win the contested ball, to give their forwards ample opportunities. It was a true team effort and one which suggests that Mazenod could do some serious damage, if they find themselves in the top four when September rolls around. After a couple of quiet weeks Chamath Jayaweera was back to his best with five, while Louis Greco was fantastic in his first senior game of 2012. Luke Ablett was clearly Fitzroy’s best in a display that Michael Pickering will be hoping was just an anomaly.

Out at the Barnyard, Old Camberwell got back on the winners list, with a gritty performance against the struggling Blues. The game unfolded in a similar fashion to the one at Central Reserve, with the visitors gaining the early ascendancy and then struggling to score after quarter time.

It was a real slog until the final quarter, where the Wellers put on six goals to one, to cement a solid victory. Jack Duke continued his good form in front of the sticks, while big Warren 6

Carlyle chipped in with three and Damian Proksa came up from the under 19s to give the Wellers a welcome spark. It was another young gun who stood out for the Ashes, with Patrick Bryce playing an outstanding game.

Russell Barnes’ men continue to earn respect, matching it with the competition’s pacesetters in the second and third quarters, before succumbing. Ultimately, the Eagles’ good work in the first quarter set up the result, with a couple of fifty metre penalties costing the Rovers dearly. After an entertaining battle, seven goals to the home side in the final stanza pushed the margin out near ten goals. Jarrod Carlson was in top form, joining Gasparini, Crosbie and Matt Bortolotto, as Marcellin’s multiple goalscorers.

For the Rovers, Leigh Fletcher and Matthew Innes were prominent again and it was good to see Ritchie Atkins back on the field in the ones and amongst the goals.

An important game between two sides hoping to make a push for the four unfolded at Brockwell, with PEGS paying the Bears a visit. In an extraordinary first quarter, fourteen scoring shots were recorded in the first term, with Banyule putting 0.8 on the board, to PEGS’ 0.6.

There was more of the same anaemic scoring in the second quarter, with PEGS taking a slight advantage in at half time. It was the visitors who reversed the trend earlier and managed to put through more goals than points in the second half to edge further ahead and take the priceless TODAY SELECTIONS IN BOLD Fitzroy v Parkdale Vultures Hampton Rovers v Rupertswood Monash Blues v Banyule Old Camberwell v Mazenod PEGS v Marcellin

four points home with them. Rob Baddeley played his best game for the season for PEGS and was instrumental in the win, while Luke French continues to produce for the Bears.

The Vultures did what they needed to at Rupertswood, resisting a late fight back by the home side to win and take second spot on the ladder. Sean Hendricks’ outstanding season in the unders has been rewarded with opportunities at senior level and he repaid the faith with a terrific game and joining familiar names like Boland, Rochford and Hampton as standouts for the Vultures. Tim Neely was a catalyst in Rupo’s revival, but they just couldn’t get over the line, in what may prove to be a costly loss.

battle with the Rovers and while I don’t think it will be easy, they should be good enough to win.

The Ashes and Banyule will both be desperate for a win, so here’s hoping the contest will be fearsome at Frearson, though I think Banyule will get up. PEGS hosts Marcellin in a season-defining game for the home side against their old rivals and I’m going for them in an upset. And finally, we have two games with huge ramifications for September. I think Fitzroy will manage to get the points against the Vultures, while Mazenod will continue their great form against the Wellers, to take fourth spot.

BIG V LUNCH The 6th Annual Big V Lunch was held last week at the prestigious RACV Club in the city. The room was packed out with close to 200 former players and supports of the Big V to celebrate and reminisce over past glories wearing one of the most famous jumpers in football. The day was highlighted by the three new Big V Champions Doug Arnold, John Jones and Shane Maguire who were inducted into the Big V Club (see below for more on each).

Other highlights were the roving microphone work of Bernie Dunn who lit up the room with interviews of current and past champions and the day was hosted and run brilliantly by former Big V representative and coach Nick Bourke (pictured right). His interviews with the inductees and family members of the inductees were interesting and amusing at the same time.

Many people travelled great distances to be at the lunch including family and friends of the inductees.

Doug Arnold was represented by a large congregation of family members and they were thrilled to be able to share his induction on the day. Doug’s daughter Julie Hegarty accepted the award on his behalf. Julie told of Doug’s passion for both Hampton Rovers and the Big V despite teaching at Wesley he remained committed to the Rovers and just loved playing football.

Shane Maguire, when accepting the award was humbled and reminded us all of the uncompromising nature of representative football, “Twenty years of my life was spent in the Amateurs, fifteen as a player and five as selector, I’ve made a lot of friends and this is a great honour”.

Accepting the award on behalf of John Jones (pictured centre) was his father Jack and bother Tony (pictured right). Jack played 175 games for Essendon including 133 in a row which remains the club record. He played in three Premierships from seven Grand Finals for the Bombers.

He told the audience of his memories of watching his son play. Tony who played with John at Marcellin in 1981 and spoke of what a brilliant footballer John was, he then recalled how big the 1982 game against the VFA was where John played in front of a huge crowd at Sandringham which the Ammos duly won. “John could play in any position and was a coach’s dream” said Tony.

(Nick Bourke asks about inductee John Jones with his father Jack and his brother Tony. John could attend the lunch on the day due to other commitments)

THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2012

WOMAN’S ROUND In conjunction with the AFL Women’s round this week the VAFA acknowledges the efforts of the ladies and their great contribution to our competition. The women at our clubs are often the backbone and more often than not are the majority of supporter in the stands too. The AFL has a series of events highlighted by the Jill Lindsay oration on Friday to acknowledge the great leadership and service Jill gave to the game before her sad passing in 2011.

At VAFA HQ, many would be aware that our own longest serving employee Sue Anderson does

an outstanding job each week throughout the year. We wonder how long before the VAFA will introduce the Sue Anderson oration? Countless women are the glue that hold together our clubs; in no particular order they administer, coach, cook, clean, time keep, run the canteen, umpire, are trainers, are attendants, run water, support and are there when we get home to comfort as well. So if you wander past one of these special individuals this week, offer a thank you as we acknowledge all the ladies that make our competition so great.

LEAD BY WOMEN Continuing the theme for women’s round, we couldn’t help but notice that Fitzroy Football Club incorporating Fitzroy Reds are the flag bearers when it comes to having club leaders that are missing the Y chromosome. From the top they are lead by Joan Eddy who is the only female president of a VAFA club in 2012.

Joan was Vice President in 2009 and team manager of the U19 2007 Premiership team.

Joan is joined on the committee by Secretary Sharon Torney who has served in the role since

2010. Sharon was also the former President of Coburb in the VFL as well as a host of other football administration roles at Coburb and Fitzroy Reds. Sharon and Joan are joined by club director Anita Roper who has been in the position since 2011. After the merge between the Fitzroy Reds and the Fitzroy Football Club in 2008 these ladies have been pivotal in the Roy’s success. Most importantly Fitzroy are fielding five teams this year and three of those look destined to play finals.

15 YEAR-OLD SAM MASON ALREADY A 2 GAME VETERAN FOR ORMOND We have scoured the record books and cannot find anyone yet that beats 15 year-old Sam Mason at Ormond Football Club as being their youngest footballer to play senior footy.

Sam has played a couple of games for the senior side in the past few weeks after first impressing in the U19s for the club. Sam took the opportunity to play for the U19 team when a gap in his U16 fixture opened up to allow him to play. The following week he debuted for the Seniors where he kicked a couple of goals and was given an award by the club for being the teams best player in the three point loss to Glen Eira. Sam was back next week and named in the THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2012

best again, this time with one goal and some telling grabs around the ground in the sides thrilling one-point defeat of Old Mentonians.

Sam doesn’t turn 16 until September so if he plays the remaining games this year, he might end up playing 10 games and thus be ineligible for the Club Warehouse Rising Star award before he turns 16! Given that Ormond U16s are sitting on top of the ladder in the MSJFL Division 1 competition its highly likely that Sam will want to play with his mates and hopefully taste premiership success before continuing his senior footy career.

300 UP FOR JOHN TURNBULL There are comebacks and there are comebacks and in Amateur footy there is no bigger comeback than that of John Turnbull who last week reached the 300 game milestone at Banyule Football Club after beating bowel cancer in the mid 2000’s. Turnbull started at the club in 1986 in the U19s and becomes the fifth Banyule player to reach 300 hundred games. He won a senior best and fairest in

1989 and is widely regarded as one the club’s best five players of all time. Turnbull’s last 50 games have taken almost as long as the first 250, with the cancer battle and move to Aspendale limiting him to a handful of games a season for the past few years. Nevertheless 300 is a magnificent achievement for the father of three, congratulations JT!

WHEN A KANGAROO CROSSES A TURTLE What do you get when you cross a Kangaroo with a Turtle? A shocked Prahran Assumption group of WAGs that’s what. At Saturday’s game between Eltham Old Collegians and Prahran Assumption spectators and players were amused to find a 19th man on the field.

A kangaroo joined the action midway through the second term in the forward pocket, made a lead down the ground that was ignored, and fed up with not getting a touch decided to jump the fence leaving all bewildered with what they had just seen. Prahran Assumption thought they were there to play the Turtles 10

with one of the visiting WAGs overheard saying “You wouldn’t see a kangaroo at Toorak Park.” Maybe the roo was a good omen for the locals as they went on to record a big win.

Let’s hope the kangaroo’s visit doesn’t spark a mascot change as the Turtles are one of our favourite club nicknames.

NO BYE AT ST BERNARDS LAST WEEK While the three Premier Sections had byes last weekend, you could have been fooled otherwise if you were driving past St Bernards College last Saturday. The Snakepit was a hive of activity for their annual Legends Day match. There was a live 80’s band, a champagne bar, a gourmet lunch, face-painting, live auction and of course the main event was the Legends Game at 2.30.

It is the club’s biggest fundraiser each year and whilst the players in the match believe the skill on display would have been good enough to still get them a game, its fair to say that the 40 battle scarred legends in physical conditions that ranged from fighting fit to just plain frightening

honoured the jumper with pride. Although the usual slimming effects of the vertical strips failed to have much of an impact on a few. Torpedo punts and drop kicks were the order of the day for most players as former champion Jason Gollant dominated in Gary Dempsey like fashion in the ruck. Unfortunately two members of the team got bogged in the mud and had to be winched free. Festivities continued into the night with a 170 strong post game function where creaky knees and strained hamstrings seemed to be forgotten on the dance floor as all rocked into the night.

RAIN, MUD AND SHELLACKINGS It would give me great pleasure, dear readers, to announce that last week saw a round chock full of cliff-hanger finishes and nail-biting contests. That under grey and rainy skies there were battles decided by less than a kick. That there were heroes anointed after successful post-siren shots at goal. Alas, the opposite is true: the average winning (and thus losing) margin in round 11 was a whopping 98 points.

Ironically, the closest game was at Thomas Carroll, where bottom team St. John’s battled bravely all day but ultimately went down to Ormond by 55 points. With the Monders getting the early jump, the Jocs were never able to peg back the seven-goal half-time lead.

Best for Ormond were Dylan Elkman and Henry Simon, whilst for St John’s it was Liam Mara and Jeremy Diaz.

The largest winning margin of the season to date was posted by Peninsula Old Boys in their huge 182-point demolition of an undermanned MHSOB. Veteran Shaun Payze (8 goals) led the way for the Pirates, who quickly put the disappointment of the previous week behind them. Big Brett Brisbane (5 goals) offered good support, whilst Nick Fisher was in everything.

The Pirates had fourteen goal kickers. For the Unicorns, best were Lachlan Evans and Steve Villani.

At a very heavy Gillon Oval, North Old Boys – St Patrick’s did not have it all their own way in the first half. In fact, they were only 15 points to the good at the main break. From that point on it was one-way traffic, with the home team outscoring the visitors 15 goals to four. Best on ground was NOBs veteran – and new games record holder – Dan Tonkin. Matt Keown was 14

again in the best, and must be firming in the odds for comp B & F. Whitefriars consolidated their position in the top four with a comfortable win over a disappointing Old Mentonians. Led by a powerful performance by Rob Petracca (5 goals), the Friars at last produced a consistent four-quarter effort to run out 71-point winners.

Good support came from Brendan Stafford ad Dan Hogan. The Panthers were jumped in the first term in heavy rain, with the Friars’ half-back line impenetrable. Best for Old Mentonians were skipper Brad Norton and Tristan Strange.

Coach Frank Dunell left Como Park early, making a dash to Brisbane to be on hand to watch his son Sam make his AFL debut. It mattered little, with his Old Geelong charges powering away to a 98-point win over Glen Eira. Even without key forwards Ellis and McEvoy, it was a truly impressive goal-kicking display.

Preview: Today, at their second home in Mordialloc, Old Mentonians’ season is on the line. Notch up a win against the top team and they are still in the hunt. Lose, and they will most likely be two and a half games outside the four, with virtually no hope of finals action. The Panthers have come a long way this season, but I think the imperious present form of NOB-SP will hold sway.

trot, make the daunting journey down to the Pirates’ stronghold. In what I expect to be a sensational game between two finals-bound teams, Peninsula’s awesome strike-power should ensure it kicks a winning score. Ormond have been amazingly competitive – their biggest losing margin has been 31 points - but Old Geelong will be looking to shore up their final four position and will have no excuses to drop this one.

I have not tipped Williamstown very often this year, and rightly so. But after the pummelling the Unicorns received last week, the CYs might

just be able to sneak over the line against MHSOB. A Willy win would add even greater interest to the relegation stakes, which will be in sharp focus at Packer Reserve. Glen Eira beat Jocs by 77 points last time these teams met, and although I expect the result to be the same, I reckon it will be a lot closer than that.

DIVISION 2

Rich Hummerston

AND THEN THERE WERE SIX With only six rounds left until the real deal, the Division 2 season is shaping up to have a stellar finish with the top six sides all still in contention to get into the four and to have a real crack come September. It is anyone’s game.

as they went on to win by 96 points and keep the pressure on the top four. Therry are just a game and 2% behind Old Paradians now with six games to play. Both sides face each other this week but more on that later.

Old Eltham continued on their winning ways with a 51 point win against third placed Prahran Assumption, Sabastian Ciavola was strong up forward for the Turtles booting six goals, whilst Daniel Anglin was best on for the two blues.

There was some interesting looks from players and spectators alike when an extra player came onto the ground in the second quarter – read more about that in For The Love Of The Game.

It seems no one can stop Bulleen Templestowe as they continue to put together a formidable season. Monash Gryphons went to Ted Ajani Reserve hoping for an upset and they got off to the perfect start. They led the locals by 10 points at quarter time but it was all Bulleen Temp from there. Jordan Wise kicked four and three each to Jack Cowell and Justin Khouri saw the home side build a score big enough for a win. The 35 point margin enough keep them a game clear on top.

In the clash of the bottom four, La Trobe travelled out to Ferndale Park to take on seventh placed St Mary’s Salesian in the hope of knocking up their first win for season 2012. Unfortunately this wasn’t the case and La Trobe was sent packing with another 22 point defeat and the hope of getting a four point victory in the remaining weeks. Sidney Jones and David West were reliable all day for the yellow and black, Jack McNeel, and Carl Joyce were best for Latrobe.

David Boundy’s Old Paradians are finding form at the right time and although they were made to work against Emmaus St Leo’s they would have been happy to secure the four points and maintain a game break from the chasing pair of Therry Penola and Monash Gryphons. Daniel Giddings kicked for majors and the captain coach kicked three as Parade won by 31 points.

South Melbourne Districts hosted Therry Penola at Lindsay Hassett Oval and they were very accommodating hosts. South failed to register a major for the first three quarters and in that time Therry piled on 14.11. Matthew Costello and Justin Crotty kicked four each for the winners, 16

This week’s games have an added importance to them for the two sides outside the four simply must win if they want to play in September.

Monash Gryphons would have been happy with their efforts at Bulleen Templestowe last week and this week they are back at home to second placed Eltham Collegians. The Turtles were menacing dispatching Prahran Assumption last week but I am going to go for the Gryphons in an upset.

The other match of significance is fourth versus fifth. As mentioned above these two sides are almost identical in percentage terms and Old Paradians will travel to Therry Penola with a game advantage but I feel that will have evaporated come 4.45 tonight. Only the margin will determine who sits in the four.

Emmaus St Leo’s host bottom side La Trobe and if the Uni are to make a late charge for safety they would have to win this one. I can’t see this one happening though. And Emmaus should be able to secure a vital win in the bid for their own safety and Division 2 football next year.

DIVISION 3

Nick Wynne

LOGOS Bradford Cox wrote this in one of his darkest moments. “To go away and not look back and think of what the others say. To go ahead and change your life without regard to what is said, and everyone must do the same, you find yourself lost again. Forget the things you’ve left behind, through looking back you may go blind”.

Like Bradford, I’m a realist. I’m well aware that the season for a handful of teams in this division is probably over, but unlike others I’m not going to publicly write them off. I also realise that the number of people that read this article is probably in single digits (not including the poor guys at VAFA headquarters that have to edit it). Alas I just want to say thank you to those that read it week in week out. Like good old Daniel Byrne, who was thoughtful enough to say a few kind words about my column the other week, it really razzed me up.

The point of this little opening is to encourage those that may have been written off to keep on fighting, you never know who you may inspire.

It was a much better result for Ivanhoe this week, defeating UHS-VU in a semi-decent display of Australian Rules football. The Hoes managed to apply more frontal pressure than Uni have become accustomed to lately, and it showed. Uni weren’t going forward with any sort of authority, when they did the dour Ivanhoe defence were there to stop every foray. Big Moose got a handful (What’s going to happen when he kicks his ton?), while it was great to see Tim Williamson at his best.

Last time these two teams met, Hawthorn got their pants pulled down. In a horrid display, they couldn’t manage a major. It was a different story on Saturday. Hawthorn pulled out all the stops.

From the outset it was clear that they would use any tactic at their disposal to get a favourable result. While it was a scrappy game at times, it was 20

the inaccuracy of the Xmen that was the story of the day. St Francis had more scoring shots then the Hawks, but they still went down by five goals.

Disappointing.

Richmond hosted Aquinas, in what was a ripping game of Division 3 football. The game was always in the balance. In the end, it was Aquinas’ two late goals just before the final change that was the difference, turning a manageable eight point deficit into 20 at 3 quarter time. However Richmond, who were without leading goal scorer Seb Angus, tried hard in the last, but just couldn’t get over the line. At the last whistle, Aquinas led by 11 points.

Skull returned to the Elsternwick seniors this week, and low and behold a victory ensued. After a lengthy stint with the twos, the return of the Skull was well received by teammates and fans alike. It also resulted in a 78 point drumming of Power House. Last time these teams met they drew, in one of 2012’s great games. Fair to say it was a different game this week, the Wickers were never challenged, after kicking nine goals in the first quarter. In the absence of skipper Justin Hunter, Aaron Thornton stepped up and kicked nine big ones, right up the bracket.

Top of the table versus second bottom is never going to end well. Today was no different. I know it’s a terrible cliché, but it was like a train wreck... The Warriors did not act like their name sakes and they were so very, very disappointing, only managing to kick four goals for the game.

Considering they were kicking around in near perfect conditions up in beautiful Victorian wine country, there was no excuse. This game reminded me of the story of the two Eskimos.

They were sitting in a kayak freezing, so they lit a fire in the craft. It sank, proving once again that you can’t have your kayak and heat it too. Not hard to guess which team are the Eskimos.

It was another close game to finish off Round 12, Albert Park and Kew battled it out at Beaurepaire Pavilion. The Falcons were too slick for Kew, who left feeling pretty flat. The scoreboard fluctuated considerably throughout the game, and both sides had their chances. In the end Albert Park managed to get on top in the midfield, winning clearance after clearance in the second half thanks to the likes of Michael Boyd and Josh Strawczynski. For Kew, Wristy tried hard all day, as did Will Balme and Mick Henderson, but like an

DIVISION 4

Josh Gabelich

TIGERS ON FIRE As we progress into the final third of season 2012, it appears that the level of interest in Division Four football has rapidly increased across the Amateurs. And this can be attributed to one reason. The unblemished season that the South Mornington Tigers are having and look likely to have continues to spark a wide level of interest in their games each week and in turn the fortunes of the competition.

Twelve games down and the Tigers are still yet to taste the sour venom of defeat. It’s quite difficult to see any side knocking them off as they stroll towards a top two finish and therefore a double chance in September. Swinburne Uni are two games adrift the chart toppers and loom as the only realistic chance of testing the Tigers on game day.

Undefeated seasons are a rarity in any level of football. Teams have off day’s, that’s the nature of the beast. But this beast, South Mornington, appear increasingly likely to not let an off day result in anything short of the four points.

The Tigers twelfth straight victory of the season was chalked up against fellow top four certainty Point Cook on the weekend. The Bulldogs made arguably the toughest road trip in the Amateurs.

The 110km road trip to the Peninsula didn’t seem to strain the Dogs too badly in the opening term as they remained in touching distance at The Tigers fortress. However, a five goal to one-second term sent Point Cook into the rooms at half time deflated and made the task of dethroning the kings even harder. By the final siren a seven goal victory could have been far greater if the wayward Tigers had of made the most of their opportunities in front of goal. Nathan Brodie led the way for the home side with more than his fair share of disposals. For the Bulldogs, Mark Pozzuto and Keith Kavanagh were two of the visitor’s standouts.

Swinburne Uni is the only side capable of stopping the South Mornington juggernaut.

But for three and half quarters on Saturday, the Razorbacks were made to look anything but a genuine premiership contender. North Brunswick negated the students’ usual free flowing style and appeared likely to grind out one of the upsets of the season at Allard Park. After kicking just six goals up to the final break, Swinburne Uni were able to pull the rabbit out of the hat and boot five goals to just two behinds to come from seemingly no where to grab the points over the Bulls. Phil Wild and Nick Mauran led from the front all day for the Razorbacks and both played pivotal roles in the final term. For the home side, Phil Gagliano was damaging by hand and foot.

The recent hype surrounding Chadstone seems to be proving beneficial as the Synners produced one of the best performances in recent seasons.

Although another loss is not what they were after, Chadstone fought gallantly all day long against one of the most improved sides in the competition. Five goal losses aren’t usually glorified, but in the Synners case, this is hopefully another sign that they are on the right track. We all know how inspirational a breakthrough victory will be for them.

West Brunswick began this season as one of the premiership favourites. Two thirds of the season later and they look very unlikely to challenge for a finals position. However, on Saturday against a lacklustre Box Hill North outfit, the Magpies demonstrated why they can be so highly regarded.

The Magpies handed out the Demons an 80 point drubbing in a performance that reeked of a team who are sick and tired of underperforming. Bill Irving inflicted the most damage for the Pies with a best on ground five-goal performance.

losers, Luke Vandenakker was their only shining light on a disappointing day for the red and blue.

Similarly to West Brunswick, Mt Lilydale has been one of the biggest disappointments of 2012. They appeared every chance of going straight back up to Division Three in the pre season but nothing has gone right for the Rams this year. Injuries to critical big men haven’t helped their cause but that’s where the excuses end. On Saturday, premiership aspirant Eley Park was made to fight all the way for the four Points against a spirited Rams side. The four goal victory doesn’t tell the full story as the game was in the balance deep in to the final term.

THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2012

Today: North Brunswick hosts the improved Rams and will be keen to make amends for letting slip last weeks game against Swinburne Uni. The Razorbacks will be looking to regain some strong form and should do so out at Box Hill North. The improving Chadstone Synners will take on finals bound Point Cook in a game that could get quite ugly for the home side. Manningham face West Brunswick back at home in a must win game for both sides as the attempt to keep alight their finals aspirations. In the game of the round, Eley Park hosts the rampaging South Mornington juggernaut.

CLUB WAREHOUSE RISING STAR 2012 BREDE SECCULL - OLD HAILEYBURIANS Brede is a strong bodied inside midfielder who tackles with great furosity. He is an extremely hard working young man who’s very good form of late is no accident because of his extremely hard working attitude. At 189cm and 88kg’s he has added some real muscle to the Bloods midfield.

Having been born into the Haileybury community he has followed his Father and Uncle to the Bloods from a very young age.

He was an integral member of the Sandringham Dragons 2011 TAC cup premiership and was invited to last years State Combine held at Ethiad in October. He has had a productive season thus far spending time between Collingwood VFL and the OHAFC. Brede is a popular clubman and a great asset to the Bloods on and off the field.

* 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 KARA MITCHELL & JEN HOUSTON - UHS-VU Kara Mitchell Kara came to the club in 2010 with her partner who is a playing member of UHS-VU. Kara is a 4th year osteo student at RMIT University.

Her Infectious smile & attention to detail to help players get back on the park means she quickly became a favourite down at Brens oval.

Jen Houston Jen started with the club in 2011 coming down with Kara to lend a hand. Also a 4th year osteo student at RMIT her happy go lucky attitude to life was a bonus to her knowledge in getting players back & keeping players on the field.

Both always happy to attending a social function has helped them become not just our trainers but apart the glue that holds the club together. Kara & Jen were instrumental in helping the reserves to the 2011 premiership pull a lot more weight then a trainer normally would. Both can be seen at 8.30 before the Under 18’s & seen after the seniors finish working tirelessly & also on a Tuesday & Thursday. From everyone at UHS-VU we would be lost without you two lovely ladies.

RETRO

Geoff Reilley

12 MONTHS AGO – 2011 Old Essendon made a statement in Premier C with a key win over Rupertswood, 14.11 to 9.21 and now were only out of the top four on percentage, hot on the heels of Rupertswood.

With almost 7 goals ahead at half time it was always going to be a tough ask for Rupertswood whose kicking for goal did not help their chances. Best – Ryan, Henderson, Hutchesson, Flaherty (5), Jones (3), Bell (Essendon) and Gaunt, Collins, Grech, Smerdon (3), Smith, Hetherington (Rupertswood).

Bulleen Templestowe “broke their duck” when they easily accounted for Old Mentonians 20.9 to 8.13 in Division 1. The Bullants were now believing they could fight their way to eight or better and avoid the dreaded relegation but there was a lot of work to do to achieve this in the coming weeks. Best - Florance (4), Gaul (3), Edsall, Chivers, Considine, Sargent (BT) and Snow, stone, Myers-Snyders, Johnson, Duncan, Speers (OM).

Charlie Holst and James Jorgenson played their 150th games for Collegians. Charlie had tried out at VFL level and then became a very welcome addition to the Collegians squad and despite some serious facial injuries along the way was a highly respected and valuable player for the Lions. James arrived at Collegians straight from school and his size and power were of great benefit to Collegians and although regularly experiencing knee tendonitis James was a key players for his club.

5 YEARS AGO – 2007 Ormond’s accuracy (11.2) allowed them to hold a good lead at half time over Whitefriars 44

(5.10) in a very important game in C Section.

Important for Ormond in their quest to be a challenger for finals and for Whitefriars, to keep clear of relegation in a very even bottom half.

The Friars lifted in the second half but could not make up the leeway with Ormond running out winners 16.8 to 10.12. Best – Martinov (3), Keleher, McConvill, Upstill, Woodford, L Russell (Ormond) and Woods (3), R Pawlik, Northey, Power, Adgemis, Janson (Whitefriars).

Hampton Rovers were expected to win against Yarra Valley Old Boys given their respective positions on the D1 Section ladder but the YV boys took it right up to the Rovers and were only 3 points down at three quarter time. The Rovers finally found their expected form in the final term to kick away to a 12.13 to 8.7 victory and consolidated in third spot. Best – Carr, Duddy, McCarthy, Deboer, Fletcher, (HR) and Wines, Drew, Britt, Russell, R Yeo (4), S Yeo (YV).

10 YEARS AGO – 2002 In A Section, St Kevins Old Boys suffered another defeat in a horror run that had seen them slip right down the table. Old Ivanhoe came from behind at three quarter time to overrun the SKOBS 12.11 to 11.10. Best – Price, Oates, Orchard, Tieman, Lochran, Spoor (Old Ivanhoe) and Greenham, Purcell, Lucas, M Dollman, Hobart, Maguire (SKOBS).

Old Melburnians retained their top spot in B Section although Old Haileyburians kept up the pressure all day. The 5-point victory (11.15 to 12.4) was a wake up call for OM’s even though their performance throughout the season had been very good. Best – Berry, Hicks (3), Theodore, JnMiller, Kinsella, Mulquiney, (OM’s) and White, Graves (3), Forsyth, McMahon, G Smith, McKenzie (OH).

Terrific article in the Coaches’ Clipboard column by John Simpson, former Banyule and VAFA U19 Rep coach and the President of the THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2012

Coaches Association (AFCA VAFA) at that time.

The theme was “knowing when your time as coach is up” and was a very intelligent summary of what could often be a challenging period of a coaches’ life.

20 YEARS AGO – 1992 Commonwealth Bank held on to their position at the top of the C Section ladder by defeating St Kilda/South Caulfield 12.12 to 7.13 in a tough physical encounter. The Bank’s stronger start allowed them to maintain a handy lead for most of the game. Best – McDonald, Reid, T Maher, Short, A Maher, Cloke (Comm Bank) and Capiron, McGaw, Gilmour, Benke, Gleeson, La Fontaine (StK/Sth C).

A very close, fluctuating game occurred in D Section between St Kevins’ Old Boys and Caulfield Grammarians. SKOBS had a terrific third quarter to take the lead but Caulfield fought back late in the game to take the points 13.9 to 12.11. Best – Cox, T Royals, G Harrison, DiCrosta, Will, Horton (Caulfield) and M Olive, Beale, J O’Brien, Bendoricchio (3), Hagarty, Watkin (SKOBS).

One of Mazenod’s favourite sons, Adrian Green, became the first player for his club to reach the 250th game milestone. “Jacksy” had been part of the first team to represent Mazenod in the amateurs while still a student and was a willing worker off the field as well.

30 YEARS AGO – 1982 North Old Boys’ power in A Section was obvious as they demolished Old Scotch 23.23 to 6.8.

Best – Clark, Conti, Sabato (6), Borcich, Griffen, Horan (NOBS) and Mason, McGill, P Sherwen, MacMillan, Alexander, Brown (Scotch).

Good game in B Section between St Bernards and Old Brighton with the scores level at half time. Only 3 points in it at three quarter time but St Bernards were steadier in the last to win THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2012

17.19 to 14.21. Best – Smith, McAllister (4), K Mahady (5), McGuire, Royal, Angel (StB) and Cochran (6), Cornwell, Tate, Warnock, Kemp (Old Brighton).

40 YEARS AGO – 1972 St Bernards (5th) lost another chance to move into the top four when they went down by 11 points to a very determined Monash Blues by 11 points. Best – Lowcock (7), De Young, Flett, Amor (Monash) and Iannazzo, King and Wade (St Bernards).

Roger Wilson, a living legend at Old Brighton, recorded his 150th game. Big Roger was the popular captain/coach of the reserves and a prominent supporter for the senior team every week.

45 YEARS AGO – 1967 Graham Daff played his 250th game for Collegians and had represented Victoria on a number of occasions. Adam Shostak (AJAX), Cam McMillan (OGGS) and Graham Tozer (Old Brighton) recorded their 150th games.

John Fisher (Kew) and Mick Mulcahy (Old Xaverians) were appointed Captain and Vice Captain of the Victorian Carnival side respectively. John Fisher went on to later coach Victorian and Australian amateur teams.

A Section umpires for the day were Doherty, Hinton, Marks, Marshall and Murphy.

60 YEARS AGO - 1952 Well known Alphington and VAFA identity, Perc Adams, played his 100th game and in very sloppy conditions, Collegians, yet to win a game, drew with Uni Blacks in A Section, 4.4 to 3.10.

Andrew Leonard U19 Section 2

U19 REPORT We had hopes that this column would be filled with the glowing praise of our U19 representative side this week after we had shown our peers from the VCFL how to play football last Sunday.

Unfortunately it wasn’t to be. The VCFL were too strong for our representative team with the difference only highlighted in the final quarter.

Trailing by 11 points at three quarter time, the VAFA eventually lost by 50 points. An on that note we cast our eyes back a day earlier to the club football results.

U19 Premier Old Melburnians and University Blues kicked off proceedings on Sunday as the only game with a pre-midday start. The battle of the picket fenced grounds was held at the Junction Oval this time and the home team kicked nine-goals-to-one in the second half to turn a 14 point deficit into a full time margin of 40 points. Justin De Steiger and Harry Michaelmore were amongst a handful of players that kicked a couple of goals and were named best. Beaumaris jumped St Bernards at home and whilst the Bernies fought back for the rest of the day, catch up football was difficult in windy conditions but they ultimately fell short by a goal. In the record books it will go down as a win to St Bedes / Mentone Tigers by eight points over Old Scotch but it was inaccurate kick by the Tigers that prevented this from being a bigger margin. Alex Whalebone had BOG honours whilst Ed Walmsley managed four majors for the Cardinals. Top Side De La Salle had no issues with bottom side Uni Blacks. Blacks had 77% of their score in the first quarter in a tough day for the Uni boys, whilst De La kicked five, five, eight and six goals in each term to win by 151 points. Charlie Haley made it to double figures this week with 10 after his nine the previous week. Old Xaverians account for Fitzroy comfortably in a 61 point win.

48

Caulfield Grammarians replaced Werribee Districts in third spot by defeating the Tigers by two goals. The win draws them level on points with Werribee but a superior percentage sees them in third with the Tigers now back in fourth.

Old Haileybury missed a chance to join those two on seven wins when they lost at St Kevins by 31 points. The Bloods drop to fifth with that result and now have another competitor for finals action in Old Trinity who hung on to beat Old Carey by just two points at home. Carey kicked more goals but Trinity had more scoring shots in a contest that Carey led by nine points going into the final quarter. The final game wasn’t as close as the previous four games with Old Brighton giving Marcellin a touch up on their home turf by 82 points. Michael Tregear was lively kicking seven and Marshall Pascoe kicked three but you could throw a blanket over a host of players for the visitors as to who was best.

U19 Section 3 St Bernards got the day underway in the early start hosting Old Xaverians. Perhaps the boys were keen to enjoy the festivities of the club’s legend’s match later on, as they went down by 19 points to the visitors in a low scoring affair. Old Camberwell were at home to PEGS and those at Gordon Barnard will remember the bag of 10 that James Howells managed in an exhibition of forward play. For PEGS Duishan Perera was best in the 52 point loss. Northern Blues prevailed over Mazenod by just seven points in the top of the table clash. Mazenod will rue this one as a wasted opportunity kicking 5.15 to 8.4 but will feel confident against the Blues come finals time.

Collegians came to play at Ormond giving them a touch up by 128 points. I am led to believe that Collegians supporters had the line to Gordon Barnard open to see if Sam Hibbins’ 10 would be the bag of the day. Alas Hibbins had more team mates kicking goals had to settle for being equal best with Howells on the day.

THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2012

U19 South After a mountain of feedback appreciating that South came before North we will back up looking at this section first again. There were two close games two not so close. Hampton Rovers managed to double the club’s win tally for the year with a stirring win at St Bedes / Mentone Tigers by a goal. The Rovers have some good young talent but it was their more even spread of goal kickers that saw them over the line. A great result for the club. Monash Blues hosted St Mary’s Salesian and enjoyed the fruits of home ground advantage holding on for a nine point win. Peninsula made one of their shorter trips up to Beaumaris and won comfortably to defeat the home side by 70 points. Tom Shayler managed five goals and he was supported by Hayden Brodie who kicked four. For the vanquished, Kyle Mcdonagh managed to kick four. Parkdale Vultures and De La Salle completed the matches for the round with the Vultures having a strong win over De La 104 to 32 with Sean Hendricks best for the Vultures.

U19 North Old Geelong hosted Therry Penola to clear the dew from Como Park at 9.20 and a thriller was played out with the home side getting up by three points. Karey Taylor slotted five for the homeside but he was outdone by the visiting Hayden Rowe who grabbed six goals. There was a point the difference at quarter time, scores level at half time and Therry had 13 point lead going into the final break. However they couldn’t hold on with the OGs kicking five-goals-to-three in a pulsating final term. Williamstown CYMS had a good day at the office to defeat La Trobe University by 53 points at home. Whilst Ivanhoe have another goal kicker in their midst with Jai Swainger slotting seven majors on the way to a 104 point win over MHSOBs. MHSOBs were two players short all day so it was a good effort to kick five straight goals against the rampant Ivanhoe.

Editor Note: If clubs do not put the complete scores, best players and goal kickers in each week, then this column suffers and your team will receive no coverage other than the result. Please ensure you have submitted these by 6.00pm Saturday each week.

CLUB XVIII

Norm Nugent

UNPREDICTABLE Results in the unpredictable Round 12, served to intensify the quest for finals’ positions in both Sections.

North Old Boy’s/ St Patrick’s were undaunted by the home ground reputation enjoyed by Ivanhoe.

The “Combine” players proved too tall and too fast for Ivanhoe and they were never in danger of losing the game even though their final term effort must concern co – coaches Messrs Dinan and Tehan who will apply their legal disciplines to solve the problem. The final margin was 57 points in favour of North Old Boy’s/ St Patrick’s .Only two points separated Old Xaverians and Old Melburnians at half time in their top of the table clash on the Junction Oval. The third term saw the Xaverians build a 15 point lead by the last change.

The Melburnians managed to cut the deficit by six points as the fortunes fluctuated in the last quarter before the Xaverians triumphed by nine points. Old Melburnians were well served by Theodore Code with six goals. In Ignatian terms, Theodore had gained glory but his team lost!! The Darling Park tenants, De La Salle and Prahran/ Assumption staged a close contest in which the “Four Blues” greater accuracy enabled them to hold the lead for the last three quarters on their way to victory by 31 points. Again the “Four Blues” had Jason Storer, Mark Ploenges and Craig Berger among their best. A sterling last quarter effort saw Therry Penola win their first match with a seven point win over Fitzroy who again wilted at the business end of the game. St Bernard’s won by forfeit from Williamstown C.Y.M.S. and Monash Blues had the Bye..

led by 19 points at the last change. This was also the final margin as the teams were equal scorers in the final quarter. In an early morning match, Hawthorn regained composure and outplayed Old Geelong to win by 38 points. The defeat saw Old Geelong slide to third. The first half of the Kew versus Richmond “Snakes” match provided an equal contest. Then after half time, the “Snakes” took control as their pace and accurate kicking came to the fore. By the last change, the “Snakes” had eliminated their four point half time deficit and had gone to a 30 point lead, upon which they built in the last quarter before winning, by 45 points. Richmond “Cardinals” led throughout against Old Paradians, who trailed by 13 points at the long interval. After an even third quarter, the “Cardinals” were stung into action by stern words

by Coach Tim. Pritchard and Manager, “Sandy” Robertson. They responded by then holding the Paradians scoreless and by recording victory by 48 points. Therry Penola moved back to second place with a 71 point win over University High School Old Boys/ V.U.T. Ruckman and past pupil, Adam Carroll and veteran goalsneak, Ray. Steer (8 goals) were among the Therry Penola best.

Old Geelong v Old Paradians Richmond Cardinals v Therry Penola Richmond Snakes v Bulleen Templestowe UHS-VU v Kew

THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2012

Ivanhoe should record their first win in many Rounds by defeating Williamstown C.Y.M.S., whose season has been ravaged by injury. St Bernard’s should be able to gain valuable percentage at the expense of Fitzroy, who struggle to play out a full match. Old Melburnians should comfortably defeat Monash Blues and third placed North Old Boys/St Patrick’s should build valuable percentage by defeating near neighbours, Therry Penola .On form, Old Xaverians should be able to reverse the result of the 2011 Grand Final by defeating De La Salle. Prahran/ Assumption has the Bye. Despite their recent good form, I cannot see Eley Park having the necessary skill to defeat leaders, Hawthorn. University High School Old Boys/ V.U.T. have proven competitive without being able to attain more than one win. On the other hand, Kew proved uncompetitive after half time last week. Today on the bigger Brens Oval, I select the

THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2012

“Green and Tans” to defeat the brown and gold of Kew. Old Geelong should win well over Old Paradians whose running fitness will be tested on the wide wings of Como Park. Although Bulleen Templestowe’s season has not gone to plan, they should take the points against a confident Richmond “Snakes”. The afternoon match should provide a guide to the finals as fourth placed Richmond “Cardinals” play second placed Therry Penola. The “Cardinals” if they are going to win must play out the four quarters unlike what they did at Bundoora last Saturday. I also doubt that the “Snakes” can nullify Ray. Steer for the whole match and Adam Carroll should control the aerial duels to give Therry Penola runners first use of the ball.
