FOOTY A SOLUTION, NOT THE PROBLEM The events in the Northern Football League’s Under 17 match between the Lalor Stars and Lalor Bloods exposes issues for society much broader than behaviour problems of footballers.

I am sure it was not the intention of those two clubs that adolescents in their charge behave in a violent and aggressive manner that led to some leaving in a paddy wagon while others left by ambulance.

No doubt these clubs are led by people seeking to give young men an opportunity to enjoy playing our great game. Yet despite these efforts, the behaviour of a few of these lads escalated into an all-in brawl, which has tarnished the reputation of the two clubs, the league and the game.

The VAFA doesn’t have a junior competition as such but does have fifty odd teams playing in either U18 or U19 football. The volunteers who administer these teams for our clubs play a magnificent role, not just for their club, but for society. All young men are challenged as they transfer from a disciplined and somewhat regimented school environment into the relative freedoms of university, TAFE or jobs. They have left behind the structured lifestyle of school for an environment of greater choice.

The one constant through this period can be the football club. This may be the one facet of life where things are stable. Every week, there is discipline required to come to training at a specified time, to organise for match day and to play in a team with rules and structures. This structure plays an important role in the maturation from adolescent to adult. It is in this environment too that adolescents are able to display their natural aggression. Unfortunately in some, this aggression is difficult to control.

In the VAFA, we have noticed this season a decrease in the number of teams in our junior level. We are aware of the difficulties clubs have in finding the players to fill those teams that have survived. For most clubs, it is a yearly battle that affects long-term viability. The volunteers who give of their time should be applauded as they are doing so much for society.

Every effort was made at the start of the season to ensure the competitiveness of our Under 19 competition however it is an impossible task to predict the standard of each of the sections.

Playing in matches that are not competitive can lead to frustration and there is little incentive for players to continue backing up each week in the full knowledge that they are in for another 100 point drubbing.

Consequently the VAFA Board has decided to adjust the competitions for the remainder of the season. At the conclusion of this weekend’s matches, two teams from each of the sections will be re-fixtured to the section below to allow for greater competitiveness in matches.

Whilst we may be appalled by the events at Lalor last week, we shouldn’t think of it as a “football problem”. Given that 90 per cent of those in our prisons have never played a team sport, we need more football, not less.

Clubs are administered by good people with honest values who are making a great contribution to society. These people are endeavouring to provide that consistency and structure to young men who are getting very little of it at home.

Parents must continue to provide leadership for their children and not leave it to the few club people who give their heart and soul each week.

THE STRONGEST SURVIVE Friday’s severe weather cast a pall over expectations of fast and furious football, but Saturday dawned calm and brightly enough too and the grounds were sufficiently firm to promise some spectacles.

Only at the Snakepit did the scoreboard not register 150 points, but the result there was a twin turnaround from last week. St Bernard’s, smashed last week and Uni Blues, close to their best , met in a struggle of wills. Regular combatants in practice matches over recent years, they met with four critical points on the line. The Varsity travelled without Nash and Caldow, who had kicked ten between them against Carey and the Snow Dogs kept their other scoring options sufficiently quiet.

The Bernies booted six in the first term and that, as they say, was that. Andrew Merrington was strong for the Pitters and Tom and Simon Caven were ever reliable. Al Austin came up trumps for Blues and Llewyn Butler showed promise, but the help wanted for ruckmate to Jack Watts goes unanswered still. Where have you gone, Tim Muhlebach, Gil McLachlan, Mick Yeo, Tim Standish?

Xavs travelled to Brindisi Street and opened with six goals. Dominant from the outset all over the ground, they threatened to inflict some real damage on the Tiges. Beat them they did, but by the same margin that separated them at the first change. Pat Kean continued his fine form and Michael Curcio was a dangerous forward, while Luke Wintle, who would probably rather go forward, battled hard in the ruck. Michael Darvell was brilliant early, while Nicks Wynne and Dimattina gave the Red and Blacks plenty of dash from defence. When St Bede’s Mentone Tigers threatened to finally seize the initiative, it was Wynne who burst through the middle and slammed a long goal to put Xavs back on the rails.

Steve Lawrence returned to Camberwell but the result was not as friendly as the greeting. Old Scotch did his Caulfield Grammarian team no 2

favours, inflicting on it a sixth successive loss. It is a new experience for a club that has won so many games over Lawrence’s previous three years. While the Fieldsmen have not plumbed such depths in a while, the Cards have not ridden as high for some time either. Lachie Hill, Al Pike and Will Strange proved valuable around the sticks and big Max van den Broek returned to add some height. At the other end, the Fieldsmen seem to be lacking that big target to keep the scoreboard ticking over.

When it slowed Scotch in the third term, Caulfield was itself becalmed and while it took its chances in the fourth, so too did the Cards. Matt Kremmer was best for the visitors and Tom O’Sullivan and Louis O’Keefe strong contributors.

Collegians were missing key forwards but Carey had a casualty room full of stars too, with eight of its best twenty-two in bandages. The Panthers began the brighter and finished the stronger, but fell short by just a solitary point with the ball headed into their forward arc. A tough loss, their second in this young season by less than a goal, and it stung. Damien Yze kicked five and Jarrod Reid two, while Nick Richardson continued to impress. Still, whatever the makeup of the Lions lineup, they are hard to beat. Competition for spots promotes excellence and this day they had it from Chris Blumfield, Nick Ries and the much under-rated James Kondarovswkis, while Cam Lee is finding Premier football much to his liking.

For the second week running, De La Salle’s kicking for goal was prodigal. It could hardly have blamed the conditions, given that Old Trinity didn’t miss at all, their only minor score being a rushed effort.

The Blue and Golds showed more system, more run and more power, but as had happened last week, they trailed midway through the third term.

Andrew Ramsden booted his sixth and then the Ts kicked another to see them go ahead by 18 points.

Enough? Well it was for De La, who then unleashed TODAY SELECTIONS IN BOLD Collegians v St Bernards De La Salle v Old Carey Caulfield Grammarians v Old Xaverians Old Trinity v Old Scotch University Blues v St Bedes/Mentone Tigers

a 77-1 point assault to smash the Greens to pieces.

The efforts of Ts’ young guns Callum Pohl, Matt Brown and Eddie Weatherson, not to mention the aforementioned ageless colt at the goalfront went for nought as De La defended, repelled and linked like a team for whom September beckons.

Sam Williams and his younger brother Jake were splendid and left-footed Lukes Jarvis and Semmel superb. Sam Pickett, Matt Moore and Nick Roberts were always dangerous and with Leigh Harrison and Brett Eddy not too far away, things are indeed looking up.

With the Queen’s Birthday bye next week, this is often the round where teams rest a few of dubious fitness. Nice chance, if you have that luxury: if not, you soldier on and hope the one-week break is enough. Then there is the Big V U23 team, which plays Sunday and will affect selection of many clubs. Old Trinity welcomes Old Scotch to renew their rivalry. The Cards have struggled at Marles

but will likely get up here unless the Greens use the spaces, which they didn’t do well last week.

Caulfield hosts Xavs and an upset here seems unlikely, with the Red and Blacks having too many options up forward and the meanest defence in the caper. St Bernard’s will be up and about but will find it tough going at the Trott against Collegians.

Blues return home and St Bede’s Mentone Tigers come in. The Brindisians always get up for this one and will be tough. Should the Varsity fail here, the road ahead appears long, winding and all uphill.

De La hosts Old Carey and with the Panthers’ list so thin, anything but a comfortable home win would surprise. Then again, VAFA football so often does.

TERMINAL VELOCITY Everyone loves a winner, but how long can you keep hurtling along, backing up week after week? Unbeaten runs are a rare phenomenon in this day and age; Port Melbourne’s stretch of 28 consecutive wins was commanding but ultimately unsustainable. Why, in the modern era, is it so scarce? Perhaps the playing field has levelled through advanced technology and innovations in recovery, support and the good old swab test. Maybe there’s no such thing as a psychological advantage anymore either, as a new generation thumbs its nose at traditional rivalries. Nevertheless, the Tontine has a firm place in our nation’s sporting psyche – we love the notion of a last-man-standing contest within a contest. Named after an archaic 17th century investment scheme (where the final dividend was paid, literally, to the last bloke alive) the Tontine in Premier B sees unbeaten St Kevin’s on a direct collision course with equally un-blemished Uni Blacks in their looming R9 showdown. Scurvy, typhoid and pistols at twenty paces notwithstanding.

SKOB’s winning streak was very nearly killed off last weekend anyhow in a cracking four-quarter contest with Beaumaris at TH King. McNicholas and Carroll rotating the ruck were standouts for Beauy, while Edgar (3) ran amok for the tricolours. Trailing by five points at the half, St Kevin’s regained control of the clearances in the third and threw cult hero Jock Marchesani (5) into the forward line where he kicked three straight goals – firing up his team-mates, the freezing crowd and the famous Skobber BBQ all at once.

Captain Anthony Lynch plugged holes all along the spine as Waldron went off with a quad and Bishop anchored the last line of defence just as the irrepressible Beauy forwards Gower (4) and Casey-Leigh (2) got creative. The home side clung to a two-point lead at the lemon break, coach Harford measured in his message to break the final stanza down into “five minute patches.”

In a thrilling finish with six lead changes and high drama as the Sharks found themselves down a man, the crowd clutched its collective thumping chest as Lynch kicked the sealer in his 150th game, St Kevin’s victorious by a solitary point.

A reinvigorated Old Brighton side defied early reports of its demise to push Uni Blacks in a spirited display at the varsity. Defenders Edge and Homann held Blacks to just three first half goals and a solid third term saw the visitors poised for an unthinkable upset. But the Uni’s stronger bodies coped better in the wet, winning the ruck contests and breaking tackles. Scott Weekley dismissed the slippery conditions to gather and deliver with pinpoint accuracy, finding Jordy Foster who kicked five in his inimitable, laconic style. A couple of near-misses and a poster put paid to the ‘Tonners dying efforts, Blacks finishing stronger to win by three goals.

The Jackas arrived at Guest Road and promptly put the Krushers in a death-grip, keeping them goal-less in the first term and only poor conversion quelled a bigger blowout. Jake Lew was damaging with a bag of six and Adam Caplan took a sensational hanger to cap off a great effort around the ground. Rod Jetta booted three for Oakleigh with Pat DiSiervi and Chris Lamb among their best.

Scoreless at the Junction Oval in the first quarter, Old Ivanhoe’s woes were looking fatal as Old Melburnians burned them in a comfortable 46 point win. Well served by Jeremy Beaumont (3) in a best on ground performance, OMs were barely challenged as Toms Bachet and Hywood had days out. Michael Mitris (2) toiled hard for the Hoes, for whom the bye can’t come quickly enough.

The surprise of the round was Werribee’s onTODAY SELECTIONS IN BOLD Beaumaris v AJAX Old Brighton v Old Melburnians Old Ivanhoe v University Blacks St Kevins v Old Haileybury Werribee Districts v Oakleigh

the-road battle with Old Haileybury that saw the Tigers lead by three goals at the half. The Bloods returned fire, breathing life back into a fantastic third term kicking five-zip to take an 11 point lead. But underestimate the west at your peril: they’re new, brash, and apparently didn’t get the memo about psychological advantages.

Wayne Pelar was in vintage form, young Bolang impressed and Schibeci kicked four as the ‘Bees snuffed the home side by 4 goals. For Old Haileybury Lillie was solid again in the ruck and Corey Millard (3) added typical class.

THIS WEEK As we head into Lizzie’s birthday hiatus next weekend, most clubs will welcome the chance to refresh, regroup, and in some cases totally reincarnate. AJAX are hot & cold but unlikely to strike against the Sharks at home, while Uni Blacks

go into the break with a light training run over at Pine Lodge. In a traditional gloves-off stoush between district clubs, the Tigers at home should dominate the Krushers, while old boys, Brighton and Grammar, will be anything but genteel in a close affair at the Beach (before they all skip off to the snowfields swinging hands). The St Kevin’s faithful may need paddles and pillows on hand, however, at TH King as they host Old Haileybury … another close encounter might just see them topple over in the Tontine stakes.

MARCELLIN GRABS TOP SPOT We are now a third of the way through the season and an outright top four has emerged in Premier C Section, with Fitzroy’s win taking them clear of Banyule, PEGS and Rupertswood in fourth place.

The result out at Brunswick Street also gives us a new ladder leader heading into Round 7, with Marcellin overtaking the Wellers in top spot.

Mazenod welcomed Hampton Rovers to Central Reserve in a battle of the two bottom sides.

And by the final siren, the Nodders had lifted themselves well out of the danger zone, with a 173-point win. Rees Thomas, David Regan and Chamath Jayaweera combined for sixteen goals, with another of the Nodders’ eight multiple goal scorers, Tim Bourbon, having probably his best game in what has been a scintillating 2012 for him so far. The leaders for the Rovers were the standouts, vice-captain, Ed Turner, contributing all of their three goals and their skipper, Leigh Fletcher, again being named their best player.

Tom Youl and Matt Innes also played well in their 200th games for the club.

PEGS made the trek down to Gerry Green Reserve to take on the Vultures and Parkdale won by 82 points, in a performance that would have delighted Sam Radford. Matthew Boland was back for the home side and booted another nine, taking his tally to seventeen in the past two weeks. David Robbins returned and dominated for the Vultures and young gun Lewis Emmerson was another standout. PEGS would have headed home a bit shocked at how easily they were taken apart, after heading into the match in great form. Sean Towner, Chris Goullet and Dave Forrest, with his four goals, did their best to keep the Grammarians in the game.

The Eagles soared to top spot on the ladder, on the back of a 40-point win at the college against 6

the Ashers, and other results falling their way.

The damage was really done in the first term, with Marcellin opening up a 26-point lead at the change of ends and holding the Blues at arm’s length throughout the day. Monash challenged at different stages, but it seemed like the Eagles always had an answer and they were able to extend their lead in the final quarter by holding the Ashers goalless. Marcellin’s Jarrod Carlson was best on for the second week in a row and big Anthony Beaini controlled the airways. The Blues received good service from Andrew Hickey and George Smyth.

Banyule headed out to Sunbury to take on Rupertswood in a critical game for both teams.

The deck out at Salesian College had handled the constant rain in the lead-up very well and it was the visitors, with five enforced changes from Round 5, who got the jump in a fantastic first quarter. Adam Barclay celebrated his selection to the VAFA senior squad by kicking four of the side’s seven, which allowed Banyule to take a 28-point lead into quarter time. This advantage was extended to a match-winning 54 points by the ten-minute mark of the second quarter, before Rupertswood started to get into the game, cutting the margin back to seven goals at the main break. As conditions deteriorated in the second half, it turned into a battle of attrition, with the Bears showing how valuable early goals in those conditions can be, only adding two to their tally in the second half, but still holding on for a comfortable win.

with a bag of seven and Michael Christian was cutting off everything across half back. Rupo would be disappointed with their start to the game and ruing some missed opportunities in the last quarter, however the work-rate of Todd Podolczak and John Corso couldn’t be questioned.

Old Camberwell had their first defeat for 2012, in a topsy-turvy contest at Brunswick Street.

The Roys opened up a 23-point lead in the first quarter, only to see it swiftly erased, as the rain came and the Wellers piled on 6.1 to 0.1 in the second stanza. It was an arm wrestle in the third, with Old Camberwell’s good kicking allowing them to maintain a slender advantage with 11.5 against Fitzroy’s wasteful 8.13. Going into the wind in the last quarter and with the rain returning, the Roys dug in, finally taking

BIG V

Matthew Torney

BIG V MEMORIES With Qld and NSW rugby fans in the midst of state-of-origin fever the perennial question is being asked of the AFL: “Should they draw the state battle lines again?”

To be rewarded with a Big V jumper is a great honour and one not to be taken lightly. There is no question in my mind as to the strength of the representative concept. Whilst the AFL state-oforigin regime differs from that supported by the VAFA, there are distinct parallels.

A brief chat with anyone associated with the Big V, at any level of the game, is all it would take to see how much they value the opportunity to pull on the famous jumper. It’s a shame the AFL’s professional pursuits have cannabalised state of origin football. For now, at the grassroots level we’ll contently continue to enjoy the representative experience.

I’ve been fortunate enough to wear the jumper on a few occasions. A few weeks back, fellow Big V Club member Ryan Colbert gave a great account of our recent campaigns against the best from the VCFL. The representative agenda provides a great platform to showcase our cohesive, highly skilled and free flowing brand of football – there is no question it brings out the best in us. Our narrow win in Shepparton last year only served to validate the long-standing argument that the VAFA’s best are as good as anyone else’s.

opportunity to share war stories and compare notes with players from different levels of the VAFA - the spirit we developed as a group helped shape what will remain an unforgettable tour.

For mine, the trip’s richest experience was our game against the All-Ireland team on the hallowed turf of Croke Park. The “Croker” is steeped in history and in somewhat of pre game treat, ‘renowned’ Irish historian Michael Sholly regaled us with stirring accounts of the 1916 Easter Rising and the “Bloody Sunday” massacre that took place on the stadium site.

We appropriately recognised the historical significance of the ground by letting the Irish run riot. We managed to salvage a couple of “overs” in the final stanza but Ireland’s best gave us a lesson. We took great heart from the fact the very same Irish team managed to clean-sweep the International Rules series against the AFL only a couple of weeks later.

The hybrid game took a bit of getting used to, particularly evident with our method of disposal. Whilst a round ball will always bounce true, it won’t necessarily conduct itself in the same manner off the boot. We sprayed a few in the early games but by tours end we were a reasonably polished outfit, preferring to move the ball by hand with break-neck speed.

In October last year, I was honoured to captain the VAFA’s inaugural tour of Ireland. It provided an opportunity for us to showcase our brand on an international stage - it truly was a once in a lifetime experience.

This was showcased in our final hit-out against Donaghmore Ashbourne. None did it better than Cam Lee and Jack Hellier, who relished the dynamic brand of football. The evergreen onball unit of David Biggs and Cam Howat put in “all corners” efforts with Gareth Snow and Michael Christian continuing their defensive showcase.

Our backline was also well served by Banyule back pocket Dave Drapac, whose dour game proved stiffer than the winds of the Celtic Sea.

Long standing coach Dean Anderson spearheaded the tour. He was ably supported by Old Xavs great, Michael Blood, and former AFL hardnut, Luke Beveridge. The team had a good mix of young and old, and included players from four sections and fifteen VAFA Clubs. It was a great

We triumphed against Ashbourne to turn the tour ledger in our favour, winning 3 of 5 games.

What we may have lacked in knowledge and application of the finer points of the Gaelic game, we more than adequately made up for with endeavour.

THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2012

We were given a rousing reception by the hosts in the after-match. After each game, we would share a meal in clubrooms and appreciate the first class hospitality. We often struggled deciphering the Irish dialect but would enjoy sharing a few stories with players and supporters alike. We developed a great rapport with the locals who would enjoy reminding us of our convict history, we in turn chose to highlight our tans, dental plans and the fact we didn’t have any red heads in our team.

The Irish were genuine with their friendliness and even more genuine, if not forthright, in their efforts to share a drink. We obliged gratefully and revelled in the opportunity to enjoy some traditional Irish fare and a few local stouts. Big V selector Michael Blood chose the Ashbourne after-match as his platform to bring the house down with a Guinness-fuelled rendition of Neil Diamond’s “Sweet Caroline”. It sparked a standing ovation and helped set the scene for a long night of celebration – it was a fitting finale to the tour.

The tour had a great balance of competitive games, with sufficient time for sightseeing and embracing all things Irish. We kissed the Blarney Stone, toured countless cathedrals and enjoyed a few nights out in Temple Bar. For me however, it was the opportunity to bond with players from a broad cross-section of the VAFA competition that’ll leave a legacy. The team developed a real sense and camaraderie and spirit - our unique victory celebrations were testament to this. St Bede’s on-baller Jack Hellier choreographed a priceless and very Irish victory song and dance that we all embraced. It was very odd in its theatrical styling but hilarious in its often misguided interpretation.

The trip in its entirety will be long remembered by those lucky enough to have shared the experience – there is no question we’ll all look back on this as one of the pinnacles of our football careers. The stories of our trip will be retold and relived by the boys for generations to come.

THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2012

The tour served to evolve the excellent reputation the VAFA holds today as an association of skill, integrity and team cohesion.

In a time where VAFA clubs efforts to recruit and maintain their talented crops of youngsters have been oft threatened, and sometimes thwarted by the suburban cheque book, having a dedicated representative program provides a priceless bargaining chip for Amateur clubs.

With the rare exception of winning a premiership, representing the Big V is the highest honour available to VAFA footballers - it truly is something to be cherished – it is definitely an experience that money could never, nor will ever buy.

WHAT’S WRONG WITH WILLY? After a sustained period of success, featuring back-to-back premierships in 2008 and 2009, the Williamstown CYMS Football Club has suddenly fallen on difficult times. Having last season missed the finals by percentage only, not even the most pessimistic of observers – inside or outside the club – would have foreseen a 0-6 start to the 2012 season. And as someone who played with the club, I am constantly being asked “What’s wrong with Willy?”

The first and most obvious answer to that question is “injuries”. Yes, all clubs cop them, but Willy has had a torrid run of casualties this season. Last week, 25 players were unavailable, which made it a meritorious effort to field a Clubbies team. The injury situation has been compounded by the fact that they have been to key players. Another issue has been recruiting.

Over the summer, the club also lost four of its best to the lure of the coin, a battle which most Ammos clubs face. Filling the big shoes of the departed has proved difficult.

Thus, the CYs have fielded an even more youthful outfit this season. These maturing bodies have been unable to compete for sustained periods with the more seasoned teams such as NOBs and Peninsula. But there were positive signs in last week’s defeat against the visiting Pirates, particularly in the first half. The Pirates were given a scare early, but away after half-time to record a comfortable 87-point win, spearheaded

by Shaun Payze (6 goals) and Stefan Barbour (5). The fate of Williamstown’s season probably rests in its next three matches, when it plays Glen Eira, Ormond, and St John’s. At the half-way point, we will all know if Willy is destined for the drop, or whether something can be salvaged from the wreck.

Old Mentonians celebrated skipper Brad 10

Norton’s 100th game in style, knocking over Whitefriars by five goals at Mordialloc.

Coincidentally, it was also Friars skipper Michael Mirabella’s ton. A couple of Panther majors late in the first term gave the hosts a buffer which the Friars were never quite able to overcome.

Mentonians, with Warwick Stone dominating the ruck, and defenders Ben Johns and Eliot Macquire on top, extended their lead to an imposing 47 points at three-quarter time and it was virtually game over. Best for the visitors, who battled on until the end, were Emille Abdallah, Dan Hogan and debutant Damien Loh. A disappointing second-half fade out meant Ormond could not build on the previous week’s heroics. Eight points to the good at half-time, the Unicorns made it two in a row, finishing the game full of running with a seven-goal to three second half. Best for the Monders were Matt Oaten and Boyd Upstill, whilst for MHSOB it was Luke Campbell and Will Taft. The Unicorns have now moved up to sixth place, and look set to cause some headaches for top teams.

The bigger and stronger bodies of North Old Boys – St Patrick’s proved the difference against the younger St John’s team at Doveton. The aerial power of forwards Matt Keown (7 goals) and Scott Sleep (5) was more than a handful for JOCs defenders, and the NOBs had put the issue beyond doubt by half-time, leading by 9 goals; it was a margin they maintained throughout the second half. Best for JOCs were Rhys Dyker and Ryan Thomas.

Forward Paul Ellis (9 goals) kicked his second consecutive bag in Old Geelong’s destruction of Glen Eira. The Saints had no answer to the more skilful Oggers who, when they win, are winning big.

Preview: There are actually two matches of the day today, the results of which will give us a little more insight into the make-up of the final four.

Whitefriars have had only one win in the past month, and so will be looking to prove they are contenders rather than pretenders when they host NOB-SP. I am expecting a return to form for the Friars at home. The second big match takes place at Como, where Old Geelong will be eager to prove their finals bona fides against a top team. I reckon the Oggers may well be fired up for this encounter, and so I am tipping them to cause a minor upset over the Panthers.

At the other end of the table, an interesting contest looms between Glen Eira and Williamstown. I expect the Saints, at home, to overcome the CYs in a match which has huge relegation ramifications. Down the coast, Peninsula should continue on its merry way against the inconsistent Ormond, whilst the Unicorns will make it three in a row in accounting for St John’s.

Smokie says: As an old forward, it warms my heart to see big bags of goals still being kicked by the spearheads in this competition!

PERFECT NO MORE The 2000 Essendon Bombers are, and will always be considered arguably the greatest team in AFL history. Boasting players in the ilk of Smokin’ Joe Misiti, James Hird, Matthew Lloyd and Damian Hardwick, the Bombers were coasting along to become just the second team in VFL/AFL history to complete the home and away season undefeated.

8 days from the close of the season, on an unusually balmy Friday evening, a left-foot snap from Western Bulldog Chris Grant shattered the aspirations of a blemish free season for the dons.

While they would go on to win the premiership 4 weeks later, conceding that one solitary game in 2000 continues to haunt the Essendon faithful to this day.

The sentiment of a perfect season may not be as profound, nor the consequences as dire but 12 years on, in a competition a few grades lower than the top echelon, a side has been looking to repeat the feat that Essendon came so agonisingly close to in 2000.

Bulleen Templestowe, with names like Cherbakof, Pace and Khouri had been untouchable this season, disposing of teams at will, the dreams of a perfect season snowballing with each victory.

Hosting Old Paradians this week, the match should have been a formality, a mere stepping-stone in their quest for magnificence. But akin to that fateful Friday night in 2000, David Boundy and his merry men proved the villains in Bulleen Temp’s fairy tale inflicting their first loss of the season by 15 points. Daniel Giddings was absolutely sensational for the visitors, assisted by good mates Luke Dore and Sean Miller. For the now defeated Bulleen Temp, Rob Edsall and Oliver Schmidt tried all day.

Emmaus St Leos exacted the biggest upset of the round, dismantling an undisciplined and inaccurate Monash at Bennettswood Reserve by 15 points. Buoyed by an astonishing final term last week, St Leo’s matched the top-4 hopefuls Monash 12

in all facets of the ground, a fracas and subsequent goal at half time the only reason for the Gryphons slender lead at the break. St Leo’s all but put the contest away shortly after the main break, piling on 4 unanswered goals and an unassailable lead in the process. Christopher Beluszar dominated all day; kicking 5 goals and sending the female fans crazy with his carefully and regularly oiled biceps.

For Monash, Kye Cherien was back to his best and fairest ways and Ivan Nuguid is relishing the move down back.

The news of a faltering Bulleen Templestowe added elation to Prahran-Assumption’s 71-point drubbing of St Mary’s Salesian, percentage now the only differential between the two powerhouses at the top of ladder. Skipper Adam Sleight was once again unstoppable, adding 8 goals to his season total of 29 while the usual suspects in James Muster and Matty Pell were sublime for the victors.

Sid Jones, Nick Curwood and Nick Baum did their best to negate the lead for St Mary’s.

Therry Penola stayed in reach with the top 4 after a narrow win against an improved La Trobe University at John Pascoe Reserve. La Trobe desperate to elevate themselves off the floor of the competition and Therry determined to throw their hat in the ring for finals contention, the contrast between the two sides should have been far greater than the 8 points at games end.

La Trobe, now a shadow of their early season mediocrity, managed to stay within an arms length of the better-drilled and superior Therry Penola throughout the day, only relinquishing the game in the dying moments of the 4th verse. Jack McMeel slotted 4 goals in his best performance of the year for the students while Matthew Costello did one better, helping himself to a Michelle for the victors.

boarding and mild electrocution surfaced during the week on the back of 2 consecutive fourth quarter capitulations. While the severity of punishment has probably been inflated, a gruelling week on the track saw South Melbourne compile the best final term of their season, outscoring Eltham 7 goals to 2. Trailing by 44-points at the last break, deservingly so, the bloods were without a chance. After the break, Seb Mahoney was given the 50-metre arc as his canvas in and the artist got straight to work, slotting 3 unanswered goals in quick succession giving South Melbourne the faintest of heart beats. Alas, a late steadier from the Turtles would ensure no fairytale would ensue, the Turtles eventual winners by 13 points. Kevin Tutty joined Sebastian Mahoney in the best for the Bloods while Sabastian Ciavola responded to criticism, slotting 7 in a best afield display.

THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2012

Looking at this week’s games, I’m selecting Therry Penola over an out-of-sorts Monash Gryphons and Emmaus St Leo’s to continue on their merry way with a comfortable win over St Mary’s. The confidence from last week’s win will help guide Old Paradians to victory over Eltham and Prahran Assumption should make light work of South Melbourne despite 3 players in Finn Tiernan, Gary Simm and Marko Stefanidakis celebrating their 100th game for the Bloods. Closing out the round, Bulleen Templestowe will firmly assign the bottom rung to La Trobe University.

DAYS I don’t know who’s behind, the wheel. Sometimes I feel like that I don’t know, the deal. When I tell you how, I feel. Believe me when I say, it’s real. Ignorant people liken a season of football to running a marathon. I disagree. In my opinion it’s more like the aforementioned lyrics. For example we are now one third through this season and the only thing we have really learnt is that, it’s real.

It could have been a lot worse on Saturday for the Power House, who travelled to the Zoo on Saturday. UHS-VU had 29 scoring shots to their 11, but unfortunately for the Uni boys they couldn’t take a leaf out of President Berlusconi’s book and put them away. It was still quite a sizable win for Uni High which consolidates its position in the top two. Mitch “Pistol” Pearce and Mark “Fridge” Roberts were both brilliant all day.

For the House, the defeats are starting to pile up.

And while the darkness of winter begins to creep closer, a few wins are vital before a late charge up the ladder is possible.

The only creeping going on at Yarra Valley this week will be from Jordy Canham who was so razzed-up by his mark of the year contender that later that night he made the Ringwood RSL dance floor his own and was again seen flying high. Sam Savage was everywhere for the Bushrangers in his 200th game, kicking four goals.

It was fitting that he saluted with a long bomb after the final siren to make it a 103 point victory.

Kew couldn’t match the endeavour shown by the numero uno and got beaten in all aspects. For the Grizzly Bears making the finals this year may be as tough as salmon fishing in the Yemen.

And speaking of swimming, what about Grant Hackett, what an effort by him last October!

We’ve all had a few sherbets at the races before, but I doubt anyone would be able to flip a grand piano over with one hand – and with his baby allegedly in the other. Must be strong I guess.

So it does prove then, that following that damn 16

black line all day every day in the monotonous, repetitive efforts of chasing the end of the pool will get to you eventually. Thankfully for Grant’s kids, they’ll be 12 months older when the next Spring Carnival comes to town. But I digress – how about those Hoers?

Ivanhoe made their way up to third spot in what was a funny game of football. In the dry conditions early, St Francis X were very good, used the ball cleanly and were able to break away to a 30 odd point lead. Then the rain came half way through the second and things completely changed, Ivanhoe kicking 6 straight and leading at half time. From the point the rain fell, Ivanhoe kicked 18 goals to the X-men’s one.

It was a disappointing effort from the Xers who were sprayed away in the wet easier than the tyre marks on a Greek man’s concrete driveway. Glen “Barrel” Francis was busy on the ground and took it to another level off the ground Saturday night winning the “Miss Universe in Reverse” crown with his stunning dance moves to Ginuwine’s “Pony”.

Speaking of dance moves, Seb Angus was pulling a few of his own down at KB Reserve. “The Big Marn” Angus finished with 9.1 - an amazing conversion rate. The Warriors were in the game early, but after quarter time Richmond put on the after burners and cut through Old Westbourne like a hot knife through some pretty miserable butter.

This is a case of me not trying to be cool, because I only wanna be kind, but it is difficult with the way the Hawks are travelling at the moment.

While they’ve had a tough draw, they just can’t seem to find a win. It feels as though the wonder years have passed them by, and if something is not done soon they could find themselves in TODAY SELECTIONS IN BOLD Aquinas OC v UHS-VU Old Westbourne v Yarra Valley Ivanhoe v Power House Albert Park v Hawthorn AFC St Francis Xavier v Elsternwick AFC Richmond Central v Kew

Division Four. That being said, Elsternwick was terrific. Turning around from a disappointing loss last week to come together in what was a real team effort. From all reports the camaraderie in the showers after the game was at an all time high. Scotty “Suds” Grace brought the Dove on a stick to ensure cleanliness all round.

And it was a very clean and sharp performance

by Albert Park, who finally seem to be hitting their straps. In a somewhat surprising result, they smashed Aquinas by 44 points. Albert Park got off to the perfect start kicking four goals to zip in the first quarter. They were never headed after that, making it look as easy as building a shelter, for green beings, in the sun. James “Red” Brick was sensational for the Falcons. Fossil Toomey’s

TIGES DO IT AGAIN. In a taste of things to come this winter, Melbourne put on one of those days that you’d rather spend indoors by the fire. It rained in patches across the day making conditions just that little bit more difficult. The teams that got a handle on the weather ultimately got handle on the game with most matches being decided early.

We were all reminded on the weekend that football isn’t black and white. Things happen that many predict won’t happen. West Brunswick found themselves on the receiving end of one of the biggest boilovers in Division Four history.

The much-maligned Manningham Cobras knocked off the Magpies in front of disbelieving home fans, who went home bewildered.

South Mornington remains the only undefeated side in the competition after another convincing performance. The top four appears already settled at this stage of the year with only Swinburne Uni snapping at the Tigers’ heels.

Point Cook and Eley Park round out the four currently but there are some question marks surrounding their consistency and potential to knock off the top two.

At Elgar Park, Box Hill North couldn’t hold off a fast finishing Mt Lilydale line-up, which stormed home with an eight goal to one final quarter.

The Demons were in the ball game up until the three quarter time thanks to six majors from spearhead Dan Penny. But it was the Rams who took the much needed four points back to Lilydale. And didn’t they need it after a less than impressive start to the season. Russel Strong and Mark Gower were the standout performers for the visitors, whilst big bustling forward Matt Fernando kicked four.

It may be stating the obvious but the Tigers are the real deal this season. After showing promise in recent years, South Mornington has the team on the park to go all the way in 2012. In fact, there’s a case to argue that they could go undefeated throughout the year. It is a tough task in any competition, but one that could gather momentum the further the season unravels. On Saturday, the Tigers brushed aside North Brunswick by a comfortable ten goals to keep themselves one game adrift at the top of the ladder. Jesse Albrecht kicked another seven goals to redeem himself for last weeks single and take his tally to a whopping 34 from the first six rounds. Could a ton be on the cards for the peninsula boy? Time will tell.

If Melbourne Football Club thinks they were in a bad place at the moment, they need to look at Chadstone and realise that they could be worse off. The Synners were on the end of another hiding, this time at the hands of the Razorbacks.

Swinburne Uni made light work of the bottom placed home side winning by an easy 133 points.

Chris Kilmartin (8) and the Manning brothers, Mick (6) and Jackson (5), were amongst the goal scorers in the avalanche victory.

Manningham came to play in the first quarter against West Brunswick in the weekend. Seven goals to two will tell you that much. However, you’d think that by adding only four more goals to their score wouldn’t be enough to take home the chocolates. Think again. In less than ideal conditions, the Cobras ground out an impressive fifteen point victory. Led by onballers Brett Fisher and Damian Sullivan, Manningham was always going to be given plenty of chances to kick a winning score. For the home side, Michael TODAY SELECTIONS IN BOLD North Brunswick v Eley Park Sharks Swinburne University v West Brunswick Chadstone v South Mornington Manningham Cobras v Mt Lilydale OC Point Cook v Box Hill North

Handscombe continued his good form on a disappointing day for the Magpies.

In the game of the round, Eley Park sent a strong message to the top teams – they can turn it on in the big games. Point Cook was very lucky that the final margin wasn’t worse. Forty-eight scoring shots to twenty-four would usually mean a far greater loss than forty-nine points.

However, the wasteful Sharks didn’t make the Bulldogs pay.

David Viola’s seven goals could have been more if he’d kicked straighter. His brother Michael racked up massive numbers in the middle and was well supported by Mitch Saunders. For Point Cook, Ricky Munn kicked five and Tristan Furr was once again dangerous.

Today: South Mornington travel to Chadstone in a game that will not be close. The in-form Sharks are at North Brunswick in a game that might show how consistent Eley Park will be this season. Manningham hosts Mt Lilydale at Koonung Reserve as the battle for mid-table positions heats up. The Demons make the long trip down to Point Cook to take on the Bulldogs who will be out to avenge their disappointing showing against the Sharks. Swinburne Uni goes toe-to-toe against West Brunswick in what could be the game of the round.

CLUB WAREHOUSE RISING STAR 2012 BOL KOLANG - WERRIBEE DISTRICTS This week’s Club Warehouse Rising Star is Bol Kolang of Werribee Districts.

Born in Sudan in 1992, Bol is one of six children whose family immigrated to Australia when he was 5 years old. Currently in his first year at Latrobe University studying management, Bol is a quiet, enthusiastic and selfless young man who goes about his football in much the same manner.

In only his 3rd year playing football, Bol has well and truly put his mark on the number 1 ruck spot at Werribee. Playing in a very strong U18 & U19 team, Bol progressed so quickly he managed to play in a number of games at the Western Jets in his 2nd year.

Still being eligible to play U19’s, Bol was encouraged to play senior football after a very strong preseason playing as a forward/ ruckman His leap, agility and speed allow him to be both an attacking option around the ground pushing forward to create options, whilst still being able to work back quickly to cut off opposition forward thrusts. He has become an excellent addition to a very young and quick Werribee team. * 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 ALEX MACKENZIE - OLD GEELONG This week’s Beiersdorf Trainer of the Week is Alex McKenzie of Old Geelong.

Alex came down to the OGS last year and in her second year is already doing great things at the club. Alex has expanded her skill set enormously in such a short period of time whether it be strapping, assessment or treatment of injuries. Alex is having a positive impact on whichever team she assists at the weekend and is an asset to club and to the rest of the team of trainers and physios down at Old Geelong.

RETRO

Geoff Reilley

12 MONTHS AGO – 2011 The big turn up in Premier when Old Melburnians ‘broke their duck’ at the expense of De La Salle who failed miserably on the day and missed the chance to go into the top four.

OM’s had lots more scoring shots and it could have been worse for the D’s. Final score – 13.16 to 11.7. Best – Bachet, Dunell, Taylor, M Davis, T Davis, Marangon (OM’s) and Gotch, Close, shields, Vickers, Stewart. Lowe (DLD).

It was a nail-biter in Premier B when Old Ivanhoe, at home, had a shot after the final siren but failed to capitalise and Caulfield Grammarians went home with the prize, not easy to do at Chelsworth Park. Caulfield had raced to 7 goals straight to 2.4 at the first break and could only score 5 majors in the next three terms, final score 12.8 to 11.12. Best – O’Keefe, Pelchen, O’Sullivan, Perkins, Scheetz, Hammond (Caulfield) and Branigan, Gieschen, Harrison, Low, Gellings, Lochran (Old Ivanhoe).

Doug Ensor (Beaumaris) was congratulated on achieving his 250th game and along the way had been Senior Captain, Club Champion, played in 4 GF’s and celebrated 2 premierships (2003) and (2010).

5 YEARS AGO – 2007 South Melbourne Districts were too good for Banyule in D2 Section in the windy conditions and South’s accuracy was a telling factor, 20.7 to 15.13. Best – Cheevers (3), M Costello (6), Bracchi, E Costello Simm, Mahoney (SMD) and O’Donnell (3), Taylor, Persi, Stokes, Demetriou, Lardo (Banyule).

It was Paul Edwards of Power House who stole the show in their clash with Monash Gryphons 22

in D3 Section as he took his tally to 44 goals for the season in 7 games. His 13 in this match was an outstanding effort. Best – Edwards (13), Whelan, Foster, Pacher, Hill, Moresi (PH) and Bourbon, Bracecamp, Baxter, Wilkinson, Harrack, Leeton (MG). Sacha Koffman was the Field Umpire.

10 YEARS AGO – 2002 In D2 Section, the two great rivals over the years, Kew and Parkside, fought out their usual tough battle with Kew looking the goods in the first half and Parkside coming out winners with a stronger second half, 14.23 to 13.15.

Best – Wise, Hockey, McCall, Ryan (8), Hanley, Soligo (P) and Mainsbridge (3), Aitken, Cullen (3), Wood, Blair, Ayers (K).

West Brunswick continued their fine form in D3 by jumping Syndal Tally Ho and maintaining their lead throughout the contest 16.9 to 9.9.

Best – P Hamilton, R Benjamin, West, Kent (4), D Campbell, Cannane (WB) and Cachia (3), Bennett, Mackenzie, Robinson, Hallisey, J Moresi (SyndTalHo).

Werribee held top position in D4 defeating Old Westbourne 18.11 to 7.16. Best – Murohy, Barsby, Pace, Baker (5), Johns, Tedesco (Werribee) and Robson, A Horsburgh, A Leitch, Cornea, Billman, Gigas (OWestbourne).

Justin Seabury was congratulated by his club, Marcellin Old Collegians, on reaching his 200th game. “Moose” had been a fantastic servant and a four time premiership player. Rohan Aujard played his 250th for Old Scotch and had been a great clubman, sponsor and leader in addition to being a really good senior player.

20 YEARS AGO – 1992 De La Salle’s outstanding first quarter (9.3 to 2.2) against Old Scotch in the A Section Match of the Day set the scene for an important victory although Scotch put the brakes on the D’s THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2012

scoring opportunities for the rest of the game before going down 12.12 to 15.13. The win placed the D’s a game plus percentage ahead of Scotch. Best – McClounan, D Smith, Hunter (3), Fraser (4), Belleville, Rennie (DLS) and Eagle, Iser, Austin, Brown (3), Laird, Lloyd (Scotch).

Old Brighton (undefeated) met Whitefriars Old Collegians in B Section in the Match of the Day and a chance for the Friars to move into the top four. It was a tough, dour contest in the first half with Brighton holding a 3 point advantage at the main break. Brighton started to move away in the third quarter and led 7.10 to 4.2 at the final break. Old Brighton proved why they were at the top of the tree in the last quarter and powered away scoring 4.9 to 0.5 recording an eight goal win. Best – Lade, Bennett, James, McLaughlin, Perry, Hayden (OB) and Strike, Mark Bateman, Jackson, Ben Crowe, Carbone, Lyall (W).

B Section senior coaches were – John Simpson (Banyule), Brian Ford (Monash Blues), Mark Parker (Old Brighton), Paul O’Brien (Old Melburnians), Bert Calvert (Old Mentonians), Michael Mulvahill (Old Paradians), Tony Johnson (Old Trinity), Bruce Ferguson (Parkside), Geoff Reilley (Whitefriars). Who coached Uni Blues?

30 YEARS AGO – 1982 The VAFA representative team produced a strong finish to score a great 20 point win over the VFA at Sandringham. The VFA looked to have an advantage all day and led at each change but it was a terrific finish by the “Ammos” that surprised everyone. VFA star, Fred Cook, was a headache all day for the VAFA and finished with 6 goals but our team held on to win 23.13 to 19.17. Best for the VAFA – Jennings (3), R Brown, Honeybun, Cooper, Dillon (5), Burne.

40 YEARS AGO – 1972 Undefeated leaders in C Section, Reservoir Old Boys, showed how powerful they were THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2012

by applying a drubbing to third placed Power House 20.14 to 7.12. It was all over in the first quarter with 8.5 to 1.2. Best – Farrar, Jarvie, Martin (7), Massey, Devlin, F Tuininga (Reservoir) and Shewan, Joy, Hutchinson, Coloe, Wubbering, L Newton (Power House).

Old Brighton were clearly the main challengers for the undefeated Brunswick. The Tonners smashed their nearest rivals, St Patrick’s OC (third) 26.16 to 11.12. Best – Watkins (5), Finkmeyer, Sedgwick, P Devine, Agar (4), Eastgate (OB) and W Mahar, Robinson, Larkins, J Mahar, O’Meara, Love (StPats).

50 YEARS AGO – 1962 Teams yet to record a win for the season were De La Salle (A), Parkside (B), E S & A Bank (D) and Pharmacy College (E). Old Xaverians in B Section were on a roll and took the opportunity to swamp State Savings Bank, 22.17 to 6.10.

John Sanders, later to become a valuable member of the VAFA’s Independent Tribunal, was starring for the Old Xavs.

Norm Pert, Ormond’s Vice Captain and very committed member, played his 150th game.

A Section Captains included John Nilsen (Uni Blues), John Booth (Old Paradians), Geoff Hibbins (Collegians), Alan Masters (Uni High School Old Boys), David Hatton (Ormond), Peter Galbally (Uni Blacks), Geoff Paul (MHSOB), Bill Watts (De La Salle) and Ken Aldred (Ivanhoe).

Victoria defeated Tasmania in Davenport, 12.6 to 4.6 in heavy conditions. Best for the Vics were Slattery (Old Xavs), Hatton (Ormond), Jeeves (Ivanhoe), Boreham (OM’s), Harmer (UHSOB) and Walker (Ivanhoe).

VAFA welcome Bruno Conti, President We again welcome Western Australia to Melbourne to renew the rivalry between two great Amateur competitions.

A year ago, our Victorian boys were triumphant at the U23 Australian Amateur Football Championship in Adelaide, beating all comers. But it was the Sandgropers that gave the Big V the most trouble and we expect they will take it right up to us again.

They are well-prepared, well-coached and laden with young football talent. And show me a West Australian that doesn’t like to knock off the Vics?

While those chosen to wear the Big V today will have missed club football yesterday, playing with new teammates and representing one’s state delivers new rewards. Many will be wearing their respective guernseys for the first time and I know well the thrill it will be for them to don the Big V. From my first match until my last, it was always a special feeling. And the friendships formed with my teammates have lasted WAAFL welcome David Armstrong, General Manager Being selected for representative football at any level is a great achievement.

The experience of playing with the best players in the League against quality opposition provides a great opportunity to further test themselves in high pressure games.

The Western Australian Amateur Football League prides itself in providing quality representative programs with the best quality coaching and support staff available. The League’s programs provide opportunity for the Colts’ age players to play against the WA Country Football League and the WA State 16s, while the U23s play against the best amateur players of that age from Victoria, South Australia and Tasmania in the tri-annual series.

While respect between the states is strong, Western Australia and Victoria have a rich history at all levels of football and love nothing more than beating one another. From a Western Australian point of view, the West Coast Eagles State Amateur U23’s five goal victory over in Victoria in 2006 is a highlight and something this group of players would love to 24

and flourished through the years because of that which we achieved together.

The VAFA believes that Big V football and the opportunity to represent Victoria in Melbourne, interstate and indeed abroad, give us a great point of difference with other football competitions. While club football will always be our raison d’etre, a well-balanced representative program gives our players the chance to step up and compete and play with the cream.

The line of players to have worn the Big V stretches back to 1925 and contains some of amateur football’s greatest champions. We expect a massive assault from our friends from the West, who would love to grab top seed for the 2014 Carnival, but I hoping and trusting that our team will stand firm and get the job done, as have so many Big V teams before them.

I thank our clubs for allowing their players to chase this opportunity and our team of coaches and selectors under Director of Big V Football, Nigel Credlin. Go Vics! recreate. More recently, we snatched a one-point victory in 2009 at Fremantle Oval.

Of course, Victoria has the bragging rights after defeating Western Australia twice at last years’ AAFC National Carnival in Adelaide.

No matter the result, the U23 concept provides the opportunity for young players to gain experience at the highest level of amateur football – experience they can then bring back to their club. The state matches also showcase the football talent throughout the amateur ranks in Australia, and a number of former State U23 players have been recruited to play at higher levels. It’s testament to the hard work of the players, staff and officials that the standard of football is recognised by these higher tiers.

On behalf of the WA Amateur Football League, I wish all players good luck in what should be a fantastic match. The VAFA always plays tough football and I have no doubt today’s team will continue to play in the same vein. I’d also like to thank the staff of the VAFA and WAAFL for their hard work in organising this match.

Unfortunately, for the Victorians at least, there can only be one winner, and I’m confident the WA boys are prepared and ready to recreate that famous 2006 victory.

FTLOTG Marcellin’s “Sheagles” played the Bulleen Templestowe’s “Lady-Ants” on 15 April at Ted Adjani Reserve and raised $5680 for the Butterfly Foundation.

The Butterfly Foundation is dedicated to bringing about change to the culture, policy and practice in the prevention, treatment and support of those affected by eating disorders and negative body image.

Both teams featured girlfriends, sisters, friends and trainers from the clubs, with only two girls from each team ever having played football before.

The game was more physical than both teams

expected, with everyone wanting to put on a good show for the 300-400 spectators who attended. The Sheagles got off to a good start and managed to maintain the lead to half time. After the break, the Lady-Ants were very determined, but the Sheagles managed to keep their cool. In the last quarter, all the girls were putting their bodies on the line in order to try get their team home. The Sheagles won the nailbiter by 8 points, with Lauren Brazzale taking the eye of recruiters in BOG effort.

Each girl who played raised a minimum of $50 in sponsorship, and there were also items donated for the raffle and auction and a first goal kicker/ Best of ground sweep.

FRIARS CHARITY FRY–UP On Saturday at Whitefriars, there will be a sausage sizzle and raffle running all day to aid the fundraising efforts of Mick Hogan, a former student of Whitefriars.

He has entered a HOGAN’S HEROES team in the 2012 MS Walk and Fun Run on Sunday and is committed to raising $20,000 in support of people living with multiple sclerosis.

Mick was diagnosed with MS about 8 years ago and has managed to live a relative normal and unaffected life since, in large part due to the efforts of the MS Society.

If you can’t make it to Friar Park, you can make a donation at www.mswalk.org.au and search for HOGANS HEROES. 42

TOM BRAIN – 21 YEARS OF RADIO

People in the southern suburbs have been listening on Sunday mornings to the Southern FM VAFA Footy Show for 21 years now, but with internet streaming, the audience has grown markedly.

If you haven’t tuned in to hear Tom Brain and Steve McCarthy, you can do so by tuning into 88.3 FM or else go to www. southernfm.org.au.

For those 21 years, Tom Brain has been the constant. He has worn out quite a number of partners with his Sunday morning stylings, but he keeps on keeping on himself. As Tom said this week, “I’ll be all around in the dark - I’ll be everywhere.

Wherever you can look - wherever there’s a fight…“ On second thoughts, it was Tom Joad, not Tom Brain, who said that.

Two Collegians legends, Andrew Baxter and Chris Blumfield are scheduled to play there 150th games this weekend. Andrew has taken a lot longer than Chris by virtue of his time in the VFL with Box Hill. Both boys played in the 2006 B Grade Premiership side and in subsequent A Grade Grand Final sides. Chris was the very proud captain of the 2011 Premier Division Premiership side. Whilst still a more than capable player Andrew is now happy to be part of the Thirds squad and a highlight for him was recently being able to play with his brothers Nick and Tim, the first time this has happened. Chris has relinquished the captaincy after four outstanding years at the helm. Both boys have given there all for the club, and are held in the highest regard.

De La Salle’s Ben Oakley made his senior debut in 2003, the same year he finished runner up in the Under 19 Best and Fairest. He has been an integral part of the senior since then.

The reliable defender is one of the first players picked and leads a young De La Salle defence. Despite generally getting the opposition’s number one forward Ben is rarely beaten. He is highly respected at his club and amongst the wider VAFA community.

SHARK ATTACK While the competitive balance of U19 football is somewhat askew*, the signs from last weekend’s round were encouraging. While some clubs are having little success, the football can be instructive, preparing players for the faster, stronger, harder brand of senior football. There is no doubt that clubs with U19s and/or U18s are setting stronger foundations. Year-to-year variation aside, it is a positive thing to have the farm system that allows players to rise up if good enough and to drop back when form is on the wane.

Grammarians, pushing out from its one point advantage at three-quarter time. Hamish Graham booted four for the Tonners. Alex Heuston didn’t have a problem, booting four as Trinity clipped Carey in a Bulleen Derby, while Harry King slotted seven in Werribee Districts’ impressive display against Marcellin.

In Section 3, Harry Healey booted seven as Xavs belted Bernies, who were well served by Aidan O’Connor. Sam Hibbins kicked seven and Elliot Cattell six as Collegians dealt with Ormond, who got plenty from the Olson twins, Andy and Chris. Mazenod beat Northern Blues and Old Camberwell had a ding-dong struggle with PEGS for three quarters before pulling away in the last.

Jim Howells and Chris Caminiti were best for their respective sides.

Beaumaris, as touted here a few weeks back, places great stock in its U19 program and while the results have been a little unflattering thus far, they hit paydirt on Saturday by beating Old Scotch, with Anthony Goss the pick of the Sharks and Will Hamer good for the Cards. The news wasn’t so good for Fitzroy, but it is not the first, nor the last, team to be on the end of a De La hammering. The good news for the Roys is that they were very competitive until the third term. Anthony Soriano booted six for Sallers and Seb Gotch four, while Dylan Patcas was again in fine fettle for the Lions. St Bede’s/Mentone Tigers were competitive with Old Xaverians, but couldn’t beat them. Steve Berengo was again a mover and shaker with seven for the victors, while Ciaran Lawrence and Joel Mckee booted four each for the Tiges. Bernies overcame Uni Blues in a tight tussle. At the half, it led easily, but the Varsity came back hard. Uni Blacks went down to Old Melburnians by 46 points, the Dark Blues jumping early and moving away as the game went on.

In the South, Parkdale edged Peninsula, which staged a late comeback. Max Nixon starred for the Vultures, while the Pirates had good service from Laurens Van Der Sluijs. Beaumaris was smashed by St Mary’s Salesian - Fraser Coloe got ten, Tom Whittle and James Carolan five apiece – while andy Dickinson was best for the Sharks.

De La Salle beat Monash Blues, with stars on each side being Domonic Spicer and James Duffy. In the Bayside derby, SBMT splashed Hampton Rovers, getting bags from Jordan Young (9) and Callum Byrnes (7). Jay Dillon was best for the Rovers.

In Section 2, SKOB beat Old Haileybury, with Zach Ginies again mentioned in dispatches for the tri-clours and Luke Pinot doing well for the Bloods. Old Brighton was too good for Caulfield

* Late mail says changes are on the horizon and clubs will return after the QBH with slightly different makeup in the U19 competitions. Good news indeed for those struggling.

48

In the North, Old Geelong began well but barely held on to win by four points against Therry.

Bryce Yeo was best for the Oggers, while Brock Egglestone did well for the Lions. Ivanhoe was too strong for the Trobers, with Jai Swinger kicking seven. Josh Hickey was best for the Varsity. Willy CYMS had twin Michelles from Tim Murphy and Trent Dimitriou in their shelling of MHSOB.

UMPIRES

Steve McCarthy & Cam Davidson

THANK YOU, ALL!!

Kevin (Chillie) Segota would like to thank all at St Bedes/Mentone Tigers for the way they congratulated him for umpiring his 700th match last weekend. In particular the guard of honour both teams gave him as he left the field. He would also like to thank the Old Xaverians and his many, many football friends who helped him celebrate. It was particularly pleasing to see the great turn up at Brindisi Street of umpires who had travelled far and wide to get there as well as people from other VAFA clubs. The legend lives on. 800 calling?

A thank you also from Peter Teasdale to Richmond Central and Old Westbourne for their support on the day of his 600th and especially thanks to Ronnie ‘Nicko’ Nicholson for his kind words at the after match and the bottle of red. Batman and Robin had a top day at grassroots footy.

Tough Mothers!

Anyone who dropped in on training last week (amazingly Stokesy was there!) would have been impressed with Joe Hartwig’s fitness circuit incorporating the medicine balls, boxing gloves and pads. All present thoroughly enjoyed an intense workout… perhaps the 56

goal umpires could do with a bit of toughening up this week Harry?

Rager How do you spend your Saturday night?

Updating your Facebook status, raging at Boutique or struggling to complete your online “paperwork”. Tristan Stevens, who has the most interesting resume for an umpire (this time last year he was playing footy in Chile) was at a concert Saturday night when he got the call asking him if he wanted to debut in Premier on the Sunday. Of course he said “yes”, so he made a hasty trip home and started scrubbing his gear to ensure that it would be sparkling for the big match on Sunday.

Youth Policy or Creche?

In a U19 game at Glenhuntly Oval on Saturday we got a taste of the future of umpiring.

The panel consisted of Ben Nicholson, Ben Michelson, Ryan Buckler, Luke Buckler, Richard Hanson and Mason Martinez.

Average age 16.

CHANGING FOURTUNES The quest for finals qualification certainly intensified last week through some surprise results caused by weather vagaries and injuries to club personnel. There were three changes to the top six in Division 1 and four changes to the Division 2 top four.

Ivanhoe defeated the injury ravaged Williamstown CYMS by fifty four points in the early game on the Fearon Reserve. Their early morning trip to West Essendon proved trouble free for Old Melburnians as they comfortably defeated St Bernard’s by forty seven points.

Fitzroy led North Old Boys/ St Patrick’s for three quarters and started the final stanza with a nineteen point buffer. What happened over the next twenty two minutes will be the subject of debate in the legal chambers of Messrs Tehan and Dynon, who engineered a comeback of Lazarian proportions as the home side held Fitzroy scoreless until a kick after the siren yielded their only score for the quarter. North Old Boys/ St Patrick’s with six unanswered goals ran out winners by thirteen points. Old Ivanhoe rose to tenth place through their sixty four point win over Therry Penola, who now remains the only team without a win. Prahran/ Assumption won the battle of Darling Park with a fourteen point win over inaccurate co tenants, De La Salle. The win lifted the “Four Blues” into sixth place. Undefeated leaders, Old Xaverians were untroubled out in Clayton where they triumphed over Monash Blues by eighty six points.

Hawthorn maintained their unblemished record when, despite inaccuracy, they defeated Therry Penola by seventy points. The loss saw Therry Penola drop from second to fourth on the ladder.

Eley Park made it two wins on the trot when they defeated Old Paradians by twenty five 60

points. Shortage of players and injuries depleted Bulleen Templestowe who could manage only one goal in the face of an avalanche of Richmond Central “Cardinal’s scoring. The Cardinals won by one hundred and fifty five points. Only inaccurate kicking prevented a wider margin.

The Richmond Central “Snakes” must have felt like their Irish reptilian antecedents when the Scot Patrick banish them from the “Emerald Isle” Only this lot had nowhere to escape before the final siren. For Old Geelong (now in second place), this was their finest hour with a two hundred and sixty seven point win. UHS-VU achieved a long awaited first victory when they finished twenty six points ahead of Kew. St Bernard’s should consolidate their top six position by defeating the disappointing Fitzroy.

I expect North Old Boys/ St Patrick’s to be too strong for Old Ivanhoe especially on the Gillon Oval. The early game between Old Melburnians and De La Salle should reveal much about the comparative strength of each side. When judged on 2012 achievements, Old Melburnians are my selection. I select Prahran/ Assumption to TODAY SELECTIONS IN BOLD CLUB XVIII (1) Fitzroy v St Bernards NOBS/ St Pats v Old Ivanhoe Old Melburnians v De La Salle Prahran Assumption v Monash Blues Therry Penola v Ivanhoe Williamstown CYMS v Old Xaverians CLUB XVIII (2) Eley Park Sharks v Richmond Snakes Hawthorn v Kew Old Paradians v Old Geelong Therry Penola v Bulleen Templestowe UHS-VU v Richmond Cardinals

win again at the expense of Monash Blues, who are not enjoying a successful season. Ivanhoe should remain in the race for a final six berth by defeating the yet to win Therry Penola in today’s afternoon match. The early start at the Fearon Oval should hold no fear for undefeated leaders, Old Xaverians, who will be too talented for a depleted Williamstown CYMS. Eley Park Sharks should make it three wins on the trot today by defeating the winless Richmond Central “Snakes” Undefeated leaders Hawthorn should win again at the expense of Kew. Old Geelong, now entrenched in second place, have the opportunity this morning to consolidate their position by defeating Old

Paradians. Few Old Geelong players will have played at Bundoora, where the winds and ball bounce differ from those encountered at Como, so an upset result could occur! The Therry Penola versus Bulleen Templestowe match outcome could prove vital come August. Both suffered losses last Round and today’s loser will drop behind the top four teams. At the Fawkner Reserve, I select Therry Penola. Third placed Richmond Central “Cardinals” should prove too strong for UHS-VU.
