ONE IN FIVE Last Saturday the Hawthorn Amateurs luncheon at Visy Park highlighted the issue of mental health. This club has been affected with two of their players and a parent tragically taking their own lives. This lunch commenced the week where we focus on mental health in conjunction with the VAFA’s official partner charity One in Five.

This is such a critical issue that the premier of Victoria, the Hon Ted Baillieu deemed it important enough to attend. He spoke of the value that clubs play in providing a wonderful community environment for people suffering to find solace.

Ted mentioned a number of prominent sports people who have suffered and how each of these respective sporting communities has supported them through the difficult periods of their life.

Bill Brownless also spoke of his personal experience with a current Geelong footballer who is suffering from depression. He has been very impressed with the support given to him by the player group and coaches. They have made allowances in his training program and supported him, not judged, as he endeavours to fight his way through this illness.

Last Thursday we requested that each of the club’s presidents speak to all the players highlighting the problems surrounding this medical condition. The players were given two leaflets and were encouraged to read them.

Hopefully this will provide a more open and supportive culture at our clubs.

players about mental illness. Unfortunately mental illness touches one in five Australians, with the greatest number being males aged between 18 and 24.

The good news is that because it is a medical condition, like breaking your arm, you can get help. It is important to know that you can get this help. Most people with mental illness recover and lead good lives when they receive treatment and support. We therefore encourage you to get help if you need it or that you encourage a mate who you may think he is suffering in silence.

Your club can create a great sense of belonging and can be a real support and source of strength for anyone with a mental illness. Each club needs to create an open culture where no-one feels isolated.

Unfortunately the statistics surrounding mental health and suicides is alarming. More Australians commit suicide than die on the roads each year, with 77% being men. Suicide now ranks as the leading cause of death for those under 45.

Regrettably, someone from the wider VAFA community passes away each year from depression. We believe that if we build team support, we can help share the burden by knowing more about mental illness. Let’s take this opportunity to spread the word about mental illness, help our team mates who suffer from this tragic disease, and raise money for One in Five.

The VAFA and One in Five began our community partnership in 2011 with the goal of raising money for medical research to find a cure for mental illness, and also to help clubs educate

ABYSSINIA ROUND Round 8 set nothing in stone but provided a good few signposts for the way home. For those clubs outside the four, it’s going to be tough to find a spot on the September bus, provided, of course, the top teams keep winning. Given their form thus far, it’s hard to see them doing otherwise, save when they play each other. The race to avoid the drop may yet draw a lot of nominations. As always, we shall see …

Old Scotch and Uni Blues have had some dingdong struggles in recent years and it has usually been the Varsity emerging on top. That was then, this is now. The Cards are riding high and Blues are struggling. Coming off a hammering from the Brindisians, Blues showed pluck early but were again totally outclassed and outplayed by the slick Red Men. What is it? The new coaches? The new jumper? No more red shorts? Whatever, it’s all working out Camberwell way. Luke Schumann, playing his second senior game, slotted five and the Dancing Machine that is Gene, Gene van den Broek another four to further boost his rookie of the year chances. There were also some strong performances from the back six and the Caledonians careered away. U19 eligible Pat “Chauncey” Gardiner debuted well, while Jack Watts again put his hand up and Marshall Rippon did likewise in another Batman and Robin episode. But a dynamic duo needs more help than it’s getting right now. Varsity added just a goal in the middle quarters to Scotch’s nine and when they revved in the final stanza with four, the Reds added another nine.

Caulfield Grammarians again began well but their luck ran thin when Collegians got going. They have led all three top teams over their past three home games, but the happy ending still eludes them, despite the four quarter effort of Tom O’Sullivan, who should poll mighty well in the Woodrow and might even win it if the aforementioned Caped Crusader doesn’t grab his second. Sundberg and Scheetz gave plenty too, but the Lions roared on, 2

with Taft, Ries and Lee bagging fourteen between them. With their share of injuries and quite a number of guns playing in the Twos, things look to be humming along very nicely at the Trott.

Just how nicely we may discover this week when the Purples host Xavs in a bout for the mid-minor premiership. The Red and Blacks began brightly against De La but the Blue and Golds had a strong finish into the wind in the first term to turn square.

DLS’ second term was all energy and they added six goals to two, with their stark advantage in leg speed sending a massive shiver down the collective spine of the Toorak Park faithful. The difference was four goals at the long break, but in the tea-room, there was gloom among veterans of campaigns past, with predictions thrown about with more abandon than De La runs the football. A five-goals-to-none third term, in which Xaverians thoroughly mastered the visitors, gave them a chance and a resolute final term saw them home with some late goals, including a bomb from a pressure set shot from the youngster Louis Tiernan. The bright spots for DLS were the great form of Leigh Harrison and the Humphrey Bros, while Xaverians John Shaw and Cameron Purss ensured victory at the many stoppages.

For the second time in two years, Old Carey broke Old Trinity’s hearts. In a gripping affair at Dunshea, the Greens looked to have the ascendancy and the points in the bag. They led by 34 points in the final term. Then, in the gloaming, the Panthers’ latest boom recruit, Adem Yze had a quarter that will live long in the memory of Carey fans, plundering the defence for five goals. Bas Simpson was a grand contributor, shutting down the Ramsden threat, while Cam Howat and Julian Rowe went about their quality business. For the vanquished, Kristian Butler, who had a ripping third stanza, and Pete “Tape” Mescher were the pick of the bunch.

SPORTS INJURY CASUALTY - OPEN 1-7 SATURDAY

The Sunday feature at the Park between 2002 premiers St Bernard’s and 2008 premiers St Bede’s/ Mentone Tigers was a much anticipated affair. The two teams had never met and while the Tiges fielded their strongest outfit for the year, they couldn’t go with the Snow Dogs after the first term. Jake Bevanda was best afield and he had plenty of help as the Bernies got away from the Seasiders and never looked back. The Tigers, who had enjoyed a good fortnight, looked unsure and lacked finishing skills.

THIS WEEK: It’s a happy circumstance that sees the first half conclude with a clash for top spot.

Collegians greet Xavs and while the visitors’ win last week was full of merit, it’s hard to see them repeating the dose. The Purples are strong and deep, but then again, they might not have faced opposition this strong in a while. The Tiges are back home to face Caulfield Grammarians and will go in as the heavy favourite. Old Scotch has a danger game against Old Carey. The Panthers

will push the Red Birds, but the home team’s tall timber might be the difference. Uni Blues are desperate for a win and their eight-point clash with Old Trinity won’t be a place for faint hearts.

The home ground is a fortuitous advantage for the Varsity. De La Salle travels to the Snakepit knowing that second spot is up for grabs. Bernies will be ready, but will they be good enough?

So, that’s end of the line for me. Thanks to all who have helped me with the finer points over the past three and a half seasons. It’s been a great pleasure to write about the best football competition in the world. Please email your snippets to andrew@vafa.com.au. Goodnight and good luck.

PREMIER B

Di Langton

THE UNBEATEN 22 Two vastly different sporting conquests will heroically culminate this weekend in both hemispheres. St Kevin’s meet their final Premier B rival in University Blacks, Daniel Harford’s 22 men hoping to lob a Varsity scalp upon the exhausted heap of challengers heretofore. Blacks came close to arriving similarly unsullied to the showdown, yet the Sporting Gods clearly saw a need to clear the decks for just two shining lights this weekend. The other needs no introduction; the Queen of Speed will clip-clop into Ascot in her finest salmon spotted silks (sans the Nancy Ganz shapewear) where the top-hatted swells will say toodle-pip to the Diamond Jubilee Stakes as she takes her unbeaten record to 22 wins.

Late scratchings last week at Gary Smorgon saw five AJAX stalwarts miss the game against St Kevin’s, but the Jackas were not disgraced falling short by 23 points. Lew (4) and Simon (3) made the most of limited chances and the locals were buoyed by the return of David Fayman from injury. SKOB also had two stars returning in Chivers and Simpson who added running power, only to lose them in a re-occurrence of injury.

Routman broke open the visitors’ defences, but the tri-colours eventually clamped it down through the gutsy efforts of Keely, Dowd and Nash.

The track was probably rated a Dead 4 given the drying wind coming off Beach Road but Oakleigh’s inaccuracy hurt them early on and Old Brighton capitalised to level the scores at halftime. The Krushers looked for a big third term, the wind dropped and Mrs Doherty’s boys Steve and Tim (2), along with Mick Harold (2) were among the Oak’s best but returned only 2-8 for the quarter to the ‘Tonners 6 goals. Tom Mentiplay (4) was pivotal for OB covering the loss of Michael Dewar, while Andy Dewar was superb 4

in defence spotting up forward late in the game.

Perrett and Fallon were also solid contributors to the 24 point win.

Returning to the winner’s circle with a resounding 56-point win at the Junction Oval, Old Melburnians threw a shoe in Werribee District’s excellent on-the-road record. De Fegely, Lapin and McLardy (3) were best for the Dark Blues and Lachie Bennett bagged four as the Tigers were dislodged from fourth spot. Morrow, Huxtable and Moilivas (3) were the ‘Bee’s shining lights.

Like drawing a wide barrier, McKinnon Reserve requires tactical nous and Hoes’ coach Craig Hunter almost pulled off the impossible in a white-knuckle-one-point encounter with Old Haileybury. Banking at every turn and kicking straighter (Nick Butler 3), Old Ivanhoe looked likely as they led throughout, but failed to apply enough scoreboard pressure. The fast-finishing Bloods managed to get a nose in front in the nick of time; Ferguson (3) and Gleadhill prominent while Rhy Gieschen (2) was best for the visitors ruing what might have been.

Not unlike the Royal Mile (Ascot’s home straight), Royal Parade is the historic home of the most endearing sporting fields with an afternoon tea fit for a King. As the large crowd filed in for scones with clotted cream, Uni Blacks went into the sheds seven points to the good, the dark sky a portent of things to come. Black’s captain Dan Costello and Beauy x-factor Tom Dean both missed with injury, but it was the sickening lower leg crunch to Jackson Leigh in the third that seemed to galvanize Gower (5) and Cathcart (2) shooting the Sharks into the lead. Their backline repelled repeated Uni advances in a heartTODAY SELECTIONS IN BOLD Beaumaris v Werribee Districts Oakleigh v Old Melburnians Old Haileybury v Old Brighton Old Ivanhoe v AJAX St Kevins v Black Caviar

stopping final few minutes, Harry Lahy brilliant for Blacks along with Delahunty and Slabbert (3) but unable to stop Beauy’s momentum, going down by two points.

THIS WEEK A personal thank you and fond farewell from me to the only Voice of the VAFA, Michael Fitzgerald.

Good luck Fitzy!

Having toppled the fancied Blacks, Beaumaris will need to keep the swagger in check as they host the rebounding Tigers and Old Ivanhoe will throw everything at the Jackas to restore their hard-to-beat reputation at home. Old Brighton may find the going harder as the Bloods regroup at the Haileyburian alma mater while OMs point the Disco eastward to Oakleigh to laud it over the Krushers.

THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2012

Kevin’s and Uni Blacks in the anticipated season blockbuster: there’s no reason to think the tricolours can’t perform a clean-sweep of the comp, yet the Uni’s loss to Beauy takes the lofty weight of pressure from their shoulders. As night unfolds and our girl saddles up in the northern hemisphere sunshine, I imagine a symbolic Black-out will descend both here and there for the anointed twenty-two. One will achieve the magical milestone; the other will falter at the last.

MARCELLIN MAKES IT SIX STRAIGHT It was a week of beltings following the Queen’s Birthday break, with the Eagles gaining a bit of breathing room at the top of the ladder following a big win over the Wellers. With two of the top four losing the ladder has bunched up again in the middle, setting the competition up for a crucial round of matches this week.

Mazenod continued its resurgence; their third win on the trot putting it right back in the hunt.

The Nodders welcomed back Phibbs and started firing in the second quarter, banging on seven goals to zip and setting up the win. The Ashes had all sorts of problems at that end of the ground, putting 0.4 on the board in the second and fourth terms. Rees Thomas made it sixteen goals from his last three outings, kicking four to lead the Mazenod attack. Ben and Michael Chamberlain were also important contributors in their big win. For the Blues, Cunnington and Griffiths battled all day, but they never found a consistent avenue to goal.

Out at the Grammar, Nick Bartram returned to the line-up in style, with six goals in a dominant display against the Rovers. It was a good return to form for the Grammarians, who realised they were in a contest right from the first bounce.

PEGS kicked into gear in the second stanza, with 8.8 to 0.2, to put the result beyond doubt. Sean Towner was at his brilliant best, with four goals as the Essendon boys piled on sixteen in the second half. While it’s hard to find positives when your side has been done by 24 goals, there’s no doubt that Hampton is improving, with the inability to sustain their competitiveness for four quarters proving their downfall. Ed Turner was lively, bagging four goals, while Innes and Fletcher were good again.

Out at the Cave, Banyule reversed the result of 6

the 2011 Division 1 grand final, with a big win over Parkdale. It was a back-and-forth contest in the first half, with just nine points separating them as they headed to the change-rooms.

When play resumed, it was all Banyule, with the Bears putting on nine goals to two, to run out winners by 50 points. Adam Barclay helped himself to another bag and Jake Truefeldt was immense. Sam Radford was within his rights to be disappointed with the fade-out, though Paul Sullivan’s best game for the season and the continued good form of Brett Hampton were highlights. While the win certainly would have been satisfying for the Bears faithful, due to last year’s finals disappointment, in the here and now, the win was crucial to breathe life into their season.

Steve McPherson’s boys travelled to the Barnyard and showed that they have no intention of giving away top spot any time soon, completely dominating the contest from start to finish, to win by 82 points. The Bortolottos were a constant threat, combining for eight goals, while Jarrod Carlson capped off an amazing month of football with yet another best afield display. For Old Camberwell, Chris Bell earned promotion to the late game and distinguished himself with a quality performance. The Wellers have now dropped two of their past three and they’ll be desperate to return to the winners list this week.

With Old Camberwell and Vultures slipping up, Fitzroy was able to take second spot with TODAY SELECTIONS IN BOLD Hampton Rovers v Fitzroy Marcellin v Banyule PEGS v Monash Blues Parkdale Vultures v Mazenod Rupertswood v Old Camberwell

a commanding 50 point win to make it five in a row. John Clark celebrated his 100th for the Roys and they dominated the first half, with eleven goals to three. After the main break, an improved performance from Rupo made it a more even contest, but the result was never in doubt. Chris Polidoras and Matthew Brown were the best performers for the Roys, while Mitchell Gaunt and Lachlan Baddeley were again solid for Rupertswood.

Fitzroy travels to Boss James this week to take on the Rovers. While Hampton has gradually improved, Fitzroy has not lost since the first week of May and they will win comfortably.

It’s an eight-point game at Parkdale and I’m going to go with Mazenod to continue their fantastic recent form to hit the midway point

at 5-4. Marcellin and Banyule square of at the College and while the Bears certainly can’t be underestimated, it would be a brave tipster to go against the Eagles. PEGS back up from their big win last week against another team that is desperate for a win in Monash. The Ashes must be a bit deflated after six straight losses, and I think PEGS will be too strong. Rupertswood is back at home against the OC, with both teams looking to turn around some mediocre recent form. I think this game is too important for the Wellers to drop and they will give Rupo their fifth straight loss.

BIG V

Bruce Bourne

BIG V MEMORIES I always felt very fortunate to have arrived at Ormond Amateur Football Club when I did. In 2 years of Under 19’s and 6 years of seniors I played in seven grand finals, winning six. (Stopped, I might add by “Harry Costello” and his Uni Blacks when we were trying for 4 in a row in 1974.

This led to period of a number of years when I was selected to play in the BIG V, starting in 1971.

In these early 70’s I was privileged to play with a number of famous amateur players who were nearing the end of their careers, along with a few my own age who were just starting out.

Of course, I finished in 1979 at the opposite end of the age group. As a 30 year old I was selected to look after a young Steven McCooke and Frank Marchesani, both 18 I think, when we finally won a carnival in Tasmania.

Thinking back to the early days I am reminded also of the numerous officials who accompanied these teams in various capacities. These included Fred Coldrey, whom I fronted at his home looking for a permit, Lou Zachariah who made those wonderful boots, George McTaggart who used to write up the state games in the Sporting Globe, Bobbie Sinclair, Manson Russel, Alex Johnson who got us a few appearances on the old World of Sport, Noel Rundle, Jack Dillon, Alf Keam, the “Doc” Costello, David “Bunts” Scott, “Munners” Munro, “Captain” Peter Nathan, Jim Fidge (who still owes me a dinner for a raffle) I won at Geelong many years ago, and probably a few more I’ve left out.

Throughout most of my time in the BIG V, Lou Zachariah was president. Lou was fantastic and a great servant of the Association and one particular year, we made up a song to “honour” him.

8

Of course the main joy was meeting and getting to know all those wonderful players and coaches that I played with and for.

Some have become lifelong friends and for all of us, the BIG V luncheon gives us the chance to catch up and tell each other how good we used to be. While the list is far too long for me to know, I’d just like to briefly mention a few who come to mind immediately, and in no particular order: Harry Costello, Cuddles Cordner, Frosty Cordner, The Pole Pisarski, Bazza Morphet, Normie Beattie, Ando, Corbo, Lumpy, Murph, Greg Wade, Big Johnny Rojo, Roger Wood, Mick Birrell, Chris Hansen and many, many more.

And of course some of the coaches, Alan Salter, Peter O’Donohue, Ted Farrell, John Wilson, Gus Mitchell, Bernie Sheehy. I can’t escape Bernie – When we moved into our current house, 27 years ago, I heard his voice over the back fence and there was a De La function in full swing. Last weekend our grandson played for Beaumaris and there he was, coaching AJAX – talk about resilience!!.

Sadly, many of the wonderful people have passed away, some of them way too young.

In the last couple of years at Ormond, we lost Graeme “Lumpy” Moran and Kevin “Teaser” Ladd.

They both played for the BIG V in 1972. I am sure that many of you will have had numerous similar sad circumstances, but the memories live on.

Finally, I congratulate all those who have been selected to represent the BIG V this year. I hope your experiences and memories have been as wonderful as mine were.

DIVISION 1

Darren Dawson

ARE OGS THE REAL DEAL? It was a win that made the rest of the competition sit up and take a bit more notice of the men from Como Park: a victory over the previously unbeaten Peninsula, which is notoriously difficult to overcome on their own patch down the coast. What also made the pundits pay a bit more attention was the manner in which Old Geelong achieved the win: twenty-five points down at the final change, the visitors came storming home to snatch four precious points on the road at the toughest away venue in Division 1. Peninsula certainly fought all the way to the end of a thrilling match, and a wasteful 1.5 in the third term certainly did not help their cause, but in the end it was a day for Old Geelong to celebrate. Best for the victors were Tom Burchell, Charlie Fairbairn and Callum Wood with five goals, whilst for the Pirates it was Alex Wood, Reed Powney and Stefan Barbour among the better players.

Ormond, coming off what club insiders called a “gutsy” loss to the aforementioned Pirates, hit the road again, this time to Williamstown. Down by twenty-five points half-way through the third term, the Monders showed plenty of fight to, firstly, claw their way back into the contest and, secondly, run over the top of a fading CYs team to post a comfortable four-goal win. Best for Ormond were wingman Ryan Martin, who had over thirty touches and kicked three goals, along with youngsters Henry Simon and Joss Holdsworth. For Williamstown, Fin Adamson and Ben Gray were towers of strength.

eventually powering away to an eleven-goal win. Glenn Maxton, enjoying a solid year, Tim Brady and Matt Keown (again) were in NOBs’ best, whilst Tom Paterson, Andrew Spink and Jarryd Bloink were Glen Eira’s stand-outs.

Old Mentonians journeyed back up the Yarra to Melbourne High School, and put the previous week’s defeat behind them with a resounding win over MHSOB. With the amount of ball they had early, the Panthers should have been further to the good than 20 points at the first break. The second and third terms were also an arm-wrestle, with play constantly being bottled up in the pockets. In a lack-lustre match, best for the Panthers were Tim Speers (dominant on the wing), rover Sam Johnson and flanker Elliott Macquire. For the Unicorns, better players were Kane Smith and Heath Taylor.

A relieved Whitefriars returned to the winners list with a 98 point demolition of an understrength St. John’s at Donvale. Aided by the return of a number of injured players, the Friars booted the first four goals and then never looked back. Despite a spirited opening to the second term by the Jocs, the home team kicked another four to blow the game wide open.

Emille Abdullah was instrumental in setting Friars alight and big Rowan Mattinson also proved a handful for defenders when he was resting up forward. James O’Meara chipped in with four goals. For St. John’s, best were Jarrod Gaget, Josh Green and Corey Ely. TODAY SELECTIONS IN BOLD

Glen Eira got away to a good start at Gillon, and actually led by a point over North Old Boys – St Patrick’s at quarter time. But from then on, NOBs probably just did what they had to do in gaining the ascendancy over the Saints, 10

QUANTUM-PHYSICS 101 “As far as the laws of mathematics refer to reality, they are not certain; and as far as they are certain, they do not refer to reality” – Albert Einstein I certainly don’t claim to be well read in Einstein’s work but I’m reasonably certain I have deciphered what the famous physicist is philosophising. Regardless of how definite an outcome is perceived, it can never be assured.

Unbeknown to Einstein’s philosophy, last week I endeavoured to rectify my pre-season’s predictions. With a sense of conviction, I penned the final standings at seasons end, 8 rounds in and I was certain I had it right.

The confidence in my ability to analyse Australia’s favourite pastime was eroded with every text message containing the final scores on Saturday, upset after upset slowly filtering its way through.

While I may need to find a new career path, the great news for the competition is that it’s anyone’s to win.

Five weeks ago, a trip to Ted Adjani would send shudders down even the most optimistic of competing teams. 5 weeks ago, Emmaus St Leo’s were, winless, languishing in the depths of the ladder and starving off relegation predictions.

Fast-forward to R8, and the tale reads vastly different. While the Animals didn’t get the points last Saturday, they were anything but disgraced, a lamentable slow start the only reason for the 26-point differential at game’s end. Stellan Avramidis capped off a great month of footy with a best afield for the all-conquering Bullants and the old firm in Nathan Baranello and Anthony Ballard stood tall for St Leo’s.

Old Paradians continue to make a firm case for the illustrious and highly contested fourth rung 12

with a monumental 10-goal final term guiding them to a 71-point win over La Trobe University.

In arguably their best performance of the season and trailing by a mere 14-point lead going in to the final verse, a maiden victory loomed for La Trobe. Unfortunately for the students, David Boundy wasn’t having a bar of it, ending with 7 goals in a best on performance.

Therry Penola couldn’t find the legs to stay with Eltham, forfeiting five goals to one, in a contested affair at Eltham College. Boasting the largest ground in the VAFA, the Turtles were superb in the last, running all over an exhausted yet defiant Therry. Sab Ciavola has well and truly put his early season woes behind him, slotting 6 majors and Tim Wood helped himself to 3 goals and 35 touches. For the impressive Therry, it was Ben Harding and the ever-consistent Jarrod Egglestone that impressed.

Carlton and Collingwood. The Red Sox and the Yankees. Monash and Prahran-Assumption. It’s taken one and a half years, but the Gryphons have finally taken a scalp in arguably the greatest rivalry in the VAFA, strolling home comfortable winners by 49 points, seriously announcing themselves as finals contenders in the process. In breezy conditions at East Caulfield Reserve, the Gryphs led from post to post, beating Prahran in all facets of the ground, a once unfeasible task. Gomizel was outstanding all day, standing toe-to-toe with Adam Sleight and winning my unanimous decision in the process and Tim TODAY SELECTIONS IN BOLD Emmaus St Leos v Eltham Collegians Old Paradians v Monash Gryphons Prahran Assumption v La Trobe University South Melb Districts v Bulleen Templestowe Therry Penola v St Mary’s Salesian

Madden joined a horde of impressive Monash Players. For Prahran, it was the form of Nathan Davey and Troy Booth that mollified the loss.

St Mary’s Salesian and South Melbourne brought traffic on Glen Iris Road to a standstill as they played out our first draw for 2012. Giving up the first 3 goals of the game in quick succession, a dim day loomed for the St Mary’s and wasn’t until a casual four goal burst from Sam Autio late in the first term that order was restored. Trailing in the last quarter, St Mary’s gained ascendancy through consecutive goals from Jos Op’T Hoog, Scott Gatehouse and David West. As time on ticked over in the last, trailing by 13, all looked lost for South Melbourne but two sensational goals and a carefully timed behind ensured

Closing out the round, Bulleen Templestowe should win comfortably against South Melbourne and Prahran-Assumption will keep La Trobe winless.

DIVISION 3

Nick Wynne

BLOOM I put this to you, loyal reader of this article, and follower of Division Three … If you can’t keep hanging on, to what is dead and gone, can you then use the past to motivate you to greater heights? I reckon that if you built yourself a myth, you’d know just what to give, materialize, or let the ashes fly. But what comes after this, momentary bliss? Help me to name it.

Lapis Lazuli is a rare and semi precious stone (I liken it to Elsternwick’s form line, close to impossible to find) and if you do find it, impossible to resist. They make it very difficult to slip on by when they are at the top of their game. While they weren’t at the pinnacle on Saturday, they still managed to defeat a much improved Albert Park. It was a very important game for the Wicks after club legend Col Page passed away during the week. Elsternwick showed amazing guts to get over the line by five points. And it was a fitting tribute to a wonderful man. RIP Col. Yarra Valley kept its amazing run intact with an impressive display against the in-form Centrals.

It was a shoot out for a half, but after the break the wine swillers of Yarra Valley proved why they’re the benchmark side of Div 3, piling on nine goals to four in the second half making Richmond suffer, like no other. Jack O’Callaghan was sensational in his second game for the Bushies and Steve Donald dominated up forward gobbling up anything thing that resembled a footy. He even managed to inhale an over sized ping pong ball that had somehow made its way from Bangkok and into the Yarra Valley pointy end.

The X-men were keen to put a traumatic two week period behind them when they travelled 16

to Parkville on the weekend. While they didn’t start too well, losing the toss and kicking against a five goal breeze, they trailed by only two goals at quarter time. Like any sort of traumatic experience there is always a face to remind you, some day out of the blue it will find you, but Saturday was not that day for the Xers.

It was evident through their intensity at the ball they were not going to lie down. It resulted in a season defining two and a half goal victory on the one hand and on the other, the trauma was there for all to see. The sullen faces of the defeated comrades were likened to that of the “Hummer-Man” from Div 2 who, when reading this fine publication in the grandstands last week, identified a clear typo in his prose.

The ears of the VAFA editors are still ringing, but have assured the great Hum that it won’t happen again.

And on the topic of traumatic experiences, it was definitely the case for Old Westbourne, which was smashed again, this time by a rampant Ivanhoe, who were led by the Moose who bagged another 12 goals. While the moose-head celebration didn’t come out, you could tell he was pretty pleased with his work. Victoria Legrand sings about “the moment when a memory aches.” It might be tempting to call that feeling nostalgia, or in Old Westbourne’s case the beginning of 2012.

It was a different story at the Bear Cave though; an amazing upset saw Kew finish all over Aquinas in the second half. Timothy Allman was easily best on ground for Kew, amassing a huge amount of effective disposals.

for Aquinas, Sam Porter could not repeat his heroics from Wednesday, when he saved a St Kilda local from drowning at the Beach Baths.

He was not selected in the side this week – a week when Aquinas could have used a lifesaver.

Speaking of swimming, some have likened Hawthorn to swimming in the lake; we’ll come across a snake. It is real and then it’s fake, feel its heartbeat. Feel what you heat, far so fast it feels too late. Are the Hawks too far gone? Or will those that wrote them off be made to eat their words? Another sensational come from behind victory sees them climb up the ladder. The John Travoltas of Division 3 are really developing a habit of surprising everyone and coming

from behind these days. But the question still remains - are they real, or are they fake? I guess time will tell.

This Week: Yarra Valley will be far too wild for Aquinas, Elsternwick will cause too much trouble for UHS-VU, Ivanhoe make the hours miserable for Richmond come Saturday arvo, Albert Park to be too good on the sea and Hawks will have their wishes come true and make it three on the trot.

DIVISION 4

Josh Gabelich

NO SURPRISES Round 8 contests saw all results going to the favourites in a rather convincing fashion. It may seem that things are already set this year in Division Four, with the gulf between the top four sides and the rest of the field continuing to widen. However, with ten rounds remaining in the home and away season, nothing can be certain. Players can sign, come out of retirement, head overseas or move away. So, we’ll have to wait and see if things change as this winter unravels.

In the meantime, South Mornington appears almost unbeatable. After threatening glory in recent years, it looks like the Tigers have put it all together and on the back of a strong summer on the track, are every chance to complete the unthinkable by going through the season undefeated. On Saturday, in less than pristine conditions, South Mornington made it eight wins from eight starts against West Brunswick on the Peninsula. Jesse Albrecht continued his rich vein of form with another big bag. This week his nine majors helped belt the Magpies by ninety-seven points. A fourteen goal to two second half once again highlighted the Tigers high level of fitness as they ran over the top of the hapless West Brunswick outfit. Sam Wright and Jake Dade-Bell ran riot through the middle, whereas Jeremy Barnard did likewise for the disappointing Pies.

Manningham, winless but a few weeks ago, have stamped themselves as a genuine finals contender in 2012. In a danger game for the Cobras, they scraped over the line by sixteen points over Box Hill North. In the local derby, the Cobras found themselves in a game that they were expected to win. With this added pressure, it wasn’t until deep into the game that 18

they were able to kick away from the relentless pressure heaped on them by the impressive Demons who haven’t had a very fruitful season to date with only two wins to their name.

Damian Sullivan and Tarek Moughanie’s four goals were the highlights for the victors.

Swinburne Uni is in a similar position to South Mornington. Both sides have shown signs that they are capable of taking out the premiership in recent years but for one reason or another haven’t been able to do so. Yet, with just one loss to their belt, the Razorbacks look every bit like a side capable of going deep into September.

On the weekend, they made the journey out to Mt Lilydale to take on the Rams. Ben Higgins and Richie Lugg were once again prolific ball winners for the Students, whilst Pulka brothers, Jesse and Mitch, were standouts for the hosts.

North Brunswick made one of the toughest trips in the Ammos on Saturday when they headed down to Point Cook to take on the rampaging Bulldogs. And for three and a bit quarters, they looked half a chance of pinching the four points away from home. But seven final term goals were enough to comfortably get the Dogs over the line and maintain their strong position in the top four. Andrew MacLean was everywhere for the home side, racking up massive numbers.

The Bulls would be thrilled with their first two and half quarters, but know they have to put together four quarters to knock off one of the top four sides this season.

Eley Park made light work of Chadstone. After a slow start, the Sharks raised their intensity heading into half time before disposing over the Synners by 142 points at home. For the home side, Jon Edlich but on a clinic with eight goals. Keith Biggs and Sean Scenery were serviceable for the Synners, but it is hard to see where they are going to get their goals from with only three contributors on the weekend that all kicked only one goal each.

the formidable challenge of topping the Tigers down in Mornington. It appears that the Razorbacks are the only side capable of coming close to the devastating Tigers. North Brunswick host Manningham in another test for the Cobras. Mt Lilydale find themselves with the opportunity to find some elusive form with their game against Chadstone. Point Cook travels to West Brunswick in what should be a comfortable occasion for the Bulldogs. In the Box Hill derby, the Sharks take on the Demons and should be strong enough.

CLUB WAREHOUSE RISING STAR 2012 GENE VAN DEN BROEK – OLD SCOTCH FC This week’s Club Warehouse Rising Star is Gene van den Broek from Old Scotch.

Gene is a dedicated, hard-working and committed midfielder who can play equally as well at half-back or as a forward. He is an enthusiastic trainer, whose rigorous pre-season is now paying dividends with a rich vein of form.

Gene describes his most memorable moment in football so far as his first senior game for Old Scotch in round three this season, in which the Cardinals defeated Old Xaverians by 36 points. As a Scotch College student, Gene was a member of the 1st XI cricket team and was Captain of Football. He now coaches junior cricket and football teams at the school. Gene says he really enjoys working with the younger players at Scotch. ‘I definitely can see myself continuing this in the next few years,’ he says. His ambitions include playing representative football for the VAFA, and continuing to contribute to Old Scotch’s on-field success.

* 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 HANNAH ROSS - ST KEVINS The Beiersdorf Trainer of the Week is Hannah Ross of St Kevin’s.

It’s Hannah’s second year working with SKOB as a sports trainer, but she shows composure and knowledge beyond her years. She is calm in emergency situations, as has been shown when dealing with a variety of challenges. Hannah has a deep understanding of complex injury management and assists the team with rehabilitation of difficult conditions, and she is not afraid to make tough judgment calls on soft tissue injuries.

Hannah is reliable and assists with duties both on and off the field, including following up injured players, writing injury reports, and assisting with player management at the clinic.

RETRO

Geoff Reilley

12 MONTHS AGO – 2011 In a totally unexpected result in Division 3, Kew completely overran UHS-VU 21.16 to 6.8 and the combine only kicked 4 goals after quarter time while Kew kicked 18. Kew were now on the cusp of the top four. Best – Donaldson, Leeds, Altis (5), Spencer, Cullen, Balme (Kew) and Pearce, St John, Kelly, Pinney, Rowland, Matthews (UHS-VU).

In Division 4 Eley Park Sharks had no difficulty against the battling Chadstone in a game dominated by Ira Israel’s 10 goals and Michael Robinson’s BOG performance for the winners.

Best – Robinson, Broadbear, Creswell, Israel (10), Welch, Newmarch (Eley Park) and Caffieri, Johns, Keating, George, Cuming (Chadstone).

Out of all the senior, leading sharpshooters in the competition, three had topped the 50-goal mark for the season and all were in Division 4 – Ben Spencer (St Francis Xavier) 57, Daniel Penny (Box Hill North) 53 and Aaron Marsh (Point Cook) 52.

5 YEARS AGO – 2007 Undefeated Rupertswood in C Section traveled to Parkdale Vultures’ home ground with an easy encounter predicted. Not to be as the Vultures played a great second term to be within 7 points at half time and had taken the lead, albeit by 5 points by three quarter time. In a great last quarter, Rupertswood managed to get their noses back in front on the bell to win 16.14 to 16.10. Best – Bishop, Baddeley, Nettleton, Whitehead, Boxall, McGovern (Rupertswood) and P Sullivan, Burger, Liddell, Rochford (5), S Sullivan, Macgeorge (Parkdale).

C Section Senior coaches were – Stephen Maus (Fitzroy Reds), Ben Robertson (Mazenod), Andrew McGregor (Monash Blues), Tim 22

Kilworth (NOBS/St Pats), Paul O’Shannassy (Old Camberwell), Cam Matthews (Old Carey), David Matthews (Ormond), Dale Bower (Parkdale vultures), Shane McLauchlan (Rupertswood) and Greg Feutrill (Whitefriars).

Old Geelong had a great win over ladder Leaders Old Mentonians in D1 Section. It was a comprehensive victory by the OGS who had it all sown up by half time and won by 7 goals at the finish. Best – Malpas, Goldsworthy (3), Legoe, Branigan (4), Head, Bayles (OGS) and Thompson, Carroll, Norton, Wiltshire, Ball, Snow (Mentonians). Central umpires were Darren Dalgleish and Thomas Windlow.

10 YEARS AGO – 2002 It was a thrilling game between Peninsula Old Boys and Fitzroy Reds with Peninsula jumping out of the blocks but being pegged back after quarter time by a very determined Fitzroy unit, determined to get clear of the relegation zone.

The final quarter was a terrific contest as they went goal for goal but Peninsula just held on to win by the barest of margins, 15.17 to 16.10.

Best – S Prendergast, Kent, Trewitt, Payze (4), Torossi (4), Bowen (Peninsula) and Meighan, Pollard, Tornese (9), Cahill, Drury, Clarke (Fitzroy).

Winless Richmond Centrals put up a pretty good showing against much higher ranked South Districts in D3 but could not handle the running game of the Southerners who kicked 9 goals in the last to win 23.18 to 11.4. Best – Aqualina, McGee, Hannan, Henderson (5), Mellina, P D’Andrea (Sth) and McGrath, Harris, Doutavic, Porteus, Carew, Lynch (Richmond).

Albert Park ‘kicked the sweep” against Box Hill North in D4 Section by amassing 37.18 to 8.5.

Julian Storey and Dave Borley were terrific for Albert Park, Corey Riscalla and Shannon Smith were solid performers for BHN but it was Sean Allan with 16 goals who created the highlight for the day as he came within one goal of the Albert Park record.

THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2012

20 YEARS AGO – 1992 In D Section it was a high standard game when Old Ivanhoe hosted St Kevins with SKOBS taking the early advantage of two and a half goals at quarter time. They clung to a three-point lead at half time and two points at the final turn. The Hoes had their chances in the last but missed some easy shots in front and SKOBS won 17.9 to 15.11. SKOBS remained just outside the top four on percentage. Best – Watkin, Pivetta, Stone, Callil (6), J O’Brien, McNee (SKOBS) and Yarwood, Stevens (5), J Weddle, Clarkson, Cavanagh (3), Weston (OI).

Umpires Corner highlighted Wayne “Chuck” Hinton’s umpiring career to date. Chuck reached 300 games from both his AFL /VAFA career and named as his highlights – his first ‘Ammo” game and his first AFL game (Swans v Melbourne (1985). He named Phil Kingston (Ormond) and Michael Yeo (Uni Blues) as the best amateur players he had seen and his father, John, as the greatest influence on his career. (John also umpired in the VAFA). Ed: Remarkably, Chuck is still umpiring at senior VAFA level in 2012 and is one of the most personable ‘men in white’ always ready for a chat and a beer in the after match celebrations.

40 YEARS AGO – 1972 Caulfield Grammarians, leaders in A Section, ‘bumped’ Old Paradians out of the top four with a convincing victory, 22.21 to 12.18. Best, P McLaughlin, Ward, S McLaughlin, Butcher (9), G Tootell (3), Lane (Caulfield) and Burt, Kendall, Audley (4), Denavi, ford, Carroll (OP).

Uni Blacks in B Section defeated Geelong 11.11 to 6.10. Best – S Costello, McLean, Cusack, Connell (5), Lipshut, Pitt (Blacks) and R Foster, Hogarth, Wookey, Fluker, Thornton, E Smith (Geelong).

50 YEARS AGO - 1962 David Burstin became the first player for the AJAX Club to record 100 games.

C Section captains were R Minchin (Hampton Rovers), John Stephen (OGGS), J Ravech (AJAX), Peter Stokes (Brunswick), C Wakefield (West Brunswick), L Woods, (Kew), B Sheedy (StKilda CBC), G Brewer (National Bank), D McDonald (Footscray Tech Old boys) and Ted Northeast (Caulfield Grammarians).

30 YEARS AGO – 1982

60 YEARS AGO – 1952

Therry CCOB were continuing to impress in E Section and gave the cellar dwellers, ANZ, no chance to get into the game, finally steamrolling the Zedders 20.26 to 6.9. Best – Biddlestone, Weir, Jacobsen, Simpson, Broderick, Nolan (Therry) and Anderson, Battista, Coffey, Haintz, Obree, Thompson (ANZ).

In the worst slush for many years, Ormond Juniors (11.17) defeated Old Scotch (3.8) to continue their unbeaten run. Best were John Byrne (later a member of the VAFA Executive), Brian Walsh (a future St Kilda star) and Col Wilson (a Melbourne premiership player of the 1950s). Clubs were reminded that the VAFA had never cancelled a game while the tops of the goalposts were showing above the waterline!

There was in fact no provision to cancel a game. (When the VFL cancelled a round in the mid 60s and Punt Road Oval was under water, I remember we played on No 2 oval at Albert Park with quite a few ponds on the ground, which we avoided at every opportunity! – GR).

Brunswick remained undisputed leaders in F Section as they demolished St Johns Old Collegians 28.16 to 7.5 in not so good conditions.

Best – Lewis (3), Bugden, Kannegiesser, Carroll (3), Rindzevicius (5), Reichelt (Brunswick) and Cauzzo, Currie, Simpson, Wilkinson, Wadeson, Chatterton (St Johns).

CHANGING OF THE GUARD Blair is a graduate of the Peninsula School in Mt Eliza and San Diego State University in California, USA. He played NCAA Division 1 tennis for the ‘Aztecs’ and went onto complete a bachelor’s degree with distinction in Film, TV, and New Media Production. Mr O’Hara knowledge and experience of the NCAA, the world’s largest amateur sporting competition, will be of great benefit to the Victorian Amateur Football Association.

Welcome Lenny and Blair: farewell Fitzy.

More movement at the station this week as Andrew Leonard (above) of Inner FM and VAFA TV fame slips into the role of Communications Manager, replacing Michael Fitzgerald, who is returning to political arena as the Chief of Staff for the Leader of the Opposition in South Australia.

Blair O’Hara (right) was recently appointed to the position of Commercial Manger and has hit the ground running. His role is chiefly concerned with increasing revenue for the VAFA and our clubs.

NICE GESTURE

Today is the VAFA’s One in Five round. One in Five raises money for medical research into mental health issues including depression, which affects one in five young men. All clubs have been asked to hold a sausage sizzle or similar and donate the proceeds to this worthy charity. One in Five is available to come to your club and address your players and committee about the serious issue, which can be too often overlooked through a lack of knowledge.

Quite a number of our clubs have been directly affected by the issue in recent years and the FTLOTG salutes the work of One in Five.

Big V and PEGS (Old Essendon) stalwart Tim Biggs continues his recovery and rehabilitation after a nasty neck injury and it was pleasing to hear that Old Xaverians are donating $500 to his cause. Even more pleasing was that the Xavs’ players, on hearing of Tim’s plight, added another $500 from the proceeds of a recent social function.

Should other clubs wish to help Tim, please contact PEGS club secretary Graeme Williamson on 0408 519 486 or suewilli@optushome.com.au

HAWKS LUNCH AT VISY Hawthorn Amateurs hosted their annual luncheon at Visy Park highlighting depression and the problems surrounding this medical complaint. Speaking on the subject were the Premier Ted Baillieu, Geelong champion Bill Brownless, SEN’s Mark Fine and Julia Mason from One in Five.

Brad Beitzel did a super job as the MC and the VAFA was represented

by Board Member Tim Nelson, (pictured with Ted and Bill) and CEO Michael Sholly. Of course Bill was quick to point out to everyone the day he kicked eight straight on the ground but on checking the records, this story was another one exaggerated. The Premier spoke about his two years in the VAFA playing with Uni Blacks which unfortunately ended after he had kicked

3 first quarter goals against St Bernard’s before having to drive himself to hospital with a sore cheekbone. Congratulations to David and Pat Clancey for organising such an esteemed panel and all the 120 members from Hawthorn who attended the lunch.

CLUBS HONOUR VOLUNTEERS Last weekend was Volunteer Round and 44 clubs honoured one of their finest with a special presentation for their service. The awardees were: Aquinas Dave Whitehead; Banyule Keith Mills; Beaumaris Sonia McNally; Box Hill North Tony Leonard; Bulleen Templestowe Gordon Scott; De La Salle Chris Elliott; De La Salle Max Millwood; Elsternwick Richard Patey; Emmaus St Leos Paul Carey; Fitzroy Suzanne Madeley; Glen Eira Mark Always; Hampton Rovers Ben Kezilas; Hawthorn Peter Kennedy; Kew John Kiriakou; Manningham Cobras Jess Sheehan; MHSOB Kylie Da Fonte; North Brunswick Brad Dancer; North Old Boys/St Pats Peter Hevey; Oakleigh Mark Coppock; Old Camberwell Tim Cottrell; Old Carey Craig Wallace; Old Geelong Hamish McInnes; Old Haileybury Andrew Bonwick; Old Ivanhoe Karen Griffiths; Old Mentonians Cathy Myers; Old Scotch John Gray; Old Westbourne Ann Davidson; Ormond Emma Wilson; Parkdale Vultures Nanette Perazzo; PEGS Chris Bartram; Peninsula Paul McGuinness; Point Cook Steve Ward; Powerhouse Nick Apostolakis; Richmond Centrals Frank Collins; South Melbourne Districts Sandra Cheevers; St Bedes Mentone Tigers Marj Pritchard; St Kevins Paul Murphy; University Blacks Andy Smith; University Blues Gerry Westmore; West Brunswick Aaron Thompson; Whitefriars Dom Massarotti; Williamstown CYMS Ken West.

OLIVIA STARS AT THE MCG The VAFA had two teams take part in the AFL 9s at half-time during last Sunday’s game at the MCG. AFL 9s is a social, version of Australian Rules with nine players per team, with a minimum of 3 female players per team, and adjusted rules to encourage a fast, free-flowing game.

The Ammos fielded two teams (Reds and Blues) comprising folks from MHSOB, Old Ivanhoe and the VAFA staff, including Olivia ‘Hollywood’ Crowe and Ben ‘Baa Baa’ Hodges. Olivia, who is a regular with the East Burwood Devils, was yellow-carded a number of times for laying bumps and tackles (not allowed in this noncontact version) and inflamed the crowd of 35,000 by looking to the Jumbotron after each of her four goals in the hope that her feats would be replayed on the big board. Team

captain, new VAFA Commercial Manager Blair “Insert Sponsor Name Here” O’Hara led the team with distinction and on one occasion touched the ball (threw it back to the ump after a Crowe goal). The game was played in good spirits and all who participated thoroughly enjoyed their fifteen minutes of fame on the hallowed turf of the MCG.

In the previous seven years St Kevin’s Matt Lucas has topped the goal kicking five times and was runner up in the B&F three times. He is a five time VAFA representative and was a member of the SKOB A section Grand Final side and the B section Premiership side. Matt is a very balanced player with exceptional skills with the ability to read the play better than most and to turn a game at will. Fellow Skobber Anthony White has become a stalwart in the backline of the seconds. His determination to overcome knee and hamstring injuries is to his credit and he has been rewarded with promotion to the firsts this year where he has played at fullback for the majority of the season. ß Fitzroy Senior player John Clark joined the club in 2007, and played in the 2009 grand final. In 2011 John was awarded Fitzory’s Club Person Award.

Chris Wills àcame to the club through the Fitzroy Juniors and in 2008 played in the U19 premiership team and captained the Reserves in 2011.

Richmond Centrals’ Ben Zelencich has become an even better player since a terrible facial injury two years ago - as soon as he was allowed to he started running again, and pretty much hasn’t stopped since. A key member of our run to the Grand Final last year, Ben is also tremendously popular off the field, for both his social and running exploits. However his DJ act needs work, as on his last attempt he turned the club’s amp up to 11, with disastrous consequences.

IF AT FIRST… Round 8 was the week that the Roys broke through. It’s a tough life in U19 Premier, but the Lions got the chocolates at last, a great reward for their perseverance. Eamon Scott booted seven for the victors, Dylan Leech and Josh Sawyer were high in the best for a team that kicked clear in the second term and went on with the business. Uni Blacks had four from Ben Murphy, and Jack Hurley flew the flag highest.

Uni Blues had a handy win over Old Scotch, with Pat Ferguson slipping through four and leading the Varsity best. Ed Walmsley kicked three for the Red Birds, who got good service from Bill Carroll. Sam Peacock kicked six and was BOG as Old Melburnians were too strong for Beaumaris, with Chris Baum high in dispatches for the Sharks. Nick Gazdowicz starred and Luke Pirrie kicked four as Xavs beat DLS in a grand final rematch. Charlie Haley, who once sold the Amateur Footballer on the Toorak Park terraces wearing a Xavs jumper, kicked five for the Bellers. Dave Wall continued his fine form for the Snowdogs as Bernies edged the Brindisians.

Juy Capp was best for the Tiges.

Camberwell, with Paul Sansonetti outstanding for the winners and Sam Freeman working hard on vain for the Wellers. Daniel Riazah-Kesheh had his own footy and Nick Curwood kicked nine as the Monders belted St Bernard’s, with Ned McAllister best for the Snowdogs.

In the North, Therry Penola bested La Trobe on the back of Jamie Curran and Shae Tatlock’s four goals. The Trobers’ Tom Quirk perfomed well. Ivanhoe dumped Williamstown CYMS with Sam Mowat outstanding for the Hoers and Nic Holdsworth trying in vain to lift the CY team.

Down south, Peninsula beat St Bede’s/Mentone Tigers in a bayside derby. Braden Churcher and Jamie Popaz swapped fours, but Sam Glenn was tops for the Pirates. De La clubbed Hampton Rovers with Kobie Wallace kicking seven and Paddy O’Connell the standout.

Lachie “Viscount” DeLisle was best for the Bossers. Parkdale Vultures ran away from St Mary’s Salesian, with Josh Kovarik kicking five for the Birds. Tom Whittle answered with a Michelle for the Saints.

In Section 2, Caulfield Grammarians proved too much for Old Haileybury. Josh Steiger was best for the Fields, while Sam Nowlon impressed for the Bloods. Old Carey finished the stronger to beat Marcellin in another battle of Bulleen despite the Eagles’ James Hollaway kicking seven. The Panthers’ best was Charlie Wood. Werribee Districts, led by efforts from the Turners, Matt and Brent, clipped Old Trinity, whose best was Jokob Steinhart.

In Section 3, Harry Healey kicked another four as Xavs beat PEGS, who got three from Matt Nola. Northern Blues were too much for Old 48

UMPIRES

Steve McCarthy & Cam Davidson

BIG 300S We see a couple of our umpires hitting the 300 game mark this weekend so a big congratulations to both of them.

The first one is goal umpire Craig Arnol.

Craig picked up the flags and joined the VAFAUA in 2000 straight after retiring from a stellar 13 year career playing for UHS/VU. His first highlight was being promoted to A grade after umpiring only 11 games and doing the game with his mentor back then Bernie Jephson. (Did they do fitness training together? Ed.) As for grand finals, the highlights have been umpiring the D1 senior GF, C reserves GF before watching the best GF he has ever seen when St.Bedes/Mentone Tigers & AJAX played a ripper of a game. Also last year he umpiried his first A reserves GF after 12 seasons of trying to get a game on the last Sunday of the year for the VAFA. Also this year marks his 25th year involved in the VAFA.

from time to time even tripling up on some weekends.

Gunny’s a man always willing to put his hand up and help out, whether it be pre-season games, running the water in state games or whatever else is required. This former rugby league player and Bulleen/Templestowe player loves his footy and especially his VAFA footy.

We’re sure we’ll see Gunny gracing the wings of Sportscover Arena come finals time. Great milestone to you too, Gunny.

Website Don’t forget to check the website regularly just to keep up to date with what’s going on. Go to http://vafaua.asn.au

Today he’ll be umpiring his 300th at Melbourne University when Uni Blues take on Old Trinity in a game where there’s a lot at stake.

Well done Arnie, great milestone and have a memorable day.

The other one is a bit of a legend around the place who we don’t see as much of these days.

Jamie Gunn will clock up game 300 if he umpires two Club XVIII this weekend (and he probably will). Gunny has reached the milestone fairly quickly after doubling up and 56

CLUB XVIII

ON WE GO With the season now into the second half, the Section 1 final six places are still to be earned. It seems that Old Xaverians and Old Melburnians will occupy the two top spots while at least five clubs have their sights on one of the other four places. Conversely in Section 2, the final four seems settled as the present leaders hold a two game break and a huge percentage lead on the fifth placed side.

There were no surprise results in Section 1 although the winning margin of many winners did reveal the wide gap between the leaders and those teams outside the top six. Old Xaverians showed in no uncertain manner that North Old Boys/ St Patrick’s hold on second position was merely transitory. The Crocodiles won by one hundred and sixty one points. Old Ivanhoe started well against St Bernard’s but given their player shortage, they succumbed against the fresher St Bernard’s players and went down by ninety nine points. Again it was Veteran’s Day at Darling Park as Craig Berger, Mark Ploenges and triple Mason Medalist, Jason Storer starred in Prahran/ Assumption’s one hundred and five point win over Williamstown C.Y.M.S. Monash Blues won over Therry Penola by fifty six points to keep a faint final flame flickering. Old Melburnians started slowly at Ivanhoe and at quarter time an upset loomed. The Melburnians, however, asserted their superior skill and fitness throughout the last three quarters to record victory by sixty eight points. Theodore Code with seven goals virtually outscored Ivanhoe by himself. In a rare Sunday game De La Salle improved their percentage by 20 through defeating Fitzroy by ninety eight points.

The two leading teams in Section 2 enjoyed early morning success. Leaders, Hawthorn led Richmond Central “Snakes” by seventy seven points at the final bell. Second placed Old Geelong defeated University High School Old 60

Boys/ V.U.T. by one hundred and twenty five points largely through Tim.Bailes nine goal effort.

Surely now, Old Geelong’s first finals appearance is assured!! An inaccurate Old Paradians held out Bulleen Templestowe to win by the minimum margin and in so doing virtually finished the “Bullants” final four aspirations. Third placed, Therry Penola trounced goalless Eley Park by one hundred and forty five points on the visitor inhospitable Fawkner Oval. In their afternoon encounter, Richmond Central “Cardinals” well led

by Tim. Pritchard (5 goals), proved too strong for Kew, who finished forty six points in arrears.

Prahran/ Assumption make the “Great Trek” to play the winless Therry Penola in Oak Park.

All form points to a big Four Blues victory BUT many a visiting side has lost on this ground. Old Xaverians should record another big victory over Fitzroy, who are not enjoying a successful season.

Ivanhoe make the long trip to Monash where they will find the local Blues ready for a second successive victory. Although the big Ivanhoe side showed me glimpses of fine form last week, I am selecting Monash to win at home. North Old Boys/ St Patrick’s cannot afford another loss like that last week, which cost them some 48 %.

Another loss will see them ready to tumble from the six. That said, I believe they will be talented enough to defeat Williamstown CYMS, who are not enjoying sustained success. A close contest should occur when fourth placed De La Salle TODAY SELECTIONS IN BOLD CLUB XVIII (1) Old Melburnians v Old Ivanhoe Therry Penola v Prahran Assumption Fitzroy v Old Xaverians Monash Blues v Ivanhoe NOBS/ St Pats v Williamstown CYMS St Bernards v De La Salle CLUB XVIII (2) Hawthorn v Bulleen Templestowe Kew v Eley Park Sharks Old Geelong v Richmond Cardinals Old Paradians v Therry Penola UHS-VU v Richmond Snakes

visit sixth placed, St Bernard’s. St Bernard’s will encounter far more opposition from the reigning premiers than they met from Old Ivanhoe in Round 8 and they will need to be at their top to win. I expect a close finish and tip De La Salle (just). Old Melburnians should win well over the struggling Old Ivanhoe.

In an early game, I favour Hawthorn to maintain their record by defeating Bulleen Templestowe, whose form has dropped of late. Kew are my selection to defeat Eley Park on Victoria Park.

Richmond Central Cardinals visit Old Geelong for what should be a final’s preview. I believe the wide wings of Como Park will suit Old Geelong the better and select them to win after a lose contest. Old Paradians have done

well against Therry Penola over the past two seasons irrespective of their ladder standing.

Today the Paradians should be keyed up to start their Club celebrations and I expect they will be competitive. However, from what I have seen, I don’t believe they can score enough to defeat the third placed Therry Penola. In the battle for tenth place, Richmond Central “Snakes” visit University High School Old Boys/ V.U.T. An interesting game should follow. The “Snakes” have scored more but the “School” defence has the better record. With no confidence, I select the “Snakes”
