EDITORIAL

Blair O’Hara

THE AMATEUR APPEAL After three years working in the commercial area of the VAFA administration, it is great to be able to pen the editorial this week and share some insights. The sports sponsorship market in Melbourne is one of the most cluttered in the world, with so many professional sporting codes and teams all vying for a limited amount of companies willing to engage in this type of marketing spend. The VAFA has to play in a different space, but I believe we are demonstrating great appeal for companies with a strategic community focus in Melbourne.

This is evidenced by a great year in terms of adding new partners and retaining existing partners.

Some of the new partners include William Buck, Grill’d, Nutrients Direct, High Sierra, Coca-Cola, and GroupOne Communications. We’ve also provided a great platform for mental health awareness group, Thick & Thin, to build some vital traction early in their development.

In recent years, the VAFA has invested in two significant digital assets (funded largely through the support of East Malvern Community Bank) to create increased value for sponsors. The assets are our email communication platform and the new VAFA.com.au website. We are one of the few football competitions of size that can feature their own sponsors in the advertising zones. This has provided great benefit by not only increasing awareness and engagement, but also avoiding sponsor conflict that was regularly occurring in the past.

The core values of the ‘Amateur’ brand are one of our key selling points and resonate strongly with most individuals I meet in the acquisition process.

Being able to demonstrate a history of integrity, sportsmanship and genuine community values aligns well with organisations with a desire to reflect such qualities in their own business.

A big part of my mission in this role has been to help clubs tap into VAFA sponsor benefits and stimulate the VAFA economy at the club level.

Over the past two years, the collective number of sponsors (not including player sponsorships) of VAFA clubs has grown from 1080 to 1123. This is a solid result in what has been a relatively downcast economy during this period. I believe this number can continue to grow if all clubs can assign a dedicated commercial/sponsorship manager from their committee. Clubs that have this role in place are able to maintain relationships better and do the little things that sponsors are after in terms of awareness and engagement with the club community.

Many companies I come across are switching their focus away from typical mainstream advertising campaigns to ‘hyper’ local area marketing campaigns. The VAFA and clubs collectively are in a terrific position to take advantage of this shift in strategy. Our new partnership with Grill’d Healthy Burgers is a great example. The VAFA and over 55 clubs will be featured for the month of August across 19 locations in metro Melbourne.

Not only is there a good financial outcome, but the partnership provides great awareness of the VAFA brand as well as promoting clubs in their local area.

Building the VAFA brand should be an objective of everyone involved in the VAFA. In a competitive landscape, greater awareness of our community benefits all areas, from player and umpire recruitment, to volunteer involvement, to sponsorship acquisition, to stronger council support. Across the wider community, it seems the ‘VAFA’ might not be as well-known as the ‘Ammos’ and something we all need to work on to funnel interest into one and the same objective.

I always welcome feedback on all of the above matters, so feel free to share your thoughts with me at blair@vafa.com.au.

WILLIAM BUCK PREMIER

Andrew Leonard

@ Lennytalk

A MINI SEASON The 2016 season got off to a great start on the weekend. Of course it wasn’t 2016, but for many who suffered without any William Buck Premier football over the past fortnight, it almost felt like we had been through an off-season such was the break. Despite the break it was almost back to business as usual. The trends pre-break all continued in the first game back. De La Salle won a third straight game and with it swapped places with Old Scotch. Percentage currently separates the two, but there will no doubt be more wins on offer for the two in the coming weeks. Both Old Trinity and St Bernard’s won again to retain their two and a half game buffer. Old Carey dispatched Beaumaris and secured another year in William Buck Premier whilst Old Xaverians jumped into fourth. Jokes aside, the next six weeks is like a mini season. Still much to play for and so many stories to be written.

The Sharks had no fewer than seven changes to their side despite two weeks off to rest and recover. This lack of cohesion stood out in the first half at Old Carey where the Panthers showed little mercy for the competition’s bottom side. Only two season’s ago Old Carey was on the receiving end of some mighty beatings in their third season in the top section and recent results are trending that way for Beaumaris too. Old Carey was in their third year in Premier when they finished last and Beaumaris too are in their third season. The Sharks are not out of it yet, and their ability to stymie the Old Carey game in the second half was a positive.

Nevertheless, Old Carey will be happy with their start to the game in which they kicked 14 goals to 2 in the opening half. Julian Rowe caused problems and Steve Freemantle found plenty of the ball. The Panthers win keeps them a game and half clear of fourth spot.

The yo-yo for fourth spot saw yet another change as Old Xaverians comfortably beat Collegians to leap frog Uni Blacks into fourth spot. Xavs just held the edge over the Lions at half time, but a five goal to zip third term set the match on its course. Matt Handley again is proving to be the best key forward in William Buck Premier as the 2

Big V skipper kicked another bag of five goals in the win. It was also great to see Michael Darvell amongst the best whilst the Louis’; Denton and Tiernan, also played their part. For Collegians the story is more puzzling. This was when they made their run last season, but whilst they are still only a game out of the four, it feels a little different this year.

As already mentioned, University Blacks lost their place in the four as they went down to Old Trinity at the Uni Oval. The T’s won the game in the third term as they established a four goal break that allowed them to bank another four points. Gabe Hamilton was sorely missed last year when he went overseas, but he has become more than a bang and crash inside mid. His elevation to one of the premier midfielders William Buck Premier has been because of his hard running and ability to impact on the outside as well as the inside.

Seb Nicolosi bobbed up with three goals for the visitors too, but it was a goal from a kick in, moved through the middle of the ground that showed Old Trinity in the best light. Taking the game on, executing perfectly and ending with hard running goal. Former Old Trinity player Rob Humann was best for the Blacks.

Uni Blues pushed late but couldn’t overhaul St Bernard’s at the Snakepit, falling short by a goal.

This is fast becoming the story of the Blues’ year.

Their close losses have been by 5, 5 and now 6 points. Despite another close loss, there are still positives for Blues. Tom Quinn has become an overnight sensation. His Big V representative performances were a highlight over the break and he backed that up with another four goals.

For St Bernard’s Chad Jones also booted four goals, whilst Simon Caven put in another sterling game. Nathan Kazuro was also influential through WILLIAM BUCK PREMIER — TIPS IN BOLD Old Scotch v Old Trinity Old Carey v De La Salle Uni Blues v Uni Blacks St Bernards v Collegians Old Xaverians v Beaumaris

the middle of the ground. St Bernard’s were not at their devastating best and after a two week spell will be better for the run.

The match up at the Dairy Bell between Old Scotch and De La Salle had so much on the line for both clubs. De La Salle came out on top to record a third straight win and escape the clutches of the relegation zone for the first time since round 4.

The clubs have swapped position and there are likely to be more twists as this battle rages on for the final six weeks of the year. De La Salle is on an upward trend and it is no more than they deserve.

De La have been in almost every game they have played this year, the change in fortune is solely down to their ability to play four quarters of football. Leigh Harrison continues to be a quality player at this level, he booted four goals as did Xavier Murphy. Antony Forato was good all day,

PREMIER B

William Balme

@balmey21

SKOB – DOMINANCE TERRIFIES REST OF COMP Just as a quick sidenote, I’ll be popping into the Premier B hot seat for a couple of weeks as David takes a mid-season trip. If anyone would like to send me information from the games played next weekend, please email me at balmey21@gmail. com. Looking at the Premier B makeup, and past the utter dominance of St Kevins Old Boys this season, the top 4 is evolving into a rather intriguing narrative. With two sides stuck on 8-4, and with a two game buffer over 5th placed Ajax, you could suggest that these sides are simply fighting it out for 3rd place. However, you can’t rule anything out when it comes to St Kevins September form, which is patchy at best. In saying that, it is hard not to look at the SKOB side and be blown away by the brutal way they’ve gone about their footy this year.

St Bedes/Mentone, the scorned A Grade premiership winner less than a decade ago, continued their solid season with a strong win over Mazenod at Central Reserve on Saturday. The Tyquin trio all had a big effect in the last term with the game on the line. At ¾ time, the Tigers sat only 5 points ahead of Mazenod who played a desperate brand of footy in order to get themselves out of the relegation zone. However, the Tigers were too strong in the last, kicking 8 goals to 2 to wrap up a contest that many observers would have shunned for other Saturday activities considering the two varying ladder positions. Tim Doherty kicked 5 in another sublime performance, supported ably by key backman Paul Wintle and the beforementioned Thomas of Tyquin heritage. Mazenod’s disappointing season trudged on with another honourable loss, as Ben Phibbs starred.

Old Brighton faced off with Hampton Rovers in a bayside bonanza at Brighton Beach Oval. Not to cast aspersions, but there were latte cups flowing everywhere and countless Labradors taking strolls amongst the punters. On a windy and miserable afternoon, it was Old Brighton who stayed with the top 4 pack with a convincing 41-point win. Big forward Daniel Anthony slotted 4 on a day where 18.35 was the accumulative score line. The same combined total was kicked in the CollingwoodWest Coast game but to be fair on the Baysiders, 4

they weren’t playing under a roof… It was Dylan Verney and Nick Marston who were the dominant forces down back for the Tonners, too imposing for the Rovers, who were led by a tough performance from Dan Corp.

Condemnation is starting to look like the Caulfield Grammarians’ word of the week after they were smashed by the mid-table Fitzroy boys at Brunswick St Oval. It was a comprehensive second half effort from the ‘Roys, particularly in defence whereupon they kept the Grammarians to just 5 behinds. Caulfield now sit a game behind Parkdale and Mazenod at the bottom of the table and there appears to be little sign of drastic improvement to come. Corbin Stevic received great delivery in his six-goal haul for the Roys, with that support coming from sources such as Rory Angiolella at CHF and Matthew Kyroussis. The wounded Grammarians face Old Melburnians coming off a huge loss to SKOB, and will require far more support Tom Small (who kicked 2 snags) and Jay Neratzoglou, who worked hard, if they are to have any chance of pulling off a major upset and saving their Premier B soul.

I went on Commerce Camp a few years ago with Jake Lew. He dominated the compromised version of ‘Jack in the Pack’ that weekend and he appears to have moved onto bigger and better things with another scintillating 5 goal performance to add to his 39 for the year. Ajax was too strong for the struggling Parkdale Vultures, who have only once been able to score above 100 in a contest this year, illustrating their dearth of scoring power. Ajax on the other hand remains a handful for any side (minus the rambunctious SKOB) on their day, with players of the ilk of Adam Caplan (3 goals at CHF) proving too much for the Vultures. Ajax go into their crucial return fixture with Old Brighton brimming with PREMIER B — TIPS IN BOLD Hampton Rovers v St Kevins St Bedes/Mentone v Fitzroy Ajax v Old Brighton Grammarians Parkdale v Mazenod Old Melburnians v Caulfield Grammarians

confidence, particularly in the light of defeating the Tonners during their first clash earlier this season.

For the Vultures, U/19s player Ryan Stringer was the highlight on a morale-sapping day for their seniors.

SKOB trucked on against their nearest rival Old Melburnians with one of those wins that just make you shake your head when trying to conceive just how much better this side is than any of their fellow Premier B rivals. They were simply outstanding, with 22 contributors, a fierce cheer squad and a club so full to the brim with desire to bring home a bunch of premierships, they can barely contain their excitement. From the moment the game started the feeling was that this was just a rehash of SKOB’s complete obliteration of St Bedes/Mentone a couple of weeks ago. 6 first quarter goals, an exhibition from Stephen Salopek with 4 goals and a support cast featuring the super talented Phil Edgar and Brad McCann left Old Melburnians breathless.

It was only a 3 goal last term from the OMs that kept the margin from going beyond 100 points. Tom

Adam Caplan was tremendous with 5 in their last fixture and he is in fine form currently. If he gets under the Tonners’ skin, Ajax will be hard to stop. I think they’ll pull it off at home.

Hywood finished with 3 for the shellshocked OMs. Their 86-point victory was a firm warning to the Tigers and the Tonners who sit 3rd and 4th. SKOB mean business this year and they have their eyes firmly set on producing the perfect season. What a performance.

PEGS CLAIM FIRST WIN PEGS celebrated its first win of the 2015 season, in a come from behind victory at Peninsula. It had been a long time coming as the Bombers have lifted its output in recent months in the lead up to claiming its opening points for the season. Elsewhere, Old Haileyburians made a statement crushing fellow top-four rival Old Ivanhoe at home; Williamstown CYMS took the points in the Division 1 Grand Final rematch versus Therry Penola; Marcellin did it easy against Oakleigh; and Monash Blues regained top spot through percentage in a major victory over Old Camberwell.

PEGS got off to a slow start in the meeting with Peninsula OB, facing a 10 point deficit at the first change. But the Bombers picked up the pieces after quarter time to take the lead. Five goals in the second term gave PEGS the lead at the half and the efforts carried through to the final siren.

The Bombers pegged on another eight goals in the second half, despite Peninsula closing the gap to under two kicks. PEGS pushed out the lead once again in the last with help from Trent Skurrie’s six goals to run away 33-point victors.

Old Haileyburians set the tone in the finals race convincingly trumping Old Ivanhoe. Following a lacklustre first term the Bloods made a decisive move in the second with the wind, kicking seven goals to one to break the deadlock. Old Ivanhoe couldn’t produce the same in its turn with the breeze and faced an uphill battle going into the final change 30 points behind. Haileybury turned it on again in the last with another seven to win by 66 points. Ex-Saint, Brett Voss proved a huge inclusion with three goals, while Ed Limon (3) and John Nicolopoulos (4) also starred in the victory.

Williamstown CYMS eased past former Grand Final rivals Therry Penola for a rare win in Premier C. Both have struggled in the new section but the CY’s proved again it has Therry’s number.

Williamstown trailed by a goal after the first term, 6

but put Therry to the sword for the remaining three quarters. The CY’s bagged five goals to one in the second quarter, then kept the Lions goalless in the third. And topped it all off with another seven majors in the last to put Therry Penola away by 67 points. Nicholas Ebinger, as he has done most this season, led Williamstown’s goal tally, adding another six to his total.

Oakleigh has proven this season on its day that the Krushers can beat anyone, but coming off the break against the top of the table Marcellin, away from home, proved too much to handle. The Eagles grabbed the early lead with three goals to nil in the opening quarter. Oakleigh bounced back with four majors in the second, only to be trounced by another seven for Marcellin.

The Eagles extended its lead late into the third quarter to blow out beyond 50 points but a late rally by the Krushers held the final margin at 52.

Jeremiah Antypas backed up his eight goals last outing with another bag, while Anthony Beaini was named best on ground.

Monash Blues got the percentage boost it needed to jump Marcellin for top spot. The Blues hosted Old Camberwell – the Wellers have only managed the two wins for the season.

Monash didn’t waste any time in gaining the lead with four first quarter goals. Five more in the second quarter made the margin 34 at half time. Old Camberwell tied the third quarter as both sides struggled to score with just 1.1 a piece. Unfortunately for Old Camberwell the dam wall broke in the last quarter as Monash kicked 11 goals past the Wellers as the final margin rapidly jumped to 97. 13 players hit the PREMIER C — TIPS IN BOLD Old Ivanhoe v Oakleigh Therry Penola v Marcellin PEGS v Monash Blues Old Haileyburians v Williamstown CYMS Old Camberwell v Peninsula OB

FOR THE LOVE OF THE GAME

THE BIG V CLUB — 2015 INDUCTEES The 2015 Big V Club Lunch marks the induction of two Champions and the elevation of one Legend;

ROBERT GROSS, NICK BURNE & ROHAN BROWN Gross’ illustrious playing career spanned 215 club games and 10 representative games over 13 years, including 177 for St Kevins Old Boys. While his statistics are well-known (and even sit on the adjacent page), it is the impact Gross had on his teammates as both a player and mate which resonates with those who knew him best.

Former SKOB teammate Marcus Dollman remembers encountering Gross for the first time in the preseason of 1994.

“He was driving the biggest, ugliest, bright orange Valiant,” Dollman says. “I turned to the new coach Tim Hart and asked who this big unit was rocking up late. ‘That’s Grossy mate and you will need to pay him some respect young fella’ was all I got back from Tim.” “From that time on I sat back and admired the work ethic of Robert when he made it to training. when he got out of his business suit and hit the track it was at a pace and intensity so far above ours as a collective you sat back in awe.”

Titch Callanan shares similar sentiments about Gross and his first impressions at SKOB. “His impact was immediate realising this unassuming accountant could kick a ball a country mile. He could mark, fly above a pack and, best of all, seemed much nicer than his older brother Greg,” 10

Callanan says. “A great family man and blokes like Rob Gross are very hard to find. All in the Amateur football world congratulate Rob on his success.”

Fellow Big V inductee Nick Burne’s 152 club games – for both University Blacks and Old Xaverians - and 13 Big V games saw him make similar impressions upon his own clubmen.

“Nick played the game in the true amateur spirit,” Old Xaverians life member Stephen Curtain says.

“He was scrupulously fair and ever respectful of opponents and umpires. His contribution to the game is marked by his many friendships within amateur football circles and the respect he commands.”

Inducted as a Champion of the Big V in 2008, Brown’s elevation to Legend of the Big V comes as no surprise. Playing 16 representative matches, Brown accumulated a bevy of accolades, including; Big V captaincy, three-time best player trophy and AAFC Carnival representative, twotime All-Australian and Carnival medallist.

Brown starred at club level for Old Melburnians.

Throughout his 220-game career; Brown captained his side, played in four premierships, earned four best and fairest awards, earned induction into Old Melburnians’ team of the century and became a life member.

The VAFA congratulates all three individuals on their respective Big V inductions/elevations and thanks them for their contribution to our community and our league.

LOVE THE GAME FORFOR THETHE LOVE OFOF THE GAME TREVOR BROMLEY CRUSHES KRUSHERS’ GAMES RECORD A few weeks back in game against Therry Penola, Trevor Bromley broke the club record of 266 games held by Ashley Kitts since the end of season 2010. Trevor is an extensively fair player whose had always led by true example showing qualities of sportsmanship far and beyond of what is normally expected and equally at the same time he possesses a one dimensional view of getting the job done. His athleticism has always been a part of his repertoire with innate ability. A defender for most of his career which began in 1997, his has Captained the Seniors in 100 games from 2000 to 2006, won the club’s goalkicking 6 times totalling with 612 to date, won the club’s Senior B&F 3 times, won 4 premiership’s and has received many more accloades, and played in 4 VAFA rep games. All the supporters will be eager to support Trevor for the rest of his career at the Krushers.

CRAIG ‘BRUCE’ MAHONY PLAYS 350 For those of you who do not know, the Mahonys have one of the most irrepressible Australian Rules Football records in existence.

As a family, the Mahonys have played over 1600 games combine. Father Paul played 407, brothers Shane (360), David (303) and Brian (240) also played for many years. However, Craig has the record for most senior games sewn up, amongst a whole load of remarkable achievements. As longtime friend and teammate Justin Hunter put it, ‘There is definitely not many people with the list of achievements at Elsternwick, and I believe that it would be hard to match over the whole VAFA. The remarkable thing is that Craig is as fair as they come. He has never been reported and I would be amazed if he has ever received a Red card, let alone a Yellow card. He is universally renowned around the VAFA and he still to this day gets a tag.

Bruce seems to find this interesting and tends to remind the taggers of other Elsternwick midfielders that are getting more of the ball with the hope that they go them.’

In Craig’s sparkling career, he has kicked over 200 goals, won 4 best and fairest and come runner up a further 4 times, won a League Best and Fairest, was premiership captain in 2005 and captained the club from 2002-2011. He was described as a ‘wily veteran’ on the eve of the 2005 premiership, leading to the question of what the Elsternwick champion would be referred to as now? Either way, his achievement, and that of his family, is one to look at in awe. Congratulations ‘Brucey’!

ANDREW READ SLITHERS INTO RICHMOND CENTRAL’S GAMES RECORD In a weekend of great milestones, Andrew Read played his 202nd game to break Richmond Central’s club games record. Read originally came to the club after moving to Melbourne from Brisbane, barely knowing anyone and stumbled across the Richmond Central side, probably due to his great love of Richmond Football Club. From that point on, the David Tennant lookalike has become a much-loved figure of the Richmond Central outfit. He is a wonderful clubman, long serving club secretary and a multiple premiership-winning player. The lean ruckman has been carried off twice in three weeks, a habit a bloke could used to when it doesn’t involve a stretcher!

Congratulations to Old Melburnians’ TOM BACHET – Acting captain, Tom notched up his 150th game in Round 11 against Parkdale Vultures. Starting in the Old Melburnians’ Under 19’s in 2006, since 2007 Tom has played all but 28 games in the Seniors. A dour backman who always gives everything for his beloved Dark Blues, his efforts belie his size. He was among the best players and snuck forward to kick two goals in his 150th, whilst also maintaining a perfect nine out of nine record as acting captain.

150

Congratulations to Canterbury’s ANDREW BAKER – Bakes started playing with Canterbury in 2006. A prolific goal-kicker, he lurks around the forward line and can snap a goal from anywhere in the 50-metre area. He has achieved runner up Best and Fairest trophies for both Senior and Reserve grades. He relishes club functions and has been known to end up in the “box” at the end of the night.

100

Congratulations to St Bernards’ JAMES BENNIE – James is a great development story at St Bernard’s. Progressing from the U19 Section 2 Premiership team in 2011, James was one of four players in 2014 that played Thirds, Reserves and Senior football. James then had a huge 2014/15 pre-season, and has developed into a reliable, rebounding half back flanker, firmly establishing himself as an integral member of the 1st XVIII “back six”.

100

Congratulatios to SKOB’s PHIL EDGAR – Phil commenced with SKOB is 2008 while a student at St Kevin’s College. He made an immediate impact and in just his second year won the Best First Year Player award in 2009 and the Senior Best and Fairest in 2011. A fearless and determined competitor, Phil is one of the keys to SKOB’s success.

VAFA CONGRATULATES YOU IN REACHING THE MILESTONE

Congratulations to Old Melburnians’ TED DE FEGLEY – Ted played his 100th game for the Old Melburnians last weekend. Starting as a schoolboy in 2009, he has played three-quarters of his games in the Seniors as a fearless, creative player. In his 100th game he was best afield for the OM’s.

Congratulations to Old Melburnians’ NICK VOYAGE – Nick played his 100th game for the Old Melburnians against Parkdale in Round 11 and was named among the best players. A fierce defender, he has played most of his games in the Seniors alongside classmate Ted, with whom he also started at the OM’s.

100

Congratulations to NOBSPC’s MICHAEL O’DONOGHUE – Michael has been the bedrock of the club’s backline for several years now. Upon arrival at the club in 2010 he enjoyed an apprenticeship under long time club backline maestro Chris Hosking, with the two being the key defenders in the 2012 Division 1 Premiership. Mick’s now the general down back, though he does rate himself as a goal kicker, with a bag of six goals in a game to his name when he was once swung forward!

50

Congratulations to Old Xaverian MICHAEL CAIN – Joining U19’s in 2013, Caino played in the losing GF side that year. He played in the 2014 Reserves GF and was in the best players but lost in extra time. After playing forward/midfield, he has moved back, enjoying the greater accountability and developing a defensive aspect to his game.

VAFA CONGRATULATES YOU IN REACHING THE MILESTONE

Congratulations to St. Marys Salesian’s NICK BUSSELL – Commencing as an under-age player, Nick was a member of the Saints 2013 Under 19 premiership team. He is a very fine midfielder able to win the hard ball and use his skills to move the ball forward. Nick is a popular player with teammates and improving all the time.

Congratulations to St. Marys Salesian’s CHRIS McMAHON – A talented big player, ‘Toffa’ can play in a key forward role or as a solid knock ruckman. A fine mark and very good kick for goal, Chris has worked hard on his fitness in recent times and always puts the team first.

Congratulations to Oakleigh’s ANDREW MURRAY – Recruited from Mt Waverley Blues JFC, Andrew played his first senior game against South Melbourne in Round 1, 2004 after spending the previous two seasons in the U19’s. The charismatic Andrew has finally managed to establish himself as a Senior defender in recent seasons.

DIVISION 1

William Balme

I GUESS THIS IS GROWING UP Round 13 has presented us with two delicious curveballs. Two curveballs that may have completely altered the makeup of what I, and many others, tended to think was a foregone conclusion. I know it seems to be a bizarrely romantic notion, falling out of love with something you’ve cherished more than most of your possessions and even more than some of the people you are supposed to love beyond all else, but I have felt the wriggle of dissatisfaction with the AFL. I’m not sure if it is the state of the game or just football fatigue but I am slowly becoming one of those people I formerly despised. The ‘I’m more of a suburban footy fan than a fan of the AFL’.

On the weekend, after witnessing the Lions-Dees snoozer, I realised that I was more excited about Whitefriars knocking off St Mary’s Salesian and Old Geelong announcing themselves as a genuine premiership contender than I was for any of the AFL results. As Blink182 once stated, ‘well, I guess this is growing up.’

The Old Geelong-Kew clash was a most interesting display of footy. With the pre-match withdrawal of Andrew Brazzale from the Kew side, Kew needed a lift from the entire side. They managed spurts of typical Kew footy, but simply could not muster enough to match the rampaging Old Geelong outfit, who won by 13 points. Intriguing matchups took place across the ground, with Wood and Cochrane going head to head and Maibaum on Joyce, but it was the surprise packet of Under 19s player Dave Ennels who bobbed up to kick 3 crucial goals, particularly his 2 goals in the third term when the game was floating the way of the Kew Bears. One of the key moments of the game occurred when Liam Kinsella was run down just as his brilliant solo effort appeared destined to finish in a goal. It was a fascinating battle and one Old Geelong just had to win in order to prove their top 2 credentials. They play Ormond this week. Kew tasted their first defeat since the Semi Final last year. They play the very side that beat them that day, St Mary’s Salesian in what should be another storied fixture of a wonderful rivalry. Rupert Kemp was exceptional for the victors, whilst Assistant Coach Sam ‘Slice’ Bishop was his ever-versatile self for the undermanned Kew side.

@balmey21 In the biggest upset of the round, Whitefriars not only came over the top of St Mary’s Salesian at Ferndale Park, but they convincingly smashed the Saints. Trailing by 39 points, Jess Sinclair tore strips off his troops at quarter time but to no avail.

A ferocious Whitefriars’ side stymied every move they made. My main man, Daniel ‘Picnic Baskets’ Hogan was simply outstanding for the ‘Friars boys and was clearly best on ground. Despite his dominance, he wasn’t alone as 22 contributors were pleasing the healthy Whitefriars contingent, particularly one formerly frustrated football forum contributor who didn’t have to whet his whistle so deeply after the game. The usual suspects, Brett Gatehouse and Sid Jones tried their guts out for SMS, but not enough of their teammates were replying to their pleas (boom tish). Along with Hogan’s 3 and 30+, Hickey kicked 3 and Marlon Simbolon provided firm support. Their finals hopes remain a flicker after two great wins in a row.

NOBS/St Pats moved a game (and a lot of percentage) out of the 5 with a strong 30-point win over Bulleen Templestowe at Ted Ajani. I don’t think there are enough superlatives for Matt Keown, who was once again far and away the best player on the field. With 8 goals, he singlehandedly put Bulleen out of the game in the second half. At the other end, club legend Peter Voglis kicked 5 for the Bullants and Jack Howell played a quality game. NOBSPC had two recruits from Mildura make their debuts, and alongside Keown and cocaptain Lachy Ezard, provided good disposal in a side that has now seen the doors for a possible top four position open up.

Prahran Assumption followed suit with a strong win over the hapless Yarra Valley, almost officially condemning the Bushrangers to 2016 in Division 2. Whilst it was already something of a foregone conclusion, their 85-point loss at Toorak Park has put them one loss away from mathematical impossibility.

and Gerard Hogarth kicking 7 between them.

They sit two games out of the 4 but still remain in the hunt. James Musster was impeccable in the midfield, supported by Daniel Anglin. In the last, they chucked the cue in the rack as both sides experienced one of those ‘can we please end the game’ quarters of footy. Yarra Valley cannot take a trick at the moment, and too much was again left to the talented Richard Seegar and their backline.

Ormond reversed a ¾ time deficit of 5 points to defeat Old Mentonians at Turner Road Reserve by 35 points. With an upset on the cards thanks to a wonderful 5-goal performance from Dustan Mills, it was the work of Chris Coghlan that sparked the turnaround. Martinov kicked 3 and was well supported by Upstill and Stait, with James Gates a steadying influence. Whilst they hardly set the world on fire, Ormond did the hard stuff when it counted and continued their fine season, moving to 12-1 and moving to equal points with Kew. For Old Mentonians, it was again the dash of hyphenator Smith-Cameron proving the catalyst

DIVISION 1

WILLIE BEE’S CLIVE WATERHOUSE MOTR FOR ROUND 14 Some cracking contests this week, particularly the Kew (1st) v St Mary’s Salesian (4th) and the Ormond (2nd) v Old Geelong (3rd) games. I think the latter is the match of the round as it will decide whether Old Geelong is a top 2 side. If Old Geelong wins, they will be 2nd at the round’s end. I think after last week they’ll display their excellence with a 5-point win.

DIVISION 2

@BrentyMann

DISTRICTS BREAK THEIR DUCK South Melbourne were the talk of the VAFA, as the Districts, who had been seemingly all at sea, notched their first win of 2015. Souths hosted Elsternwick at Lindsay Hassett Oval and claimed a resounding 16-point win. The Districts had been thereabouts in the weeks prior and had clearly set themselves for the match, and set-up the win with a five-goals-to-two third quarter.

The loss was a double-blow for Elsternwick who will yet again, have to fight to hold their place in Division 2. The Wicks held sway in the first-half over an inaccurate South Melbourne and led by eight points at halftime. It was in the third however, when the Districts made their move.

They banged home 5.6 to 2.3 which eventually sealed the result. South Melbourne boasted an impressive spread of goal-kickers with MitchellRussell and Jordy Heis bagging three apiece, while McNamara and Rhodes snagged two. Elsternwick were well served by forward duo Justin Hunter (5) and Ben Robertson (4) but the pair required more support. The euphoria may be short lived for South Melbourne, as they head north, to W.R Ruthven Reserve, to take on a seasoned Blues outfit. For Elsternwick, they must bounce back against a Melbourne High side riding high after last week’s nail biting win over Ivanhoe.

Melbourne High sent a shockwave through Division 2, as it upset ladder-leaders Ivanhoe in what was arguably the performance of the year. The Unicorns found themselves four-goals down at quarter-time, and clearly struggling. It was business as usual for Ivanhoe with six goals straight in the first, and seemed to be cruising.

But, for the remaining three-quarters Melbourne High put them to the sword. They cut the margin to a manageable 16-points at halftime and then ramped up the intensity. The Unicorns’ third quarter blitz netted them six goals and held the Hoes to two and subsequently, took an eightpoint lead into the last quarter. The final term was an arm-wrestle, as Ivanhoe attempted to 18

snatch victory from the jaws of defeat. The Hoes won the final term, but the Unicorns would not be denied as they held on by a nail biting threepoints. After a two couple of years, Melbourne High has done plenty right this year in what’s been a year of consolidation. Unicorns’ forward “Panda” Hawking and Hamilton-Ho bagged three, while Svirskis slotted two. The loss was Ivanhoe’s second of the year and may be a mere aberration. It will hopefully be a lesson learnt and an opportunity to reflect and iron out some flaws in their game. Melbourne High will this week start warm favourites against a patchy Elsternwick.

Ivanhoe face a sterner test as it hosts an in-form Old Paradians, who will want to build on last week’s win over St John’s.

Old Paradians staked their claim as a force to be reckoned with as they secured a gritty six-point win over St John’s at Garvey Oval. The JOCs have struggled to recapture their early season form but started the better in near arctic conditions. They held a 14-point quarter-time, and seemed to be cruising. The Raiders went in with a distinct plan to deny St John’s the ball and the high possession game worked to a tee. They controlled the tempo of the game for the following three quarters and had to withstand a late St John’s surge to secure the win. The Raiders this week face top-of-thetable Ivanhoe and a win could see them secure second spot. St John’s host fourth placed Eltham, who like the JOCs, have struggled to hit top form over the last month.

Monash gave Eltham a fright, as the Turtles held off the lowly Gryphons by a miserly seven-points at East Caulfield Reserve. It was a must win for DIVISION 2 — TIPS IN BOLD Monash v Richmond Central Ivanhoe v Old Paradians Elsternwick v MHSOB St John’s v Eltham Northern Blues v South Melbourne

Eltham, but by no means did they have it all their own way. In saying that, the Turtles led at every change and controlled proceedings before they had a fright as the Gryphons charged home in the last. Ben Gill and Zach Tranter bagged five apiece for Eltham while Nuguid and Erwin-Ross kicked three for the Gryphons. Eltham has Northern Blues nipping at their heels and must beat St John’s at Thomas Carroll this week to keep their finals hopes alive. Monash host Richmond Central and must win for alternate reasons. They’re in a dogfight with Elsternwick and South Melbourne to avoid relegation.

win over Richmond Central at Kevin Bartlett Reserve. The Snakes will be rueing the loss, as the inaccurate Snakes kicked 8.20 to the Blues’ 12.11 which effectively ruled out Richmond’s finals hopes. For Northern, the game was a must win so they kept in touch with the top-four, as they sit fifth, equal fourth in percentage. Northern Blues face an “in-form” South Melbourne and simply must win. Richmond Central have a tricky encounter against a plucky Monash side keen to avoid relegation.

Northern Blues’ forward Lachlan McRedmond bagged seven and led his side to a gritty 15-point

THE RACE FOR 6TH After a week off for the rep games, we saw some movement in the ladder from the previous round. Albert Park stunned the Vultures to mathematically keep their finals aspirations alive. Power House gave the Hawks a scare and the Magpies were more efficient. Aquinas was out for blood and the Animal train keeps rolling along. To the games:

AQUINAS DEF. ELEY PARK Looking at a score line of 16-20 to 1-9, you would automatically think of a dominant outing for the Bloods. But tough conditions and the very undermanned Sharks did expose some Aquinas holes in the 3rd quarter. Aquinas, shooting a horrid 0-12 for the term was certainly the worst for any side in the VAFA this year. Unfortunately, the Sharks were unable to capitalise on this, by not scoring their first (and only) goal until mid way through the 4th. Lachlan Barnes, Leigh Toomey and Mick Jess (4 goals) were the stars with tremendous support all through the ground. David Viola and Josh Beasley were best for Sharks.

UHS-VU DEF. BY ALBERT PARK Albert Park traveled down to the Zoo for their “must win” game against the Vultures. If there was ever a time to play UHS-VU, it was this week as the Vultures had 2 of their top 4 goal-kickers missing as well as Churkovich. After a tough 1st quarter, the Falcons from then on made the most of their opportunities and kicked the straightest of all Divison 3 sides for the day, booting 14-5.

Ashley McNaughton (4 goals) extended his team goal-kicking lead to 7 and Nick Thurley was the surprise packet, earning BOG honours and a senior career high 3 goals. Ethan Clarke and Joel Moden were the Falcons best.

LA TROBE UNI DEF. BY WEST BRUNSWICK La Trobe faced the tough task of facing the second placed West Brunswick at the University.

The visitors got off to a quick start with Xavier Fowler and Joel Beer providing some good run from the back half. La Trobe fought back and won the 2nd quarter to be within 3 goals at the main break. The second half was a tough contest 20

@gavsouthern with both teams attacking the ball and tackling hard. Unfortunately for La Trobe, West Brunswick took control of the game with their superior ball skills and converted their chances when they came. A good 3rd quarter burst came from Dylan Muscat, kicking all of his three for the day in the period to put the game to bed. The lead was maintained in the last with both sides scoring 2-2. Ryan McMinn, my man Sam Woollard and Grant Dowler were prolific. Sam Condon kicked two goals in his first senior game for the year for La Trobe. Christian Borovac was BOG.

GLEN EIRA DEF. BY EMMAUS ST. LEO’S A beautiful sunny day at Packer Reserve, suited the Animals tall forwards with Ryan Harding (8 goals) and Chris Beluszar (5), kicking 13 between them. Glen Eira were a skeleton side of their former selves, missing stars in Entwistle, Bradley and Nathan Dennis but, fought the game out holding the rampant Animals to 2 goals in the last quarter. The Animals move to 13-0 with another convincing win. Best for the Animals were flankers Will Hillman and Alex McDougal.

Best for Glen Eira was Luke Barda and Julius Waras Carstensen.

POWER HOUSE DEF. BY HAWTHORN A fantastic game of wet weather footy was played at Ross Gregory Oval despite the rain pausing for the entirety of the contest. The Hawks knew it was going to be a tight slog against their traditional rivals in Power House irrespective of what the ladder suggests. Dave “Uptown Funk” Upton was thriving in the wet and sloppy conditions, as was David “Crowd Favourite” Pritchard. In a scrappy first half, Jess “Kerry-Anne” Kenneally dominated across half forward, taking grabs like it was a dry day. “The Cougar” was kicking goals from half back, causing plenty of problems for the House forwards who seemed to be always finding space.

Controversy saw a last second goal counted to end the 1st half and a 10-point Power House lead. Hawks reduced the lead to 4 and in the last quarter, Dave “Sting” Kennedy started edging DIVISION 3 — TIPS IN BOLD La Trobe v Aquinas Albert Park v Glen Eira West Brunswick v Uhs-Vu Swinburne Uni v Eley Park Emmaus St Leos, Power House and Hawthorn - BYE

out David Burnside in the ruck and was well supported by Paul “The Golden Fry Pan” Nunan, whose 3 huge torpedoes out of the back half set up 3 goals in a 5 minute burst which sealed the game. Luke Stubbs was again brilliant with 5 goals and Brian Kyne was best for Power House.

PREVIEW With 5 rounds to play and just the 4 games this week due to balancing the byes, I don’t see any ladder changes except for our match of the round. To the games for this week: Aquinas (3rd) travel out to La Trobe Uni (10th). If La Trobe can maintain a consistent level, this will increase their percentage and stay off the bottom however I think Aquinas comfortably here.

The Albert Park (8th) vs Glen Eira (7th) is my clear match of the round. Will Glen Eira still be missing guns? Albert Park got it done last week and I’ll stick with them at home.

DIVISION 3

A fresh West Brunswick (2nd) hosts a vulnerable UHS-VU who dropped to 5th. The Vultures need to get something out of this game. It won’t be a victory and their two game lead over 6th will most likely drop to one for their run home.

Eley Park (11th) travel to Swinburne Uni (6th).

Clearly, a must win game for both sides with different reasons. The Sharks have too many injuries. Swinny.

Amazing to think that only NOW do the Animals get their first bye for the year this week when their are 5 sides that have had 2. A well earned break then onto last placed La Trobe. Power House (9th) and Hawthorn (4th) also have byes and will prepare for Aquinas, UHS-VU respectively.

DIVISION 4

Rich Hummerson

@Richie_Humm

LA NINA A COBRA FAN Cast your mind back to 2007, the height of the great drought. Optimistically, the VAFA season was delayed a fortnight in the hope of some midautumn rains, but the rain never came. The barren grounds baked rock hard, the peppering of grass bearing little resemblance to the grounds we grew up on, honing our craft. The wet, sodden days that the big, slower players enjoyed were few and far between, and near terminal bouts of skin grazing would accompany players on the uncomfortable journey home.

On Saturday, eight years on, players were met with far contrasting conditions. After a week of solid rain, Auskick in the morning and four quarters of scrappy ressies football, the grounds resembled sties, and the big men rejoiced.

The usually tranquil streets of Canterbury were awoken when the Box Hill North army rolled into town, and it wasn’t just the incessant cries of ‘ball’ from the Box Hill North bench that had the locals concerned. Box Hill North, happily flying under the radar had come to play, and they pushed Canterbury into territory not travelled since their opening game against Parkside. Box Hill North jumped out of the gates, making the wayward Canterbury pay early, before the Cobras, like they have on so many occasions, steadied the ship. The slender lead at quarter time was as close it got, but it wasn’t until late in the fourth quarter could Canterbury afford to take their foot off the pedal, running out winners by 28 points. Despite his age, Rowan Walmsley continues to dominate, slotting four in an outstanding performance. Tommy Lowden had the sticky mitts and the go-go gadget arms firing and David ‘shut the’ Gates went about his work quietly. For Box Hill it was Nicholas Lang and Dylan Liistro who impressed.

Last week, I wrote of how Manningham’s prospects of a finals berth were slim to zilch. Out of players and out of luck, Jock McDonald and his merry men were looking towards next year.

A week on, owing to a cheeky win over North Brunswick and the phenomenon that is a final six in an 11 team competition, Manningham find themselves knocking on the door. The Bali 22

trips must be over, and the trainers performing miracles, with a vastly improved Manningham side hitting the park this week, a move that paid immediate dividends. Given Allard Park is a slop in the middle of summer, players were forced to negotiate quicksand with Mannningham adjusting to the appalling conditions first. They led from siren to siren, with nine points the final margin. Sean Leonard had a field day, collecting best afield honours, while Danny Wills chimed in with four majors. Ben Gallagher as always did his bit for the bulls, kicking three and Jimmy Hayes put his best performance in for the club.

After losing 99% of their games in recent years, the Chadstone boys had used their fair share of excuses, most of them inaccurate. However this week, they can legitimately blame the loss on their wayward kicking in front of goal. Remarkably, Chadstone kicked 14 behinds before slotting their first major. And after their first goal, they only kicked another two behinds, despite piling on nine goals. While Chadstone dominated possession, South Mornington was just unassumingly going about their business, building an unassailable lead in the process. The Tigers ran out winners by 23 points, Brendan Bryant, Jake Gaillard and Kade Woodruff all putting in solid performances. Jake Farrugia was again dominant in front of goal for Chadstone, kicking three and Carl Margary toiled hard throughout the day.

They’ve had their fair share of heartbreak this season, but you’d suspect Parkside’s loss against the rampant Point Cook will probably rank the worst. After an incredible first stanza, Parkside had shocked the one once premiership favourites, piling on eight first term goals. Shane Potter was clunking everything and Shane McLaren had more clearances than a Rebel Sport in Melbourne DIVISION 4 — TIPS IN BOLD North Brunswick v South Mornington Canterbury v Parkside Mount Lilydale v Manningham Point Cook v Masala Westbourne v Chadstone

flogging off State of Origin merchandise. At half time, Parkside went into the sheds with a handy 34-point lead, a win for the good guys beckoned (Ed. note: This is not a slight against Point Cook. I’m sure they are decent blokes as well!). But it wasn’t to be, Point Cook jumped out of the gates after the main break, eating into the deficit, and then with an air of inevitability drifting through, they won by eight points. William Dawson was fantastic in front of goals and Matty Volk, like he has on so many occasions before was the anchor, for the ailing Point Cook.

Whichever the reason, Westbourne annihilated Mount Lilydale by 140-points, Collins kicking eight, again in a performance that will send shivers through the Canterbury camp in anticipation for what has become the fixture most likely in September.

You’d have more chance of cracking the Da Vinci Code than making sense of Mount Lilydale’s season. They started off abysmal, became frightfully dominant for three or so weeks, and now it appears, are back to where it all started.

Or perhaps, we’re not giving Dale Collins and Westbourne Grammarians enough credit.

CLUB WAREHOUSE RISING STAR 2015 JEREMIAH ANTYPAS – MARCELLIN Congratulations to this week’s Rising Star Nomination Jeremiah Antypas. Jeremiah is having a stellar season for Marcellin currently sitting third in Premier C’s Leading Goal Kickers. Jeremiah plays predominantly on the wing and has also become an exceptionally dangerous forward. He has played every game this year for Marcellin and has only been held goalless once this year. From his 12 games, Jeremiah has kicked a staggering 40 goals including a bag of 12 in round 1 and 8 goals in Round 11 & 12.

Although Jeremiah is elusively skillful, playing similar to nick Dal Santo, it is his speed and aerial work that are his greatest assets, combining the two to rarely be beaten in a contest.

Jeremiah is enjoying his third year at the club and has earnt the respect of his fellow teammates for his leadership and sportsmanship on the field.

* to be eligible for the club Warehouse Rising Star, a player must be born no earlier than 1994 and playing his first full season of senior football.

RETROSPECTIVE

Geoff Reilley

@GeoffreyReilley

5 YEARS AGO – 2010 Collegians kept pace with De La Salle at the top of the Premier A Section ladder by defeating Old Melburnians 14.21 to 6.6 with OM’s only bright spot, the first quarter, when they held Collegians scoreless while scoring 2.3. Collegians 10.11 in the second quarter must have been great footy. Best – Scott, Hosking, Corp, Bull, Stone, Fry (Coll) and Playfair, Wilmoth, Freezer, Mulquinney, Ray, Beck (OM’s).

In Premier B it appeared there was a major boil over occurring when Hampton Rovers led St Bernards by 8 goals at the 20-minute mark of the third term. Whatever sparked the ‘Bernies’ into action, it worked as they ran riot, made up the difference and then fought out the final tense moments of the match to win 13.8 to 11.15. Best – Indomenico, Garth, Harris (4), Byrne, Gamwell, Overman (StB) and Fletcher, Devereaux, Carr, Corp (5), Fallon, Robbins (HR).

Premier C senior coaches were – Dave Murray (Mazenod), Steven Lawrence (Caulfield Grammarians), Simon Taylor (Fitzroy), Nick Mitchell (Old Geelong), Gavin Kerr (Rupertswood), Dave Matthews (Parkdale), Michael Oaten (Ormond), Jason Mifsud (Beaumaris), Bernie Sheehy (AJAX) and Tim Kilworth (Old Camberwell).

The Big V won the AAFC Under 23 Championship when it defeated Tasmania Under 23 team 15.16 to 5.5. Best for Victoria – Baldwin, Zimbachs, Watts, Semmel, Mercuri (4), Nicholson.

The Ormond Amateur Football Club recorded the passing of one of its true champions, Graeme “Lumpy” Moran. A close checking back pocket or a very dependable full back, Lumpy’s record was magnificent and matched the regard in which he was held by all at Ormond. His 246 games for the Monds included the 1968 B Section premiership and he was a key member of the first golden era at Ormond when they won three consecutive A Grade flags in 1971, 72 and 73. Later honoured with Life Membership, Lumpy was an outstanding clubman and co-authored the club’s history book, “Ormond the first Fifty Years” with fellow life member, Geoff “Silver” Harris. Described appropriately as a quintessential fair-dinkum Aussie good bloke, his big beaming smile was inspiration in itself. It was a pleasure to have known Graeme “Lumpy” Moran!

10 YEARS AGO – 2005 It was an interesting day in A Section but the game between Old Haileybury and St Kevins appeared to be a fait accompli given Haileybury were second and SKOBS on the bottom. At half time a ‘turn up’ was brewing with SKOBS leading 8.6 to 6.4 and Matt Lucas ever dangerous in front of goal and Luke Mahoney at his brilliant best. OH narrowed the gap by the last change with only 1 goal in it.

Just when SKOBS looked like taking it down to the wire, the Haileybury talls, Jenke, Seccull, O’Farrell et el, asserted their influence and the importance of the ‘double chance’ position took precedence with a 14.13 to 12.9 result leaving SKOBS disappointed. Best – O’Farrell (5), Jenke, McIntyre, Seccull, Corrigan, Brown (OH) and Giansiracusa, Mahoney, Lucas (3), McKee (3), Dowd, Byrne (StK).

Sacha Koffman and Leah Gallagher were the field umpires.

In B section, Old Essendon strengthened their chance of a finals’ berth with an impressive win over Caulfield Grammarians, 19.14 to 16.13 and probably snuffed out any chance the Fields would have of September action. It was a high scoring last quarter with Caulfield kicking 5 goals but Essendon trumping that with 7.

Mazenod’s Mark “Muzza” Murray recorded his 300th game having started with the U19’s in 1989.

After a brief stint with De La Salle, Mark returned to Mazenod in 1993and all his games with the ‘Nodders’ had been in the senior team.

At the recent Elsternwick 100 year celebration the Team of the Century (post WWll) was named. B: Brian Mahony, David Mahony, Alan Ramsay HB: Denny Contin, Don Williams, Rod Hargreaves C: Jeff Perkins, Ron Neville, Craig Mahony HF: Les Rigg, Ken Holmes, Chris Farrington F: Michael Andrew, Max Leslie, Jock Sellars R: John Holt, Gary Rosewarne, Leigh Murphy I/C: Neil Christie, Bill Elliott, Graham Holmes, Col Howarth, Alan Lee, Russell Nash Coach: George Page, Captain: Gary Rosewarne.

20 YEARS AGO – 1995 SPECIAL EVENT Hampton Rovers are having a home game lunch this Saturday to honour the 1995 Premiership team, the Rovers first premiership since 1951 – a gap of 44 years. 1995 Coach Don Scarlett has rounded up over 20 of the team and support group for what will be a big lunch followed by an after game reunion. Chip LeGrand, now a journalist at the Australian, was skipper, VAFA executive member THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2015

Sue Anderson’s son Stephen won the B&F with the Coach’s son Chris Scarlett named the most improved. Best players in the grand final were Phil Amoore and Denver Artz. Leading goalkicker for the season was Mark Crawford who kicked 118.

Hampton Rovers 21.9.135 d Thomastown 13.9.87.

All the best today to Don and the boys – enjoy the memories.

The CEO, Phil Stevens, had asked the VAFA President in 1995, David Burnes, to write a report on the previous weekend’s representative game against the VCFL. David took great pleasure in submitting his report as the VAFA team won the match 11.12 to 10.10. The result was somewhat unexpected given the VAFA had lost to South Australia earlier in the month. Trailing at half time and level at three quarter time, the VAFA played a great last quarter. VAFA best players were M Blood (best player selected by VAFA Selectors), D Connell, M Brady, M Armstrong, A McDonald, A Pryor (best player selected by VCFL Selectors) and S Theodore.

In A Section, Ormond held their third place on the ladder by holding out a determined Old Trinity in a very tight, low scoring game; only 5 goals being scored until three quarter time. Ormond increased their work rate substantially in the final term to kick 5 to 1 and ran out winners 7.11 to 4.9. Ormond kicked better than their Reserves team, who, although kicking 1.15, won their game by 7 points!

Best in the senior match– Edgell, Jobling, James, McDonald, Sebo, Wood (Ormond) and Bladeni, Dalrymple, Rogers, Oldfield, Ramsden, Glass (OT).

– Lindsay Campbell, despite missing many games through injury and Terry Jewson who had missed approximately two seasons through injury!

40 YEARS AGO – 1975 St Kevins Old Boys President, Michael O’Kelly, recorded his 100th game. Michael had been a fearless player and since 1968 had been a mainstay as the club’s administrator, social secretary, secretary, captain and now president.

St Kilda CBC (C Section) confirmed their top position when they more than doubled Powerhouse’s score, 15.10 to 6.11. Best – Kay, White, Sherman (CBC) and Cross, Newton, Daniel (Powerhouse).

In A Section, ladder leaders St Bernards were shattered when Coburg (5th), 34 points down at the final change, kicked 6.7 to 1.1 to get up and win by 2 points. Best – Calleson, Leckie, Ellis (Coburg) and M Mahoney, Phelan, Mitchell (St Bernards).

45 YEARS AGO - 1970 Monash (5th) lost their chance of entering the top four when they went down to Uni Blues (6th) in a low scoring game and Ormond kicked three goals against the wind in the last quarter to defeat Melbourne High School Old Boys by 26 points. It was MHSOB’s third successive defeat but they held their place in the top four as a result of Monash’s defeat.

Three Ormond players reached 100 games – Brett Collins, Darren Edgell and Anthony Grace. All had come through the Under 19 team.

The Umpire’s Association welcomed Jack Fox, Les Bohan, David Doherty, Bill Mason, Norman Sharpe and Ron Saunders as life members.

30 YEARS AGO – 1985 Parkside were going along nicely in B Section and hosted Old Brighton in this round. Brighton may have been facing their last chance of a top four finish and in the first quarter with the wind, had plenty of the ball. Unfortunately their shooting for goal was way off, 1.6 for the quarter was costly.

Parkside took full advantage of the scoring end in the second term kicking 9.6 to 1 behind and it was all over. Final score, 17.13 to 5.11 in Parkside’s favour and the ‘Red Devils’ could pose a real threat to the two teams above them in the coming weeks. Best – A Shaw, Bradley (3), Yoksich, Franklin, Jones, G Shaw (Parkside) and McLennan, Cameron, James, Hoar, McMahon, Welch (Old Brighton).

65 YEARS AGO - 1950 Geelong gave Ormond a heck of a fright at Corio when they led by 14 points at half time and it took Ormond until late in the final quarter to get in front and to take the 6 points. In those days it was quite a trip down to Geelong, many visiting teams started slowly but one constant was the magnificent hospitality by the Geelong Amateurs at the after match!

Old Paradians had a real chance to gain a place in the B Section top four when they met Collegians.

There is no doubt Paradians kicked themselves out of the game with a final score of 4.23! They lost by 5 goals!

No less than two players reached their 300 game milestones at North Brunswick within two weeks THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2015

MEGT UNDER 19

MEGT U19 Premier with John Donohoe @jdonohoe12

ST. KEVINS BITTEN BY SHARKS Beaumaris sent a stern message to the rest of the competition reminding people not to forget about them with an 18-point victory over heavyweights St.Kevins at Banksia Reserve. Beaumaris looked the better team all day, their clean ball use being the cornerstone of their win. They were very good out of the middle of the ground and were quite composed going forward.

Defensively they were tested but resolute, which the senior side could do with more of in their battle to avoid relegation. For SKOB, it was not their best day but they stayed with the Sharks throughout the contest and persisted with strong attack on the footy and SKOB intent on the pill. A terrific effort from Beaumaris who jumped to third on the ladder at a crucial time of the year, while SKOB drop to 4th after a few poor weeks of footy.

De La Salle continue to stay within touching distance of the top 4 with a 23 point win over Scotch at Camberwell Sports Ground. Tyquin kicked 3 as did Krelle, who continues to show plenty in his team’s up and down season. Kalgirou was Scotch’s best player giving them plenty all day with classy ball use throughout. Martinez was De La’s best player and was crucial in driving their side toward an excellent win. Scotch led by 7pts at half time but De la were far too good from that point on, getting the job done relatively easily in the end.

Old Melburnians continued their rich vein of form with a 7-point victory over Old Trinity whose struggles continue after winning the premiership in Section 2 last season. OMs led by 23 at half time before the OTs rallied to trail by a solitary point at the final change. A terrific last term by both sides saw OMs take the points in what was to become their 4th win of the season. Kelly and Lappin were outstanding while Meares booted 3 goals for the victors. Trinity look like they may be heading back to section 2 next season after struggling through season 2015. Their best players were James Nitsopolous and James Hargreaves as big ‘T-Bone’ 44

Holloway kicked 3 in a stellar performance.

Uni Blues were in the contest with Old Xavs until quarter time before the Old Xavs stormed away with an 8 goal to 0 term and were never challenged from there. The Xavs are building plenty of momentum in the lead up to the finals and have now beaten every team at least once.

As we have seen so often with the Xavs, they will head into the finals with plenty of spirit and belief.

Blues have performed well recently but the Old Xavs were simply far too strong with Kennedy and Troiani kicking 5 each, with the latter named best on ground in the aftermath of the one-sided clash.

Keach kept fighting all day and was Uni Blues best player. It was a comprehensive and impressive performance by the Barkers’ Road boys, who now move to second on the ladder.

St Bernards won via forfeit against Uni Blacks.

THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2015

MEGT U19 SECTION 2 & 3 with Tom Neuendorf

SECTION TWO A fresh and firing Whitefriars unit were too classy for Mazenod on Saturday afternoon, thumping the Nodders by 51 points at Central Reserve. The first half belonged to the Friars, who took a handy 26-point lead into the main break on the back of some deadly shooting for goal. From twelve scoring shots Whitefriars registered eleven majors, and Mazenod did well to be as close as they were considering the accuracy of their opposition. Mazenod came out in the third quarter with an appetite for the contest, perhaps sensing that they were within striking distance. They clawed their way back to 16-points down at the final change with Christian Poretti getting plenty of leather. The Friars lifted their work rate in the final stanza and booted 8.0 to 2.2, further highlighting their brilliant conversion on the day. Ryan Malt was best afield, booting six goals for the winners.

In other results, Parkdale was convincing victors over Marcellin, St Bedes/Mentone thrashed Old Ivanhoe by 109-points, Old Brighton barely left their attacking half in their 128-point demolition of Collegians, and Fitzroy flexed their muscle against an improving Caulfield Grammar unit to the tune of 62-points.

SECTION THREE In the match of the round, Williamstown scraped home against Ormond by two points at E.E Gunn Reserve. In a match of momentum swings, Ormond flew out of the blocks kicking seven goals to one in the first quarter. This lead was short lived however, as Williamstown charged back into the contest to find themselves only 17-points down at the half. The game was evenly contested in the third quarter as both sides struggled to take control of the arm wrestle, but you got the sense that Williamstown had the best of the play. In the last quarter Willy stepped up a gear and most importantly turned their momentum into goals, taking the lead late and holding on by the slimmest of margins. Matthew Morris was best afield and Mitch Parkinson booted four for the winners.

Elsewhere, Old Geelong remain on top of the ladder following their 50-point win over Old Camberwell, whilst Old Carey are hot on their heels after their 96-point thumping of Old Xaverians, and Hampton Rovers were convincing six goal victors over St Bernards.

UMPIRES CORNER

@VAFAUA

Saturday saw us greeted by cool, clear conditions, which we’re sure was appreciated by the guys that went to Bendigo for the representative games. It was a bit brisk for those that had 9:20 games, but turned into a cracking day! Also, we were a bit thin on the ground this week, so a number of umpires had opportunities in higher grades, hopefully you all made the most of your chance.

BIG GREYHOUNDS? We’ve been sitting on this one for a little while, but figured that now is as good a time as any to have a chuckle. At the start of the year Andy Tong was officiating at Caulfield with Andrew Walters. Andy has come to us this year after a bit of a sabbatical, but prior to that he used to run around in the Eastern Football League.

It’s fair to say, that Andy wouldn’t have umpired games this close to the city or the bay and as such wouldn’t be aware of the landmarks around the area. However, we’re pretty sure he would know the major metropolitan horse racing tracks. So you can imagine Andrew’s surprise when Andy asked him if, “Is that the dog track over there?”

Thanks to the Simpsons, we’ve heard of greyhounds being called little horses, but we’ve never come across anyone getting it the other way round.

PRE-FINALS DINNER The pre-finals dinner is AUGUST 24th – Mark this date in your diaries Remember that this is a compulsory function for all umpires however if you are unable to attend you must notify Lionel Katz (dinner@vafaua.asn.au) by 5pm July 27th.

This is also the deadline to advise if you are bringing a plus one on the night. If you haven’t notified Lionel by this date, then your pay will be deducted whether you attend or not!

Dylan Alcott OAM is our guest speaker for the night, you can refresh your memory about Dylan below, and the MC duties will be handled by…………Well, you’ll find that out on the night!

Dylan was born with a tumour wrapped around his spinal cord which was operated on during the first few weeks of his life. The tumour was successfully cut out, however it left Dylan a paraplegic, leaving him wheelchair bound for the rest of his life.

Dylan developed a love for sport and has competed for Victoria in swimming and for Australia in wheelchair tennis and wheelchair basketball. In 2008 at the Beijing Paralympics at the age of just 17 he became the youngest ever gold medal winner for wheelchair basketball.

52

In 2014, Dylan returned to playing tennis and claimed the quad wheelchair singles title at the 2015 Australian Open and 2015 French Open. He is currently ranked #1 in the world and was recently crowned the Most Outstanding Athlete with a disability at the recent Tennis Victoria Awards. We look forward to hearing from Dylan on 24 August 2015.

Remember that this is a compulsory function for all umpires however if you are unable to attend you must notify Lionel Katz (dinner@vafaua.asn. au) by 5pm July 27th. This is also the deadline to advise if you are bringing a plus one on the night.

TIGHT CONTESTS LOW SCORES La Trobe has beaten St Bernards by a point in a tight low scoring contest at La Trobe University.

La Trobe did not score a goal after half time, just three points but managed to hold off an inaccurate St Bernards outfit that kicked three goals, 10 behinds. Liam Guy’s two goals proved the difference in the final result.

Ivanhoe was 40 points too strong for Point Cook to remain on top of the ladder. They led from start to finish with Samuel Aanensen kicking four goals and Max Post three to be the best on ground in the win.

Old Paradians recovered from a slow start to run out 31 point winners over Williamstown. Just one point separated the teams at the first break but Old Paradians pulled away in the second quarter with five goals to two. Matthew Biviano kicked four goals while Darcy Cotter was best on for Old Paradians. Tripodi and Hunt were solid for Williamstown but were unable to affect the result.

In the other game, UHS-VU/Flemington defeated University Blues.

U19 SECTION 4

PENINSULA GETS A SCARE, MAZENOD DOUBLE TONNE Peninsula’s unbeaten rein at the top of the ladder weathered a serious challenge on Saturday as St Kevin’s came back hard in the last quarter. They had plenty of chances in the last quarter but could only convert one in a goal as Peninsula stood firm to hold on for a four point win. For Peninsula, Kellerman kicked three majors and Jarrah Primrose saw plenty of ball while Harrison Brookes was good for SKOB with three goals.

Mazenod has amassed over 200 points for the second time in three games against a hapless Parkdale Vultures. The Nodders banged on seven goals in the first and 10 in the second to lead by 105 at half time leaving the game all but over.

When the carnage finally ended and Parkdale was allowed to go home, the score read 30-21201 to 2-2-14. Martino and Murdock kicked six goals each while Byrne booted five for Mazenod.

forward for Northern Blues with four goals in their 83 to 28 win.

Therry Penola recorded a good win against higher placed De La Salle 78 to 46. Matthew Pauthenet was best on with two goals as the Lions pulled away in the third quarter to set up the win.

In the final two games, Beaumaris beat Old Haileyburians 100 to 64 and Oakleigh accounted for last placed MHSOB by 57 points.

Norm Nugent

THREE TOP FOUR TEAMS LOSE SPARTANS TOO STOIC FOR CROCODILES SECTION 1 Hawthorn triumphed in their clash with the unbeaten Old Xaverians, who went down to the second placed Spartans by thirty-eight points. As in seasons past the small Rathmines Road Reserve proved to be the “Waterloo” for the Old Xaverians, who trailed Hawthorn throughout the match. At the last change, the Spartans led by thirty points and they increased their lead in the final quarter when they held the Xaverians scoreless. Best players for Hawthorn were; David Lauletta (4 goals), Nicholas Criticos and Anthony Marguccio.

For Old Xaverians; James McDonnell, Matthew Walsh and Andrew Nolen (in game number 200) were best.

Ivanhoe as they have done throughout the season opened brightly against Prahran/ Assumption and built an eight-point lead by quarter time. From then on Prahran/ Assumption player’s greater skill level took over as Ivanhoe lapsed through tiredness and their inaccurate kicking left them nineteen points behind the “Two Blues” at game’s end. Veteran Craig Berger again stood out for Prahran Assumption with four goals.

Richmond Central moved into third place at the expense of La Trobe University whom they defeated by twenty points. La Trobe, who led for a lot of the match, faded out in the last quarter against the fast finishing “Cardinals”, who turned their six point three quarter time deficit into victory by twenty points. La Trobe, after doing so well early in the season now find themselves in danger of missing out on a Semi Final berth.

Old Geelong forfeited to North Old Boys/ St Patrick’s.

SECTION 2 Melbourne High School Old Boys scored their best win of the season when they defeated second placed Albert Park by twelve points. The game proved to be a close contest as the scores were fairly even throughout the first three quarters. Albert Park, who led at each change were held scoreless in the last quarter when the “Unicorns”, despite 58

marked inaccuracy, added two goals to claim victory. Three weeks out from the finals, each of these teams faces problems. For Melbourne High, accurate kicking must be a priority, while the Albert Park leadership must address reasons for their last quarter fade out.

Third placed Kew overcame spirited opposition from a determined Ormond side and won their encounter by thirty-seven points. Kew, who led throughout the match, can now look preparing their best side for the First Semi Final. Best players for Kew were: Kieran Gannon, Jarrod Balme, Timothy Cook and Sebastian Smart. Ormond’s best were: Tim Ashton, Evan Atkins and umpire turned player, Josh Cukieman West Brunswick kept their flickering final hope alive when they easily defeated University High School/ V.U. by eighty-three points. The victory was set up by the seven goal second quarter effort to which the University High/ V.U. players could only respond with one minor score. This win improved the West Brunswick percentage markedly although they face a Sisyphean task to qualify for the First Semi Final.

The “great trek” made by St Francis Xavier to play Westbourne Grammarians , had no effect on the players, who had their “High Noon” with a one hundred and fifty four point victory. Fourteen players shared the ‘Saints” twenty-five goals, of which Josh. La franchi kicked five. (His effort alone, more than doubled the Westbourne score!!)

ROUND 14 PREVIEW SECTION 1 Hawthorn will start favourites against Prahran/ Assumption in their scheduled afternoon match.

In their Round 2 encounter, Hawthorn triumphed by one hundred and sixty points. Since that April game, it is fair to say Prahran/ Assumption have improved as instanced by their ten point victory when these sides clashed on Como Park in Round 8. On the small Rathmines Road Reserve, I favour Hawthorn to prove too fast and strong for Prahran/ THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2015

Assumption.

On Friday night, I expect La Trobe University will recapture its evasive winning form at the expense of Ivanhoe who play well for parts of games but who so far has not revealed the stamina to play out four quarters. The huge ground will exacerbate this problem and enable La Trobe to ensure they hold fourth place. Richmond Central should continue on its winning way by defeating North Old Boys/ St Patrick’s who are not enjoying success this season. I expect Old Xaverians to bounce back with a vengeance today to atone for their loss last week. Their running, open style game will be suited to the wide wings of Como Park (once the home ground of the Old Xaverians).

SECTION 2 Albert Park should return to the winning list today at the expense of University High School/ V.U., who has only one victory to show for their 2015 efforts. In a final preview, Melbourne High School Old Boys will host the undefeated St Francis Xavier team in an afternoon match. Melbourne High has hit top form in recent Rounds, like they did in 2014 and they will be trying to inflict the first defeat on St Francis. Despite all of this, I feel St Francis overall talent will see them win again today.

Kew, who meets West Brunswick Saturday morning on Victoria Park, must win to insure they finish in the four. Their opponents, West Brunswick must win to have any chance of finishing in the four. The game, which should provide a fierce contest, could be decided by which team is more accurate in front of goal as both have been wayward kickers this season. At home I select Kew. Ormond face the long journey westward to play Westbourne Grammarians who failed dismally last week. Ormond, on the other hand impressed with their determination and persistence. Ormond to win.
