Michael Hazell - VAFA President

UNDERVALUED OR MISUNDERSTOOD? Perhaps like many of you, recent events happening around our world have made me reflect upon how fortunate we are in Australia. This in turn has caused me to reflect upon community sporting clubs and why we at the VAFA believe they are so important.

I have long had a firm belief that the contribution that community sporting clubs make to Australia is undervalued, or if not undervalued, then perhaps not properly understood. In particular, our VAFA clubs.

Take the concept of amateurism at community sporting level. One might understand amateurism as being about players not being paid and playing for the love of the game. Which of course it is. But going deeper, amateurism is also about helping to ensure that we preserve a voluntary sector in society. At its essence, players not competing for money means in fact that they are acting as volunteers every time they run out to play, doing something necessarily without the expectation of something in return. I would argue that this is a significant contribution to our society.

Take the simple concept of people coming together on a Saturday to watch a game, in particular attending Saturday club lunches, which are such an important part of our VAFA club community. One might understand this coming together as a great opportunity to catch up with people, watch a game of local football, and support your local club. Which of course it is. But going deeper, coming along to a club lunch on a weekend is where people meet each other face to face in a large group environment and where everyone is equal. Unlike the workplace, many of

the usual hierarchies do not exist. I would argue that this is a significant contribution to our society.

Even the prospect of a sporting club struggling at community level and achieving little success I would argue creates significant benefit for our community. Many would define success as having a large club, with strong numbers, where there are many volunteers and where there are little struggles. Which of course is a definition of success. But going deeper, there is also a real quality in being involved in a sporting club where things do not quite work as well as they should, where there are no complex titles and ranks, and where it is possible to still know everyone’s name and things are kept at a very personal level. I would argue that this is a significant contribution to our society.

I am reminded of a very good question that was asked of me at last year’s AGM, where some suggestions were made about improving the tribunal system at the VAFA. Some valid ideas were put forward about perhaps we could resource it more, make it more professional, even bring in a formal video review process. These were all valid ideas, but I could not help but wonder whether we would be better off retaining what we currently have, where things do not work as perfect as they might. Perhaps by retaining some imperfection, we continue to build tolerance, resilience and acceptance.

Governments and elite sporting organisations in Australia do a lot of good things to help out community sporting clubs in Australia. However, there is a lot more that could be done, as we should never take for granted how lucky we are in Australia. Hopefully a greater understanding of some of the hidden benefits that sporting clubs at community level provide to our society, some examples of which are set out above, will aid in our quest for more to be done.

ELEPHANT IN THE ROOM It’s the most uncomfortable of subjects, talking about the teams that are struggling to win the requisite number of games. Old Trinity is on a slippery slope. At present a season that has promised so much, is unraveling just as quickly as their whirlwind re-entry to Premier commenced. Four losses in a row, has seen their three game break on fourth spot evaporate and they could now miss the finals. At the other end of the spectrum, De La Salle failed by just seven points to find themselves a game behind eighth placed Old Brighton. The Tonners have a trip to the Dairy Bell (Rd 16) ahead of them that could likely determine who will drop. However, we cannot rule out Beaumaris either. The Sharks are on a seven game losing streak, although a strong percentage is their salvation. St Bedes/Mentone Tigers are a proud club, but their seven years in Premier is coming to a close. A premiership and two runners-up efforts have highlighted a fantastic stay. There is not a club in the VAFA that has more fun whilst still maintaining a respect of all teams for their prowess on the field. The Tigers have Blacks and Xavs away in the next fortnight, whilst their best is capable of winning these types of matches, the reality of their form in 2014 suggests otherwise.

Old Xaverians’ defeat of University Blacks has Xavs as the form team of the comp on a five game win streak. Arguments can be mounted that Xavs had more to play for, and Blacks were missing key players, however every Blacks player and their coach Cameron Roberts were all disappointed to lose this match. An inaccurate 2.10 in the first term from Blacks was exacerbated by at least half of those behinds being rushed by Xavs defenders.

The return of Brendan Goss for his first game in Xavs colours this year was a highlight for both the red and black faithful and the neutral observer. His impact was immediate when he took a contested mark to open the scoring for Xavs. Goss ended the day with five goals never leaving the forward arcs. Blacks, despite their omissions, had their chances to win the game closing the gap to just a kick in the last. However the manic tackling of Xavs meant Uni were always under either real or 2

perceived pressure, resulting in uncharacteristic errors. Tom Napier was a solid contributor for four quarters but he was one of the few to stamp his card each term. Xavs ultimately had more contributors for longer, Murphy Ambrose, Ben Kennedy and the return of Andy Biddlecombe allimportant across the duration of the match.

De La Salle have a fantastic record against Collegians, particularly so at Harry Trott. That of course is irrelevant when they couldn’t win the one game they desperately would have wanted to win. De La controlled large swathes of this game, led at every change except the critical final siren.

David Lowe was a much-valued inclusion for De La and his waxing with Matt Fieldsend and Jacob Gotch was paying dividends in the middle. Adrian Indovino has been one De La’s better players this year and his second goal sent De La to a 20 point lead in the middle of the third. Collegians stepped it up a notch and Taft continued his great form in the forward line this year to boot two goals in a short period – he would finish with six goals – and Collegians trailed by a point at the last change.

From there Collegians looked like winners but De La again floundered chances where as the Lions kicked theirs. Lindsay Apted’s improvement this year has been stark and his consistency was rewarded with three goals for the Lions.

Old Brighton pinched memorable away win at Old Trinity that only three weeks ago they had no right to even pencil in. The Tonners can call Dan Anthony ‘the difference’ whenever they meet the T’s next, as his six goals were telling in the upset win. Conversely the T’s couldn’t find a winning forward. Weatherson is too often forced to lead up the ground leaving no one to come out of the goal square. Furthermore, Harry Tinney’s stellar year has potentially saved Old Trinity from this kind of rut earlier than now. Old Trinity started the superior team but the Tonners responded to work their way back into the contest and after quarter time were the better side for longer periods.

This game could still have swung Old Trinity’s way. After a strong Anthony mark, an obscure umpiring decision allowed a defender standing a metre from Anthony, to tackle him as he began his approach, a decision which astonished everyone and very nearly swung the momentum of the game. Trinity raced the ball forward and goaled.

Nevertheless Old Brighton responded, Marcel Bruin and Matt Gadsen were also prominent in a win that has them eyeing off a spot at this level in 2015.

For the second consecutive week Old Scotch made an opening term statement that left their opposition in a state of flux. This time it was St Bedes/Mentone Tigers who felt the wrath of the Cardinals as the deluge of goals didn’t stop until their relatively subdued final quarter. Mark Passador kicked another bag of six goals, but it was the overall team performance of Old Scotch that was impressive. Quarters of 6, 7 and 9 goals showed a ruthlessness born out of a costly ANZAC Day loss to the Tigers earlier this year. Pat

Andrew Merrington must enjoy the seaside. A fortnight earlier the St Bernard’s forward bagged five goals against St Bedes/Mentone and repeated the dose at Beaumaris last week. Another great Beauy start was reeled in to leave the Sharks clear by a point at the main break, before St Bernard’s broke clear with a six goal premiership quarter.

Sullivan was again wielding influence for the Snowdogs but whilst Gower and Petering were playing well for the Sharks they couldn’t prevent their side falling for a seventh straight week, a run that was incidentally started when the Sharks fell at St Bernards.

Kean tried his best to inspire and Michael Barnes kicked a great goal but overall the Tigers were never really in this. Richard Eva again produced a quality performance and Jack Bull despite again receiving heavy treatment was able to be influential through the middle.

FEW SURPRISES There weren’t too many surprises last Saturday, as even I managed to tip all five results correctly for the first time this year! It was a perfect day for football as the overnight rain subsided leaving spectators to bask in sunshine and certain players of fair complexion to reach for the sun cream.

Uni Blues accounted for Old Carey to prove themselves as the class team of the competition; Old Melburnians enjoyed a victory over Old Haileybury; while Mazenod and AJAX had wins against Caulfield Grammarians and Old Ivanhoe respectively. The Nodders rise continued, as they remain close behind the OMs’ heels with only percentage keeping them out of fourth spot.

Meanwhile, St Kevins won comfortably over Fitzroy to sustain their buffer over the top four chase group and they hold on to third place.

Any questions regarding Uni Blues’ supremacy at the top of the table were put to bed last Saturday, with a strong win over second placed Old Carey at home. A typically slow start saw the Blues trail at quarter time, and an inability to convert goals saw them move in to the main break trailing the Panthers by three goals. However, a five goal third quarter and three goal last eclipsed the away side’s two majors for the half, and saw that the Blues sailed away with a 22-point victory.

Jack Watts, Hugh Vickers-Willis, and Sean Carr all stood out through the middle for the Blues, while Marshall Rippon’s three majors were pivotal in the win. The panthers are not to be condemned after this loss, with their half game ascendancy over the Blue’s indicating positive aspects within their brand of football. Although an inability to capitalise on good start will be disappointing for Carey. As for many this was considered a grand final preview, Uni Blues still have to be considered firm favourites, but Carey have proved they are no easy-beats.

Old Melburnians comfortably defeated Old Haileybury at Princes Park. OM’s moved to the front of the three way race for fourth spot and all but sealed Old Haileybury’s relegation fate. A six goal to three opening term tipped the scales in the Dark Blue’s favour early, and they would 4

stay that way for the reminder of the game.

Melburnians won every quarter of football, acquiring more contested footy and moving far more freely around the ground than their hosts.

Cam Beck kicked a career best five majors, and quality contributions from Sam Playfair, Nick Voyage and Jeremy Beaumont culminated in a 45 point win for Melburnians, one they were hardly challenged for. Unfortunately, sitting three games behind Caulfield with only three left to play, Old Haileybury look destined for demotion. Even if they win all of their remaining fixtures, they must rely on Caulfield losing all their matches to avoid the bottom two.

Mazenod continued their winning streak with a hard fought win against a brave Caulfield Grammarians. The contest was even, with Caulfield leading by four points at the first break and 1 at half time, before they were tied at 47 all at the completion of the premiership quarter.

Mazenod barraged the ‘Fields defence thereafter; nearly doubling their goal count with six majors, while holding Caulfield goalless to prevail easily.

Dean Kelly led the goal kicking, dobbing four for the victors. Performances from Liam Welsford, and Josh Cowan, who also managed three and two goals each, alongside Robert Mann who was ubiquitous around the ground, underscored the important away victory.

AJAX notched up an important win against an consistent and challenging Old Ivanhoe outfit. An even three quarters saw Old Ivanhoe lead at the final interval as they were perched for a potentially devastating upset win. However the Jackas had the legs in the final stanza, adding six goals to one to come out 30-point victors. Josh Ludski and Warren Steinberg were outstanding in their efforts to lift the side throughout the match, wining plenty of ball.

defence, while veteran Ari Lewski was a pivotal play-making link in many forward efforts.

St Kevins outperformed Fitzroy at Brunswick Street to stay in third place. At the same time SKOBs dashed any hopes Fitzroy had of playing finals footy. SKOBs dictated proceedings all day, wining every quarter and were looking the better side in every aspect. Steve Salopek starred with lots of the football and a classy goal, as did Zach Ginnies. Anthony Lynch contributed three majors alongside Nick Wood and Matt Murphy who provided valuable input for SKOB. Fitzroy now sit two games behind the three sides locked in the race for fourth, and need to re-learn calculus in order to secure a supremely unlikely finals berth.

This week sees Old Carey take on AJAX in a game of huge importanancet for both sides. The Panthers

need to win to remain clear of SKOB and get back to winning touch, while a Jackas loss could see them lose touch with the top four competitors.

Old Ivanhoe take on Fitzroy in a contest the Roys need to win to keep any chance, however slim, of finals footy alive. Old Melburnians can hone in on fourth spot with a win over Caulfield, who will ensure they avoid relegation with a win on Saturday. Mazenod too can improve their top four chances with a win over Old Haileybury, who will see their chances of retaining a Premier B start in 2015 evaporate with a loss. Lastly, St Kevins take on Uni Blues at home, a barometer of both sides form going into finals, that has the potential to go either way, especially if SKOB bring their best game.

UN-BEAR-ABLE TO WATCH The Banyule faithful have every reason to feel hard done by after their side led for the best part of two hours in its clash against third-placed Hampton Rovers, before going down in the final minute by one point. The loss has all but sealed Banyule’s fate in 2014, whilst the win has given the Rovers hope of securing a double chance. A Banyule snap from the stoppage handed them a five point lead with two minutes left on the clock. However the ensuing bounce saw the Rovers surge the ball forward, and through relentless forward pressure the Bears defence wilted, a Josh Verlin soccer off the ground was enough to see the Rovers home.

Confronting 9th place in round fifteen always ensures you are in for a tough day at the office. One team is hanging on for grim death, the other is in pursuit of playing finals football. Upsets do happen when teams are trying to fight their way out of relegation. For the first 10 minutes of the clash between Ormond and Peninsula, an upset was on the cards. The Monders booted three unanswered goals leaving the Pirates scratching their heads.

But this only ignited the Pirates. Their midfield brigade lifted their work rate and the back-six, led by Brett Brisbane began to provide drive from defence. The Pirates had created an eight goal lead by the final change. As tempers flared in the final term the Pirates took control of the game. Late goals to Grigg, Fletcher and Scarpella (4) extended the margin to 77 points. For Ormond, Simon and Upstill could hold their heads high.

The Vultures are another step closer to playing finals football, after seizing fourth spot with an imposing 55 point win over Old Camberwell.

Going from the smaller confines of Gerry Green to a larger ground such as Gordon Barnard Oval can often be a difficult assignment. However the Vultures took to their task with relative ease.

Precision passing and relentless tacking pressure paved way for a commanding 23 point half time lead. Fearing an onslaught, the Wellers lifted their intensity in the third term with Clarke and Bennett getting on top in the clearances, alongside Rogers (3) who was lively up forward. However their hopes 6

of a comeback were quelled as the Vultures put the game beyond doubt with five final quarter goals. In the final term it was Dillon and Platt in the midfield who broke the Wellers resistance, each snaring three goals for the afternoon. The win was highlighted by three goals to debutant Dylan Glascott, and the Vultures’ eight multiple goal kickers.

PEGS’ inability to play four quarters of football has cost it dearly in their 29 point loss to Monash Blues.

PEGS were able to match it with their rivals in the first and third terms, but failed to fire a shot in the last quarter when the game was in the balance.

With scores level at 53 all PEGS would’ve been hoping for a fairytale final quarter, which they have been known to produce this year. However Monash’s rock solid defence were unwavering, refusing to concede a single point. Forrest was the dominant key forward on the ground for the Bombers with three goals. But it was Monash’s even spread of goal kickers that again proved the difference as it has often done this year, sharing the load between ten different players. Livori played his finest game of the year for PEGS. Meanwhile for the Blues Meade and Griffiths were standouts.

Having fallen to sixth place, the Bombers will need to produce an impressive final three weeks if they are to secure a top four finish.

To say Banyule didn’t deserve to win is an understatement. You have to feel for the Bears after they led up until the dying minutes of Saturday’s clash with the Hampton Rovers. And you can bet that Marcellin and Monash would’ve been praying for a Bears victory. The Bears held their opponents at bay for three quarters, and almost pulled off one of the upsets of the season. Unfortunately for the Bears, as time ticked past the 25 minute mark, deep into the final term, they conceded a goal. A Josh Verlin soccer handed the Rovers a one point win. Barclay and Hay were outstanding for Banyule coupled with the starring role of McDonald up PREMIER C — TIPS IN BOLD (YEARS TOTAL 51/68%) Hampton Rovers v Monash Blues Parkdale Vultures v Ormond Marcellin v PEGS Peninsula v Old Camberwell Oakleigh v Banyule

forward who booted four. Each time the Rovers looked dead and buried it was Lovig and McNeil who they turned to. The Rovers three quarter time deficit of 12 points was reduced on the back of increased output from Care and Turner who each finished with three pivotal goals. A gallant effort from Banyule but one that won’t be enough to see them remain in Premier C next season.

Oakleigh’s recent goal kicking woes came back to haunt them on Saturday as they fell 11 points short of ladder leaders Marcellin. It was the Eagles who made a fast start, capitalising on an Oakleigh lapse in concentration, racing to a 29 point half time lead. Inaccuracy was costing the Krushers, while their opposition appeared to pierce the big sticks with relative ease. Bolger added another three to his tally of 41 majors for the year, while Carlson and Bortolotto (2) amassed plenty of the ball in the midfield. The Krushers were able to bridge the gap to 22 points by the final change, after Hogan and Murray produced stellar third terms. Onlookers were given a front row seat to the Austin Deneys

PREMIER C

Back at the familiar surrounds of Boss James, The Rovers assume 2nd spot if they account for the Blues. The Vultures are taking flight at the right time of year, win number three in three weeks will see them tighten their grip on 4th spot. A poor travelling side this year, PEGS will need to produce one of their finest performances of the season if they are any chance to defeat the Eagles. Similarly Peninsula and Oakleigh both need to win to keep their finals prospects alive, but can Old Camberwell and Banyule bring their 2014 campaigns unstuck?

There is a lot at stake this weekend, four teams have their eyes set on fourth position. Which teams will buckle? And which teams will make a big play?

THOUGHTS GO OUT… Our thoughts are with the Prahran Assumption Football Club and the Dean Family whose son Ash was involved in a car accident last Saturday. Ash is currently in the Royal Melbourne Hospital. We wish Ash all the best with his recovery.

BULLEEN TEMPLESTOWE CELEBRATE Three weeks ago, Bulleen Templestowe AFC hosted their 40th anniversary ball held at The Centre Ivanhoe. More than 200 attended a gala evening to celebrate the club’s amazing history. The Club’s record in the VAFA in the 1970s & 80s in particular is quite remarkable. The club was formed out of the Bulleen Templestowe Youth Club who entered teams in local under age football competitions and was administered by that club until the senior committee was formed in 1976. After entering a senior team in 1975 the club made progress each year to climb all the way to A Section for the 1984 season. Along the way the club claimed three premierships before they lost the 1984 A Section preliminary final. They climbed six sections in 10 seasons! The Bullants spent four years in A Section before a gradual descent over the years to Division 1 where they now sit. To celebrate the night the club named a team of the decade for most recent 10 year period and the club also produced a quite attractive booklet covering the first forty years.

From everyone at the VAFA, congratulations on 40 great years, let’s hope there are another great 40 to come!

BUILDING A ROOF FOR VAFA GROUNDS? After last week’s debate at AFL level about leaving the roof open for the Melbourne v Brisbane Lions match at Etihad Stadium and how the poor players suffered looking into the sun, we wondered when VAFA clubs will be looking to build a roof over their grounds. There are many VAFA grounds that run on the same North-South axis as Etihad Stadium does so we thought we would raise the possibility of any of them ever getting a roof installed overhead. Just some that we can think could do with a roof are: Bennettswood Sports Ground (Emmaus St Leos) Elsternwick Park Oval 1 and 2 (Home of VAFA HQ/Elsternwick AFC) Glenhuntly Oval (Caulfield Grammarians) Harry Trott (Collegians) Junction Oval (Old Melburnians) Princes Park (Old Haileybury) Toorak Park (Old Xaverians/Prahran Assumption) Of course there are many more but of these, you would imagine Collegians are closest to installing a roof after their much hyped installation of lights at Harry Trott. Given it took Collegians six years to get their lights up, any takers on how long it will be before they get a roof over Harry Trott?

Congratulations to Emmaus St Leos’ PAUL MCGLOIN – Paul arrived at the club with his twin brother Rob in 2000 to form the ‘Twin Bobcats’, confusing opposition coaches who thought they were seeing double as they roved all over the ground, with their courageous team play. Paul is a great on field leader and a hard at the ball centre man, who likes kicking a few goals and is a popular clubman at the Animal Cage

Congratulations to Kew’s NICK TINETTI – Nick joined Kew from the Old Xaverians in 1999 and quickly made an impact with his leadership and silky smooth skills. In addition to his contribution to the Kew FC committee, Nick has gone on to be Kew’s longest serving Senior captain, is a Reserves Best and Fairest winner and more recently, Life Member. Respected by all and a class act on and off the field, congratulations to Nick on this major milestone.

Congratulations to St Bernard’s BRENTON GARTH. A St Bernards Junior, ‘George’ played in two MEGT U19 Premiership sides (‘02/’03). In 2004, George won the U19 B&F and made his Senior debut, before playing in the clubs last Premier finals campaign. In 10 years of taking on the VAFA’s best, George’s fearless approach has resulted in a few injuries, so it’s great to see him chalk up the 200.

All at ‘the snakepit’ salute a great clubman.

200

Congratulations to Ivanhoe’s JOE MAZOCCA – Joe has been an outstanding contributor (on and off the field) over the years and has gained a cult following during that time. Well known for his on-field banter, red boots and end of season stories, Joe is admired and well respected by all at the IAFC. Joe has been a resolute defender for much of his playing career and is affectionately known as the ‘iron fist’ in acknowledgement of his no nonsense approach to clearing the ball from many an opponent over the years.

150

Congratulations to Old Geelong’s COLBY O’BRIEN – Arriving in 2004, Colby played in a Seniors premiership within his first two years and has since become one of the best players the club has seen. Blessed with an uncanny knack to find his way through traffic, Colby has become a great ball-winner and has won two club best-and-fairest awards.

150

Congratulations to Old Mentonians’ KYM REGAN – Since joining the Club in 2002, Kym has been a fantastic contributor to the Panther cause. Kym is one of the few players to have represented the OMFC in the Seniors, Reserves, Thirds and Under 19s, and has coached the Thirds. A long term member of the committee, Kym was the Panthers’ Best Club Member in 2013. Well done Kym, now that the knee has been repaired we look forward to your 200th.

Congratulations to Swinburne Uni’s NICK MAURAN – Nick has the unenviable task of playing on the opposition’s best forward every week, a challenge he looks forward to and handles with aplomb. His steely determination and physical attributes allow Nick to play on the quick smalls or the big key forwards. He thrives in the contest and always wants to be pitted and challenged by the best.

BULLANTS’ RELEGATION ESCAPE? Bulleen Templestowe’s rise from the almost clutches of relegation is no longer a false hope as they closed the gap between themselves and eighth placed Whitefriars to just two points. Following a memorable win over rival Prahran Assumption, Bulleen Temp will need to reproduce that tenacity as their run home consists of three finals aspirants in need of victory as dearly as themselves. Elsewhere, Old Mentonians defeated Old Geelong to square up the race for fourth place. The OG’s remain favourites to take the remaining finals spot with a slightly easier draw, however the Panthers form is currently far superior.

After a slow start in the first quarter, Bulleen Templestowe returned with a vengeance in the second. Down by 15 at the first change of ends, they piled on five goals to earn a 12-point advantage at the major break. The Bullants kept the pressure on the visitors in the third and managed to hold on to a steely four point win in the last. Despite Tim Rogers’ bag of five, Prahran Assumption were unable to turn the tide and whisk away the four points. Anthony Lucisano was best on ground in Bulleen Templestowe’s second victory on the trot. The Bullants have doubled their win tally for the year in the past fortnight.

In an eight-point game, Old Mentonians thrived in the must-win scenario, as they defeated fellow fourth spot hopeful Old Geelong. Throughout the day both sides gave away opportunities, and the Panthers capitalised on this more so than the OG’s. OMFC controlled the majority of the matchup but seemingly let it slip late in quarters. Their hardy tackling and intensity was there, despite this Old Geelong would kick their way back into the game and almost stole the four points because of it. The Panthers’ seven point lead at three quarter time soon blew out beyond four goals as they dominated the first 20 minutes. But as it ticked into time-on, the OG’s mounted another comeback kicking three quick goals and were roaring home. Unfortunately for the home crowd the siren silenced the fight back 16

as Old Mentonians won by four points. Elliot Macquire was best on across half back for the visitors.

NOBS/St Pat’s survived a monumental scare as Whitefriars threw the book at the finals-destined NOBs, leaving it until the last 10 minutes to flick the switch and race home to victory. NOBSPC started poorly while the Friars played out of their skin, kicking five majors to two in the first term. Whitefriars embarrassed NOBs in the first half, keeping them to just three goals mostly due to sublime pressure and better spread going forward. The NOBs’ experienced heads slowly awoke in the third, as the visitors closed the margin to 16-points, however NOBs were still lacking the game-winning firepower. Whitefriars continued to flounder opportunities thus leaving the door ajar; NOBSPC returned to their best with a goal-spree that came from nowhere.

At the blink of the eye NOB/St Pat’s drove five goals past the Friars and secured a 25-point victory. Damon Byrne was one of the few four quarter contributors for the NOBs, and played a significant part in the match-defining fourth term burst to earn best on ground honours.

In the game between Williamstown CYMs (2nd) and MHSOB (10th), both teams had secured their fate long ago and seemingly had little to play for. Nonetheless the CY’s still handled the lowly Unicorns convincingly. The end result was as comfortable as could be expected, Williamstown had lavishly notched up 10 goals by half time. It didn’t stop there as the CY’s doubled that and some by game’s end. MHSOB struggled as most have this season against Williamstown, the CY’s showed no mercy against a side that has tallied just one win for the year. Nicholas Ebinger and Jack Gray had a field day with four goals apiece DIVISION 1 — TIPS IN BOLD (YEARS TOTAL 60/80%) Yarra Valley v Williamstown CYMS Whitefriars v Old Geelong MHSOB v NOBS/St Pats Prahran Assumption v Therry Penola Old Mentonians v Bulleen Templestowe

goal flattered Yarra Valley with the final 63-point margin.

Therry Penola had no trouble edging past their Grand Final competitor of last year in Yarra Valley to win their 15th game in a row in Division 1.

Yarra Valley’s defensive mindset to play a man or two behind the ball was fruitless. Aside slowing down the play, the Bushrangers were unable to stem control the Lions exerted on the day.

It took Therry a quarter to adjust, but by the second term they were able to slice through the extra defenders and find their targets. Jarrod Bannister was the only multiple goal scorer for the Lions with three, while Joel Costello was best afield in a game where Therry’s inaccuracy at

This week, Williamstown CYMS travel to Yarra Valley, predicting the CY’s to return home with the four points. Whitefriars host Old Geelong, if the OG’s are to make finals they must win this weekend. MHSOB plays NOBS/St Pats, expect the Nobs to win easily. Prahran Assumption faces Therry Penola who will make it 16 wins in a row.

Old Mentonians verse Bulleen Templestowe, the Panthers to keep momentum and be victorious.

BEARS IN HIBERNATION It took 15 rounds but we finally had our first draw.

Traditional rivals Kew and Ivanhoe were locked in a dogfight all-day, until a flying shot at goal in the dying seconds by the Bears missed and thus evened the scores. It spelt heartbreak for Ivanhoe, as they were the better side for most of the day and victory would have kept their faint finals hopes alive. For Kew, it was a “get out of jail free card”, as their patchy late season form was nearly their undoing once again. The overnight deluge reduced most of Ivanhoe Park into a bog heap and made goals hard to come by, with a total of 16 kicked for the day. With goals a premium, Lovell for Ivanhoe bagged four and earned best afield honours, but unfortunately it was to no avail. The Hoes had the running early, they were lower and harder at the ball than the Bears and held a valuable nine point lead at half-time. The third however belonged to the Bears, as they welcomed back CHF Tim Allman and he delivered, bagging two majors for the quarter. The game opened up in the last as the ball zipped from end to end, but both sides lacked polish in front of goal. Ivanhoe came seconds away from recording a meritorious victory but had to settle on sharing the points. Finals now seem a bridge too far, but the year has by no means been a waste. They will head to South Melbourne this week as favourites and should record their eight win of the year.

For Kew, they host Glen Eira, in what should be viewed as a chance to regain some much needed consistency of performance.

After a heartbreaking loss to Old Eltham a week prior, the Raiders went to Elsternwick Park keen to rebound, and they did so in fine style. With percentage all important this time of year, their 75 point win over the Wicks has all but sealed a finals berth. They sit in fourth place, two games clear of St Johns, and a victory over the JOCs this week will set it in stone. The win is even more impressive given the overnight conditions, and this week Dave Boundy took a back seat up forward as 18

Kandilakis bagged five. For Elsternwick, the loss sees them a mere 5% clear of relegation and will need a win in the last three weeks to avoid the bottom two. Old Paradians face a stern test this week as they host a St Johns side still clinging to a slim finals hope. For Elsternwick, their fate is in their own hands as they take on Monash in a door-die encounter.

Old Eltham threw the theories about heavy grounds reducing teams’ ability to score out the window as they handed South Melbourne a 134 point hiding. It was a precession from the get-go, as the Turtles did as they pleased in an eight goal to two opening quarter. By half-time the match was over, the Districts were 11 goals in arrears.

The Turtles had an astonishing 14 goal-kickers, Zanter the hero with eight. After a slump in form mid-year, Old Eltham has well and truly bounced back, and is now a genuine premiership threat.

South Melbourne will be extremely disappointed with their effort, but were just simply a class below their top-four opponent. The Turtles face their sternest test of the year, as they head to Ferndale Park to face the form side of Division 2.

A win sees them take St Mary’s Salesian’s second spot. South Melbourne is clear of relegation but will want to bounce back this week against an inform Ivanhoe.

Monash Gryphons kept their hopes of narrowly avoiding relegation for the second straight year alive with a gutsy win over a luckless Glen Eira.

The Gryphons scraped home by 13 points and now are a mere 5% off this week’s opponent Elsternwick in what is a must win for both sides.

cannot be questioned but they simply lacked the class when needed, and are still anchored to the bottom of the ladder. Inaccuracy in front of goal in the last quarter is to blame for their loss this week, as they just couldn’t land that killer blow. Monash had the better of the first half and did enough in the second to secure victory.

St Johns went into their clash with St Mary’s Salesian knowing that nothing short of a win would suffice if they were to keep their finals dream alive. Their effort and intensity from the opening bounce reflected just that. St Mary’s were made to earn every bit of their 24 point win, in what was a perfect lead-up with finals on the horizon. The intensity and pressure around the ball from both sides was first class, but

unfortunately for the JOCs, turnovers proved very costly. Countless times throughout the day, St Johns gave the ball back to St Mary’s via basic skill errors...and in the end that proved the difference. They were valiantly led by key-forward Adam Jones in a five goal last quarter, that saw them hit the front briefly, but they couldn’t hold on. St Marys’ class and superior structures saw them arrest back the lead and march on to a hard fought 24 point win. The JOCs still hold hopes of a finals berth and face an uphill battle against Old Paradians. St Mary’s take on a rampaging Old Eltham, who will be keen to enhance its premiership credentials.

DIVISION 3

STILL NO CAKEWALK There is only three rounds left and every team in Division 3 still has something left to play for.

The battle for first place on the ladder and an undisputed double chance fired up last weekend when the Northern Blues defeated Emmaus St Leos, placing both sides on equal points with eleven wins. Aquinas and Swinburne are fighting for home ground advantage in their own mini-tiff on ten wins each. The well-documented middle of the ladder is as tight as ever, with four teams still vying for the final two places in the finals.

At the other end of the spectrum teams battle for a combination of hope, avoiding relegation and respect as the regular season draws to its inevitable close.

REVIEW In a match-up that could be re-lived in the first week of finals, Aquinas kept Swinburne University scoreless in the first half to take a 33-point victory and third position on the ladder at Aquinas College. Poor conditions at the Blood’s home ground created a low scoring clash – only nine goals for the contest - as the turf struggles to cope with rigors of continuous football and rain. Michael Niezen was at his brilliant best yet again for Aquinas while Joldy Bradley was dominant in the air for Swinburne who now slide down into fourth position.

The Northern Blues officially proved their mettle by recovering from a 20-point half time deficit to defeat the first-placed Emmaus St Leos by 25-points at Bennettswood Sports Ground.

The loss ends an eleven game winning streak spanning back to May 3rd for Emmaus. The Animals and the Blues are now on equal points in first and second on the ladder respectively.

Division 3 leading goal-kicker Chris Beluszar kicked seven in the clash while James King, Damon Marcon and Jay Phelan combined for 13 for Northern.

A nine goal to two second half from UHS-VU propelled them to a 51-point win over the Eley Park Sharks and kept them in touch with the top 20

six. The first half was a scrappy affair, with both sides managing just three goals apiece. Eley Park’s Grant Deacon looked most likely to break the stalemate with dominant play up forward, however it was the Vulture’s Rhys Kirk (five goals) who put the score on the board at the other end.

The Sharks now face a tough fight to jump ahead of La Trobe in the final three rounds and remain in Division 3 in 2015.

In the fight between the yellow and black sashes, Richmond Central made use of a relentless first half to easily account for South Mornington to the tune of 159-points at Citation Oval. Despite their comfortable defeat, the Tiger’s did show courage by kicking three goals to match the three from the Snakes in the final term. Sam Demeo and Woody Bucci joined forces to kick 10 majors for the Snakes while Nathan Coy found himself in the best players for the eighth time this season for South Mornington. Richmond is now ahead of Albert Park in fifth position following the win.

In the upset of the round, seven goals from La Trobe’s Jack McMeel were enough to give them a shock 26-point win over Albert Park at La Trobe University. The result ends a seven-game winning streak for the Falcons who struggled up forward without focal point Stuart Maunder in the clash.

The win gives La Trobe a one game buffer over Eley Park in the relegation zone while the Falcons are now on equal points with three other sides all battling for the final two places in the finals.

The final match of Round 15 was crucial for both sides, as Power House moved a game clear of St Francis Xavier in a spirited 59-point win at Ross Gregory Oval. Power House burst from the blocks, fired up in the contest, kicking ten goals to one in the first half to put the result beyond doubt by the major break. Ant Voyage’s men spread their goal-kickers evenly with nine contributors for the day to help their cause. St Francis will now need to win all of their last three DIVISION 3 — TIPS IN BOLD (YEARS TOTAL 61/68%) Northern Blues v South Mornington St Francis Xavier v Swinburne University Power House v Eley Park Sharks Albert Park v Aquinas Richmond Central v UHS-VU La Trobe University v Emmaus St Leos

matches if they hope to play finals in 2014.

The Sharks conceded six goals in the second term that allowed Albert Park to take a 35-point lead at half time. Stuart Maunder continued his brilliant form in front of goal with five majors, while James Brick was superb for the Falcons. For the home side, Noel Bahnsen enjoyed a return to form with four majors alongside David Viola and Kenneth Darby who toiled hard all afternoon.

The Sharks are tied on La Trobe for points; however they remain inside the relegation zone with a lower percentage.

PREVIEW Richmond Central v UHS-VU: If the Snakes can register their third win in a row it will complete a month of good football and cast fear into the other Division 3 finalists. La Trobe University v Emmaus St Leos: The Animal’s first loss in almost three

DIVISION 3

Power House v Eley Park Sharks: Eley Park have been competitive all year but struggle to put a winning score on the board, Power House by three goals. St Francis Xavier v Swinburne University: A loss for the X-men will all but secure an early football trip. They’ll need to be at their best to defeat the Razorbacks. Northern Blues v South Mornington: A percentage-boosting win for the Blues can edge them closer to Emmaus in percentage and a guaranteed double chance.

DIVISION 4

@HandsomeHammyG

MANNINGHAM SHUT TOP FOUR DOOR Whilst the rest of the Commonwealth mulls over the inspirational gold medal performance of the Hockeyroos and Genevieve LaCaze’s ‘stage-bomb’ in Glasgow, the water-cooler talk for Division 4 fans this week will no doubt have centred around Manningham’s triumph over their namesakes. Sustained effort and hard work from North Brunswick in recent weeks finally paid off as they enjoyed a rare 2014 win. Meanwhile at Rathmines, the Hawks left Westbourne Grammarian’s season hanging by a thread as they comfortably accounted for the rebirthed club. These results opened up a gorge between the top four sides and the followers, whilst providing an exciting taste of things to come when the finals roll around.

After several cases of ‘close but no cigar’, the Bulls blitzed Box Hill North to register a well-deserved third win for the season. Despite having to call upon several reserves players, the home side put in a dominant four-quarter display. The Bulls were spearheaded by Robbie ‘Stalker’ Santacroce who was involved in everything and finished with five majors. Across the ground Campbell HynamSmith and Scott Rymer were productive as North Brunswick increased their lead at every change.

Michael Tilley and Sean Donovan were gallant in defeat, whilst Toby Manning collected four goals for Box Hill North. The result has spirits high in the North of Brunswick and all but ends Box Hill North’s slim hopes of playing finals football.

The battle of the Cobras was a venomous encounter that has virtually sewn up the top four and the order in which they’ll finish. An explosive first half from Canterbury was countered by one of the best quarters of the season from any Division 4 side. Manningham produced an incredible eight goals to one performance in the third to steal the lead. Despite the win, inaccurate kicking nearly cost Manningham in the last quarter – something they will be looking to 22

address in the lead up to September. Thomas Bell continued his stellar season for Manningham.

Solid form from him and Stuart Fisher was the platform from which Michael Muller was able to collect five goals. Brett Johnson, Tom Eckersley and Rohan Walmsley were the most effective for Canterbury, all of them multiple goal kickers. The result of this match lengthens the abyss between the top four and the rest. Barring an absolute meltdown, it would be fair to assume that the current standings in the top four will sustain until the finals begin.

The Dragons put the sword to the Synners at Keeley Park. Despite offering stiff competition for the first half, Chadstone were unable to match the relentless intensity of their opponents.

The Dragons will be pleased with a dominant performance that saw them share the workload.

Four targets up front collected three or more goals – Pasquale Torcasio the best of them with four. The Dragons will hope to ride the momentum from this result as they hunt for another 2014 win. Chadstone however, will have their work cut out for them when they meet the in-form North Brunswick later this afternoon.

The Hawks kept their immaculate season in tact with an unremitting seventy-eight point drubbing of Westbourne Grammarians. The usual suspects Sam Gold, Jason Ince and Sean Stormonth were uncontainable inside the forward fifty. They were well assisted with regular quality service from Paul Nunan and Davids Pritchard and Kennedy through the middle. Chris Sneddon and Adam Imber were admirable in defeat, however the difference in class between DIVISION 4 — TIPS IN BOLD (YEARS TOTAL 64/85%) Canterbury v Hawthorn Box Hill North v West Brunswick Chadstone v North Brunswick Manningham Cobras v Point Cook Westbourne Gr. v Dragons

the two sides was apparent throughout the afternoon. Grammarians will now need to win all of their remaining games well, and hope that Manningham hit the self-destruct button to stand a chance of squeezing in to the four.

The Bulldogs produced a gallant effort at the pristine Saltwater Reserve as they went down to West Brunswick. The Pies set the game up for themselves with a dominant second term. The second half was a matter of going through the motions, and given the state of affairs towards the top of the ladder, West Brunswick seemed happy to oblige. Evan Lloyd was outstanding in his ninety-ninth game for the Magpies, whilst Anthony Gibson and Adam Ross enjoyed the extra space on the wings. Dylan Walker was a tower of strength with a five-goal haul. Robbie

DIVISION 4

Canterbury will be looking to bounce back quickly after their narrow loss, but they face the ultimate test when they host Hawthorn this afternoon. West Brunswick will be looking to stamp some authority on the competition against a side who are now only playing for pride.

North Brunswick have a golden opportunity to earn back to back wins. Manningham will be hard to stop off the back of last week’s brilliant result and Westbourne Grammarians will be desperate to stay in the race. Whilst things appear settled up the top towards the pointy end, as we all know, things can change very quickly in footy‌

CLUB WAREHOUSE RISING STAR 2014 TIM MARSHALL – OLD MELBURNIANS Congratulations to Timothy Marshall who has been nominated as this week’s Club Warehouse Rising Star.

Timothy joined his brother at Old Melburnians this year for his first year of football since leaving Melbourne Grammar. Timothy’s promotion to the senior team is highlighted by the fact he arrived half way through pre-season after returning from a gap year travelling. After missing a complete season, Timothy set him self the goal of returning to peak fitness and utilising his pace to impress the coaching staff. During the practice matches earlier in the year, it was not only his blistering pace that stood out, but, his ability to read the play and exceptional skills which caught the eye of senior coaches. Since his first senior game, he has been a coaches dream; reliable, competitive, does not fear anyone, as defensive as he is attacking, and eager to learn. Timothy also has the attributes to excite the supporters, tucking the ball under his arm and when he’s off like the Road Runner, no-one can catch him.

Timothy is rarely seen around the club without his cheeky smile and cheeky attitude.

THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2014

* 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.

RETROSPECTIVE

Geoff Reilley

@GeoffreyReilley

5 YEARS AGO – 2009 In A Section, Uni Blues went down to SBMT in a crucial game for the Blues. They remained in fourth spot but were now vying with Collegians and Old Scotch; the other three, Xavs, De La and The Tigers were pretty safe. The Blues led at half time 6.7 to 3.4 but the Tigers were fantastic in the third quarter kicking 8.3 to 1.1. The Tigers went on with it in the last to win easily 17.12 to 12.11. Best: Anstey, Collins, Curcio, Hellier, Phibbs, Bliesner (SBMT) and Nicholson, McConnell, Paterson, Lewis, Austin, Weddell (Blues).

Vinnie Vescovi officiated in his 400th game as an umpire. Now in the goals after starting as a boundary runner, Vinnie was a field ump for 8 years before settling for the flags on Saturdays.

10 YEARS AGO – 2004 The two top teams in D1 Section met at Banyule and the home side was looking to take the 4 points and maintain their second place. The ladder leaders, Uni Blacks, were not about to upset their unbeaten record for the season and commenced in fine fashion to take the lead at quarter time by 3 goals. Banyule threw everything at the Blacks, however whilst the Blacks didn’t have it all their own way in the second half, they proved to be too strong, winning comfortably in the conditions, 10.6 to 6.10. Best: Moffatt, M Kempton, Middleton, Savige (4) (UB) and Cantwell, Lorenzini (4), Wilmore, N Taylor (Ban).

20 YEARS AGO – 1994 The talented St Kevins Old Boys’ team in D Grade were outright favourites and although winning out at Williamstown, were made to earn it in their 16.12 to 9.20 win. Sheedy, Mulcahy and Terzini were best for SKOBS and Griffiths, Featherston and Harry for Williamstown.

In E Grade the match of the day was St Mary’s v Glenhuntly but the ‘Hunters’ made light work of it (20.18 to 9.15) as Thomas, Halpin, Rafferty and Miller (5) stood out for the winners, Stewart, Stone and Ymer gave their all for the Saints.

30 YEARS AGO – 1984 There were a number of ‘double centurians’ in this round – Greg (Les) Horton for Old Camberwell, Peter Ferguson at Fawkner, Kelvin ‘Lizard’ Leiper 42

achieved the milestone at Thomastown and Fawkner produced a second player to play 200 in Jeff Stewart.

40 YEARS AGO – 1974 In Junior Section 2, Parkside (1st) and Geelong (4th) had a terrific battle. After Parkside opened up an early lead, the boys from Corio came right back to lead by 67 points at half time. The second half produced some thrilling football but in the end, the ‘Red Devils’ hung on by 5 points at the final siren.

Best: Skalitisis, Simpson (3), Tanner and Bourke (Park); Barrow, Friend, Silver and Leeds (3) (Geel).

50 YEARS AGO – 1964 It was becoming a habit in A Grade as once again, four of the top five teams were defeated and as a result, Collegians replaced MHSOB in the top four.

There was only one Junior section and the leading teams were MHSOB 56, Old Scotch 52, University 48, Ivanhoe 44, Alphington 44 and Hampton Scouts 40.

60 YEARS AGO – 1954 Parkside remained undefeated in C Section and showed their superiority with a resounding win over Elsternwick (3rd) 18.16 to 3.15. Balwyn made sure of 3rd spot with a good win over Malvern (5th) 9.14 to 8.9.

A Hawthorn player was reported for abusing and striking an umpire! Guilty of the first charge, he was given 6 weeks for the abuse, fortunately for the player he was found not guilty of striking the ump! Imagine what he would have copped given the 6 weeks for abuse!

80 YEARS AGO – 1934 A former Old Scotch Collegian, Cr. Baron Marks, presented a gold medal, suitably inscribed, to the mercurial Bill Pearson, the Old Scotch champion, for kicking 30 goals in the previous round (yes, 30 majors) against Brunswick in A Section! Pearson was an outstanding all-round sportsman who also kicked 24 against Uni Blacks! His record in amateur football was remarkable. He won the A Section goal-kicking in five of six seasons from 1932 to 1937 and in those five seasons he kicked 126, 220, 138, 121 and 155. Needless to say, Old Scotch won four consecutive A Section flags in the early 1930s!

Bill was also an outstanding District cricketer with State honours.

St Bernards continued their rich vein of form with a 17 goal demolition of Old Scotch in Essendon. Five Bernards goals to the Cardinals none gave the Snowdogs a decent buffer and they were never headed from there. Vague kicked 4, and O’Halloran 3 and he was named best. Daggian kicked the only 2 goals for Old Scotch. Old Xaverians took on Old Melburnians for the fourth time this season and this large win for Xavs was much the same as the previous ones.

Jeremey Hannan was the catalyst with 11 goals in the 210 point rout. Silk got 4 of his own and

@jdonohoe12

classy ball user Luke Barry was outstanding with 3 goals. St Kevin’s hosted Beaumaris and a 5.2 to 2.5 first quarter to the home side was the start they were after. Doggett (3) and Massey, Lewin and Quinlan all with 2 were instrumental in the 103-55 win for the home side. Burke, Hudson and Kelly kicked 2 each but it wasn’t enough with Kelly and Ryan Beauy’s best. De La won their second game in a row against the depleted St Bedes/Mentone, with Howard kicking 3 and Vawser, McGaw, Martinez and Gava all kicking 2. Dumbelton and Halliday were outstanding for the home side. Hoy was a shining light for the Tigers in the loss though booting 3 goals.

U19 Section 2 Report

@LewisEmmerson Parkdale’s 55-point win over 21-point win over Collegians. Peter Rozanitis Caulfield Grammarians means kicked 3 for the Nodders. Collegians’ James Edward the Vultures are sitting in the Emmett among his side’s best. Uni Blues can four. Parkdale are flying home breathe a sigh of relief after their narrow 3-point and should be considered a win over Uni Blacks. A loss for the Blues would have real premiership contender compromised their standing within the four; in a as Kane Bode was a rock in defence for the desperate last quarter they were able to hold off Vultures. Whitefriars produced a commanding 72-point victory over Old Brighton, Ciaran Hickey a fast finishing Blacks. It was a shootout at either instrumental in his side’s victory. Brighton’s Jack end between Daniel Batarilo of Blues (4) and John Rutter kicked two thirds of his side’s goal tally, Vrodos of Blacks (5). Fitzroy’s slide continues with unfortunately, that amounted to only 2 goals. In their 76-point loss to top-placed Old Trinity. The a low-scoring affair, both sides were wayward loss sees the Roys drop to fifth position. Trinity’s in front of goal as Mazenod came away with a Alex Polidoros was prolific with 6 goals.

U19 Section 3 with Tom Connolly @tomconnolly15

The sun was shining on Saturday afternoon and all teams would have enjoyed playing in the dry conditions considering what had transpired in the preceding 12 hours. Old Xaverians played Old Camberwell and took the 4 points by two straight kicks in a tight affair. Old Xaverians led all day and were just too strong, as Bosner kicked 4 goals for the day. In what you could say was the game of the round, Marcellin played Williamstown CYMS and it was Marcellin away from home that won by 14 points 44

as Di Roberto for the Eagles kicked 4 goals and was best on ground. There was a late charge by the CY’s, but it was all left too late. In another tight clash, Old Carey took on St Mary’s Salesian and just won by 8 points, as Old Carey’s Nixon kicked 4 goals and Schipper kicked 3 and Curwood was best on ground for the Saints. It wasn’t enough for St Mary’s Salesian who were left agonisingly short of just their second win of the season. Old Ivanhoe ran over the top of the AJAX by 25 points.

AJAX led by 8 points at 3 quarter time but in the last quarter, Old Ivanhoe were just too strong and kicked 6 goals to 1 to win.

@annaod_

Monash Blues grabbed an easy 81 point win over MHSOB, Blues did not allow MHSOB to kick a goal until the final term.

Hogan kicked five of the 17 goals for Monash, and was one of their best along with teammates Brimacombe and Thomas, who worked well. Benoiton slotted eight goals for Oakleigh, contributing to an 80 point win over Beaumaris. The loss sees the Sharks sit a game outside the four. Oakleigh’s win has them equal top with Ormond, though the Krushers lead the way on percentage. De La Salle had a convincing win over Old Haileybury,

winning by 104 points. Old Haileybury struggled as they only managed three goals for the day. It was Lee who kicked six goals for the De La, in a win that has placed them comfortably inside the four. Hampton Rovers managed a 21-point victory over Peninsula, despite a late charge in the final quarter by the Pirates. Roberston and Daley were Hampton’s best for the day, as they made good contributions to help the team get the points.

Rovers sit in fourth, with Beaumaris not far behind.

Ormond had an enforced bye as Collegians forfeited their match. With three games to go, only Beauy can sneak in but they would require a slip up from Rovers.

UMPIRES

Steve McCarthy & Kit Harvey

50 SHADES OF MELBOURNE Melbourne’s weather transitioned rapidly from Friday to game day. Some of the city’s coldest temperatures in a decade were almost forgotten, as icy, wet and windy conditions morphed into footy perfection. The sun was out and undershirts returned to optional status for umpires. Veteran goal umpire Clayton Evans was even overheard asking fellow flag-waver, Premier A debutant Guy Hexter, if he’d brought a short-sleeved uniform. The new kid on the block replied that he hadn’t and Clayton had to put his deckchair and thongs back in the boot. It was finals weather in Round 13/14 and nobody was complaining. You know you’re doing alright if the beach seems like a borderline realistic option in early August.

Melbourne, don’t ever change.

BACK IN TOWN Last Saturday we saw the comeback game of one of our absolute legends. After nearly two years on the sidelines with a debilitating foot injury, Leah Gallagher donned the greens (for the first time) when she stepped out in an under 19 game at Old Trinity. The good news is that she pulled up well, (according to her match day coach, Daggles, however we’re not sure who’d be coaching who) so with a few more games under her belt followed by a big pre-season she’ll be ready to strut her stuff again in senior football in round 1 next year.

A BIG HONOUR FOR “DROPPY” Congratulations to Grant Wardrop who last week became the 107th Life Member of the VAFAUA. This achievement will be officially recognised at the Pre Finals Dinner on 25 August 2014 in the Members Dining Room at the MCG. AFL VISITOR Last week our group was fortunate to have a visit from former VAFA and now AFL-listed umpire Rob O’Gorman. Rob (#33 for those playing at home) spoke to the group outlining his pathway and journey from Moorabbin Saints Juniors to the VAFA, the VFL and now AFL. He showed that these 52

pathways which are in place can and do succeed if you persist and listen to your coaches. After his debut at AFL level earlier this year he joins an ever growing list of umpires at the elite level who have passed through or gained their start in our ranks. Last weekend Rob umpired the Melbourne v Brisbane game and we had great representation on the day with three other ex-VAFA umpires being on the field with Rob. 2011 AFL Grand Final umpire Chris Donlon was one of the other field umpires whilst Damian Cusack and Matthew Jenkinson were two of the boundary umpires. It can happen to you!!!

LAWS OF THE GAME QUIZ LAST WEEK’S QUESTION: Before the siren goes to start a match, the umpire notices the full forward from Team A being thrown to ground by Team B’s full back. What happens next?

The correct answer was OPTION C: the umpire blows their whistle, holds the ball up, waits for the siren and then awards a free kick to the Team A full forward, which is taken from where the incident occurred.

THIS WEEK’S QUESTION: A player from Team A is having a shot at goal.

A teammate goes through the mark, closely followed by a Team B player. What does the umpire do? a) The umpire pays a 25-metre penalty against Team B. b) The umpire pays a free kick against the Team A player for coming in to the protected area. c) The umpire blows time on and tells both players to clear the area and resets the mark .

CONSISTANCY THE KEY After last week’s disappointing loss to UHSVU (losing having led all day), University Blues were keen to avoid another replay of that performance against another quality side in Williamstown CYMS. Unfortunately history repeated for the Blues, after leading by 27 points at half time, they switched off in the second half as the CY’s showed dominance across all parts of the ground. A great come from behind victory for the CY’s with the finals door still ajar.

Old Paradians were simply no match for ladder leaders Mazenod, the 97 point defeat crushing to the Old Paradians. Kieran McKeogh was again impressive with another 3 goals, taking his tally to 55 for the year, whilst Andrew D’Souza was named best afield for the Paradians. Finals now out of the equation, Old Paradians must focus on finishing off the season well, whilst Mazenod must continue their good form to give it a good shot at the premiership. Westbourne Gr.’s impressive performance kept their opponents Point Cook to scoring only two points in the second half to claim a 46 point victory. The Warriors’ six goal to one opening quarter set them up nicely as Jay Amore kicked 3. The Bulldogs were never really in the match, with Cody Hobbins the standout in the defeat. Point Cook must now play consistent football for the remaining few games to keep hold on to fourth position from Williamstown CYMS who are just behind them on percentage. Top two side St Bernard’s, made life difficult for UHS-VU who

managed only two goals to their name by half time and a 40 point loss by game’s end. This victory to the Snowdogs sees them hold second spot on the ladder. Despite the loss, Matthew Mallia kicked goal, whilst Tim Rocke was best for UHS-VU. Michael Diamandis was impressive with three goals for the Snowdogs.

CROCS ROLL SPARTANS DOUBLE CHANCE SEAGULLS DRAGONS SIGN OFF WITH WIN REVIEW ROUND 15 SECTION 1 As predicted in this column, Old Xaverians inflicted Hawthorn’s first loss on Sportscover Arena when the Crocodiles finished nine points ahead.

Hawthorn started well and held a four point lead at half time before a six goal to one third quarter gave the Xaverians a 27 point advantage at the last change. Hawthorn fought back valiantly in the last, but were unable to bridge the gap. Best for the winners were: Andrew Jones, Tim O’Meara and Matt Omen (No 67). For Hawthorn, Stan Neohoritis, Anthony Marguccio and Anthony Demitriou were best. Prahran/Assumption had a day to forget when they journeyed to Mt Lilydale. The Two Blues goaled in the opening quarter, which proved to be their only major score of the match. Mt Lilydale, who had a confidence building victory by 80 points, were well served by the consistent Neil Trigwell with five goals. Old Geelong ended their disappointing season with a five point win over Masala after a very even contest.

SECTION 2 In an early match, fourth placed Therry Penola had the better of leaders, Emmaus/St Leo’s in the first quarter. However the Animals fought back and held a one point lead at the half way mark. With six goals to two in the third quarter, Emmaus/ St Leo’s took control to lead by 29 points at three quarter time. They maintained their ascendency in the last and led by 36 points at the final siren.

Williamstown CYMS were always in control of their early morning match against Eley Park. The Sharks, who were all at sea by the Bay, went down by 113 points as the CY’s clinched second place and the double chance in the finals. On Friday night at Victoria Park, Richmond Central kept Bulleen Templestowe scoreless for a half and confined the Bullants to a sole goal as the Snake’s cruised to victory by 96 points.

SECTION 3 With a winning margin of 92 points, NOBs/ St Patrick’s easily accounted for a disappointing MHSOB who struggled throughout on the big Gillon Oval. The best for the winners were; 58

Christopher Gatto, Hamish Christie and Thomas O’Halloran who kicked five goals. The consistent Tom Doer-Tolhurst was best for the losing Unicorns. Fourth placed, Kew proved no match for leaders, La Trobe University, who were in control throughout the match and ran out winners by 123 points. Twelve players shared the 21 La Trobe goals, to demonstrate their multi pronged attack.

Despite marked inaccuracy, Dragons were able to defeat UHS/ VU by eight points. The Dragons came home with newfound accuracy in the final quarter to snatch their third victory of the season. William Cheesman kicked five of the eight University High goals in a fine display.

SEMI FINALS PREVIEW SECTION 1 Hawthorn, the minor Premiers have defeated perennial Premiers Old Xaverians twice this season albeit twice on the small Rathmines Road, Reserve.

Last week on Sportscover Arena, Old Xaverians inflicted Hawthorn’s only loss for the season. So many factors will be in “play” in this game. The weather often gives teams kicking south an initial advantage. Will potential match winners, Nick Bye, Matthew Green and James McDonnell play this week? Xavs won without them last Saturday! The ground had not proven favourable to Hawthorn over the years until their Premiership victory in 2013 and certainly the Xaverians have enjoyed unparalled success there over a generation. The Xaverians justified my faith in them last week and I tip them to win again today. Mt Lilydale will start favourites to defeat Prahran/Assumption because of their two home victories during the season including the confidence building one last week.

In Round 12, The “Two Blues” won on the Righetti Oval and I suspect the Mt Lilydale players will be able to out run their opponents on Sportscover where the fitness of so many Two Blues players has been tested over the years. Many of those who have struggled will be playing today. Even though my observation of Mt Lilydale was of a big defeat, I am selecting them to win today.

SECTION 1 TIPS IN BOLD (YEARS TOTAL 41/91%) Hawthorn v Old Xaverians Mt Lilydale v Prahran Assumption

SECTION 2 Richmond Central has defeated Therry Penola twice this season as well as playing the only tie of 2014 against them in Round 13. On form this year, Richmond Central must be favoured to win again.

THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2014

Their defence has been the more impressive although over the 15 rounds there has not been a marked difference in points scored by each team.

Based on the form to date, I select Richmond Central. Surely the success story of 2014 (so far) has been that of Williamstown CYMS, a team considered unlikely to compete this season after early setbacks. They have finished second and will approach today’s major semi final knowing they hold a two to one winning advantage over the Animals including that in round 4 when the CY’s powered home to win by two points. Emmaus/St Leo’s won in Round 8 when their stars, Ben Walters, Mark Petryk and Robert Hughes were all on form.

In Round 13, Willy won by eight points to set the stage for today. I have memories of Emmaus/St Leo’s fading out of the 2013 finals with consecutive defeats. Could it happen again despite their galaxy of much travelled stars? I am taking the risk on the Animal’s fitness and select them to win.

SECTION 2 TIPS IN BOLD (YEARS TOTAL 30/67%) Richmond Central v Therry Penola Emmaus St Leos v Williamstown CYMS

SECTION 3 On Friday night MHSOB and Kew meet under lights on the wide wings of a fitness testing Sportscover Arena. The Unicorns have twice defeated Kew whose sole win was by seven points in Round 8. From the times I have watched each team, it has been apparent that neither can sustain pressure for the whole game. At their best, I favour Melbourne High to win narrowly although Kew could surprise. Two weeks ago, La Trobe University would have been highly favoured to win this game against NOBs/St Patrick’s. However in Round 14, the “Combined Colleges” scored a 63 point victory under the La Trobe Lights. Unlike many other final four teams, the wide expanses of headquarters will hold no fear for either side as they are both accustomed to playing on a big ground. La Trobe do not rely on individual goal kickers, rather they have shown versatility in attack, with their many goals spread between several players. NOBs/ St Pat’s have relied firstly on Todd MacLeod and latterly on Tom and Ben O’Halloran for their goals.

The result on Sunday morning could well depend on which back line holds up the better against unusual pressure. After a closely fought encounter, I select La Trobe to triumph.
