UMPIRES ROUND

This weekend around Australia we acknowledge the outstanding contribution umpires make to the game of Australian rules football. This goes all the way down from the professionals at the AFL, the community league umpires and the club volunteers who slog the oval blowing the whistle or waving the sticks. Without these hard working, loyal men and women our games and clubs would not be the same. On Tuesday we were fortunate to have dual AFL Grand Final Umpire Shane McInerney along with Ben Ryan (Field), Rob Haala and Jason Moore (Boundary) and Jason Venkataya (Goal) attend umpire training. Having these experts imparting their knowledge and tips was a valuable experience for our umpires.

The Umpiring Department at the VAFA is extensive.

On staff we have the General Manager of Football and Umpiring Brian Goodman with newly appointed Head of Umpiring, Brian Woodhead. Our coaches are led by Tony Hales who oversees six coaches and a fitness adviser. These coaches include boundary, goal, development and Under 19’s. Assisting them around the grounds we have nine observers who report directly to the coach. Each of these observers attend at least two matches each Saturday. When you add that now all games in Premier Section are filmed the coaching and analysis of our umpires is thoroughly examined.

There is no coincidence that we have by far the largest single representation of AFL and VFL umpires of any community league. In the AFL we currently have seven field and two boundary umpires with Chris Donlon and Simon Meredith officiating in a Grand Final. In the 2014 VFL Grand Final, the VAFA was represented by five of the nine appointed umpires two field, two boundary and one goal umpire. If you were an aspiring AFL umpire, whether it be field, goal or boundary, the VAFA is the competition to give you the best opportunity.

It is evident to me that the depth of umpiring talent in the VAFA runs deep. More young, fit, athletic men

@vafaceo and women running in the upper tiers of the VAFA than was ever seen even as little as a decade ago.

These aspiring umpires have been promoted and I believe risen to the occasion. Congratulations to Tony Hales and his team on having the confidence to make these appointments.

As a result of the coaching and additional staff we have more umpires on our books this year than previously. Many of these are still in the junior ranks and not quite ready for senior selection but their progress will be rapid. For example we have over 100 boundary umpires. Of these we have approximately 80 available each week. Approximately 40 of these are currently in the Under 19’s and colts as they are in the development phase and hopefully as the year progress and they mature, they will be able to be promoted to the senior sections. Unfortunately as they are being trained up we still need club support in the lower divisions. In many of the cases the boundary umpires of today become the field umpires of tomorrow.

THE NUMBER OF VAFA UMPIRES AT MAY 1 2014 2015 Field 143 164 Boundary 98 105 Goal 71 83 Total 312 352 This is a 12% increase on last year and Brian Woodhead isn’t stopping and our numbers are still increasing weekly.

I would like to acknowledge the clubs who provide a safe and healthy environment to all our umpires.

They are always welcomed into the social club after the games and supplied with drinks and support during the breaks. Along with our no drinking at amateur games provides a tangible positive experience for our umpires.

The VAFA Umpires Association would also like to thank Puma who kindly donated 20 pairs of Puma King boots or runners to award to the umpire of the round each week.

We trust that all umpires around the country have a rewarding experience.

WILLIAM BUCK PREMIER

@ Lennytalk

CAREY NOT MAKING UP THE NUMBERS What happens if all of a sudden your first tier is not only great but your next tier is also good and the tier below that are all working with the tiers above? Apart from a wonderfully constructed wedding cake, you have the makings of a pretty good football side. Old Carey has that at the moment. Whilst Old Xaverians didn’t fire a shot for three and half quarters, Old Carey was superb.

Credit where it is due must go to all at the club for the change in fortunes since the last time the Panthers graced the top flight. Glenn Cox has added a steely resolve to the playing group and whilst the elite talent shines, it’s the improvement in the rest of the list that had Carey playing some of the best football we have seen this year last weekend. Take note, Old Carey are a threat, they may still have their down days, but as William Buck Premier showed last weekend, that can happen to any side. Injuries are playing a part in shaping Uni Blues season. St Bernard’s ability to kick straight and Old Trinity’s fragility in the middle of the year are all still to play out. The die is not cast yet and that is a good thing. Although we are no closer to working out just who might rise, and for that matter who might fall.

Sources tell me that Beaumaris players had a line in the sand moment in the lead up to their game against Old Scotch. Whilst they didn’t follow the path of the unsociable Hawks, they did apply themselves to playing four quarters of football at Old Scotch. The Cardinals have gone from inspired to confusing in a couple of weeks. Player absences have played their part but it’s still 22 versus 22 each Saturday and the Cardinals were found off the mark against the Sharks. Heading into the final quarter at Camberwell trailing by 16 points against the winless Sharks, the Cardinals were primed for a final term overhaul. Instead it was Beaut that played the better football. Old Scotch look great in transition, but too often there were poor decisions in the back half allowing the Sharks to strike. Well done to Brayden Haynes and the team, the Sharks are back amongst it.

University Blacks returned to their bullocking best from last year and reminded the competition 2

that they will not be a one-season wonder. In the match that pitted top against bottom it was Black’s ability to kick 8 goals to Old Trinity’s 4 into what was a strong breeze that was the difference.

The fact Old Trinity lost arguably their best player in Harry Tinney to a sickening concussion in the first quarter would no doubt have played its part, but Blacks broke the game open with a five goal second quarter, out scoring Old Trinity who had the wind advantage. Here’s to the health of Tinney as he has become one of the reasons to watch William Buck Premier footy in the past 18 months.

To Blacks, it was an important win and one Luke O’Connell will be pleased with. Particularly given they withstood what loomed as a serious T’s comeback in the final term.

St Bernard’s forwards have come under the spotlight in recent week’s for their inability to hit the side of a barn door when shooting for goal.

Well a return of 13.3 for the afternoon put paid to the notion that the Snowdogs are an inaccurate side. De La Salle will be disappointed this one got away from them, but should be bullish about their form in general. The La Sallians were superior to their showing a fortnight ago, but again wasted chances sapped the team of confidence to go on with it. St Bernard’s move to top and while Alex Boyse only managed one goal this week, up stepped Tom Gleeson for a lazy Michelle.

For the second time in a fortnight Blues lost by five points at home. Whilst not crippled by injusries this time, instead they were crippled by their inability to win the clearances in the final 10 minutes of play. Sam Hibbins was a key reason for this in the middle of the ground. Blues could have put the game to bed earlier in the quarter but Collegians hung tough and kicked the late goals that got them a second consecutive win WILLIAM BUCK PREMIER — TIPS IN BOLD Old Xaverians v University Blues University Blacks v Beaumaris Collegians v St Bernard’s Old Scotch v Old Carey De La Salle v Old Trinity

of the year. Nick Corp looked in excellent touch and Zander Croft worked hard at both ends of the ground. Slow starters they may be, but the Lions are coming again.

How much of Xav’s poor showing was Carey’s doing or were the visitors just that fraction off, thus allowing Carey to take the game away from them with too much ease? Regardless of how you saw this one, Old Carey were certainly impressive. Whilst their skills on the outside and ball movement was at times delightful, it was their tackling pressure on Xavs at stoppages that was equally as important in this result. With Michael Hannan out for most of the season, Xavs seemed a key defender (or two) short. Jarrod Reid (8 goals) and Morgan Evans (4) capitalised.

Half way through the last, the Panthers led by 97 points (19 goals to 3) before they seemingly put

Just like that, the season is alive. Three of the bottom four beat three of the top four. Every game an eight point game now. My tipping has been horrendous this year, hovering at 35%, so I have flipped a coin on each game.

the cue in the rack. Xavs almost walked in their last seven goals to add some respectability to the score. Dennis Symeopoulos was best for the red and blacks, whilst it was hard to find a Panther that didn’t do their job. Julian Rowe and Jacob Murphy with the forwards were the standouts.

PREMIER B

David Chalmers

SKOB TOP OF THE POPS Last week I predicted two things: there would be some intriguing results in Round 5 and it would be hard to tip a winner. Both those statements proved true. One thing I’m enjoying about Premier B is the absence of “absolute shellackings” which seem to be prevalent in other sections of the competition.

In the wash-up of Round 5, St Kevins pushed clear on top, Fitzroy and Parkdale’s journey off the bottom of the ladder was shortlived and there’s a logjam of clubs in the middle regions.

Hampton had much to play for when they hosted Parkdale in the Premier C Grand Final rematch.

Coming off three straight losses they were celebrating triple milestones, with co-captain Leigh Fletcher and last year’s B&F winner Mark Devereaux playing their 200th club game, and Richard Atkins playing his 100th VAFA game.

The occasion brought out the best in all three men, with Fletcher and Atkins outstanding and Devereaux chipping in with two goals. The Rovers were up by three at the final change and came home with a huge eight-goal final quarter, giving them a ten goal win. Both Dillons stood out for the Vultures, while Kurt Lopo was impressive in his first game for the season, kicking two goals.

Mazenod fielded an unchanged line-up and posted their highest total for the season so far, kicking 17 goals on their way to a comfortable 33 point win over AJAX. The Nodder’s five-goalsto-nil first quarter put them in the box seat and they were never really troubled. The Jackas had more scoring shots, but accuracy in front of goal proved to be the difference. Ben Phibbs and Josh Cowan continued to lead the way for Mazenod, while AJAX were assisted by regular contributors Jake Lew and Adam Caplan. Roi Abraham kicked a couple in his first game of the year for the Jackas.

Fitzroy had the perfect opportunity to build some momentum on the back of their first win of the season when they faced a struggling Caulfield side who had lost three straight games. However, despite going scoreless in the second quarter and holding a slender “will-it-be-enough?” lead going into the last, Caulfield managed to prevail in difficult conditions. The ‘Fields started with the 4

@ DAChalmers81 wind but could only manage 2.8. Remarkably, Caulfield has only scored a goal in the second quarter once so far this season, and the pattern continued. Fortunately for them, the Roys could only manage 3.8, making it a one-kick margin at half time. The ‘Fields found their range in the third, kicking five and setting up a 15 point lead, although they would be kicking against the wind.

Disappointingly for Fitzroy, they failed to make the most of their chances and find themselves trailing the pack again. Matthew Gaite was among the Roys best in his first game for the season, while Rory Angiolella found some form. Keegan Stewart was once again the focal point for the ‘Fields, kicking four.

Old Melburnians were hoping to put an ordinary fortnight behind them, but had a daunting task coming up against the in-form St Bedes/Mentone.

Even though this showdown was third versus fourth, the two teams couldn’t have had a more contrasting form-line. The Tigers had won three on the trot since their opening round four point loss to St Kevins, while the OM’s suffered a 91-point defeat to SKOBs and then a two-goal loss to the Vultures, in which they kicked 3.10 in the final term and still fell short. The match was close all day, and similarly to the Mazenod-AJAX game, inaccuracy in front of goal proved to be the difference. The Tigers had more scoring shots but trailed at every break, eventually going down by a solitary point.

The win was a huge relief for OMs. Both clubs now sitting at 3-2, safe for now, but just one win ahead of a pack of hungry challengers. Michael Wintle made a positive impression in his first game of the season for the Tigers while Hurley-Wellington picked up where he left off for the OMs after a week out of the side.

The new surface at Brighton Beach Oval came up an absolute treat for the top-of-the-table clash between undefeated clubs St Kevins and Old Brighton. A glance at the Reserves game had revealed the wind at the South Road end to be the PREMIER B — TIPS IN BOLD Hampton Rovers v Caulfield Gr St Bedes/Mentone Tigers v Mazenod OC Fitzroy v Old Melburnians AJAX v St Kevins OB Parkdale Vultures v Old Brighton Gr

main factor for the contest ahead. It seemed to be something resembling a vortex and sent the ball from one point-post to the other at crazy angles.

It was obvious right from the start that the match was not going to be pretty. The umpires worked overtime in a low scoring first quarter, with lots of stoppages all over the ground. Plugger Lynch scored the first for the match eleven minutes in. St Kevins failed to take advantage of the wind, and when Peter Karayannis goaled for the Tonners late in the quarter, they were only eight points down.

Philip Edgar started the second quarter with a huge skyscraper of a grab and Lynch kicked another for the SKOBs, but then the Tonners regrouped and kicked the next five goals to sneak out to a 19 point lead. Kelvin Williams was excellent for St Kevins off half back and Lynch kicked another one late in the quarter to reduce the half time margin to nine points in favour of the Tonners. The SKOBs started the third with three straight behinds before kicking their first ten minutes in through Billy Kanakis. The tempo of the game lifted and

it was end-to-end for much of the quarter. Harry Cannon goaled for the Tonners to keep them in the lead, but two quick goals in red time through Nankervis and Parkes gave the SKOBbers a narrow seven point lead at the last change. One got the sense it would not be enough, and when Old Brighton drew level within the first five minutes it was “How far the Tonners?” However, St Kevins showed why they are at the head of the Premier B pack and never gave an inch. Coach Daniel Harford/Jon Edgar moved Kelvin Williams forward in what proved to be a masterstroke. He kicked a goal and assisted in another one to Henry Parkes while the Tonners couldn’t break through at the other end, resulting in an impressive 12 point win to St Kevins which leaves them outright top after five rounds.

PREMIER C

James Ried

@jamesried9

TOP FOUR DEFINED For the first time this season an outright top four has been defined. With wins to Peninsula, Monash, Marcellin and Old Ivanhoe, all four move to 4-1 and create a gap on their Premier C counterparts. On the other end of the spectrum, Old Camberwell and PEGS continue to search for their opening win of the season. While Therry Penola keep in touching distance with the top teams, defeating their Division 1 rivals Williamstown CYMS in the Grand Final rematch in a come from behind victory.

Monash Blues secured the early edge over the struggling PEGS in the first term, catapulting the lead to a healthy, percentage-boosting victory.

The Blues bagged six majors in the first quarter – equivalent to PEGS’ final score – and added 11 more before the final siren. PEGS were unable to keep up with Monash’s heavy-handed attack despite Robert Baddeley’s three goals. Monash proved they have quality all across the field with a solid defence to go along with their 10 goal kickers. Cameron, Rossetti and Hardiman the major contributors up forward with three majors each, while Joseph Cosgriff was best on ground in the 80 point win.

Peninsula was in a similar boat to Monash as they came up against the battling side in Old Camberwell. The Pirates took advantage of this and got back onto the winners list in emphatic fashion with a 107 point thrashing. With eleven goals to one in the first term, the game ended as a contest there, as the question became how much will Peninsula win by. The Pirates broke the 100mark by three-quarter-time and it could have got even uglier for the Wellers, but a minor fight back in the last kept the scoreboard from blowing out. James Fletcher was best on for Peninsula while Harry Whitty led the goal kicking with four majors in a consummate team performance.

Old Haileyburians were on the receiving end of a reality check last weekend as Marcellin outlined the difference between third and fifth.

Old Haileybury had a first quarter to forget and it evidently cost them the game. Marcellin made 6

the Bloods look second rate with a ten goal to one opening quarter as the Eagles jumped away.

Old Haileybury tried to pull back the margin in the remaining quarters but could never put a true dent into the deficit. The Eagles’ forward duo, Daniel McMahon (5) and Andrew McKay (4) had the Bloods’ backs under wraps while Ashley Viney led from the front in a B.O.G performance to secure a 66 point victory.

It took a half for Old Ivanhoe to settle in with the blustery wind flowing across the ground at Oakleigh, but after the major break the Hoes made their mark. The Krushers were solid in the first half, adapting to the local conditions quicker and made it known on the scoreboard with five goals in the opening term. Ivanhoe chipped into Oakleigh’s advantage in the second to pull it to a two point margin. After halftime however it was all one way as Old Ivanhoe kicked nine more majors to run away with a convincing 45 point win. In the end the scoreboard wasn’t a reflection of the contest as Old Ivanhoe proved inaccurate in front of goal. Bradley Thompson kicked five for Old Ivanhoe while Carl Groth was a headache for Oakleigh up forward and on the ball, ending with three majors and best on ground honours.

In the Division 1 Grand Final rematch Williamstown CYMS looked set to not only once again knock off Therry Penola, but also to regain some much needed momentum in Premier C. But the CY’s couldn’t repeat their 2014 happy ending in 2015, as Therry Penola bounced back from a three-quarter-time deficit to take the four points.

The Bannister brothers, Jarrod and Corey couldn’t make an impact against Williamstown last year in Division 1, however, they proved the difference this time round with nine goals between the two.

Captain Jarrod Egglestone’s top form and grunt in the midfield continued, setting up an 11 point win over their old rivals.

the Wellers having enough firepower to hold off the Blues.

This week, Williamstown CYMS host Old Haileyburians, the CY’s have slipped to 1-4 and will be desperate to get back into the winner’s circle. However, tipping the Bloods to earn the points away from home. Marcellin plays Therry Penola at home, and I expect the Eagles to get the win. Oakleigh travels to PEGS and will rebound from last weeks defeat and secure the victory. Peninsula combat Old Ivanhoe, both are 4-1 coming into the game, and I am predicting Peninsula to hold off Ivanhoe at home in the match of the round. Old Camberwell, desperate for a win, takes on Monash Blues, but I can’t see

SOUTH MORNINGTON WIN WARMS THE HEART Drought breaking wins are some of the best in footy. When you have been down on your luck as South Mornington has for the past couple of seasons, getting that first senior win is like a finals breakthrough.

Congratulations to South Mornington who finally triumphed after 25 consecutive losses that spanned 647 days! The win unfortunately for their opposition came against fellow struggler Chadstone, who are on their own losing run. Chadstone’s run is a little longer at 41 matches or coming up to 1009 days by the start of Round 6.

AMMO ODD SPOT He had a name more in tune with a Country and Western singer; Plus, the swagger of Dermie Brereton, and wore more bling than a Casino hi-roller.

His name was Lou Bols who coached Old Scotch to a premiership in 1932, and repeated the same feat with Ormond in A Grade in 1950. Despite his portly frame Lou is best described as an absolute fashion plate. He coached his charges wearing a big brown hat turned up all sides, had a diamond stud in his tiepin, and chain smoked a jumbo size cigar for the entire game. Lou’s football pedigree included playing for Fitzroy in the VFL, plus time with Brunswick in the VFA.

LOST FOOTY

We loved this letter to FTLOTG this week: During the last quarter of the Swinburne v Hawthorn game in Div 3 last week, a Swinburne player had a shot at goal down the Burwood Rd end of St James’ Park. It went through for a point and bounced onto the road just as a tram pulled in at the stop next to the ground. The ball bounced perfectly up onto the roof of the tram and instead of falling off the other side, got stuck in behind an advertising board on top. It stuck there perfectly and the tram pulled away quite happily, stealing the footy, which never looked like coming off. We never saw it again - I’d be pretty sure it’s still there, unless they check the top of the trams! The game was only held up for a minute while someone found the spare match ball but geez - the chances of it happening have got to be bloody low - a tram stealing a footy... it’s a pretty Melbourne thing to happen. I was wondering if it might be worth asking in the newsletter if it was the first time it’s ever happened in the VAFA? Apparently it was one of the funniest things that anyone has seen on a footy field, players and spectators alike took a while to compose themselves before play could resume.

THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2015

EVACUATION AT DINNER Bendigo Bank East Malvern Branch has been a proud sponsor of the VAFA and many of our clubs for most if not all of their 15 years. At their 15th Anniversary dinner last week to celebrate the bank giving more the $3.5million back to the community, the dinner was interrupted by a forced evacuation due to a fire. All an sundry at the dinner, including the club Presidents of Collegians, De La Salle, St Kevins and Caulfield

Grammarians, plus VAFA CEO Michael Sholly were escorted out onto Malvern Road whilst the fire trucks turned up. We are unsure if any of the guests ever received their burnt dinners or indeed if the fire started in the kitchen. It certainly made for an interested evening though and great story to tell when the Bendigo Bank get together to celebrate 20 years in the community in five years time.

THE NEW FRED? The beauty of footy is you can turn up to a game and never really know what is going to happen. This was certainly the case for North Brunswick reserves player Bradley Courts who bobbed up on the weekend and kicked lazy 17 of his sides 24 goals against Masala. Courts turned 28 on Monday and perhaps he was cashing in on an early birthday present?

Courts is familiar with kicking a bag, last year in the reserves in the only two games he played, he managed a bag of ten and nine goals respectively. Whilst his total of 17 last week takes the year to 30 goals from his four games, more impressive is that he has played a total of 8 reserves games at North Brunswick for a return of 53 goals! We don’t know if Bradley is injury prone or more itinerant in his lifestyle, but we are sure the Bulls would be keen to ensure he stays on the park for the remainder of the season. He may even be targeting Fred Fanning’s 18 goals in a game.

OLD BRIGHTON UNVEIL NEW SURFACE

HAWTHORN CELEBRATE 20 YEARS

A large crowd assembled for lunch at Old Brighton’s Beach Oval on Saturday to celebrate the opening of the new on field facilities. The oval was officially opened by Bayside Mayor, Cr Felicity Frederico, assisted by the Federal member for Goldstein, The Hon Andrew Robb.

Cr Frederico spoke about Bayside Councils commitment to upgrading facilities in the area with Beaumaris and Hampton Rovers being beneficiaries. The councillor also stated that the change rooms and social room were also on target for renovations in the next years. On the field the Tonners have started in great fashion sitting on top of the Premier B ladder undefeated.

Congratulations on a wonderful refurbishment of the ground and the great relationship the club has built with the council.

Hawthorn Amateur footy club celebrated their first 20 years on Saturday night at Kooyong Lawn Tennis Club with their annual Hawk Ball.

Phil Avery, who started his playing career at the club in 1996, and still playing seniors today, spoke of his time at the club. He reflected on his memories of the 1998 premiership, the Almost Football Legends appearance, the fun had at the old run down clubrooms right through to the Reserves premiership last year. As part of the celebrations

SPT’S PLAYER ANALYSER

SPORTS PERFORMANCE TRACKING’S ANALYSER –

TOM WINDLOW – UMPIRE This week Sports Performance Tracking’s Player Analyser focuses on an Umpire. Yes that’s right, what do the guys in green run during the game? It is Umpires Round after all.

FIVE MINUTE INTERVALS

Tom Windlow umpired the William Buck Premier Rd 5 match between Old Scotch and Beaumaris at Camberwell Sports Ground, so let’s take a look at some of his stats.

This week Sports Performance Tracking’s Player Analyser focuses on an Umpire. Yes that’s right, what do the guys in green run during the game? It is Umpires Round after all. Tom Windlow umpired the William Buck Premier Rd 5 match between Old Scotch and Beaumaris at Camberwell Sports Ground, so let’s take a look at some of his stats.

Over the past 4 weeks, we have had a look at 3 players and the differences the GPS showed. We all know that Midfielders run far! We all know that Key Forwards and Key Backs work hard. But how hard does an Umpire work during a game.

Being an umpire requires patience, confidence and a very thick skin. Now we can add a supreme fitness level to that skill set. Tom racked up a very impressive 16.9km with 109 sprint efforts. This is more than any of the previously recorded players we had analysed.

THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2015

Obviously the umpires do not endure the contact and physical impacts that the players do, but Tom’s individual distance is impressive.

If we take a deeper look at Tom’s numbers, it uncovers a stark difference in his zone running.

Albeit covering 16.9km is a lot, but he only recorded 177 meters in Zone 6 (6 metres/second +) and only 20% of his entire distance was at a running speed (more than 16km/h).

Tom’s distance covered in each quarter didn’t deteriorate at all; in fact it almost improved over the course of the day. His ability to stay consistent was impressive which allows him to make the best decisions possible under duress.

However, Tom spent 50% or less than the three players we have analysed in the top zones running. These stats prove that Tom’s fitness levels are much higher at the middle range zones as apposed to the players who need higher zone fitness level with the ability to rest.

Will Strange is the CEO and founder of Sports Performance Tracking (sportsperformancetracking. com). This year they have teamed with the VAFA to analyse how VAFA footballers compare to the elite level using their GPS tracking technology.

100

Congratulations to Canterbury’s ANDREW WINN – Winny started playing with Canterbury in 2006. He always stayed in touch with the club, even during his move to the West. Winny is a solid defender whose pace allows him to collect the footy and run it out of the back line with ease. He goes in hard and gives 100% every match. Congratulations on playing 100 games, and we look forward to 100 more games.

100

Congratulations to Canterbury’s ROHAN WALMSLEY – Wombat started his career at Canterbury in 2008. He has been captain of the seniors and leads by example.

Congratulations on playing 100 games!

100

Congratulations to St Marys Salesian’s ANDREW BAIRD – a St Marys player in pre-merger days, ‘Bairdy’ began his footy career as a key forward, but is now a ‘hard at the ball’ utility player capable of kicking long goals.

100

Congratulations to St. Marys Salesian’s LEWIS HAWKINS – a St Marys player in ‘standalone days,’ Lewis is a midfield or centreline player able to lift teammates with his determination and skills. Lewis has been restricted by leg injuries in recent times but played a valuable role in the Saints 2014 VAFA Reserves premiership team.

100

Congratulations to St Johns’ ADAM BOUCHIER – Bouchier played an integral part in St Johns’ 2011 premiership campaign, with his versatility a key asset.

Given St Johns’ current form, Bouchier looks bound for another finals campaign.

LITTLE PINK HOUSES BECOME HOLMES

Linking John ‘Cougar’ Mellancamp’s 1983 song ‘Little Pink Houses’, which critiqued the homogenisation of middle class USA and the contradictions of the term ‘freedom’ within society, with Mothers’ Day and Louis Holmes’ 7 goals in St Mary’s Salesian’s classic comeback against Whitefriars is not something I would wish upon my greatest foe, but I have taken on the task.

We celebrated pink, the colour, the spirit and the delicate touch that represents womanhood over the weekend and with that; the inevitable questions arise about how to honour the women in our life.

Do we all have to subscribe to the commercial notions that only a gift of significant value will show our complete and utter devotion to our mothers’, grandmothers’ et al? Or can we break the shackle of commercialism and break down the little pink houses and realise that our presence and love is enough? Louis Holmes’ showed that his presence and desire was enough to drag St Mary’s out of the deluge and into the winners’ circle. In retrospect I should have just referenced that the contribution of women to the VAFA and our lives in general is far too significant for a mere VAFA scribe to sum up. Additionally, great song and great performance from Mellancamp and Holmes respectively.

Continuing on with the St Mary’s Salesian and Whitefriars game, the sting of losing a game that they led by 39 points at one stage will haunt the Friars for many weeks to come. Coming into the game at 1-3 and needing a win to stay in the pack, Whitefriars shocked the hot and cold St Mary’s outfit with their sharp and focused performance for the first three quarters. However, the final quarter saw SMS finally turn on the switch to kick 8 goals to 1 and turn the seemingly academic result into a boil over. As previously mentioned in the clumsy opening monologue, Louis Holmes kicked 4 in the last to drag his boys over the line. Sid Jones continued his impressive form with 3 goals and his usual kamikaze-like attack on the ball. For the Friars, Ryan Malt was terrific with 4 goals, with Sean Currie playing a strong game in the midfield.

In better news for the Old Boys, senior player Aaron Brosolo’s suspected broken leg was just a mirage, and the great man is expected to be back on the park in 2-3 weeks.

Old Geelong followed trend with an 8 goal to 1 last quarter at Alec Gillon Oval, embarrassing the hitherto impressive NOBS/St Pats to come out 45-point winners. With the game in the balance at ¾ time, it was Callum Wood who secured the 3 votes with a gladiatorial 8-goal haul. As the ladies luncheon roared on, both sides played a magnificent third term with Kyle Adams and star veteran Matt Keown in particular playing inspired footy for NOBSPC. With the game on the line, Old Geelong’s tried and true produced a truly dominant last quarter, something that will worry the other stalwarts of the competition. Along with Wood, Colby O’Brien yet again played a strong game in the midfield and Andrew Leahy worked hard across the ground.

The Kew Bears remained undefeated in their return to the ground that produced the first of their backto-back premierships in 2013 down in Division 3, Ted Ajani Reserve. Rumour has it premiership captain Michael Cochrane plans on naming his new kitten ‘Teddy’ in honour of the ground. Despite giving up an 11-point half time deficit to Bulleen Templestowe, the Bears were able to stymie the Bullants’ forward line in the second half, coming out 29-point victors.

Ned Rohrt, who played in the reserves on that memorable afternoon, summed up the Bears’ commitment to the ball with a hard-nosed, selfless performance in the middle. Last week’s Rising Star Rob Maibaum combined well with Andrew Brazzale up forward, as the pair kicked 8 goals between them.

For Bulleen, despite a praiseworthy performance, lacked the midfield depth to go with Kew for four quarters. Stellan Avramidis and Mason Giles, playing fierce and determined footy, were amongst the best for the Bullants.

In a high scoring affair, Yarra Valley’s 2015 season remains in dire straits as they fell to the attacking Old Mentonians outfit. Going goal for goal for much of the afternoon, it was not until final term that Old Mentonians finally opened up an insurmountable lead.

On the back of big raps last week, Comrey Edgeworth bombarded the Yarra Valley midfield and backline with help from usual suspect Luke Hull. Yarra Valley faces a crucial clash with Whitefriars this week in the hope of getting their season rolling.

Ormond encountered a promising performance from Prahran Assumption, before extending their undefeated streak at Toorak Park. The question marks over Prahran’s poor start to the year can be answered by assessing their draw, however, they’ll be frustrated with their last quarter efforts thus far. With gun centre half forward Gerard Hogarth sidelined in the first quarter with a hamstring injury, the Assumption men were immediately placed on the back foot. John Robbins produced a

With Prahran struggling at 1-4 and St Mary’s clinging onto fourth after a series of indifferent results, both sides desperately need to win. With Hogarth in doubt, SMS will be favoured. However, I’m expecting the weather to play a role.

strong performance in his absence, kicking 3, and performing his usual wizardry, but it simply wasn’t enough to prevent the rampaging Monders’ from collecting another scalp. Rob Chisholm kicked 5 goals and James Landman was the best of a very good bunch. As seems to be the case when analysing the difference between teams in this division, it is the ball use from the half back line that allows good sides’ crucial time to build strong forward thrusts. Ormond is a very, very competent side in this regard.

RAIDERS BURST TO VICTORY Last week’s results went relatively to plan, with Old Paradians’ 40 point win over Old Eltham the exception. Both sides have shown significant improvement this year, but have also faulted at times. At this stage, both are a rung below Ivanhoe and St Johns, with Northern Blues nipping at their heels. In a low scoring dour affair, both sides mirrored one another on the scoreboard until the Raiders put the Turtles to the sword with a barnstorming seven goal last quarter. Old Paradians led at every change and found alternate avenues to goal as Kandilakis and Holden kicked three a piece, with coach David Boundy only managing one. For the Turtles, they failed to take their home form on the road, in what has been a common theme over the past few years. Old Paradians face a stern test this week as it travels to Thomas Carroll Reserve and will look to knock-off the undefeated St Johns. If they’re to show true improvement, these are the games the Raiders must start to win to cement their spot in the top-four. Old Eltham has a chance to go 4–2 as it faces Monash at Eltham College, it what’s a must win for the Turtles.

Monash put in its best performance of the year in what was a missed opportunity against Ivanhoe. The Gryphons had 26 scoring shots to 21 and let their chance of knocking off one of Div 2’s heavyweights slip, in a heart breaking loss.

Ivanhoe stamped its authority from the opening bounce with a seven goal to one first quarter.

But Monash played its best quarter for the year in the second, kicking 6.6 and cut the margin to 20 points at the main change. Both sides shared the points in a dour second half with five goals a-piece as the Hoes held the Gryphons at bay. It was a game for the forwards, as Lovell led Ivanhoe with six, and Cassidy attempted to will Monash over the line with five. This could turn out to be a watershed moment for the Gryphons who will need to take that form to the fortress that is Eltham College. Ivanhoe, after the previous week’s loss to 18

Northern Blues did what they needed to against the Gryphons, but will need to find a sharper edge for Melbourne High this week. The Unicorns have found form and should not be taken lightly.

St Johns put the previous week’s disappointment behind them with a hard fought seven point win over an impressive Richmond Central. After taking a few weeks to find its feet, Richmond Central is starting to find its form in Div 2 and was in this contest until the death. The Snakes pushed the JOCs to the wire, who had to rely on some heroics from forward Rohan Scott to get over the line. Richmond Central’s accuracy in front of goal was uncanny at times and at one stage it had 13.1 on the board. The JOCs remained in the contest mainly due to ruckman Dan Cattolico’s influence at the stoppages and around the ground. The Snakes midfield took the points around the clearances but simply ran out of legs in the last.

The JOCs’ backline was staunch all day, with Cam Christensen impassable in the last. Richmond Central face rivals Northern Blues this week, in a replay last year’s Division 3 Grand Final. Both are in form and looking to take a spot in the top-four. St Johns take on the “Jekyll and Hyde” Old Paradians in what promises to be a classic.

Northern Blues kicked eight goals to one in the first quarter against South Melbourne and then didn’t kick their ninth until the last quarter.

Remarkably, the Blues ran out winners by eight goals. The Districts put in their best performance of the year, and despite their sluggish start, had the better of the Blues for most of the day. The Clarke brothers combined for five goals for South Melbourne as McRedmond continued his good DIVISION 2 — TIPS IN BOLD Elsternwick v South Melbourne Eltham v Monash Ivanhoe v MHSOB St Johns v Old Paradians Northern Blues v Richmond Central

form for the Blues bagging five. South Melbourne remain anchored to the bottom of the ladder but has its best chance for a win this week against a hapless Elsternwick. While the Blues host arch rivals and fellow top-four aspirants Richmond Central in the match of the round.

It was a good day all round for the Unicorns with each of their teams all recording a win on the same day. MHSOB face a bigger test this week against ladder leaders Ivanhoe while Elsternwick face the luckless South Melbourne in a must win if they’re to advance up the ladder.

Melbourne High School Old Boys showed it shouldn’t be underestimated as it banged on seven goals to nil in the last to record a commanding 48 point win over Elsternwick.

In what was an intriguing encounter, both sides had two goalless quarters, but it was the Unicorns who rose above. Unicorns rebounding defender Andrew Villani was resolute all day and continually repelled Elsternwick’s forays forward.

DIVISION 3

Gavin Southern

A RACE IN TWO? Round 5 had some cracking games and seesawing quarters due to the blustery conditions. Aquinas made the division stand up and take notice. Hawthorn is beginning to make a move and Eley Park showed character in the 4th, to get across the finish line. It seems Emmaus St. Leo’s and West Brunny can’t be touched. . . . . yet.

AQUINAS DEF. SWINBURNE UNI Swinburne Uni started well and dictated terms, however couldn’t put it on the scoreboard in the first 10 minutes. Once they got going, Swinburne dominated with a good spread, accurate kicking and overhead marking.

Aquinas first goal was 10 minutes before half time courtesy of Sam Williams. For the Bloods, Michael Niezen and Andy La Marca put on a midfield clinic in the 3rd quarter with Niezen kicking 3 running goals from centre clearances.

Aquinas’ Lachy McDonald, began a tagging role on Danny Manning after half time to put a stop to his first half dominance. Aquinas then went on a rampage kicking 11 of the last 13 goals of the game. The final quarter was a hard fought affair with Swinny uncharacteristically, failing to capitalise of their forward entries. Sam Williams ended the day with 4 for the Bloods.

UHS-VU DEF. BY WEST BRUNSWICK The West Brunswick train just kept rolling on at Brens oval with a strong convincing win.

UHS won the toss and kicked with the aide of a reasonable breeze. The Vultures kicked the first two goals in quick time and led at the first change. However, through the efforts of Dillon, Stubbings, Ferrier, “Red” Lloyd and 100 gamer Chris German, the Magpies managed to steady and get to quarter time a goal down. Then came the Magpie onslaught as they dominated play in their forward half, but didn’t convert on many opportunities. UHS got 2 goals on the rebound and at halftime were still in with a sniff. UHS came out hard in the 3rd, but were unable to make a dent on the scoreboard, allowing the Magpies to then kick away in the last quarter for what on the scoreboard looked a comfortable win. The score didn’t reflect the closeness of the 20

@gavsouthern game around the ground, and UHS should hold their heads high on their effort. Charles Jackson was best for UHS. The Magpies poor kicking for goal again is still their Achilles heel but, they shouldn’t be complaining as they head towards a bye at 5-0 .

LA TROBE UNI DEF. BY EMMAUS ST. LEO’S It was windy at La Trobe, which made it a difficult to play consistent football. La Trobe kicked with the advantage in the first to lead by a goal at the end of the quarter. The Animals fired in the 2nd with 5 unanswered goals. Through Shaun Field and Bradley Hoffman, La Trobe attacked in the 3rd but the Animals defence of Ronan Stafford and Anthony Ballard, held strong. The Animals started well in the last, but La Trobe fought back against the wind to go down by 62 points. Division 3 goal-kicking leader, Christopher Beluszar (5 goals) and Paul Baranello (3 goals) were the go-to players, in a very even performance. La Trobe should definitely take a lot out of this game as they were able to slow the Animals down in two quarters.

HAWTHORN DEF. ALBERT PARK I said it last week but, Hawthorn are starting to gain momentum. They also aren’t relying on the same players week in week out to get the job done. After a challenging 1st quarter which saw the Falcons up by 2, the Hawks slowly but surely kept edging away from the Falcons at each exchange. Ben Raeside and Jack Amies were best for the Falcons but, just simply couldn’t get it going at Rathmines Rd. The Hawks Sam Gold, had again kicked a bag with a season high 6 goals. The Hawks, Devan Healey was best on the field.

ELEY PARK DEF. POWER HOUSE Eley Park were struck by yet ANOTHER big injury before the game with full forward “Burner” Bahnsen ruled out. Things didn’t get better with “Mighty Mouse”, Mitch Flynn breaking his collar bone 5 mins into the 1st. Power House started the better side with the use of a decent breeze and Luke Stubbs kicking 3 majors in the quarter (4 for

The Sharks pegged them back with some excellent on ball work from Patty McMahon and Terry Dingledei. The returning, Declan Mitchell finishing off their good work. Again with the breeze, Power House managed to get on top and held a 2 goal buffer at the last change.

Emmaus St. Leo’s (2nd) head out to tackle Power House (10th) on their ground. Emmaus St. Leo’s just simply have too much firepower and could possibly take top spot as a result. It could have very well been Swinburne Uni (5th), that we would have been praising instead of Aquinas.

So the Razorbacks will be hungry. La Trobe Uni (9th), in my opinion, have had the toughest draw so far and it’s not going to get easier when they head out to St. James Park. Unfortunately, La Trobe will drop another one.

PREVIEW

Lastly, Eley Park stay at Whitehorse reserve for the second week running, to host a Aquinas unit that is up and about. Eley Park are undermanned against a very strong side that’s out for “blood”. Sorry. Aquinas to win. West Brunswick take a well earned break with the bye before the “Battle of the Birds” with Albert Park.

My match of the round is Albert Park (6th) hosting UHS-VU (4th). Both sides had a week to forget and need to bounce back. I’m going for UHS-VU, as they would have learned something from the Magpies. Glen Eira (11th) have had the

DIVISION 4

Rich Hummerson

@Richie_Humm

LICKING OUR WOUNDS While we’re all licking our wounds from arguably the hardest week in footy tipping history and silently scolding Diana from accounts payable for her efforts in tipping nine, we can take solace in the fact that the results in Division 4 played out exactly as expected.

It was the old adage where the rich got richer and the poor poorer this week, the great divide between the top and bottom halves of the competition growing larger in the process.

While it’s certainly too early for the last rights to be read to, the alarm bells must be starting to chorus at a few clubs.

North Brunswick played host to Masala, with the gratuities ceasing almost immediately after the first bounce, the Bulls leading from pillar to post, running out very comfortable winners by 70 points. Benjamin Gallagher continued his incredible start to the season with six goals and best on honours. Daniel Nugent and Jarrod Ford were also pretty handy for the Bulls. Masala were inspired by efforts from James Logan and Jordan Toikalkin’s three goals.

The undefeated Cantebury have obviously had the dream start to season 2015, but they’ve also had the dream draw, Manningham their only scalp of potential finals contenders. Their clash against Westbourne Grammarians, on paper, should have been a test, and it was for three quarters, until Canterbury flexed their figurative bicep and quashed their opposition into brutal submission.

For a third week in a row, Scott Fitzgerald made light work of his multiple opponents and skipper Ben Peel was simply devastating. Dale Collins kicked seven for the losers and Adam Rompel toiled hard all day.

Chadstone hosted the much maligned South Mornington, and would have fancied themselves to chalk up win number one for the season.

Holding onto an unfamiliar and narrow lead going into the second stanza, Jordan Reserve was buzzing. Unfortunately, the slender lead at the first 22

www.vafa.com.au

break would be as good as it gets for the much improved Chadstone, down by ten goals at the final siren. Scenes of jubilation exclusively for the Tigers faithful who secured a first senior win for the first time since round 16, 2013.

It was ticketed as the game of the round, and unlike those that forked out the 60 clams for the Mayweather Pacquiao fight last week; the masses that braved the traffic over the Westgate were not disappointed. While Point Cook managed to stretch their lead to five goals at a stage, Box Hill aided with a strong breeze, piled on the goals in the last quarter, and probably should have made Point Cook pay for their woeful inaccuracy in front of goal. Unfortunately for the travelling Box Hill they couldn’t, falling gallantly short by a few kicks at the final bell. For the victors it was Shane Sinclair, Matty Rocco and Mason Kip who took home the vouchers to the local haunts and free haircuts while Dean Templeton, Michael Tilly and Benjamin Marcakis were impressive for Box Hill.

The travelling Parkside doubled their season 2015 victories with a comfortable victory over Mount Lilydale. Parkside jumped out of the box early and created what would be an unassailable lead in the opening minutes of the first quarter. The ever reliable, Shane Mclaren was clinical again, notching up an impressive clearance tally and Liam Bell backed up last week’s solid performance with a best on this week. For the hosts, it was Max Hampton with four goals who was best and Tom Bailey who ensured the loss wasn’t greater.

After throwing in the towel in my AFL tipping, my undivided attention is now with Division 4, and I’m licking my lips this week, very bullish I’ll tip the card this week.

DIVISION 4 — TIPS IN BOLD Masala v Box Hill North Canterbury v Chadstone South Mornington v Point Cook Manningham v North Brunswick Westbourne Gr v Parkside

THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2015

Please email your match reports, thoughts and feelings by Sunday afternoon to rich.hummerston@gmail.com

Box Hill North make the trip out to Noble Park, and while Masala are improving exponentially each week, the task will be too great, Box Hill to come home with the points.

Canterbury host Chadstone and the ladder leaders will easily account for their guests.

While a 90-minute journey seems inconceivable in a metropolitan football league, that’s the challenge the boys from way out west face as they fuel up their Hilux’s and drive from one peninsular to another. Unfortunately for South Mornington, they journey will do little to quash a rampant Point Cook. Point Cook comfortably here.

DIVISION 4

Westbourne, with a host of big names out last week performed admirably last week against Canterbury and will look to atone for their defeat.

They should run out comfortable winners against the ailing Parkside.

THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2015

CLUB WAREHOUSE RISING STAR 2015 CHRISTOPHER MARGIN – OLD XAVERIANS Congratulations to Christopher Margin who is this week’s Club Warehouse Rising Star.

After playing U/19’s in 2013, Chris made his senior debut in Round 1 of the 2014 season. But it is only this season, after another strong preseason, that Chris has emerged as a regular and important part of the Old Xaverians senior team. A young man that speaks by his actions not words, Chris is an elite athlete and fierce competitor. His performances in the early part of this season on the wing have impressed all, combining his natural talent with gut running and straight line attack on the footy.

It’s great to see Chris combining with his brother Matt in senior footy, really enjoying their involvement in the club. With this level of commitment, effort and pride in his footy, Chris will excel in VAFA footy and form a key part of the Old Xavs push for success in years ahead.

THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2015

* 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 It was an important game in D3 Section when improving Hawthorn met the undefeated La Trobe Uni at Rathmines Road. The first half was a terrific contest and the strong La Trobe team could not break away but held a 14 point lead. In the second half La Trobe proved why they were regarded as the definite team to beat with 15 goals to 5, final score 23.6 to 11.9. Best – Farrell, Shiels, Harding, Ganino (6), McMaster, Wood (Hawthorn) and Simpson, Tremowen, McPhie, Hayes, Piccolo, Lee (Haw).

In D4 Section, Mount Lilydale continued on their merry way and remained undefeated as they dispatched a valiant Box Hill North, 19.14 to 11.12.

Box Hill North were leading by 1 point at half time but Mount Lilydale powered away in the second half. Best – Violi, Zinghini, Taylor, Rantall, McKenzie (7), Black (MtL) and Burnett, Robinson, Tambakis, Berlowitz, Keillor, Scrase (BHN).

In the popular ‘For The Love Of The Game’ column St Bernards were paid a compliment for their celebration of Mothers Day with a performance from Wendy Stapleton. Wendy played the role of Dusty Springfield in the hot stage show “Dusty”, which coincidentally was co-produced by former Old Haileybury President, Dennis Smith. Wendy and a number of mothers, wives and girlfriends from St Bernards had formed a singing group who met regularly to fine tune their skills!

Peninsula legend, Steve Parsons who played his 300th game, 270 of which had been in the senior team. After originally finding his feet in the reserves, Steve became a regular senior player and joined two other Pirates to play 300 games, Scott Glover (313) and Simon McMahon (306). Steve’s brother Andrew also played 227 games for the club.

At Ormond, Matthew Martinov reached his 150th game and had crossed to Ormond after starting his junior career with De La Salle in 1997. Steve won Ormond’s U19 Best and Fairest in 2001 and had been a State representative in 2008 as well as a valued member of Ormond’s C Grade premiership.

10 YEARS AGO – 2005 The big game in D3 Section was St Johns OC (1st) playing Werribee (2nd), Werribee being the visitors.

St Johns could have easily blown the game with their inaccuracy in the first quarter (1.8) but they were in front by 15 points at half time. Werribee struggled to convert from numerous opportunities and although they had the best of the final term, St Johns were victorious 8.15 to 6.6 to take the early bragging rights.

42

Best – Diaz, O’Connor, Peake, Scardamaglia, Waters, Skinner (St J) and M Keogh, Spry, P Keogh, Jordan, Addamo, Carson (Werribee). Richard Eastwood and Matt Goold were the field umps.

Top team in D4, Elsternwick, did not have it all their own way against Eltham Collegians in the first half.

After a bit of a ‘rev’ at the main break, The Wicks were more convincing in the second half and won 11.19 to 6.10. Best – B Mahoney, Cotter, Curtain (4), Cummins, S Mahoney, Yemm (Elsternwick) and Andrews, Savage, J Galvin, Stockdale, Hargrave, Ogilvie (Eltham). Field umps were Jon Kerr and David D’Altera.

Big milestones at Albert Park with both Mark Phillips and Nick Pastras recording their 200th games while St Mary’s Adam Ballantyne, aka the ‘likeable larrikin’, played his 100th.

20 YEARS AGO – 1995 In A Section, De La Salle kicked themselves out of a win against North Old Boys 10.19 to 12.9 to go down by 2 points. It was close all day and when a De La defender cramped in the dying seconds he skewed his kick into the hands of NOBS’ sharpshooter Luke Boyle who kicked the goal to win the game. Best – Boyle (4), McIlroy, Martin, Manassa, Tonkin and Mahoney (NOBS) and B Mannix, Conroy, Miller, Eddy, Tully, Harrison (3) for De La Salle. This win gave NOBS a real lift and some confidence to drag themselves out of the relegation zone.

In B Section, Old Haileybury travelled to Bulleen Templestowe and after a slack start piled on the goals to finish with a strong win 24.17 to 10.11. Best – Lappage (6), Armstrong, Byrns, Hilton, Waldon (7), Phillips (OH) and Field, Robertson, Smith, Tulloch, Agrotis, McWaters (BT).

D Section senior coaches were Mark Eustice (Caulfield Grammarians), Gerard Halpin (Glenhuntly), Don Scarlett (Hampton Rovers), Graeme Ewart (Old Camberwell), Laurie Zarafa (Parkside), Derek Hine (Southbank), Rob Shinners (St Johns OC), Allan Fleming (Thomastown), Alan Quaife (Uni Blacks) and Steve Weir (Williamstown).

All at Ormond congratulated Darren Wood on reaching 100 games. ‘Woody” had arrived at Ormond U19’s from St Peters Junior Football club. His ‘never say die’ attitude was greatly appreciated at the E E Gunn Reserve.

B Section field umpires were J Garrett, Graeme Thwaites, Peter Keogh, Peter Simpson, J Moore, Geoff Ridd, Heath Little, Colin Segota, T Hales and Mark Jenkins.

30 YEARS AGO – 1985 The cold and wintry conditions saw a reduction in THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2015

scoring opportunities in the majority of games and produced some close results. It was a critical game in A Section when Ormond (5th) travelled to Ivanhoe (3rd). The game was a low scoring affair but produced a great win for Ormond 5.17 to 4.6. Phil Mehrten was outstanding for Ormond and his great strength was a major factor in the heavy conditions. Similarly, Ivanhoe skipper, Peter Gittos, was outstanding for his team. Other key players on the day were Simon Eishold, Andrew Mehrten, David McDonald, Beard and Burke for Ormond and O’Sullivan, Dulevskis, Baker, Sharp and Balcombe for Ivanhoe.

The top sides in C Section, Therry and Fawkner staged the first of their great battles in this season.

Therry, the home side, held their lead at half time by 14 points and their coach, Bernie Dunn, seemed to have the answers against the talent of Fawkner.

Fawkner’s third quarter was outstanding and turned the game around as they slammed on 10 goals to Therry’s 6. With a 9 point lead going into the final term, Fawkner again outscored Therry 7 goals to 4 and won comfortably in the end, 26.11 to 20.18 in a very entertaining game. Best – Young (4), Korp (8), Majerczak (5), Weir, Buust (Fawkner) and Reidy, Matton, Crotty, O’Rourke (5), Biddlestone, Taylor (Therry).

40 YEARS AGO – 1975 30 year old Graham Warfe was Coburg’s senior coach in A Section and first became interested in the club as a five year old mascot. Having amassed 247 games for the juniors and seniors, Graham was now directing his charges from over the fence. He had been a great contributor to interstate football for the VAFA including both captaincy and vice captaincy. He was also a major trophy winner for his club. Graham’s list on injuries over his playing career had been extensive but never deterred him. It had been a rocky start to the season but the club had won the last two and seemed back on track.

Two top A Section players recorded their 100th games. Gerard Mahoney (St Bernards) always displayed his versatility and was a terrific contributor for the Bernies. Peter Murphy was the classy full back for Ormond. Both players were a credit to their respective clubs and to the VAFA.

45 YEARS AGO – 1970 Collegians staged their Reunion Day at the Harry Trott Oval with a tremendous crowd in attendance.

Organiser, Warwick Mitchell was very pleased. The ‘bag of spuds’ was won by club medical officer, Dr Vivian!

The training squad for the upcoming Perth Carnival THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2015

had been chosen, made up of 42 from A Section, 21 from B Section, 4 from C Section and 1 each from D and E Sections.

Coburg (A), Uni Blacks (B), Uni High School Old Boys (C) and Army Apprentices (Junior 2) were the only undefeated teams.

Coburg were almost upset by De La Salle who handled the wet conditions well, even though De La Salle scored only 9 points in the second half. It was half way through the final quarter before Coburg took the lead and went on to triumph by 17 points.

Best – N Beattie, Pearson, Scanlon (Coburg) and Whitelaw, Halasa, B Lyons (De La Salle).

La Trobe Uni replaced Elsternwick as top side in E Section when they beat Elsternwick by 11 points.

The Australian University Football Championships was being held at Monash University with 14 universities competing.

50 YEARS AGO – 1965 In B Section, Old Scotch 13.18 defeated Kew 11.10 and the win firmed Old Scotch’s top position. It was not the result Kew had hoped for and they were losing touch with the top four. Best – Simpson, Atkinson (4), Sinclair, Campbell, Frew, Birch (Old Scotch) and Finlay (3), Taylor, Parsons, Paterson, Crowe, Joiner (Kew).

A Section coaches were R Allsop (Collegians), R Stabb (Commonwealth Bank), K Roberts (Coburg), G Paul (Melbourne high School Old Boys), R Knott (Old Melburnians), M Considine (Old Paradians), P Rhoden (Old Xaverians), G Murray (Uni High School Old Boys), A Brannan (University Blues), F Dunin (University Blacks).

55 YEARS AGO – 1960 D Section captains were Bill O’Halloran (Caulfield Grammarians), John Douglas (St Kevins Old Boys), Doug Ridley (Old Brighton), J Taylor (St Kilda CBC).

100 games up for John McClure and Les Gordon (Power House), Barry Morrison (Ivanhoe), ‘Chubby’ Proudfoot (Alphington) and Tony Graham (Old Melburnians).

The Victorian team to meet South Australia was Max Rush (Capt), Russell Daff, Max Jobling (Collegians), Leigh Grant (VC) (Power house), Tony Capes, Greg Keogh (Old Xaverians), Bill Colenso, Barry Kerr, Graeme Peck (Old Melburnians), David Cowper, Peter Harkness, Ian Law (Old Scotch), Russell Lewis (Old Paradians), Neil Lewthwarte (Ivanhoe), Ken McCormick (Alphington), Rex Mulligan (Commonwealth Bank), Jock Nelson (MHSOB), Ian Redpath (Geelong), Brian Roet, Trevor Steer (Uni Blacks) and Peter Rush (Uni Blues).

MEGT U19 Premier with John Donohoe @jdonohoe12

SHARKS SURGING, BERNIES EXPERIMENTING, PATTERNS EMERGING! One could be mistaken for thinking this was a completely new St Bernards side. Well it was, they made 15 changes for their clash against Old Melburnians, and after a tough six weeks they had every right to rest their star players for a week that was really never going to be troubling. This week was a 110 point win for last year’s premiers with one of their new faces Tom Madden kicking 7 goals and one of their regular star players Sibbald booting 4. For OMs another tough day on the park after last week’s demolition by the Xavs, Hooper tried his heart out and Monk had a good day too.

Beaumaris are starting to flex their muscles in this competition and this week Blacks were in the firing line. The Sharks didn’t let up one bit after kicking 8 goals to 0 in the first they then piled on 9 goals in the second and away they went to record a huge 20 goal victory. Shaun Evans was a presence up forward booting 5 goals and McLaren 3 while Aridas and Zagni were their best performers. A tough day for the Blacks boys, but McDonald booted 2 and McKenzie was very good also.

Uni Blues were clinical against Old Trinity defeating them by 92 points at Crawford oval.

A 6 goal first term got Uni off to a flyer and they maintained that momentum throughout to record their 3rd victory of the season and sit 6th on the ladder equal on points with Old Xaverians and De La Salle and will no doubt be knocking on the door of a finals appearance in 2015. Osti booted 4 and Beavan 3 while Condon and Cordell were outstanding for the home side.

For Trinity, Hall and Antonio were their best on a tough day for the Trinity boys who have another tough task next week against St Kevins.

Two teams on the improve this season are De La Salle and Old Scotch and they locked horns at Waverley Park this week and it was a tight one at the start with the home team leading by just 3 points at the first break. After quarter time they clicked into gear further booting 5 goals to 2 and were able to push on and win by 6 goals and move to 5th on the ladder equal with the Old Xavs and Uni Blues on 12 points. Krelle was a presence all day for them, he booted 5 and Colak played another blinder. Padbury also kicked 5 in a best on ground display for the gallant Scotch side who haven’t given up in a contest this season.

The Old Xaverians jumped out of the blocks quickly against Skob’s kicking 5.8 to 3.0 in the first term, but such is the talent of this St Kevins team, they responded and piled on 7 goals to 1 in the 2nd and blew the Old Xavs out of the water, leading by 20 points at half time. Clough was dominant and the Old Xavs just couldn’t take him one on one, he booted 6 and Bonacci and Lewis chipped in with 3 each. For the Xavs, Kennedy played well and kicked 4 and Harry Lucas played his best game of the season while Joe Barlow was his ruthless best all day. A tough day at the office for the Red and Black, but the good signs are there. Skobs, move to 5-0 and look set to avenge their loss to Bernards in the Grand Final.

THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2015

MEGT U19 SECTION 2 & 3 with Tom Neuendorf

SECTION TWO It was blowing a gale at Glen Huntly Oval on Saturday afternoon, a see-sawing affair that observed 21 out of 22 goals kicked to one end of the ground. When Caulfield Grammar headed into the three quarter time huddle you just wondered whether their 18-point lead would be enough to hold off the Roys. Fitzroy quickly took the ascendency with the wind at their back, wrestling the momentum their way in the blink of an eye booting the final six goals of the game to run out comfortable 21-point winners. Will Symons was best afield for the winners, whilst for the losers James Kellock hit the scoreboard to record four goals in an impressive display of goal kicking.

Whitefriars got back on the winners list at Chelsworth Park on Saturday. In another match of momentum swings, Ivanhoe Grammar fought back from 28-points down at quarter time to head into the half time break with an 8-point buffer. It will be of slight concern for Whitefriars that for two weeks in a row they have been held scoreless in a quarter, as these lapses could be costly at the pointy end of the season. After a low scoring arm wrestle in the third quarter the Friars kicked away in the last quarter to record a 23-point win. Angus Hands was a focal point in the forward-line for the winners, kicking four majors.

SECTION THREE Old Camberwell finally got on the winners list in 2015 beating cellar dwellers St Bernards by 37-points at Gordon Barnard Reserve on Saturday. It wasn’t all one-way traffic, with the Snow Dogs putting up a heck of a fight for the first three quarters only to get overrun in the last.

Alex Bongiorno continued his stellar start to the season kicking six majors for the victors, whilst Daniel Yacoub tried hard for St Bernards.

It was a good old-fashioned shootout at Fearon Reserve between Williamstown and Hampton Rovers. Jake Slee and Thomas Nicholls had a goalkicking display reminiscent of Paul Salmon and Gary Ablett, kicking six and seven goals respectively for their opposing teams. It was Williamstown who came out on top at the final siren, with spectators leaving thoroughly entertained in the 34-point win.

In other matches, a wasteful Old Carey outfit was comfortable 21-point winners against Ormond, and Old Geelong put on a scintillating display of offensive football to defeat Old Xaverians by 73 points.

In other matches, Parkdale defeated Old Brighton by 55-points, Mazenod defeated Collegians by 37-points, and Marcellin were too good for St Bedes/Mentone, running out 36-point victors.

UMPIRES CORNER

@VAFAUA

UMPIRES ROUND It’s hard to believe that by the end of today, we will have completed a third of the home and away season, time sure flies when you’re having fun.

Today is Puma VAFA Umpires round and we welcome Puma as our new footwear partner. We look forward to seeing our guys and girls running around in their new boots shortly. We would also like to thank our other major partners, LEDified and Personal Mortgage Managers for your ongoing support.

As part of Umpires round, we were honoured to have Ben Ryan, Shane McInerney, Rob Haala, Jason Moore and Jason Venkataya from the AFL at training giving valuable insight to the group.

As today is Umpires Round the spotlight is on us, which is against everything we set out to do. So let’s enjoy the moment, but when it comes time to get down to business, just blend into the game.

STEVE PIPERNO (From the VAFA to the AFL) In round one, we highlighted the achievements of our members who have gone onto higher competitions this year. One of these was Steve Piperno, who this year has been elevated to the AFL Goal Umpires Panel. Steve still has lots of mates down at the VAFAUA and has kindly shared his story with Umpires Corner.

In 2006, I joined the VFL where there are greater expectations on fitness, performance and professionalism and where you quickly realise that umpiring has the potential to become a career, as well as a hobby. Over the 9 years I spent in the VFL, I continued to learn from my experienced coaches and peers, developed a strong work ethic, and as I progressed, my passion for umpiring grew along with my desire to make the AFL. Over this journey, I was fortunate enough to be selected for numerous grand finals, and in December 2014, I received the phone call from the AFL offering me a contract, fulfilling a dream I worked so hard to achieve.

My AFL experience to date has been incredible. The expectations have intensified even further and there is a real buzz about being part of an elite group of umpires. My first match was an absolute thrill, and while it is still just a game of footy, it is on a much bigger and louder stage, a novelty that will never wear off.

I still try to visit the VAFA from time to time to catch up with my old friends. Despite not having umpired there for 10 years, I still regularly keep in touch with many of the group, which proves how great of an umpiring group it is and how profound an impact the VAFA had on my umpiring career.

-Steve Piperno

Back in June 2003, after having a chance conversation with a couple of mates in high school, I decided to give umpiring a go and join them for a training session at Elsternwick Park. As a very shy 15 year old, I was taken under the wing by Shane Herbert, Andrew Barnes, Bernie Jephson and Kev ‘Chillie’ Segota, most of whom are still involved in shaping the future of young umpires coming through the ranks today. I have fond memories of my time in the VAFA, where I learned and developed as an umpire from those around me, whilst enjoying the social aspect of the group. In 2005, I was extremely privileged to be appointed to the A Section Grand Final, which to this day is still one of my most cherished memories in umpiring due to the buzz and atmosphere surrounding the match.

MAZENOD WINS BIG The Nodders recorded the biggest win of round five, thumping La Trobe by 125 points.

La Trobe never looked like recovering after an eight goal blitz by Mazenod in the first quarter.

Jacob Murdock booted six majors taking his tally to 19 for the season.

St Bernards earned a hard fought win against Uni Blues by 38 points. Angus Carey kicked two goals and William Baird one to steer their team to victory. Edward Behrens tried hard all day for the Blues with plenty of touches but it was all in vain.

Williamstown caused an upset win over Parkside 94 to 46. James Kilpatrick and Jack Mattsson kicked four goals each while Jack Blokkeerus was solid around the ground to lead Williamstown to victory.

Meanwhile, UHS-VU Flemington convincingly beat Old Paradians by ten goals.

After quarter time it was one way traffic with Old Paradians only registering one goal in the final 3 quarters.

Milton Morise and Finn Devlin both had day outs, kicking three goals each.

U19 SECTION 4

DELLE-VERGINI AGAIN UNSTOPPABLE FOR THE BLUES It wasn’t an upset win by any means, but the margin that De La Salle beat Therry Penola by last weekend is sure to send a message to the rest of the competition.

De La kicked 13 unanswered goals after half time to romp to a 119 point victory. Patrick Cook and Jack Hanley booted four goals each, while Anthony De Luca was instrumental around the ground for De La. Old Haileyburians registered their first win of the year by 57 points over Melbourne High.

Jack Munro and Aaron Toy kicked 4 and 3 goals respectively to lift their side to the win.

Ashan Wijayakumara was best on ground for Melbourne High with five goals, but it was enough as his team remains winless for the year.

Northern Blues had a convincing win over Parkdale 120 to 66. Delle-Vergini was again in 54

the goals for the Blues with six majors. It seems like teams may have to play three defenders on him if they are to stop his influence.

Leading by only two points at the main break, St Kevins ran out winners over Oakleigh with a ten goal to zero second half.

Thomas Sanders was best for St Kevins with three goals.

In the other two games, Peninsula beat Beaumaris to remain undefeated while Monash Blues inflicted Point Cook’s fifth straight loss.

UNDER 19 Section 4 Northern Blues v Oakleigh Beaumaris v Point Cook Monash Blues v MHSOB Therry Penola v Parkdale Peninsula v De La Salle St Kevins v Old Haileyburians

XAVERIANS REIGN SUPREME …

WHO WILL CHALLENGE? One third of the way through the season, the Section 1 four looks settled whereas in Section 2, positions 2 to 5 seem to be changing weekly. Whilst Old Xaverians continue to be a thorn in the side of all Club XVIII opposition they come up against, the question is who will challenge? Hawthorn and La Trobe look most likely, but Richmond Central have won two flags in a row and can’t be ruled out. St Francis Xavier find themselves in a similar position hence those with Xavier in the title reigning supreme for the time being. Albert Park are next in line only a game ahead of a glut of sides at 3-2.

REVIEW

SECTION 2 Melbourne High School Old Boys outplayed West Brunswick who trailed throughout the match before losing by thirty six points. “Unicorn” sharpshooter, Louis Meyer starred for the winners with six goals.

Ormond and University High School/ V.U. staged an entertaining game, which ended with Ormond victorious by six points. The visitors all but snatched victory but were again let down by errant kicking, when accuracy could have won them the game.

Best for Ormond were: Sean O’Sullivan, Jason McDonald and Tim Ashford. For University High School/ V.U. Jordan, Ahmet, Ahmed Musa and Eliott Combe were best.

SECTION 1 Last Saturday morning on Como Park, Prahran/ Assumption and La Trobe University played the most closely contested match of the Round. The visiting “Boys from Bundoora” emerged victorious by the minimum margin after erasing the “Two Blue’s” nineteen point three quarter time lead. The win has consolidated La Trobe’s position in the top four whereas their loss has made the Prahran/ Assumption task to play in the 2015 final series very difficult.

Kew led early against St Francis Xavier, whose errant kicking in the second and third quarters enabled Kew to remain competitive. Superior fitness enabled the undefeated leaders to build their lead to fifty five points by game’s end. David Daparin with five goals was again prominent for the “Beaconsfield Boys”.

After a low scoring opening quarter, Richmond Central gradually took control of their match against “cellar dweller” North Old Boy’s / St Patrick’s and won in fine style by seventy six points. I was impressed by the endeavour shown by all players in the Ivanhoe versus Old Xaverians match which featured many physical clashes as all players strove to control the ball. The Xaverian depth of talent and their greater match fitness, saw the undefeated leaders firmly in control as the game progressed.

Their winning margin was seventy four points, which belied a lot of early Ivanhoe endeavour.

Matthew Green kicked five goals for the winners.

For the victors, Captain, Beau Coyle (four goals) was again among the best players.

Hawthorn had a day out against Old Geelong, who never seriously challenged “The Spartans”. Their one hundred and fifty eight point win on the big ground will greatly aid the Hawthorn challenge on Sportscover Arena in August. Leading goal scorer, John Farah led the Hawthorn scoring with ten goals.

58

Albert Park rose from fourth to second through their eighty five point win over Westbourne Grammarians who managed a solitary behind for the first three quarters.

PREVIEW SECTION 1 Hawthorn should win against Ivanhoe, who will provide spirited opposition especially early in the match. I doubt that Ivanhoe defenders will be able to negate the multi pronged Hawthorn attack throughout the game especially with the “Spartan” midfielders continually kicking the ball forward.

In a potential final preview, Richmond Central play at La Trobe University, where the big ground will surely test “The Snake’s” match fitness. The bucolic Bundoora surroundings will prove testing for the visitors who should be held to a losing score.

THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2015

Prahran/ Assumption have the opportunity to move up the ladder when they meet North Old Boys/ St Patrick’s on the Gillon Oval today.

Although neither side will bring impressive 2015 form to this game, I do favour Prahran/ Assumption to win because their leadership group does possess more talent than does that of their opposition. Old Geelong, who have not been impressive this season meet undefeated leaders, Old Xaverians on Stradbroke Park. Based on 2015 performances, I forecast another convincing victory for Old Xaverians.

SECTION 2 Today’s Round is a historical one because all four games are scheduled for 9.20 a.m. starts. This is the first time all matches in any Section have been scheduled for 9.20am. I think 1920 was the last occasion when all four V.F.L. games were played in the morning. This was to allow football people to welcome the Prince of Wales in the afternoon.

I suspect readers never thought they would find footy trivia like that in this column!

Albert Park, should possess enough talent to answer any challenge presented by Ormond and I expect them to win and hold second place.

Kew meet Melbourne High School who defeated Kew in their last meeting (the 2014 Semi Final). I suspect each team has improved this season and each is a serious final four contender again. At home I select Kew to win narrowly.

University High School/ V.U. impressed at Ormond last week and today I select them to win for the first time this season because their opposition Westbourne Grammarians has struggled to meet the standard of their opponents. While St Francis Xavier will keep their winning run intact when they travel to West Brunswick SECTION 1 La Trobe Uni v Richmond Central Old Xaverians v Old Geelong NOB/St Pat’s v Prahran Assumption Hawthorn v Ivanhoe
