INCREASING DOLLARS MAKES SENSE In administering a VAFA club, there are so many aspects that the leaders need to manage in order to have a successful club. The aspect on show is the weekly matches that your club plays. The amount of volunteers required on match day is evident for all to see. However if we don’t get the finances right there will not be any matches played. Fund raising is critical to the survival of all clubs.

Each club has their own player subscriptions, which contribute to the income, however, it is only a small percentage of the revenue required for a club to exist. In our clubs this ranges from 10-30% of the total income a club receives. Clubs therefore have to be imaginative and resource alternative income streams.

Blair O’Hara is the VAFA General Manager of Commercial Operations and his charter is to not only increase revenue to the VAFA, which in turn keeps affiliation fees manageable, but to also assist our clubs by exposing them to various commercial opportunities. Over the last two Wednesdays, Blair has conducted commercial workshops with club representatives from Divisions 1 – 4. These sessions focussed on commercial opportunities and investigating ways that will assist them raise revenue. Next Wednesday will be the Premier B and C clubs with the Premier clubs to follow.

The workshops have focused on an analysis of sponsorship proposals and how to best prepare a document that will better illustrate to potential sponsors the value of making an investment into the football club. What we have discovered so far is most proposals focus exclusively on the club. However, it is important that the club demonstrates that it understands the needs of

the business and provides an opportunity for the business to connect with the club, its players and members in an appropriate and meaningful way.

The second component of the workshop is to explore how to establish or improve membership programs with e-commerce. The VAFA are currently developing a membership offer that is planned for launch at the Big V function in August. We are exploring how the benefits of our partners can be shared with clubs to make the local club membership package more attractive to members of club communities. The VAFA partner with technology provider, ClubData, to provide a low-cost and effective e-commerce solution. We provided a demonstration on how to set-up the store and items for purchase, as well as how to promote it at club level. There were many who had not seen this platform before but were keen to get it started at their clubs.

The workshops thus far have allowed the VAFA to have an open and interactive forum for clubs to put forward their commercial and financial challenges as well as share notes on what things are working well. One club president asserted that ‘although we might fight like hell on the field, it is important that we work together off the field’.

Being financially stable creates an environment whereby clubs can continue to work on building a strong and positive culture, as well as allowing the football staff and players to focus on being the best team they can be. Out of the workshops, the VAFA hope to have gained further insight into the commercial needs of clubs and can shape our initiatives to best serve those requirements.

IGNORING THE OBVIOUS Let’s get something straight. Old Xavs are not the side they were last year. When you consider that 12 of their premiership 22 didn’t play last week, this should be obvious for all to see. We all marvel at their depth, however only three of their reserves premiership 22 played in the senior team last week. So that means they are playing youth.

Nothing wrong with that. Nevertheless, Xavs are 1-4 and have a huge match at Toorak Park today against a St Bernard’s team that has won their last four. It would be silly to write off Old Xavs at any point in the season, but a loss today against St Bernard’s will have a few tongues wagging.

Mind you there are other clubs with bigger issues.

St Bedes/Mentone Tigers have continued their recent early season jitters with their own 1-4 start. They have lost talisman Luke ‘Juice’ Wintle to retirement – more on Juice later – and are yet to win at home. This is something they should rectify today against struggling Old Brighton. Last week I said Old Brighton’s trajectory appeared to be on an upward curve, however, Beaumaris put that theory to the sword. The Tonners are on target to follow the same path that Caulfield did in 2012.

Return to Premier off a Premier B flag, only to struggle through a forgettable season. I hope I am wrong, because no one likes seeing a club go from such a high to such a low in so short a time.

In front of one of the largest home and away crowds in recent memory, Old Scotch defeated Old Xaverians for the first time since round 3, 2012. The manner of the Cardinal’s two losses to their rivals in 2013 would have been etched in their collective memories and winning this match would go part way to rectifying that wrong. Old Scotch looked on from the start, moving the ball quickly and with authority through the middle of the ground. Ed Barlow was playing his best game for the Cardinals but importantly everyone else was a contributor too. Matt Seed’s tacking pressure in the forward half was a standout and Evgeni Routman has provided an extra creative option at half forward too. Xavs were down a rotation by not having Denis Symeopoulos for the first half due to a migrane, and when Cam Purss broke his nose and then tried to comeback only 2

@ Lennytalk to do his calf, Xavs were going to be up against it. Nevertheless they rallied in the third to cut the margin heading into the last. Both sides had their chances, Scotch the more wasteful of the two. A tense period ensued before a brace of Watts goals and van den Broek set shot gave the Cardinals the breathing space they needed to enjoy an important win.

University Blacks returned to the winners list as they comfortably handled the visiting De La Salle.

Blacks piled on six goals to none in the opening term and in Premier, you cannot give any team a start like this, particularly a top team like Blacks on their home deck. De La’s intensity that was evident last week had completely evaporated and skill errors, resulting in turn overs were a common theme. De La Salle controlled the early stages of the third but wasted three chances in a row. Blacks went to the other end to score against the flow of play to deflate any hopes of a De La revival. Blacks continued to assert themselves on the contest for the remainder of the match, holding the visitors to two goals, as Slabbert (3) and Robbins (3) were the major contributors.

Collegians ability to hit the scoreboard has rightly been questioned over the past month however, last week against Old Trinity, those concerns were laid to rest. The undefeated Old Trinity were wasteful in the opening exchanges, as they had 20 inside 50’s in the first term for a return of just 2.7. Collegians having elected to kick into the breeze in the first, made the best use of it when they had it at their backs in the second. However, like Old Trinity the Lions were wasteful kicking 6.8 for the term. The OT’s responded in third to reduce the deficit to just four points. Gaining an early break in the last Old Trinity’s winning run looked set to continue before Collegians came again to establish a game winning lead. Collegians were well served by Billy Burstin, whose five goals helped the home side to kick more than 13 goals for the first time since round 1. They won that day too, showing that if Collegians can hit the scoreboard, then they are a difficult prospect.

Good starts are what it is about if you are to worry St Bernard’s on their home turf. St Bedes/ Mentone kicked two of the first three goals of the game, before St Bernard’s kicked six of the next seven to establish a game winning lead.

Nick Cooke and Luke Madden both booted three goals and Michael Angel is making a name for himself in defence. Both sides struggled to get any flow into their games in the second half, but Tom Garside, Chris Mangoni (2) and Tim Doherty (3) kept running for the Tigers. An already young side’s average age has dropped again at the news that Luke Wintle has played his last game. Juice has been a man mountain for the Tigers for over a decade. Everyone at the club recognise his contribution to the Tigers and all will understand that whilst he got back this year for club game number 300, the prospect of 10-12 more was too much to consider. Congratulations Juice on a marvelous VAFA career.

Every Premier club last weekend kicked more behinds than goals but the most profligate of the lot were the Sharks in their match up at Old

Brighton. The seabreeze at the Beach Oval plays a part, but the 55 point win could have been much more if Beaumaris had their kicking boots on.

Beaumaris’ scoring power should be recognised, but their defence was equally responsible for thwarting any Tonners attack. They restricted OB to two goals for the first half and held them goalless when the game was done in the last. After the rude shock of an Old Trinity hiding, Beauy are back on track. Jackson Ward has continued to develop into the key midfielder the Sharks had hoped for and Matt Petering is just a class act. Unfortunately for Old Brighton it’s the same names in the best each week. They need an improved output from players 12-22 in the match day squad if they are to get over the line soon.

FIELD(S) OF DREAMS Caulfield Grammarians outrun Old Carey to keep their top four hopes alive; AJAX just keep out a mighty Old Melburnians; Fitzroy account for Mazenod; St Kevins solidify their top four spot with a big win over Old Ivanhoe and University Blues continue their dominance of the competition in thrashing Old Haileybury.

Glen Huntly Oval laid the scene for a clash between Caulfield Grammarians and Old Carey. In one of their best wins for three seasons, Caulfield took the four points and steadied the ship back towards a top four campaign. Old Carey lose touch with the top two, but remain in the top four for now. Caulfield jumped first, taking a two-goal lead into the first break. Carey squared the ledger in the second term, adding six goals straight to the scoreboard with the wind, however Caulfield managed four, to leave it a point the difference at the long break. However, Caulfield’s four goals into the wind during the second quarter proved to be an indication of what they had in store for their rivals, as they dominated the third term, with five goals to Carey’s two behinds. The Panthers were still in the game at the last break, with the benefit of the wind in the last term. Coach Glenn Cox reiterated this to his players in the huddle, and injected some run onto the wings and flanks in an attempt to capitalise. Though, Caulfield were too strong, kicking the first two of the quarter and shutting down the Panthers, who’s three goals in the term weren’t enough to rein back their own five majors, which underpinned the ‘Fields 43 point win. Both sides face tough fixtures today, as Carey host SKOB at home, and Caulfield travel to the Uni Blues’ Fortress.

AJAX hosted Old Melburnians at Gary Smorgon Oval, in a game that most would have expected AJAX to take out comfortably. The Jackers had three wins to Melburnian’s one, however, at the battle of Albert Park it was Melburnians who drew first blood. Hitting the scoreboard early, and kicking well, OMs took a quarter time lead of three points. The Jackers sprang out of the blocks in the second term, scoring more productively into the 4

wind than with it, as would be a theme for both sides all day, to find themselves ten points up at the main break. The premiership quarter saw Melburnians outscore AJAX, to trail by only two points into the last break, to set up an enticing final quarter battle. Melburnians looked set to cause an upset, and steer their season back on track after scoring the first goal of the last stanza, but AJAX proved why they’re top four candidates this year as Jake Lew and David Fayman kicked the home team to victory. Both players finished the game with five majors each, Lew proving the state selectors correct for his inclusion in the under 23 squad alongside team mate Josh Ludski who was classy on the day. For the visitors, Beck and Playfair each dobbed two goals for the day, while De Steiger was good value. Steinberg of AJAX was the principle playmaker for the day. Today AJAX take on Fitzroy, which could define the victor’s top four prospects for the season, while Melburnians desperately need a win against an equally hapless Old Ivanhoe.

Fitzroy pulled themselves back into finals calculations, with a comfortable win over Mazenod at Central Reserve. The Roys blew Mazenod out of the water in the first term, with Bisetto nabbing two goals and Ruckman Will Pickering adding one off his own ruckwork, to construct a six term for the away side. Mazenod added only two points to the scoreboard, the margin made somewhat less formidable by a strong breeze favouring the Roys’ end. Mazenod made the most of that breeze in the second term with four goals, but were unable to pin back their opponents who still managed one major to enjoy a 22 point half time lead. Fitzroy won the third term by two points, before running away with five goals in the last term to stitch the game up. Pickering starred with five majors for the day and some quality ruck work for the Roys, while Bisetto’s four and Brown’s dominance around the ground was too much for the likes of Johnson and Smith, who were gutsy for the home side.

game for both sides, while Mazenod take on Old Haileybury.

St Kevins travelled to Chelsworth Park to face Old Ivanhoe and SKOB dominated the home side from the outset. SKOB won the first two quarters by two and four goals respectively, before setting up a resounding victory in the third quarter with five goals five to the ‘Hoes one major. St Kevins kept their foot on the accelerator in the last, adding six more majors to the scoreboard while Old Ivanhoe managed three in their highest scoring quarter of the game. It was the usual suspects up forward for SKOB that did the damage, with Jason Salopek scoring four majors, Karageorgiou adding four, and Steven Salopek, Kanakis, Edgar and Parkes nabbing two each; converting class midfield usage

by Dowd, Wood, Ring, and Aughton. Siciliano troubled the scorers with two majors for the home side, while Groth, Vella and Paine were brave around the ground in a game that was beyond them early. Old Ivanhoe need to win to advance out of the bottom rungs against Old Melburnians

PREMIER B

Old Haileybury hosted University Blues at Princes Park in Caulfield, but by then end of the day hosts probably wished they could uninvited their guests. The Blues dominated from the first bounce, winning every quarter and dominating play around the ground. Again, slightly wayward kicking by the Blues may have flattered their rivals.

A 95 point win, though, means none of the Blues faithful will be too worried, as the season charges along, and the Blues share top spot with St Kevins.

Haileybury have a chance at redemption today in a winnable game against Mazenod, while Uni Blues have the chance to continue their rampaging season against Caulfield at home.

EAGLES SOAR TO NEW HEIGHTS A third of the way through the season and we are and none the wiser as to who will be the real deal this year. A common theme has begun to emerge and it has me baffled. On a number of occasions this year, teams have appeared to get a run on, stringing together comprehensive victories, before being toppled by lower-ranked opponents.

This week PEGS were the victims. Is complacency starting to creep in? Or is it purely a mentality that it’s going to ‘just happen?’ Perhaps injuries have taken their toll. Here’s hoping that over the next couple of months the picture becomes clearer.

At this stage Marcellin have been the only team capable of maintaining that winning form.

In the first local derby for the season, Oakleigh made it four consecutive wins, with a 29 point victory over old foe Ormond. The Krushers took full advantage of a strong breeze favoring the southern end opening up a five goal quarter time lead. However it was their ability to minimize the damage inflicted by their hosts in the second term, which had a bearing on the outcome of the match. As Ormond booted five with the breeze, Oakleigh responded with five of their own. Aaron Cloke proved to be a handful up forward kicking six for the day, while Hard and Valentini also made valuable contributions. Blackburn and Hemming did their best to inspire the home side in the second half and break the deadlock, but it was to no avail. At the start of final term, Paisley and Cleary got on top in the middle, paving way for an Oakleigh blitz. To Ormond’s credit they kicked four unanswered goals to finish the game, but they’d left their run too late.

Once again Monash showed why they are the least scored against team in Premier C, restricting the Hampton Rovers to 46, as they clung on by eight points in another low scoring affair. There must be something about Frearson Oval that produces such low scoring encounters. The Blues had their noses in front for the whole afternoon, despite the Rovers challenging in each quarter.

Cosgriff was the chief destroyer up forward for the Blues kicking four goals, while Traegar-Haig was the only multiple goal kicker for the Rovers. Down 6

by 16 points at the final change, the Rovers rallied late in the final term kicking three goals to one, with Ting getting off the leash, but it was in vain.

Despite setting the pace in the early stages of the year, the Rovers have now endured three straight losses.

The boys down at Gerry Green Reserve have claimed another big scalp to record their second win for the year, this time defeating the inform PEGS, by 18 points. The final margin could’ve been far worse, if not for some Parkdale inaccuracy – the Vultures had 32 scoring shots to PEGS’ 19. The contest was fierce early as the Vultures stalked their prey, not allowing them any clear possessions.

Papatsanis was lively up forward, while Boland was making his presence felt. In the first half both sides went goal for goal, but it was the Vultures who held a narrow lead at half time. PEGS were able to break the shackles in the third and get their running game going, with Livori and Pound playing an integral role. With the wind behind their backs the home side regrouped and outran their opponents in the final term, kicking four goals to one. Platt and Sullivan were instrumental in the final quarter resurgence.

The Eagles have usurped top spot following their 143 point trouncing of the previously first placed Peninsula. In what was touted as one of the matches of the round, an anticlimactic game of football ensued. Trailing by five majors at the main break Peninsula Coach Claringbold called upon his players for a lift, ‘no more talk, time for action,’ he instructed. However in stark contrast to Claringbold’s plea, inaction was the story of the second half for the Pirates. With a home ground advantage and an air of confidence behind of them, the Eagles went on the attack. In the second half they sliced through the Pirates defence like a PREMIER C — TIPS IN BOLD (YEARS TOTAL 19 / 63%) Parkdale v Old Camberwell PEGS v Ormond Peninsula v Monash Banyule v Marcellin Oakleigh v Hampton Rovers

hot knife through butter, piling on 20 goals to 2.

McPherson (7), Gasparini (4) and Beaini (4) did the bulk of the damage up forward, while Clark and Stainforth were gallant in defeat.

Old Camberwell overcame a tight first half battle against Banyule, producing a promising second half display to set up a 33 point victory. For much of the day it was a question of who could negate the impact of the other team’s forward line. In the first half McDonald (4) and Italia (4) kept Banyule in the contest, while at the other end De Sanctis (5) and Campbell (4) did their best to spark the Wellers. One point adrift at half time, the Wellers responded in style with six goals in the premiership quarter quelling any hopes the Bears had of a victory. Hay and Barclay tried to lift the spirits of the home side, but the odds were stacked against them, as Old Camberwell’s spread of goal kickers took its toll. Miriklis and Deev were solid performers for the Wellers. Old Camberwell’s form

PREMIER C

Parkdale are very good on their home deck and I think they’ll be too strong for the Wellers, while PEGS back on their familiar surrounds will be took quick and skilful for Ormond. Peninsula will be determined to respond following their heavy defeat, however I think Monash have been building towards something special and will win. Marcellin have been the most consistent performer this year, and they’ll have too much potency up forward for the Bears. The last match has two teams on vastly different trends at the moment, and I expect Oakleigh to make it five on the trot, potentially sending the Rovers further down the ladder.

FOR THE LOVE OF THE GAME

BIG V REP SQUADS With the Queen’s Birthday weekend fast approaching it means that so too is the VAFA’s representative program. This week both senior and under 23 squads were released at vafa.com. au. You can see the full list of names for each squad below. In total 29 clubs were represented across five sections in the under 23 squad and 13 clubs from Premier and Premier B were represented in the senior squad. The VAFA U23 side travels to Hobart to take on the AAFC U23 Tasmanian side on the Saturday of the Queen’s Birthday weekend, whilst the senior side will fly to Brisbane on the Saturday for their Sunday match against AFL Queensland on the Sunday.

There are some big names that are not in the squad and this is due to their unavailability. The coaches, Simon Lethlean (senior) and Andrew Hayes (U23) are both back to keep their 100% winning records in tact.

LADIES LUNCHES FINAL REPORT CARD As mentioned a couple of weeks ago, Many clubs held their ladies lunches last weekend as they were not at home on Mothers Day. Caulfield Grammarians hosted Australian 800m runner Kelly Hetherington a week after Kelly had entertained the Hampton Rovers lunch. A guest who attended both lunches was reluctant to say who got the better insight into the world of athletics that Kelly is involved in, but did tell us that the formats were completely different.

At the Rovers lunch, Kelly gave a talk on her career to date, whilst at Caulfield’s lunch it was more a Q&A session. We hope another VAFA club will be able to secure Kelly after she comes back from what we hope is a successful World Championships in Moscow later this year.

LOVE THE GAME FORFOR THETHE LOVE OFOF THE GAME

HAWTHORN’S NEW NUMBER 1 TICKET HOLDER Hawthorn Amateur FC pulled off an exciting initiative by gaining the services of Member for Hawthorn Ted Baillieu as its number 1 ticket holder. Mr Baillieu gets asked to do a lot of things, but he has made it a priority to become a number 1 member to support Amateur footy in the area.

Hawthorn last week hosted Mr Baillieu (pictured with Hawthorn President David Clancey) at their lunch and he was delighted to stay on and see the Hawks record an 82-point win. It raises the question of who else of notoriety holds the number 1 ticket at each of the VAFA clubs. Let us know your number 1 ticket holder by emailing andrew@vafa.com.au.

LONG TIME BETWEEN DRINKS Last week Michael Sholly wrote about the beauty of the promotion and relegation system and how a club can often drop a section one year to re-establish a winning culture at the club.

Well sometimes, unfortunately for those clubs involved, that is not how it all works out. This weekend we have a couple of matches where it will be the first time in sometime since the two clubs have been able to share a post match drink and reflect on the action that has taken place that day. In Division 1, North Old Boys-St Patrick’s will host Therry Penola in a home and away fixture for the first time since 2002. That year both sides were struggling in B Grade as Therry finished last and NOBs finished 7th. NOBs had two more

years of finishing 7th before being relegated to C Grade, that same season Therry Penola was also relegated from C meaning the clubs haven’t had a chance to meet since then. However all of this is superseded by the Elsternwick’s visit to Old Paradians. The two clubs last shared a post match yarn in 1953 in B Section. That year Old Paradians lost the Grand Final to Kew by 26 points and Elsternwick were relegated with just two wins for the year. Old Paradians were on an upward trajectory to become the VAFA powerhouse club. They went on to claim six A Section premierships in the 1960’s. Elsterwick played finals in C Section in 1954-5 before their slow recession back through the grades.

THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2014

LOCAL FOOTBALLERS HELPING THE COMMUNITY Residents of local aged care facility Warrawee Community were the beneficiaries of a recent garden makeover courtesy of the Caulfield Grammarians Football Club. Warrawee is a Glen Eira Council Residential facility located in Centre Road, East Bentleigh and cares for 90 residents. The garden courtyard had become overgrown but after the makeover by the local footballers, the residents now have an attractive and modern outdoor garden setting which they are able to enjoy. The initiative is part of the Club’s Leadership Development program in which players take on a range of projects within the community. Warrawee was selected as a worthy project by Club Captain Ben Price and CGFC Community Services leader Chris Hammond. A qualified landscape gardener, Ben scoped the project, procured the materials and equipment and provided instructions to the enthusiastic footballers and part time gardeners. It was a different kind of Sunday morning rehab for the players but one which they enjoyed nevertheless. Once the job was finished the CGFC put on a BBQ for the happy residents in the upgraded surrounds.

Warrawee Lifestyle Program Manager Audrey Bermingham commented “the courtyard is

THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2014

now a place where we want to and are able to spend time.

We are excitedly waiting for the aromas from the gardenia’s.

A wonderful sensory experience to look forward to. Thank you each and everyone involved”. Peter Jones, Director of Community Services, Glen Eira Council also added his appreciation “thanks for the great work done and I would appreciate it if you could pass on my thanks to all involved in the garden make-over at Warrawee. The feedback I have received has been very positive. I understand that you and the footballers all worked very hard and have achieved a wonderful result. The garden will be enjoyed for many years to come as it grows into the sensory delight as designed by Ben. We would love to work with you again in the future.”

VAFA CONGRATULATES YOU IN REACHING THE MILESTONE

300

Congratulations to Beaumaris’ MARK ENSOR – “Dougie” reached this magnificent milestone whilst achieving the Club Record for the most VAFA games. Mark commenced in the U19’s (five games) and played his first senior game in 1998.

He was a member of two Senior Premiership sides (2003 and 2010) and played in three other Senior grand finals. Dougie was our Senior Club captain in 2007 and vice captain in 5 other seasons, and won the Senior Best & Fairest in 2005. An excellent defender, Dougie won the Club best defender award in 2003, 2007 and 2008, was a member of the VAFA Representative team in 2005, and also a member of the VAFA Team of the Year on four occasions. Well done Mark and thank you for your substantial contribution to the Sharks.

200

Congratulations to Ivanhoe’s SEBASTIAN CONLEY – “Baz” has been in vintage form this season in the Hoes’ undefeated Reserves team and his efforts in defense during his 200th game last Saturday were inspirational. Baz, who is originally from King Island, joined the Hoes from Assumption College in 1999 when the club formed an alliance with the school. He was honoured with the No.1 jumper and has worn it with pride ever since.

200

Congratulations to Old Brighton’s ANDREW EDGE – Andrew became the latest Old Brighton Life Member last week, playing his 200th game for the Tonners. Andrew was hoping to celebrate his milestone game with a win over Beaumaris, where he began his VAFA career, but the Sharks were too good. Edgy played his usually reliable game in defence, thumping the ball clear with golden fists whenever possible, and doing his best to organise and support those around him.

Well done!

150

Congratulations to North Brunswick’s ROBERT SANTECROCE - A talented on-baller and half back, Robbie’s blinding skill is a sight to behold. A well respected player and person around the football club, he has finished second in the B & F no less than five times, and is one of the true leaders at the Club. We hope there are many more games in store for you Robbie.

150

Congratulations to De La Salle’s DAVID LOWE – David played his first Senior game in 2005 and was captain from 2009 to 2013. In 2009 he tied for the Woodrow Medal with teammate Matt Fieldsend, in 2010 he was Club Champion and runner up in 2009 and 2008. David also represented the VAFA at U19, U23 and Senior level. He is the son of Premiership captain Mark Lowe and older brother of Reserves captain Simon.

150

THERRY PENOLA THREE-PEAT Having convincingly knocked off Williamstown CYMS and Bulleen Templestowe in rounds prior, Therry Penola added Yarra Valley to their list of 100+ point victories in as many weeks. The Lions remain undefeated in Division 1 and are one of four senior teams in the VAFA to feel the pain of a loss in 2014. Their goal kicking duo, the Bannister brothers Corey and Jarrod, have been the catalysts of this overwhelming superiority with a total of 68 goals between them. A percentage of 251 tells the story of their dominance thus far. Elsewhere, Williamstown put previous torment behind them, redeeming both hearty and surprising loses to beat second placed NOBS/St Pats by 17-points.

Last year’s Division 2 Grand Final rematch between Therry Penola and Yarra Valley was all one way as the Lions broke down the Bushrangers from the outset. With five goals to none in the first term, the early warning signs became reality as the margin reached beyond six goals. A quarter and 10 goals later, Therry Penola was set to break the century mark once again as they sat comfortably ahead by 86-points. The final margin stretched to 121 by the final siren. Corey Bannister finished with seven goals while Scott Day chipped in with four. Russell Yeo kicked an admirable 5 goals in the defeat.

While Therry sit two games clear at the top, second and third are now separated by just 11% after Williamstown closed the gap on NOBS/St Pats in the match of the round. The NoOBs got an early jump on the home side, taking advantage of the breeze kicking six goals and breaking away to a 21-point lead. The CY’s returned the favour in the second, slotting three of their own and keeping the opposition goalless to lead by a solitary point at halftime. The two sides went goal for goal in the third, ending with four apiece as the margin remained at 1-point. Matt Keown bagged the opener in the final term for the visitors but the home side kicked the next four majors to open the gap to eventual victory. Jack Gray proved himself worthy selection in the VAFA U-23’s with nine goals for the victors and he proved to be the 16

difference in a close contest.

Old Geelong snatched victory from the jaws of defeat against MHSOB, who played out of their skin to push the OG’s to their limit at Como Park.

Melbourne High School Old Boys got off to another slow start, gifting Old Geelong an 11-point lead at quarter time, but quickly reversed the deficit in the second with six goals for the term. The visitors held onto an 11-point margin heading into the final change, only for Old Geelong to step up and steal the victory in the last. The Unicorns’ gallantry ended in heartache as the OG’s snuck home to win by 5-points. Callum Wood was best on ground for Old Geelong with six crucial goals.

Prahran Assumption buried Whitefriars at Toorak Park by 87-points, leaving the Friars closer to relegation than finals territory. Last year, Whitefriars missed finals after being dropped to fifth by Prahran Assumption in the last game of the season. This year, the Two Blues have again scuttled the Friars with potentially more severe consequences. It was Whitefriars’ fourth loss and they are one game out of the relegation places.

With seven goals in the opening term, Prahran Assumption was on song, and they would continue this for the remainder of the game.

Whitefriars simply could not keep up with the highflying, attacking nature of the Two Blues. Matt Wall was best on ground in Prahran Assumption’s 87-point victory with six of the total 24 goals kicked, while John Grigg played his part with five.

Old Mentonians evened their season at 3-3 with an important victory over Bulleen Templestowe but for a second week running, the result was almost thrown away victory due to the Panthers’ DIVISION 1 — TIPS IN BOLD (YEARS TOTAL 22 / 73%) NOBS/St Pats v Therry Penola Williamstown CYMS v Yarra Valley MHSOB v Prahran Assumption Old Mentonians v Old Geelong Whitefriars v Bulleen Templestowe

inaccuracy at goal. OM’s gathered the ascendancy with four goals in the first term, before the Bullants lock down defence kicked in. The defensive mindset kept the adventurous OMFC in touching distance however Bulleen Templestowe could never grasp the lead. The second and third quarters were tight, before Old Mentonians finally broke the shackles in the last, only to kick 2.5.

Luckily for the young Panthers they held on to win by 23-points. Kieffer Smith-Cameron and Kyle Conlon controlled the midfield for the winners, while Brad Norton provided run and was strong off the back flack.

travel to NOBS/St Pats, the NOBs will be the Lions’ biggest test thus far, but Therry have too much fire power in their holster and will remain undefeated.

Williamstown CYMS host Yarra Valley, the Bushrangers’ struggles to continue in the section as the CY’s earn the four points. MHSOB face Prahran Assumption, if they can repeat last week’s efforts the Unicorns have a viable chance, however expect the Two Blues to keep them at bay. Old Mentonians host Old Geelong, the youngsters will be outmatched at home by the OG’s. Whitefriars need a win against Bulleen Templestowe to regain momentum. The Friars will find their feet again and defeat the Bullants.

RAIDERS ON THE RISE At a third of the way through the season we have a clearer view of who will contend and who finds themselves at the cross-roads. The top four as it stands shows that not much should be read into pre-season form. Kew’s form and dominance this year has surprised impartial onlookers and is a testament to their depth and strength as a club. Old Paradians’ rise has shocked. They’re just behind Kew as the form side of the section, ironing out their deficiencies from last year and are playing with greater vigour and intent.

After victory last week against Monash, Ivanhoe find themselves in the top four and under Paul Harris are playing with greater consistency and belief. St Mary’s are an improved side under Jess Sinclair but need to take a bigger scalp to take that next step from good to great. St Johns and Old Eltham are at the cross-roads. Both showed good form early this year, but have struggled for consistency over the last month of football. Their best is good enough but both need to produce it on a regular basis. South Melbourne is a club still developing and recent injuries may put on hold aspirations of scraping into the top-four and a surprise finals berth. Monash Gryphons, Elsternwick and Glen Eira are the battlers and need to scrounge together enough wins to avoid relegation. Kew are the side to beat and barring injury or a dramatic drop off in form look set for greater glory. A lot can happen between now and the end of the season and the next 12 rounds will be full of intrigue.

Ivanhoe took another step forward last week as they jumped into the top four for the first time this year after a hard fought 16 point win over Monash. The Hoes were wasteful in front of goal but did enough to secure their fourth win of the year. The Gryphons would have lamented their first quarter and actually outscored Ivanhoe after quarter time. Ivanhoe is an improving side and will now look at consolidating their top-four spot and stay ahead of the chasing pack.

16 point lead at quarter-time. As good sides do though, the Bears fought back and reduced the deficit to under a goal by the main break. After half-time it was all Kew as they slammed on eight goals to four and recorded a 19 point win.

Youngster Robert Maibaum was a standout for the Bears after bagging 6 while Andrew Brazzale chimed in with 4. The loss saw the Turtles fall to fifth and they will look to bounce back against South Melbourne this week.

At Ferndale Park, St Mary’s Salesian hosted an extremely undermanned South Melbourne Districts and the home side took full advantage.

The Saints took control from the get go, were relentless all day and recorded an amazing 177 point win. Whilst Alastair Dwyer kicked seven goals, he was not alone as St Mary’s had twelve individual goal kickers for the day with winners on every line. Jess Sinclair would have been pleased with the performance, but will no doubt be ensuring against complacency this week, as his side takes on an in form Ivanhoe away.

After 27 straight defeats Glen Eira burst out of the blocks and shocked Elsternwick with a seven goal first quarter and a 32 point lead at quarter-time. Elsternwick grabbed back the ascendency in the second and got the match back to level pegging by half-time. The third term was an arm-wrestle and at the final change it was Glen Eira with their noses in front. It was all set for a grandstand finish. In the last however, Elsternwick ran over the top of the luckless Saints and late snaps to Thornton (4 goals) and Grace (2) sealed a thrilling 12 point win.

at Thomas Carroll to the tune of 26 points. The game was of a high quality from the opening bounce as St Johns looked keen on burying memories from last year’s defeats to the Raiders and getting their season back on track. Paradian though had other ideas. St Johns lapsed late in the first and early in the second allowing the Raiders in and they capitalised. The Kandilakis brothers were dominant around the ball while Dave Boundy (5 goals) was the beneficiary of the good work up the field. The JOCs effort was on show for all to see, but consistency and taking opportunities when they present was again the problem. OPs won their fifth on the trot and will

DIVISION 2

The game with the most riding on it this week, is the clash between top four sides Ivanhoe and St Mary’s Salesian as both attempt to cement their spots in the top four. St Mary’s Salesian will start favourites after their demolition of South Melbourne, but Ivanhoe will know that their best this year stacks up and will be keen to remind the Saints of that. Another pivotal game is Old Eltham’s match up at South Melbourne Districts.

The Turtles need a win soon but the Bloods will be keen to atone for their performance last week.

PROTECTING HOME TURF Six rounds have passed in the 2014 season, but results have thrown up more questions than answers in Division 3 thus far. Power House and Emmaus St Leos both began their campaigns with three straight defeats, but have countered that by squaring the ledger and winning their next three.

Swinburne and Richmond became the ‘teams to beat’ after winning their first four, but since have been anything but convincing to find themselves back in the thick of teams embroiled in the finals race. Five teams find themselves separated by only percentage on four wins and two losses, while a further three are biting at their ankles on three wins in seventh to ninth place. Round six saw five sides protect their home soil and notch up wins at home, protecting home turf could be crucial in the chase for the coveted top two seeds come September.

REVIEW Aquinas def Albert Park Aquinas overturned a 15-point half time deficit to defeat Albert Park by 25 points at Aquinas College.

The win sees Aquinas move up to fourth on the Division 3 ladder while the Falcons sit in dangerous territory in eleventh. A combined seven goals from the Bloods’ Callum Cormack and Jack Price sparked their second half resurgence while Cale Blizzard and Ryan Hoult combined for six goals for the visitors.

Emmaus St Leos def Richmond Central Richmond Central continued their recent slide, dropping their second game in a row after a 56-point loss to Emmaus St Leos at Bennettswood Reserve. The Snake’s got within a goal of the Animals midway through the third quarter before Alan Sutherland’s men piled on five consecutive majors to put the result beyond doubt at three quarter time. The win puts Emmaus’ season back on track with three consecutive wins following their slow start to the year. Eastman Harding was a clear best on ground in his side’s win, with seven goals for the afternoon.

Trobe University. The difference between the teams was under two goals for the final three quarters in the tightly contested match, with the Razorback’s getting the last laugh through a final minute goal from Jack Curran to take the lead. The win leaves Swinburne at the top of the Division 3 ladder as the only side with five wins from their six games.

Captain-coach Ben Hunt kicked four for the Trobers while Jack Fitzpatrick was best afield for Swinburne.

Power House def South Mornington Thirteen individual players found themselves among the goal kickers for Power House as they demolished South Mornington by 155 points at Ross Gregory Oval. The win gives Ant Voyage’s side their third win on the trot, joining Emmaus as the two Division 3 sides that have turned their season’s around in a quick manner. The catalyst for the last three round’s improved performances for Power House, has been a focus on team defence, conceding just 110 points in the last three rounds. The key now is to maintain the their form through a challenging couple of weeks against sides above them.

St Francis Xavier def Eley Park Sharks Reigning Division 3 best and fairest Dimitri Dimakopoulos returned to action for St Francis Xavier, sparking his side to a two-point win over the in-form Eley Park at St Francis Xavier College.

The two teams couldn’t be more evenly matched on the day, with less than a goal separating them in every quarter for the match. The Shark’s Noel Bahnsen extended his impressive run in front of the sticks, with six goals for the match, bringing his total to 33 goals from just six games. The Sharks will be disappointed with the loss but with the competition so even they know the finals race is wide open.

Northern Blues def UHS-VU The Northern Blues solidified themselves inside the top six by comfortably accounting for UHS-VU by 38 points at Ruthven Reserve. The Blues’ made their intentions known from the outset of the match, kicking three goals to one against a strong DIVISION 3 — TIPS IN BOLD (YEARS TOTAL 26 / 72%) UHS-VU v Swinburne University South Mornington v Northern Blues Richmond Central v Aquinas Albert Park v Emmaus St Leos St Francis Xavier v La Trobe University Eley Park v Power House

second quarter wind to take a five-goal lead into half time. Damon Marcon was stellar for the home side kicking five majors for the contest while Russell Matthews was the best player for the Vultures. The win moves Northern back up to third on the ladder, whilst UHS-VU have been toppled by both of the promoted ides from Division 4.

PREVIEW UHS-VU v Swinburne University: The Vultures will be looking to bounce back following a disappointing result against the Northern Blues last week and Swinburne could be the casualty of that backlash.

South Mornington v Northern Blues: Northern could do with both percentage and a breather following a few weeks of tough contested football. The Blues in a canter despite the road trip down East Link.

DIVISION 3

Albert Park v Emmaus St Leos: The Animal’s always looked ominous despite losing their first three and a win against the Falcons will have the competition looking over their shoulder.

St Francis Xavier v La Trobe University: The return of Dimakopoulos cannot be overlooked. It is a massive boost for the X-Men who will look to dispose of the Trobers.

Eley Park Sharks v Power House: This is match of the round, the winner of this game will make the top six in my opinion.

DIVISION 4

Ryan ‘Hammy’ Goodman

@HandsomeHammyG

A POINT OF DIFFERENCE Despite the delivery of a fairly stringent Federal budget last week, several Division 4 supporters will be off to the manicurist this week after we had two games settled by a solitary point. Whilst fingernails were on the menu for Dragons, Box Hill North, Canterbury and Pies fans – the Hawks pigged out on Dog, the Cobras strangled the Synners and the Grammarians took the Bulls for a ride. In perfect conditions for footy, some teams were subjected to reality checks, whilst others produced displays that hardly seemed real.

Manningham continued strong recent form with a convincing win over the hapless Chadstone.

The early season desperation of the Synners was non-existant as the Cobras ran riot at Jordan Reserve. Adam Farrugia once again played a lone hand in Chadstone’s forward line, capitalising on limited opportunities with two goals. The Cobras shared the scoring around with five players registering three or more majors. Scott Newton was everywhere creating countless opportunities for the Cobras and headaches for Chadstone. The win is the third in a row for the Cobras, but they will have their work cut out if they want to make it four, as they host competition leaders Hawthorn, this weekend.

The Dragons breathed life into their season registering a shock win in a titanic clash with Box Hill North. As Box Hill North got away to a fourgoal lead in the first quarter, a win seemed like a mythical result for the Dragons. It proved to be anything but as the Dragons lived happily ever after by the barest of margins at the final siren.

Thomas Lowden produced a season best five-goal haul to lead the revival and was well assisted by Sang Seoun and Sareth Suon. Sean Donovan was again solid for Box Hill North, but unfortunately his efforts along with four goals from the everreliable Daniel Penny weren’t enough to see the team home. The loss cost Box Hill a potential place in the four and that could prove pivotal come September.

In West Brunswick’s first real test of the year, they were lucky to escape with a win against Canterbury. The Cobras forfeited their thirty three22

point three quarter time lead, as West Brunswick stormed home to remain undefeated for season 2014. Whilst the Cobras dictated terms for the majority of the match, they were unable to stem the flow of a rampant West Brunswick outfit who fell one point shy of doubling their score as it stood at three-quarter time. Joel Beer and Warwick Baker led the charge in the final term helping Mitchell Simpson to his biggest haul of the year. Despite the disappointment of losing, having been in such a strong position, the Cobras coaching staff and fans took great heart from the match. Their team showed they can mix it with the best in the competition – in fact, they could have regained their lead had they not missed three chances in the last five minutes. Should they meet again later in the year, no doubt a lot of confidence will come out of the way they played in the first three quarters. For the Pies, the result served as a slap in the face and should rid them of complacency going forward.

Same old story for the high flying Hawks with their reserves starting the day in emphatic fashion registering a thumping win and notching up a margin in excess of two hundred (g’day Jason Gillespie if you’re reading). Once again, their seniors were tested early, but their opposition were unable to match their intensity for long periods.

The Dogs seemed content to play keepingsoff to try and keep the scoreboard respectable, but sloppy skills inside their own fifty proved for embarrassing viewing and Hawthorn made them pay. The Hawks boasted ten goal kickers with new recruit Jason Ince having another day out. The boot of David ‘Tremmers’ Tremewen was like a tracer bullet, regularly putting holes in the chests of brown and gold jumpers from up to 50 meters away. The Hawks will face their first real test of the season against the in-form Manningham Cobras DIVISION 4 — TIPS IN BOLD (YEARS TOTAL 26 / 87%) North Brunswick v West Brunswick Canterbury v Dragons Box Hill North v Chadstone Manningham Cobras v Hawthorn Westbourne Gr v Point Cook

away from Rathmines this weekend, but you’d be brave to tip against them.

to parity, moving them up to fifth in the process.

North Brunswick fell down into the bottom three.

After a few disappointing results, Westbourne Grammarians produced a resounding win that they hope will reinvigorate their season. The Bulls were nothing short of disappointing. Failing to do the basics as they turned the ball over regularly when in possession and failed to stick to the game plan for regular periods. Tom Leary was an exception who capped off a successful expedition to the forward line with a goal from outside fifty.

For Westbourne, Justin Ray proved an imposing figure picking up five, but he could have had more if not for wayward kicking. Brenden Miller was also busy and was rewarded with two goals of his own. The result saw Westbourne’s win/loss return

A fairly even round of football awaits Division 4 this weekend. The Bulls host the Pies in the Brunswick derby, whilst the game of the round sees the in form Manningham Cobras host the mighty Hawks in what will be their toughest ask to date. Dragons new to the comp last year travel to this year’s newcomers Canterbury and a Western derby between Westbourne Gr and Point Cook is on the menu. Box Hill North can bounce back with a win when they host Chadstone.

THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2014

CLUB WAREHOUSE RISING STAR 2014 TIM MACMILLAN – OLD SCOTCH Brother of North Melbourne defender Jamie Macmillan, Tim shot to national prominence in the epic 2012 TAC Cup Grand Final for the Oakleigh Chargers against the Calder Cannons. With AFL talent scouts, a Docklands Stadium crowd and a television audience watching on, Macmillan kicked the tying goal with no time left on the clock. Oakleigh subsequently won by a point in extra time and Macmillan was lauded for his ice cool nerves under intense pressure. When quizzed about the kick, Macmillan admitted knowing the score/situation, but steeled his resolve by reminding himself that it was an easy kick. These days Macmillan plays across half back at Old Scotch where his neat disposal, smart decision-making and manic tackling are a hallmark of his play. Macmillan’s first memories of football are from Auskick as a 5 year old and lining up for the Camberwell Sharks Tackers. In more recent times, Macmillan played 3 games last season at Port Melbourne in the VFL as a defender coming on as the 23rd man. When not playing football, the modest, softly spoken Macmillan is a freakish top order batsmen for Old Scotch Cricket Club during the summer and a commerce student at Melbourne Uni. Asked what he hopes to achieve in football, Tim said, “I am not sure where I hope it leads me to, but I just want to enjoy it and play at a level that challenges me”.

* to be eligible for the club Warehouse Rising Star, a player must be born no earlier than 1993 and playing his first full season of senior football.

RETROSPECTIVE

Geoff Reilley

@GeoffreyReilley

5 YEARS AGO – 2009 Old Paradians caused somewhat of an upset AGAINST top team Williamstown CYMS in D1 Section although the scores were tied at the final siren. Williamstown had led all at the Garvey Oval but Paradians’ running game caused problems for their opposition all day.

Best: Seneca, Rehlicki, Sinclair, Spitty, Rendina, Valente (OP) and Cooper (4), Wheeler (3), Adamson, Walsh, Reid, McNamara (W).

10 YEARS AGO – 2004 Kew’s defeat of Elsternwick 14.8 to 9.9 allowed them to draw level with Elsternwick and Old Westbourne at the top of the D4 ladder.

Elsternwick were 1 point ahead at half time but could not sustain their hold with Kew kicking 5 unanswered goals in the second half. Best: Ianni, Tinetti, Bell, Dover, Lamanna (4), J Dennis (Kew) and McKenna, S Mahoney, Tennant, Thiele, Yemm, Cunningham (Elsternwick).

Old Xaverians’ legend, David Landrigan, played his 255th and final game after pre-season injuries, business and family commitments made his decision to retire easier. Following 14 magnificent seasons, David’s achievements were many including 6 A Grade senior premierships, Club vice-captain (97-98), three time VAFA rep player and second only in games played for the Xavs to that time behind Andrew Dillon. Phil Stevens had also included David in his ‘team of the nineties’. Fortunately for the VAFA, David continued to serve amateur football with distinction with the commencement of his coaching career some seasons later.

42

20 YEARS AGO – 1994 St Mary’s Evan Evans broke the club record when he played his 350th game and had been made a life member in 1991. Evan had held numerous positions of importance including Vice Captain of the seniors, Club Secretary and was currently a Vice President.

30 YEARS AGO – 1984 Victoria were too strong for South Australia, winning by 11 goals at Elsternwick Park.

The team was – Backs: A Smythe (BTemp), J Griffin (NOBS), N Burne (OX), Half Backs: M Deveson (DLS), N Wilton (OX), P Brown (Old Scotch) Centre: R Marks (AJAX), C Stone (Caulf Grammarians), B Hodge (Old Scotch) H Forwards: I McMullin (OM’s) R Brown (OM’s), M Hibbins (Coll) Forwards: S McCooke (Ormond), D Matthews (Caulf Grammarians), R Zerbi (Kew) Rucks: M Yeo (U Blues), J Jones (Marc), R Senior (Old Scotch) I/Change: N Bourke (Marc), R Demarte (B/Temp), M Green (DLS). Best were Matthews (8), Yeo, Hibbins, McCooke, Jones, Smythe, Zerbi. Coach: L Aghan.

40 YEARS AGO – 1974 Reservoir Old Boys were too strong for Uni Blues in A Section and won 24.20 to 13.14 and the Blues were never ever really in the game.

Best: Aston (5), Devlin, Trevascus, McCrohan (8), Letson, Crook (ROB) and Church (3), Vivian, Carmody, Sleeman (5), Sharp, Lyle (Blues). This good win meant Reservoir were determined to get clear of the relegation zone.

Beaumaris and Old Xaverinas couldn’t be separated at the end of 4 quarters. Considering Xavs let the Sharks kick 6 goals in the final term after leading by 4 goals at 3qtr time, this is one of those games where Xavs would have felt more like a loss. For the visiting Xavs, Prowse (3 goals) and Silk and Hannan kicked two each. Woodward was Beauy’s best while Burke (4) was huge up forward.

Richmond isn’t the only Tigers team struggling of late, St Bedes/Mentone’s season is going from bad to worse. Old Scotch were the protagonists and are building momentum winning by 12 goals at

@jdonohoe12 Brindisi St. After a 9 goal performance last week, Daggian dobbed 8 majors this week, putting him well clear at the top of the goal kickers. Anderson and Daggian were Scotch’s best while Hubeek and Pastura continue to be shining lights for a struggling Tigers side. St Bernard’s asserted their dominance over De La Salle at Waverley with a huge 20 goal win. Foster booted 8 and Sullivan 4 as St.Bernards continue to show that they are one of the most dominant teams in the competition this year. Old Melburnians were forced to forfeit against SKOBs, the result means SKOBs remain atop the ladder after 6 rounds.

U19 Section 2 Report

@LewisEmmerson Old Brighton defeated over Uni Blacks. Hugh Tyson was absolutely Mazenod to the tune of crucial in his side’s win. Blacks’ Michael Gibney 42-points. The win puts them kicked 3 goals but it wasn’t enough. Two of last just outside the top four. Jack year’s heavyweights went toe-to-toe in a thriller Knight’s 4 goals contributed at Ramsden Street. Up by 35 points at the final to a percentage booster for change, Parkdale held back a steamrolling Fitzroy Brighton. University Blues took better advantage to win by a solitary point. Parkdale’s Darcy Ballard, of the scoring end to edge out Caulfield Gr by buoyed by his stint in the senior side, was the 13 points. Blues’ Will Blakey single handily took catalyst for the Vultures victory with 4 goals. His the game by the scruff of the neck, proving the performance has him knocking down the door difference between the two sides with 8 goals. for another senior call-up. Fitzroy’s Luke Edwards Caulfield’s Lachlan Gallop chimed in with 3 of continued his good form. Whitefriars provided a his own. Despite some fairly inaccurate kicking, football master class in their 112-point win over Old Trinity still manufactured a 19-point victory Collegians.

U19 Section 3 with Tom Connolly @tomconnolly15

Old Xaverians were just too strong on for St Mary’s Salesian as they ran out 56 point winners. Fitzpatrick for Old Xavs kicked 5 to help them get over the line with a percentage booster and a win that levels their season at 3-3. AJAX were dominate last week against Old Camberwell winning by 100 points exactly. Saltzman kicked 4 and Schwartz kicked 3 for a combining for more goals than Old Camberwell managed as a team. Marcellin are starting to string a few wins together winning by 31 points over Williamstown CYMS, Mascitti won 44

plenty of the ball and Jones bagged 3 goals for the Eagles. In the top of the table clash and match of the round, Old Ivanhoe are still undefeated after they beat the previously undefeated Old Carey by a very convincing 53 points. Broughan for Old Ivanhoe kicked 3 for the day that helped them stay top. The Panthers were a shadow of themselves as they only managed seven goals for the day. With Therry Penola and the Northern Blues going to the North division that means there are only 8 teams in Section 3 of the Under 19’s. This means games will be more tough to win each week and there will be no easy beat. I wish good luck to the teams this week.

UMPIRES

Steve McCarthy & Kit Harvey

MILESTONE UP FOR ‘TEARER

LAWS OF THE GAME QUIZ #1

Snapping at Bobby Seymour’s heels is none other than goal umpire David “Balltearer” D’Altera, who today also notches up his 550th VAFA game. David is in his sixth season in the goals, after joining us from the VFA as a field umpire in 1985. He officiated in 450 VAFA games in D, E, F and under 19s before succumbing to a knee injury after the 2008 season. He also umpires in the Yarra Junior Football League on Sundays and manages a few AFL Masters games as well. Well ‘Tearer, enjoy the day with your old mate Bob Seymour.

Here it is, folks, the first installment of a new section of Umpires Corner: the Laws of the Game Quiz. Each week, there will be a question about the rules of the game we love, with the answer supplied the following week. Here’s this week’s question, it’s multiple choice:

And for all you others out there, don’t forget to let us know if you have an upcoming milestone.

b) When the ball leaves the field umpire’s hand or touches the ground.

A RAINLESS ROUND After a couple of weeks affected by damp conditions, dry weather footy returned last weekend. The centre bounce was back, glue pots in the middle were less prominent and game balls remained in good enough nick to train with. It’s great to umpire footy when the skills are up and the long stops aren’t necessary. But there’s something to be said for wet weather footy in a time of indoor stadiums and manicured playing surfaces. May the day never arrive when our suburban game loses its connection to the elements.

When is the centre square “locked” (players cannot enter/exit the centre square, ruckmen must be inside the circle)? a) When both boundary umpires are on their corners.

c) When the field umpire commences his or her approach to the circles.

BUNNING’S FUNDRAISER We’re looking for a few volunteers to man the tongs at our fundraising BBQ at Bunnings Moorabbin on Sunday 8th June. See any of the social committee for details and come and sizzle a few sauasages.

MACCA’S BIRTHDAY From Kit (not Macca being self-indulgent) – “It would be remiss of us not to mention the birthday last weekend of Umpires Corner’s very own Steve McCarthy. There’s a ‘5’ in his age somewhere, but you’ll have to ask him yourself exactly where that is. On behalf of the VAFAUA, we hope you had a beauty, Macca!”

VAFA COLTS

Olivia Crowe

@Liv_Crowe

ALL ABOARD THE NODDERS TRAIN Mazenod entered the Colts this year if we didn’t know much about them at the start, we certainly know about them now. Winning their fifth straight game comfortably against University Blues by 167 points. The question is can anyone stop this Nodders train as the dominant force within the section? Kieran McKeogh put in another outstanding performance with seven goals as Sam Deegan was named best afield in the win. In the West, Point Cook opened up their first quarter with an impressive nine goal display setting them up nicely for the match against Willamstown CYMS. The CY’s were able to outscore their opponents in the last quarter, but the damage had already been done by the Bulldogs, claiming the 32 point victory away from home. Brandyn Foley kicked 5 for the victors. Another new side Westbourne Gr. also seem to be enjoying their time in the section as they had a impressive 61 point victory over UHS VU. The Grammarians were able to keep their opponents to two goals for the entire match as Tom Kitson kicked four in the win, whilst Tom Mcall was named best afield for UHS VU. It was always going to be tough for Old Paradians coming up against an inform St Bernard’s. The Paradians were ten points behind at the first change before the Snowdogs clicked into gear after half time and were dominant in their 68 point win at home.

ORDER RESTORED Round 6 saw a close finish, two “blow out” results and a rare “whitewash” as the quest for fourth place in two sections intensifies.

kicked nine goals got the day and despite the Sharks having less of the play, they finished only five points in arrears.

ROUND 6 REVIEW

SECTION 3 The small Melbourne High School Oval did not deter La Trobe University, who held the “Unicorns” goalless as the leaders powered to victory by 117 points. La Trobe join Hawthorn at Club XVIII level as the only undefeated sides. University High School/ V.U. after a quiet start proved too strong for the Dragons whose lack of match fitness was revealed by their fourth quarter fade out. University High School/ V.U. consolidated their hold on fourth place through their 63 point victory. North Old Boys/ St Patrick’s proved too strong for visiting Kew as Macleod and O’Connell’s four goals each outscored the Bears on their own in the home side’s 76 point win.

SECTION 1 Old Xaverians had the better of Mt Lilydale as they controlled their contest throughout. Mt Lilydale recovered from an early “Crocodile” onslaught but could not sustain pressure as their efforts wilted in the last quarter. The Xaverians surged to a 43 point win to restore a level of confidence back to the side beating a competitive opposition. With a sustained effort, Hawthorn held Masala scoreless.

While the ladder leaders scored 171 points, for four quarters, they didn’t even allow Masala a rushed behind. Antonio Brizzi and Stanley Neohoritis each kicked six Hawthorn goals. Old Geelong led Prahran/ Assumption throughout the first half but wilted under “Two Blue” second half pressure.

The Two Blues turned a half time deficit of nine points into a three-point lead at the last change.

In the last quarter Prahran Assumption were able to kick away and win by 22 points to bolster their chances of finishing fourth.

SECTION 2 Bulleen Templestowe started slowly against Therry Penola in front of the largest crowd of the season (The A.G.S. Cross Country runs were contested around the oval environs!). The Therry Penola half time lead of 26 points was the same as their final margin. Best for Therry Penola were: Ricky McKerrow, Michael Helm and Thomas Burt. For Bulleen Templestowe the best were: Michael Sabbatucci, Joseph Caridi and Andrew Rattan. Williamstown C.Y.M.S. built an early lead over Richmond Central and never surrendered it, despite a late rally by the Snakes who finished 14 points in arrears. Leaders, Emmaus/ St Leo’s received a nasty scare from Eley Park. Both sides 58

PREVIEW OF ROUND 7 SECTION 1 Masala face another severe test when they make the long journey to Mt Lilydale, where I expect the locals to record another clear victory to consolidate third place. Leaders Hawthorn, should comfortably account for Old Geelong who have revealed an inability to play out four quarters. It is a shame traditional rivals, Old Xaverians and Prahran/ Assumption meet on Stradbroke Park and not at Toorak Park the ground the two senior clubs share as their home. From all reports neither side is as powerful as in season’s past. Nevertheless, I select Old Xaverians.

SECTION 1 TIPS IN BOLD (YEARS TOTAL 16 / 89%) Mt Lilydale v Masala Old Xaverians v Prahran Assumption Hawthorn v Old Geelong

SECTION 2 Richmond Central face another challenge today when they play leaders, Emmaus/ St Leo’s.

THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2014

Defeat for ‘The Snakes” will make their chances of finishing first or second much harder. Emmaus/ St Leo’s received a scare last round and as a consequence will be all out to assert themselves today. I select “The Animals” to win and thus maintain leadership of the Section. Therry Penola showed some form last week when their big men led the way forward. Today on the Fawkner Oval, a graveyard for many visiting teams, I select Therry Penola to defeat Eley Park for whom defeat will see them drop to fifth. Williamstown C.Y.M.S. now safely in the section’s top two should win again against the yet to win, Bulleen Templestowe, whose players seem unable to sustain the necessary standard throughout a game.

SECTION 2 TIPS IN BOLD (YEARS TOTAL 12 / 67%) Richmond Central v Emmaus St Leos Therry Penola v Eley Park Sharks Bulleen Templestowe v Williamstown CYMS

SECTION 3 North Old Boys/ St Patrick’s should possess the necessary talent to defeat Melbourne High School Old Boys at Forest Hill. The “Unicorns” failed to goal last week and cannot expect any less pressure today from their visitors who sit second on the ladder. I saw the Kew and Dragons match in Round 1 when the Dragons surrendered an early lead by their inability to play for four quarters. Nothing seems to have changed in the intervening weeks and today I select Kew to win well again. On their big ground, I expect La Trobe University to win well over University High School /V.U. whose players, I suspect, will struggle on the wide expanses of the La Trobe Oval.
