BIG V ON TOP IN REP FOOTY Whilst the clubs had a break over the long weekend the Big V travelled north and south to Brisbane and Hobart respectively to take on the best from each of those states. The players did the association proud as we upheld our undisputed title as the best community competition with two runaway victories. I have enjoyed watching the senior side develop, firstly under the direction Dean Anderson and now with Simon Lethlean as coach. It is not just the style of play but the manner in which they conduct themselves as representatives of the Association. Only players who understand and have a desire to wear the Big V are selected and their attitude is faultless. Before each game they prepare professionally, respecting their opposition and understanding that if they are not at their peak, they will get wiped away. Representative matches are unique. You are not fully aware of the standard of the opposition, who their best players are, or the general style of play. One thing you do know is that the intensity is high, the time you have to dispose of the ball is minimal and that the tackling is ferocious. In the senior match against AFLQ our first 20 minutes was exceptional. Our delivery was clean and precise, our foot skills outstanding and the speed of our players blew the opposition out of the water. They didn’t know what had hit them. This is what representative footy is about and I can tell you that those players who represented the Association will be all the better for this experience come finals time at their club. Off the field our players have really bonded together. Most of this group now have played together from the under age representative matches and share a great camaraderie. A key
ingredient for team success is cohesion and the senior team has this in spades. They are unselfish and play for each other, clearly understanding their role that achieves the desired result. The first 20 minutes of the match highlighted this. One would have thought that this wasn’t a representative team brought together for four training sessions, but a team that has trained and played together for years. In community football there is no doubting that the VAFA is the premier competition in the country. We have been challenged by each of the state amateur leagues and defeated them at under 23 level. Our seniors have defeated AFL Victoria Country, the EFL three times, AFL Sydney and now AFL Queensland. This is a magnificent achievement and one all members of the association should feel proud to belong. Anthony Amad convenes a lunch to commemorate the achievements of our representative teams and to recognise individuals who have made significant contributions to the Big V. This year we acknowledge three former players. Duncan Anderson from University Blues who played for the Big V from 1950-56. Michael Blood from Old Xaverians played from 1994-1999 including captain for the final three years. Andrew Ramsden is the first to be acknowledged from Old Trinity and he played from 1998-2005, Andrew was captain of the Big V from 2002-2005. Finally on behalf of everyone at the VAFA, I would like to congratulate former VAFA President and current Patron, John Dillon on his Order of Australia Medal announced on the Queens Birthday honours list. John has been a significant member of the VAFA since he joined the then Executive in 1967. John has contributed thousands of hours voluntarily to numerous not for profits including the VAFA, Australian National Football Council and the Melbourne Racing Club. A great honour and richly deserved. Front Cover: Ari Wytwornik (AJAX)

LETHLEAN AND HAWKINS TAKE OVER AT XAVS Simon Lethlean completed duties with the senior representative side last weekend before a Monday morning phone call with the Old Xavs committee confirmed he will lead the club for the remainder of the 2014 season. Lethlean will co-coach the side with former Old Xavs U19s coach Pat Hawkins who also coached Collegians to the 2006 Premier B flag. Old Xaverians certainly have their work cut out but as many people of Toorak Park have pointed out to me this week, the last time they had a coaching change mid year, they recovered to win a flag. Their opponent the first week of that change in 1996 was De La Salle, the same club will travel to Toorak Park today. Keep calm and carry on. The words were used like this on the famous British poster created in the lead up to the outbreak of World War II in 1939. The poster was commissioned by the Ministry for Information but was never widely circulated. It only gained notoriety this century, and has been used on t-shirts and other merchandise throughout Britain. This phrase is likely what everyone at Old Xaverians is uttering in the aftermath of a coaching change over. Dom Berry’s departure from the club, just seven games after co-coaching them to a premiership was the biggest news story on vafa.com.au last week. The appointment of the new coaching team as announced by the club earlier this week is currently running a close second. Whether the rest of the competition likes it or not, the trials and tribulations of Old Xaverians are big news. The straw the broke the camels back as it were for Berry, was the 8 point loss suffered at Brighton Beach Oval. Whilst details of the separation of 2
@ Lennytalk the two parties is yet to be fully disclosed, there is no doubt that Xavs’ win –loss record had a major part to do with what has eventuated. After securing a first win a week prior, Old Brighton sensed the fragility of an Old Xaverians side low on confidence. Let’s not mince words; this was an ugly game of football, only marginally better than what Melbourne and Collingwood served up on the Queen’s Birthday Monday. However, the Tonner’s wouldn’t have cared how they got the four points that took them out of the bottom two. Leigh Hendra was a standout in the revival that saw Brighton claw back a three goal advantage Xavs established in the third term. With the game on a knifes edge with multiple lead changes, a Charlie King mark and goal gave the Tonners enough breathing space to record an important win. The win made sweeter for Josh Dickerson who was playing his 250th game for the club. It’s a big statement, but De La Salle have turned their season around off the back of their thrilling one point win over St Bernard’s. De La probably should have beaten Collegians a week prior, so the fact they didn’t let this one slip, against the form side of the comp is of huge significance. It was a pulsating game of Premier football with some fantastic passages of play interspersed with the tough doggedness of both sides.. Despite four goals from Chad Jones and Adam Bentick and Tom Sullivan continuing to pump the ball inside, Bernard’s just couldn’t convert their chances. Jake Williams is finding his 2013 form and the blend of youthful exuberance that De La possess and the old hands combined to have them in front when it mattered most. Old Scotch has fast become the hardest side to read in the competition. A good win against Old Xavs was followed up by a narrow loss away to Old Trinity, then a mighty seven goal second term at Beaumaris was followed by a meek four goal second half, whilst Beaumaris slammed through 13 goals to romp away to a 47 point win. Scott Gower kicked five goals and Will Murton PREMIER — TIPS IN BOLD (YEARS TOTAL 22/63%) Old Brighton v Old Trinity Old Scotch v Collegians St Bedes/Mentone v University Blacks Old Xaverians v De La Salle St Bernard’s v Beaumaris

four, whilst Raph Clarke was everywhere picking up possessions at will. It is a welcome sign for Beaumaris, the Sharks slotting back into third whilst the Cardinals slipped to sixth. University Blacks sit outright top of the ladder as they did at the same point last year. Old Trinity’s style of play and ferocity for the contest is evident, however Blacks just had that little bit extra to draw upon when required. Old Trinity are a young side in a hurry and there is no doubt the more seasoned bodies of some of the Blacks players took a liking to their more slender opponents. On the eve of Uni holiday’s, Blacks will be hopeful they can avoid a mid season slump like last year. With Uni Oval in significantly better shape, at least they will not be bundled to multiple locations to play their home matches. Collegians have broken from the chasing pack as the team most likely to break into the four. A third win in a row for the Lions has them just a game outside the four. St Bedes/Mentone Tigers made them earn it for three quarters before a Collegians onslaught in the last, saw the margin

All eyes will be on Toorak Park to see if Xavs can respond listening to new voices. Player availability will likely have more of an impact and there are some key inclusions coming back. Like all other sides De La will sense a kill though and this is a mouthwatering contest. Old Scotch and Collegians is a genuine eight point game and Old Brighton could make it three in a row when they host Old Trinity. Beaumaris travel to St Bernard’s, which could reveal just how far the Sharks have come.

blow out to a flattering 34 points. Taft booted five goals but it is the form on every line of their six VAFA representatives that has awoken the Lions. Michael Barnes booted four goals for the Tigers but last year’s runner’s up couldn’t muster a response when they needed to in the final quarter.

UPSETS A PLENTY SEES TOP FOUR RACE WIDEN Round 8 was full of surprises, as Old Ivanhoe came from behind to overcome Fitzroy; Old Haileybury took Old Carey down to the wire, but ultimately fell short; Mazenod upset St Kevins comfortably; Old Melburnians thrashed Caulfield Grammarians; and, in just about the only predictable outcome of the round, University Blues notched up win number seven over AJAX. Old Ivanhoe travelled to Brunswick Street, to take on a red hot Fitzroy in front of a large crowd. The Roys were looking for their fourth win on the trot whilst the Hoes were chasing win number two. The last placed Old Ivanhoe could have been forgiven for succumbing easily to a surging Fitzroy, but it wasn’t to be. The ‘Hoes jumped first, and took a 2213 point lead into quarter time, which they built on with a further three goals to Fitzroy’s two, to lead by 14 points at the main break. The Roys kicked four goals four in the third quarter, including a true captain’s goal from Rory Angiolella to put his boys in front. With the momentum signs pointed to Fitzroy outmuscling their lesser ranked rivals in the last term. However, as the scoring floodgates opened at both ends, it was the ‘Hoes who showed most grit, kicking four goals and restricting Fitzroy to two, to get up by seven points in a gutsy, backsagainst-the-wall upset. Goals were shared on both sides, as no man kicked more than two. Mitris, Gieschen and Geilings were amongst the hardest and best for the Hoes, while Cussen, McCarthy and Brown played well for Fitzroy, although no doubt disappointed with the result. This win wasn’t enough to elevate the Hoes from the bottom of the ladder, but one against Haileybury in a fortnight will be. Old Haileybury hosted Old Carey at Princes Park, and took their more fancied opponents the full distance, to fall less than a kick shy of victory. Scoring was fluid all game, and while Old Carey led at every break, they couldn’t shake Haileybury, who refused to be beaten. A 20 point margin in favour of the Panthers looked set to blow out in the last term, but Haileybury came home fiercely, kicking five goals to Carey’s inaccurate two goals five. The Bloods almost pulling off an exhilarating 4
come from behind victory. Although, the Panthers proved too strong and held on to win by four points, Old Haileybury lost no friends with their performance. Laidlaw lead the charge for Carey, nabbing five majors, while McQueen-Miscamble was excellent alongside Smithwick, who also managed three goals. Meehan tallied a career best of six goals for Haileyburians. He received some quality football by Ferguson, Nash and Gleadhill who were all gallant in what goes down as a nearwin. Coming off the back of a dismantling at the hands of Old Carey last week, St Kevins were again lacking, falling victim to Mazenod at TH King Oval. Mazenod, who were placed second from the bottom after round seven, accounted for their top four opponents with ease, never looking challenged. Mazenod went into the first break with a 16 point lead, but did most of the damage in the second term. The Nodders slammed on nine goals to SKOB’s three. St Kevins won the third quarter with six straight, but as Mazenod added 4 goals, the damage was irreparable. St Kevins scored freely in the last, adding eight goals, but were unable to stand up in defence, as Mazenod managed five more goals to keep the margin just out of reach for SKOB. Kelly, Bonner and Inglis stood up for a strident Mazenod, while Phibbs led the forward line with four goals in an impressive team performance. Lucky that Fitzroy were also upset, St Kevins manage to hold on to a precarious third position. To get back to winning ways the Skobbers need to be more output from those other than the usual suspects of Kanakis, Karageorgiou, Wood and Nash. Old Melburnians put Caulfield Grammarians to the sword at Glenhuntly Oval to remind everyone of their merits in 2014.

from the first bounce, piling on six goals in contrast to Caulfield’s 3 behinds. A further five Melburnian goals in the second term to the ‘Fields two meant that by half time, the result was already clear. It was more of the same in the second half as OMs ten goals outdid Caulfield’s four, and the siren mercifully relented the onslaught with the scoreboard 89 points in Melburnian’s favour. Paule, Thompson and De Steiger starred for the victors, while for Caulfield there weren’t many positive stories. Green managed two goals, while Bowden and Silvestro were manful. Caulfield are now locked with Melburnians on the ladder, as well as Mazenod, who, on 12 points remain just within the top four hunt. Both sides have fixtures against Mazenod and Fitzroy in the coming fortnight, and the results will be telling for both clubs.

Uni Blues travelled to Gary Smorgon Oval, to take on a proud AJAX who were sure to be ferocious after last week’s trashing. Within two minutes of the first bounce, AJAX had equalled their goal tally from last week and demonstrated that they’d come to play. Undermanned, and having lost their former captain Matt Torney early, the Blues were unable to shake AJAX for much of the first half. It wasn’t until late in the third term, when the Blues bagged 3 majors, that they stamped their authority on the game. The last quarter saw Blues play with much more efficiency, adding five goals five, to the Jacka’s two goals four. The Blues stay top after a week off with their seventh win of the year. Overall a good win which was closer for three quartes of the game than the scoreboard might suggest.

ROVERS AND BLUES SHOW NO MERCY The Monash Blues and the Hampton Rovers have climbed to 2nd and 3rd respectively on the Premier C table as we resurface after the bye round. Both clubs had emphatic wins over their rivals a fortnight ago, kicking two of the biggest totals we have witnessed this year. The Blues booted a staggering 30.5-185 while Hampton produced a 25.19-169 score line. With the bye a refresher for most players, the Blues and the Rovers both find themselves in commanding positions after an impressive pas couple of outings for both clubs. The Rovers are beginning to recapture their ominous form that they showed in the opening three rounds as they recorded their second win in a matter of weeks, accounting for Banyule by 110 points. The Bears started the game brightly, leading by four points at the first change, but their joy was short-lived. After quarter time the Rovers managed to restrict Banyule to three majors whilst booting 22 of their own. McDonald (4) and Barclay (2) were shining lights for the Bears, but they lacked the support crew; overcome by yet another second half onslaught. The Bears were unable to combat the Rovers sheer potency up forward, as six players kicked multiple goals for the day, joining in the scoring frenzy, while Deveraux and Ting again battled it out for best afield honours. Over the last three weeks the Vultures have managed to get themselves out of the relegation zone with three wins in three weeks. The Vultures inflicted more pain on Ormond over the weekend with a 17 point away win, demoting the Monders to 9th spot. The Monders last enjoyed the taste of victory in Round 4 and desperately need to regain that winning formula or there will be consequences. A powerful six-goal blitz from the Vultures in the second term ensured they were always in command. Tim Boland and Charlie Dillon each contributed to two goals and had a prolific impact on the outcome of the match. For the Monders Simon and Saunders tried to wrest back the momentum in the second half but Parkdale were resolute quashing any hopes of an Ormond comeback. Most people probably had to do a double take 6
when they read the results on Sunday morning. Yes that’s correct, Monash kicked 30.5-185, overpowering PEGS by 133 points, in a result that shocked all Premier C observers. Accuracy was the order of the day for the Blues, whilst inaccuracy cost PEGS dearly. The Blues took control of the game from the outset, utilizing their home ground advantage to open up a 70 point lead at the main break. The Blues refused to waste their chances up forward, managing 16 second half goals and only two behinds producing a score line that is virtually unheard of. The PEGS defensive unit hardly had an opportunity to get their hands on the ball, as they lost track how many times the ball sailed over their head. Joe Cosgriff was named best on ground for his seven goals, but he wasn’t alone as 12 other players joined in the rout. For the vanquished Skurrie and Baddeley battled bravely but the deficit was insurmountable. With four changes from last week’s lineup, Oakleigh weren’t given much of a chance against the Eagles who had recorded back-to-back 100 point plus wins. The Krushers were in the hunt in the first half as a defensive struggle ensued. However, as the game progressed the Eagles were able to edge clearer, ultimately winning by 34 points. Oakleigh battled hard but couldn’t make any inroads, hindered by third term turnovers and fundamental skill errors. Bolger, Millsom and McPherson (3 goals apiece) ensured the Eagles held a handy 25 point advantage at ¾ time. Not to be swept aside with ease, Andreatta and Daidone provided with Krushers with a lift cutting the margin to 16 points. But this was as close as they came, Marcellin seized back the momentum with five unanswered goals. After setting the pace for the first month of football, Peninsula’s 42 point loss to Old Camberwell now PREMIER C — TIPS IN BOLD (YEARS TOTAL 28/70%) Hampton Rovers v Old Camberwell Monash Blues v Oakleigh Parkdale Vultures v Banyule Peninsula v Ormond PEGS v Marcellin

has them sitting back with a host of other teams on four wins and four losses. It was a fiery contest early at Gordon Barnard Reserve, as both sides traded goals, before the Wellers clicked into gear. The Wellers opened up a 32-point half time lead on the back of hard running and a willingness to utilize the middle of the ground. Hart was in everything while Hillier (4) and Allwright (5) provided a focal point up forward. Quick ball movement and forward line pressure gave the Pirates a spark in the premiership quarter but they soon tired succumbing to the big Camberwell deck. The running capacity of the Wellers enabled them to kick clear late in the final term, sealing a vital win that sees them well and truly in touch with the four. On a day when there weren’t too many positives, Pirates coach Claringbold heaped praise on the performance of Alex Marshall for his six goals and the negating role played by Brett Brisbane on ex-AFL player Robbie Campbell.
PREMIER C
As we look ahead to today’s action, I’m tipping it to be a week for the home teams. The Rovers should overcome a gallant Old Camberwell side at Boss James, whilst Monash will continue their rise to the top with a win over Oakleigh. Banyule will find the trip down the Nepean tough going, as the Vultures string together win number four in a matter of weeks. Peninsula should get back on the winners list at home, but they will be pushed all the way by Ormond. PEGS have a great opportunity to knock off ladder leaders Marcellin on home soil, and if there was a week to do it, this would be it.

Last weekend’s bye can be approached in two different manners. Some teams will have had the mentality that the bye is purely an opportunity to refresh and regroup while others will have put in the extra sessions in a bid to have the edge over their opponents in a fortnight’s time.

SPIDERMAN SURPRISE AT SPORTSCOVER Sportscover Arena had a surprise visitor last weekend as Spiderman cast his web over the hallowed VAFA turf. Just how Spiderman came to be at Elsternwick Park is unknown. Sources suggest that he left a few cobwebs behind, but we are unsure if they were already there due to the limited use of headquarters this year
SAINT PETA Congratulations to former St Kevin’s assistant coach Peta Searle who was appointed development coach at the St Kilda Football Club last week. Peta created history as she became the first female assistant coach at an AFL club. The VAFA wishes Peta all the best in her new role at the Saints and we are sure St Kevin’s Old Boys learnt a lot from her wisdom despite only having her services for the first part of the year.

LUCKY ESCAPE The VAFA send their best wishes to Lachlan St Clair who unfortunately broke his neck whilst playing for UHS-VU in their Club XVIII match against NOB/St Pat’s two weeks ago. Lachlan was injured while attempting to win the ball and unfortunately the collision has resulted in a double break to two of his vertebrae in his neck. Lachlan was operated on at the Royal Melbourne Hospital and is resting well. He will have a “Halo Brace” on for 3 to 4 months and

1 1964 BLACKS B GRADE 1964 PREMIERSHIP TEAM CELEBRATE performance in the backline, members of our 1964 team were joined by Blacks supporters and even a couple of their opponents from the big day. With Dineamic’s minestrone and quinoa soup proving to be a big hit, the memories flowed and all in attendance were taken back to a time when a ‘superfood’ was just something that didn’t come in a can. Post-game, as the Blacks players reviewed their victory, 1964 premiership coach Frank Dunen congratulated the side and urged them to continue their current form. Clearly he felt that while the pavilion menu may have altered slightly over 50 years, the traits of a good team have not.
Can you imagine a time where an Australian Prime Minister would be in the midst of his 10th ministry? What about a time where four lads from Liverpool could bring downtown Melbourne to a standstill? 1964 was such a time. At the Uni Main Pavilion on Saturday, the Uni Blacks paid tribute to the 1964 B-Grade senior premiership side. With Robert Menzies entering his final years as PM, the Blacks won what was to be the first of B-Grade/A-Grade back-to-back premierships with a 20 point victory over Commonwealth Bank. As the curtain raiser was played out on the ground, with current Commonwealth Bank employee Bart Mill putting in a frugal

GOALKICKING CLASS Seven/Eight games into the season and we have witnessed some goal kicking class. Two weeks ago we saw bags of 9, 10, 11 and even 13 kicked. As you can see from the table below, four of the top leading goal kickers have already reached the forties, with Therry Penola’s Corey Bannister leading the charge with 44, his highest being 10 in round 1 against
Old Geelong. David Boundy and Jason Ince are close second, both on 42, as Ari Mitropoulous sits on 40. The question is can anyone get to the ton by seasons end? Judging by the below stats and how many goals these forwards are kicking each week, anything is possible.

300-MEN FLOURISH NOBS/St Pats milestone men, Scott Sleep and Daniel Tonkin wound back the clock as they proved instrumental in a demolition of MHSOB, both men playing their 300th games for the club in the same match. The two played games resembling their prime as they both delivered performances worthy of best on votes, outdoing their younger counterparts. Tonkin ended the day with five goals, four before halftime, while Sleep chipped in with two in the 107-point victory. Elsewhere, Therry Penola extended their win streak to eight, and Old Geelong and Yarra Valley returned to the winners list with excelling outings. From the outset NOBSPC had the authority and MHSOB were outrun and outplayed early. The Nobs piled on eight goals in the first and another seven in the second to steer away to a 69-point advantage at halftime. The third term saw a more competitive effort from the Unicorns, but was still overwhelmed by the Nobs onslaught. Progress regressed in the last as another seven Nobs/St Pat’s goals were kicked as they earned a resounding victory. Defender Pat Kelly was named best on while Matt Keown, 300-gamer Daniel Tonkin and Matt Chapman all kicked five goals apiece. Yarra Valley moved one step further away from relegation as the trumped Whitefriars. The pair now separated at 7th and 8th by mere percentage. An opening six goal term saw the Bushrangers grasp a 17-point advantage, only for that to dissipate to one following a Whitefriars resurgence in the second. Starting all square in the second half, Yarra Valley again found a slender advantage for the term, and kept it through to game’s end with six majors in the last. Simon Yeo’s seven goals for the 16
Bushrangers earned him best on for his crucial contribution to the 19-point win. Therry Penola’s 8th straight victory was another solid win, but a less clinical than their previous outings. After conceding seven goals in the first quarter, and another seven in the second, Old Mentonians were seemingly blown away. The Panthers rejuvenated the competitive juices in the third term keeping the Lions to two goals and snagging two of their own. However, Therry Penola’s fitness proved too much for OMFC in the last as they were run off their feet and Therry displayed their best quarter for the day with another six goals. Jarrod Bannister’s nine goals led Therry Penola to an 87-point victory as their undefeated streak extends to eight on the trot. Old Geelong drew level with second on the ladder, (record of 5-3) following a comfortable win over Bulleen Templestowe. A lacklustre first term was upstaged by an Old Geelong barrage of six goals and holding the Bullants goalless in the second. Bulleen Templestowe regained some control in the third but the damage was done leaving the OG’s to participate in a glorified training session in the last to stroll to a 55-point trouncing. Thomas Wigan and Callum Wood took charge in front of goals with four each, while Nick O’Hare was B.O.G. Prahran Assumption jumped Williamstown CYMS for second place with a significant victory over their fellow 2013 finalists. The two traded goals in a free flowing first quarter, with 9.10 DIVISION 1 — TIPS IN BOLD (YEARS TOTAL 31/78%) Old Geelong v Whitefriars Williamstown CYMS v Bulleen Templestowe Therry Penola v Prahran Assumption MHSOB v Yarra Valley Old Mentonians v NOBS/St Pats

between them for a 4-point margin at terms end. The score became lopsided from there on with Prahran Assumption kicking seven past Williamstown to take a 33-point lead up to halftime. The CY’s were never able to arrest the deficit as the Two Blues repaid with interest to any goal scored and with that, Prahran Assumption knocked up a 34-point win. John Robbins kicked a game-high five goals along with Patrick Harris joining in slotting four.
to bounce back against Bulleen Templestowe,
This week, Old Geelong host the struggling Whitefriars, the OG’s at Como Park will be too much for the Friars. Williamstown CYMS aim
to get over the line on the road.

BREAK TIME’S OVER For most, the only joy that is felt from being part of a monarchy is the long weekend scheduled for the celebration the Queen’s birthday. In a football sense, it is a great opportunity for injured players to recover, clubs to take stock and assess their form and also for a bit of old fashioned team bonding. Round 8 ran predominantly to script. The exceptions being South Melbourne’s return to form against Elsternwick and the ease to which St Mary’s accounted for St Johns. South Melbourne has had their depth stretched over the last few weeks due to injury, but Anthony Quon’s chargers showed excellent resilience to record a 28 point win. St Mary’s Salesian hosted St Johns at Ferndale Park and a few sensed an upset was on the cards...how wrong we can be. The Saints controlled the contest from start to finish and St Johns never looked like it, in their most disappointing performance in a long time. Football is played 90% above the shoulders and Steve Ware will be angered by his side’s lack of mental application in the first half but heartened by their fight in the second. For the sixth straight week South Melbourne copped an injury in the first ten minutes. They lost full-back and co-captain Nick Graham and found themselves down a soldier. Resilience and resolve was needed and that’s what the Districts provided. Elsternwick and South Melbourne went goal for goal in the first half but it was the Districts up by 14 points at half-time. The lead stretched to a 23 point lead early in the third and that’s when the Wicks found something. Elsternwick hit back and actually got their noses in front mid way through the third. In the last it was the Districts turn to lift and they did, they kicked away and recorded a confidence boosting five goal win. The game between Old Eltham and Ivanhoe presented the most intrigue and held the most significance from a ladder point of view of all the games in Round 8. With Old Eltham desperate to break back into the top four and Ivanhoe keen to hold their spot the match was an arm wrestle. 18
The wide expanses of Eltham College usually equates to a fast free-flowing affair, with this game being the exception. Both sides combined for a total of 14 goals with only four kicked in the second half. This would not have bothered the Turtles one bit. They led from start to finish and did just enough to get over the line and reclaim their spot in the four. St Mary’s Salesian again showed their attacking prowess at home as they piled on 15 first half goals in a dominant display. With the start of the game delayed by 30 minutes due to an incident in the reserves; players, coaches and fans alike had to cool their jets. When the game finally got under way it was all St Mary’s. The Saints’ onballers were outstanding around the stoppages and continually pumped the ball inside 50 where the forwards did the rest. The JOCs’ backline battled manfully but were continually under siege and outnumbered. The dam wall broke and the Saints forwards such as McLean, Strangward and Holmes capitalised, kicking 14 between them. At half-time St Johns found themselves 87 points down and searching for answers. To their credit they came out after the break with greater vigour and intent and actually won the second half by two goals. The game might have been shot but a little bit of respect restored. St Mary’s were simply given too much time and space and showed just how dangerous they are when allowed the game on their terms. At Garvey Oval it was “Same Bat-Time, same Bat-Channel” as Dave Boundy kicked a bag and Old Paradians again put on a dominant display. The Raiders won their seventh on the trot and couldn’t be better placed for a top of the table DIVISION 2 — TIPS IN BOLD (YEARS TOTAL 30/75%) Monash Gryphons v St Mary’s Salesian

clash. Monash were always going to be up against it, with the positive being their third quarter performance but not much else to hang their hat on. Paradians smashed them from the start with a commanding seven goal first quarter and finished them off with six in the last. The end result...a thumping 73 point win. When top plays bottom in any competition the result is almost a fait accompli and Kew against Glen Eira went to script. To Glen Eira’s credit they gave a strong contest but were simply outclassed. The Bears were wasteful in front of goal again but the result was never in doubt. Maibaum and Brazzale combined for nine and a host of
DIVISION 2
Everyone loves a top of the table clash, be that at AFL level or Division 2 VAFA and Kew hosting Old Paradians looms as a belter. With the Bears not having lost this year and the Raiders on a seven game winning streak, someone’s streak will be broken but not without a fight. It will be the Bears for mine but the Dave Boundy led Raiders will be in it up to their ears and an upset wouldn’t surprise.

DIVISION 3
Kris Neil
@KrisANeil
MID-SEASON MOMENTUM With the Queen’s birthday break done and dusted, several teams in Division 3 will be looking to regain composure and get their season back on track. Richmond Central heads a troop of faltering squads, losing four games in a row following their unbeaten start to the year. Last year’s Division 4 grand finalists Eley Park are another side that could be left wondering ‘what if’ after losing three games by fewer than two goals so far. In contrast, Emmaus would have preferred to play through the week off, using South Mornington to propel themselves to five consecutive wins from round four onwards. With four rounds until clubs get another week off, this patch of games will shape Division 3 in 2014.
REVIEW UHS-VU climbed a rung on the ladder with a percentage boosting 127-point win over South Mornington at Citation Oval. The Vulture’s Rhys Kirk was the star of the show in the thumping, piling on 10 of his team’s 25 goals for the game. Despite the margin, it was a sour day for Uni High after one of their players suffered a broken neck in an accidental collision in the Club XVIII match. UHS-VU is alongside three other teams with six wins from their first eight games of the season. Aquinas headed into the break with a head full of steam following their 34-point victory over La Trobe at La Trobe University. The win gives the Bloods their fourth win in a row, extending a quality run of form for the club. Two of the competition’s star forwards entertained the crowd in the clash with Jack McMeel and Sam Williams kicking six and five goals respectively. Jai Perrett was the best player on the ground for the Bloods who boast an array of talent set to make returns following the bye. In the biggest upset of round eight, Albert Park notched up just their second win of the season in a 44-point victory at Beaurepaire Pavilion. The Sharks have struggled in the absence of Division 3 leading goalkicker Noel Bahnsen, and this was evident against as they registered just 46 points for the afternoon. Chris Olson was a clear best for the Sharks while the Cattle’s were both influential for Albert Park. Both teams will need to hit their straps if they are to catch the top six and feature in the finals. 20

Emmaus St Leos sent shivers down the collective spines of the competition’s other clubs. The Animals easily accounted for Power House in an 88-point win at Ross Gregory Oval. Both teams had four consecutive wins heading into the clash, however Al Sutherland’s Animals had all the answers in the round eight match-up. While the result was never in doubt, most of the damage was done in a rampant final quarter by the Animals, kicking 48 unanswered points for the term. Onballer Nic Robin was Emmaus’ best player for the afternoon. What loomed as the game of the round didn’t disappoint as Swinburne University won by 25-points over Richmond Central in a high quality clash at St James Park. The Razorbacks’ Jackson Manning enjoyed a return to form with seven majors following an injury-interrupted few weeks, while Ben Higgins intercepted everything across half-back. For the Snakes, Woody Bucci and Dane Roy caused headaches for the Swinburne defence combining for 12 goals for the game. The Snakes now sit in eighth position and will be looking forward to re-capturing their early season form in the next four weeks. The Northern Blues used a strong final quarter to stay at the top of the ladder, defeating St Francis Xavier by 41-points at Ruthven Reserve. Despite the X-Men getting to within two goals of the Blues at the final change, they were unable to take the lead at any stage of the game. Damon Marcon (3 goals) and James King were catalysts for the Blues across the midfield, while Reed Jepson excelled yet again in his key position role. Dimitri Dimakopolous was instrumental for St Francis with four goals and brilliant stoppage work. The X-Men now sit sixth on the ladder with four wins, ahead of Power House and Richmond Central on percentage alone.

Please email your match reports, thoughts and feelings by Sunday afternoon to krisneil@live.com,au
PREVIEW Aquinas v South Mornington: Aquinas is currently fourth on percentage, however a big win over South Mornington in round nine should see them move up into at least third position.
Richmond Central v Power House: The break couldn’t come quick enough for Richmond Central, the Snakes should have regrouped and will be ready to take on Power House.
Emmaus St Leos v St Francis Xavier: Form suggests that St Francis don’t have the firepower to overcome the streaking Emmaus. A win would make it six in a row.
Northern Blues v La Trobe University: The Blues seem to be doing it comfortably at the moment, so the Trobers will need to be clicking on all cylinders to take it up to them at home.
UHS-VU v Albert Park: UHS-VU will need to come prepared against Albert Park on the back of their surprise victory over Eley Park. A win will keep them in touch of the competitions leaders.
Eley Park Sharks v Swinburne University: Swinburne will be hoping to jump out of the blocks again against an Eley Park side struggling with consistency.

HAWKS SOAR TO OUTRIGHT FIRST World Cup warm ups, State of Origin, Thursday night footy, the pointy end of the Indian Premier League – with a big week in sport in the lead up, it comes as no surprise that a few teams looked reasonably lethargic over the course of the round. Most games ended up as one sided as a tennis ball, not least of which the highly anticipated ‘match of the season’. The previously undefeated West Brunswick, were taught a lesson in football by the club heavily favoured to become dux of the class of 2014, Hawthorn. Down the ladder, both of the Cobras have slithered their way into the top four ahead of their showdown this weekend, whilst the middle of the competition appears to be as congested as Ned Flanders’ bomb shelter. The Bulls continued their disappointing 2014 form, cannon fodder for the competition newcomers. James Evans, Peter Webb and James Davis were busy for North Brunswick, but were no match for a Cobras outfit who strangled them for time, space and opportunity. Canterbury boasted eleven separate goal scorers who saw plenty of the footy thanks largely to the tireless efforts of Jeremy Gillen. Brett Johnson was dangerous early, picking up five first half goals whilst Andrew Baker collected four of his own. Canterbury will have enjoyed a well-earned break with an eye to a game that promises to be a blockbuster against their namesakes at Koonung Reserve. After a resounding win last up against Chadstone, Box Hill North was brought back to reality by a determined Manningham. The Cobras, desperate to put a disappointing showing against Hawthorn behind them, were slow to start, failing to kick a goal in the first term. A seven goal second quarter got them back on track, and from there the result never looked in doubt. Michael Davies was the most dangerous Cobra on the park, helping himself to four goals for the afternoon. Davies was well supported by Adam Pianto, Scott Newton and Luke Jones who created and capitalised on numerous opportunities. Michael Tilley, Scott Howe and Sean Donovan were gallant in defeat, but proved to be lonely figures for Box Hill North. 22

A red-hot Dragons outfit enjoyed their third win of the year against an undermanned Westbourne Grammarians side who looked ready for a week off. Having started the season so promisingly, Grammarians have won only one of their last five matches. The weekly improver Thomas Lowden lead the way for the Dragons with six goals and was ably supported up front by the ever-reliable Huy Vuong. For Grammarians Richard Binney was outstanding in his first game in the seniors for 2014, whilst Daniel White and Justin Johns caused headaches for the Dragons in front of goal. The Hawks moved to outright first, easily accounting for their fellow undefeated counterparts West Brunswick at Rathmines. As the scoreboard reflected, the distance between Division 4’s top two sides is far greater than the four competition points that the ladder would suggest. The Pies stayed in touch throughout the afternoon, but Hawthorn never really looked threatened. With the game still up for grabs at three quarter time, Hawthorn sunk the boot in with nine majors in the last to put an exclamation mark next to their name as competition favourites. Henry Paez (four goals), Mitch Simpson and Jack Nulty toiled hard for the Pies, but they were simply outclassed by the Hawks. Sam Gold was unstoppable as he kicked ten and Jason Ince, despite extra attention throughout the day, collected six of his own. West Brunswick will be looking to put this result behind them and no doubt enjoyed a timely week away from footy. The Bulldogs comfortably accounted for a hardworking Chadstone. Haydn Wilkinson and Julian Mandahl spearheaded the Point Cook assault collecting six goals each. They were well supported by Matthew Smith and Jake Perrins DIVISION 4 — TIPS IN BOLD (YEARS TOTAL 34/85%) Chadstone v Dragons Manningham Cobras v Canterbury West Brunswick v Box Hill North Point Cook v North Brunswick Westbourne Grammarians v Hawthorn

who were busy throughout the afternoon. The old firm stuck solid for the Synners with Brett Polkinghorne and Nick Boothman setting the example for their fellow clubmen. Point Cook have now won two in a row and are presented with a strong chance to extend that run when they play North Brunswick in the first week after the break. The Synners will make the most of a much needed break in an effort to rejuvenate themselves as they chase that illusive first win of the year.
that they are denied the opportunity to consolidate their momentum, a week’s rest is just what most teams in the competition were after. A chance to rejuvenate, refine and refresh could be just what other Premiership hopefuls need to bridge the gap between themselves and the rampant Hawks, who after last year, know there is still much more water to go under the bridge in 2014.
The opportunity to let one’s hair down on a Friday evening, sleep in on a Monday morning and wish Queen Elizabeth II a ‘Happy Birthday’ has drawn a mixed response from the Division 4 competition. Whilst some teams are understandably frustrated

CLUB WAREHOUSE RISING STAR 2014 OSCAR PERSSON – DE LA SALLE Oscar Persson joined De La Salle in 2011 from St Kilda City juniors, and it was the following year that Oscar began to make his mark. He became a key member of the U19 Premiership side in 2012 for De La Salle, playing predominantly in the ruck. In 2013, Oscar moved to Sandringham VFL, breaking into the senior team late in the season and being named amongst the best players in his debut game. Somewhat surprising, and to the great benefit of De La Salle, Oscar has been required for only 1 VFL Development League game this season, spending the remaining 6 rounds with De La Salle. Based on recent form at De La Salle, a recall back into the VFL shouldn’t be too far away. Oscar is hard working, mobile ruckman with excellent skills, great stamina and footy ‘smarts’. Just 19 years old, Oscar is sure to have a big future in football, either in the VAFA or at a higher level.
* to be eligible for the club Warehouse Rising Star, a player must be born no earlier than 1991 and playing his first full season of senior football.
VAFA ELASTOPLAST TRAINER OF THE WEEK ALANA HEINZ - UNIVERSITY BLACKS Alana has given three great years of service to the University Blacks Football Club. An exercise science graduate, Alana took on the role of head trainer at the club this year and has done an exceptional job of training and managing a host of new trainers. This is reflected by the performance of all trainers under her watch this year. She is known around the club for her friendly and approachable demeanour and she can be relied on to do what is needed with a great deal of skill and care. Alana finishes up at the club this week as she is heading overseas. She will be greatly missed and everyone at the Blacks wishes her all the best on her travels!

RETROSPECTIVE
Geoff Reilley
@GeoffreyReilley
5 YEARS AGO – 2009 In A Section, It was an important game between Marcellin and Old Essendon as the losers would sink further into the relegation area. Old Essendon started better and led narrowly at quarter time but gave up the lead by the main break. Essendon with the wind, kicked again in the third term and thwarted the Marcellin endeavours in the final quarter to take the 4 points. Best – Geister (5), Day, Flaherty (3), Cooper, Biggs, Skurrie (Old Essendon) and L Considine, Marson, McLaren, S Considine, Crapper, M Bortolotto (Marcellin). In a round of upsets and boilovers perhaps the biggest surprise was the Old Haileybury victory over St Bernards 15.12 to 11.11. Although not removing St Bernards from the top position, it certainly helped Haileybury clear themselves a little from the relegation area.
10 YEARS AGO – 2004 In C Section, MHSOB were too strong for AJAX 10.6 to 6.6 in a low scoring match. Best – Taylor, Cassell, Hogan, Thompson, Hamilton-Ho, Rosman (MHS) and Blieden, Ritterman, Klein, Rapoport, Vanaken, Blashki (A).
Whitefriars’ outstanding young U19 spearhead, Mark Robinson, broke his Club’s goalkicking record for the second time in 3 weeks with 13 goals against NOBS.
30 YEARS AGO – 1984 Windy conditions saw hitherto undefeated U19 teams, Marcellin (Zone 1) and BulleenTemplestowe (Zone 2) come to grief. An inaccurate Ormond won with the last kick of the day to defeat Old Xaverians in A Section, 11.21 to 13.5. Best – Kingston, P Mehrten, Ritchie (Ormond) and Corcoran, Phil Prowse, Woodruff (Xavs).
40 YEARS AGO – 1974 B Section boasted some well known names within their coaching ranks – Ross Oakley later of AFL fame as an administrator was in charge at Collegians; Graeme Johnston (ex Essendon) at De La Salle; John Fisher (ex Hawthorn) at Kew; John Dunshea (ex Hawthorn) at Old Carey and Alex Gardiner (ex Footscray) at Old Trinity.
One of Therry Penola’s greatest ever players, Mick Goodwin, played his 250th game. Mick was a four time best and fairest for his club. Uni Blacks ‘kicked the sweep’ in D1 section and pounded Prahran 19.21 to 4.5 on a day when low scores were the ‘norm’. Best – S Walch, Bevacqua (3), Savige (4), Lalich, Middleton, Smith (Blacks) and A Pitts, Sleight, Harrison, Plummer, Radywonik (P).
PROUD SPONSOR OF VAFA
20 YEARS AGO – 1994 Old Camberwell went into the top four in D Section when they easily accounted for Parkside 21.14 to 12.11 and “Doc” Inkster kicked another bag of 11.

In a battle of the cellar dwellers Old Melburnians took the chocolates by 1 point at St Bedes/Mentone, recording their first win of the season and giving them plenty of confidence going into the back end of the year. Kleiman (2) was the only multiple goal kicker with Clarke, Heggen and Madsen best on ground. The same names popped up for St Bedes with Iudica and Caia once again best. A 7 goal to 2 first term from St Kevin’s was enough of a buffer to ensure they went home winners against a dogged Old Scotch. Daggian again kicked a bag (5 goals) for
@jdonohoe12 the home side. Canterbury booted 5 of his own for SKOBS. St Bernards had 12 different goal kickers in an 11 goal win against Beaumaris. Colaco booted 4 and picked up best on ground honours. The Sharks have faltered a little bit lately after promising early season form. Old Xaverians took on De La Salle for the second time in 4 weeks and the result was similar to the last time, Xavs proving too strong at home. Jeremy Hannan proved too strong for the De La defence with a 7-goal performance. Andy Cannon was his ruthless self with 2 majors and plenty of drive through the middle. Howard managed 3 for De La with Commins and McGraw in the best.
U19 Section 2 Report
@LewisEmmerson Old Brighton registered off a determined Whitefriars by 4 points. Blacks’ a 28-point victory over Harry King was brilliant yet again for his mob, Caulfield Gr. Brighton’s Jack while Whitefriars Declan Power fought valiantly Rutter booted 3 goals whilst for the Friars. Parkdale squandered the chance Kosmo Malignaggi was solid to cement themselves deep within the top four as he kicked 3 for the Fields. with an 8-point loss to a stampeding Collegians Fitzroy pumped Mazenod by 71-points. The win side. Parkdale’s James Everest almost provided sees them breathing down Old Trinity’s neck for top spot. Joe Hill, back after missing two the catalyst the Vultures needed but it was Ed Rice weeks, dominated with 5 goals in a best afield who proved the difference for Collegians. In the performance for the Roys. University Blacks were top of the table clash Old Trinity beat University desperate for a win to keep within reach of the Blues by 27-points. There was no stopping Trinity’s finals race. They produced just that in a match goal-kicking combo of Joe Campbell and Sam that went down to the wire with Blacks holding Joyce who slotted 5 and 4 goals respectively.
U19 Section 3 with Tom Connolly @tomconnolly15
Two weeks ago seems like an eternity and that probably suits Old Ivanhoe who would be trying to forget their first loss of the year. Old Ivanhoe went down to Williamstown CYMS by 20 points to throw the section wide open again. Ebinger kicked 9 for the day and was best on ground and Christakakis carried on his form from the previous round kicking 4 goals. The combination of 13 goals from the pair aided Williamstown in their win. Old Carey had a convincing 43 point win over the AJAX, Nixon 44
kicked 9 for Old Carey and Joel managed 3 for AJAX. AJAX didn’t kick a goal for the first half which was always going to be tough to come back from. Old Camberwell defeated Old Xaverians by 5 goals, Taverner kicked 8 for Old Camberwell who led the whole day. Marcellin are starting to get a few wins together, this week their victim was St Mary’s Salesian who lost to the Eagles by 93 points. Burns kicked six goals for the day in a winning side and Edwards for Marcellin was best on ground. With the Queen’s Birthday done and dusted, four more weeks of important matches await us before another break. THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2014

UMPIRES
Steve McCarthy & Kit Harvey
@VAFAUA
announcing a wonderful guest speaker in the next few weeks.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, LIZZY VAFA footy is back (again!) after a brief hiatus. Thank goodness. When an AFL team has a bye, it can be hard to know what might happen on the field the following week. It can be a seasondefining juncture. When an entire competition has a mid-season break, like the VAFA over the Queen’s Birthday weekend, there’s a definite possibility of some unpredictable performances. The good news is it wasn’t a complete week off for the umpires. We had a detailed coaching session on Tuesday to ensure we are fresh and ready to pick up where we left off! STATE GAME APPOINTMENTS Congratulations to Field Umpire David Lepair who was appointed to umpire the AFL Queensland vs VAFA Senior Representative Match on Sunday 8 June 2014. The match was played at the Moreton Bay Regional Sports Complex located just north of Brisbane. A further congratulations to Field Umpire Sam Levin who was appointed to umpire the AAFC Under 23 Tasmania vs VAFA Under 23 Representative Match on Saturday 7 June 2014. The match was played at North Hobart Oval. Both David and Sam represented the VAFA and VAFAUA well in their respective matches! PRE-FINALS DINNER The 2014 VAFAUA Pre Finals Dinner is to be held on Monday 25 August in the Members Dining Room at the MCG. This is a compulsory event for all umpires. All members will have their pay deducted for this event in the pay run in the week commencing 4 August. Umpires who are unable to attend MUST email through their apology to Russell Davidson prior to 1 August – russelldavidson@haileybury.vic.edu. au. Failure to do this will result in pay being deducted, regardless of attendance at the event. No exceptions. The cost of the dinner is as follows; All umpires : $68; Parents of umpires aged 17 and under: $45; Partners: $75. Parents and partners are most welcome to attend this event. Please notify Russell Davidson if you wish to bring anyone along. We hope to be 52
TUGGERUS STUFFUPUS Recently Peter (Tugger) Pullen ran his 200th VAFA game, and we were nice to him!! Things are a little slow, and it’s time to get stuck into him again. You would think that an umpire with all those games up would be beyond the major stuff up, wouldn’t you?? Well you would be wrong. At a recent South Metro Junior Football League under 14 game an East Brighton kid copped a sling tackle off the ball, Tugger paid the free, before a St Bede’s player grabbed the ball and took off, what did Tugger do? Called “play on advantage” to the wrong side!!! Two possessions later a goal was scored for St Bede’s and yes Tugger called all clear, and then realised what he had done. He did correct it, got the goalie to cross his flags, cancel the score, and play continued with the East Brighton free now correctly given. Just as well he did correct it because the game ended in a draw!!! Got away with it ay? Well not quite! Watching the game was the Director of Umpiring for the SMJFL, OOPS. And just for good measure the coach of East Brighton under 14’s is ex St Kilda AFL coach Grant Thomas. Double OOPS. If you are going to stuff up you may as well do it properly in front of the right people. Maybe the next Laws of the Game Quiz question should be how to correct a score? At least Tugger will know the answer. LAWS OF THE GAME QUIZ #3 Last week’s Laws of the Game Quiz question: In a VAFA match, a player count reveals that one team has more than the permitted number of players on the field. What is the consequence for the offending team? The correct answer was option C: a free kick is awarded to the opposition captain, which is taken at the top of his team’s attacking goal square.
THIS WEEK’S QUESTION: At a field ball up, the defending ruckman punches the ball, which hits the goal post on the full. What happens next? a) The field umpire gives the all clear for a behind b) The field umpire pays a deliberate rushed behind with the free kick taken at the centre of the goal line c) The field umpire pays a deliberate rushed behind with the free kick taken in line with the goal post which was hit by the ball.

FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS As we headed into the bye round, all teams were eager for the four points. Brens Oval produced a low scoring affair between UHS VU and St Bernards as only a goal separated both teams up until half time, as UHS VU had a three point lead at the last change. The Snowdogs outscored their opponents in the last by two goals to claim a five point victory. Credit to the Uni boys who were impressive against the second placed Snowdogs. Coming off a win, Uni Blues displayed some great football against Williamstown CYMS. Blues had the lead for three quarters but the CY’s recovered in the last to steal the victory from the Blues by 14 points. Jordan Tripodi kicked two and claimed best afield honours for the CY’s, whilst Luke Chomley was best for University Blues. Mazenod continued with their victorious charge, collecting a 63 point win over Old Paradians. Only a goal separated both sides at quarter time, as the Nodders produced a big second quarter kicking six goals to none which set up their victory. Another outstanding performance from Josh Swainson kicking four, as Elijah Van Rensburg was best afield. In the battle between third and fourth placed Westbourne Gr and Point Cook, the Grammarians were outstanding away from home, led by Tom Kitson and Mitch Gatti kicking 4 a piece in the 91 point win.

NO TURNING BACK At the half way mark of the Season, Section 1 competition seems very settled as do three of the top four spots in the Section 3 ladder. The Section 2 ladder remains in a state of flux as Round 8 results changed five of the six ladder places. With the break behind them, clubs now face the final seven rounds with renewed enthusiasm.
their afternoon in the balmy seaside weather at Williamstown. The “ C.Y.’s, who led the ladder into the round trailed throughout as “The Animals” played consistently for the four quarters. Five goals by Robert Hughes and another solid display by Mark Petryk paved the way for the 65 point “Animal” victory.
ROUND 8 REVIEW
SECTION 3 Kew moved to third when, despite a fourth quarter fade out, they outplayed Melbourne High School Old Boys to win by seven points. James Considine with five goals contributed well to the Kew victory. Premiership contenders, North Old Boys/ St Patrick’s led throughout their match against University High School/ V.U. as they moved to a 107 point victory. As has happened before, University High School/ V.U. lacked the forward skill to convert their opportunities. North Old Boy’s/ St Patrick’s Captain and leading goal kicker, Todd McLeod (6 goals), Brenton Lawty and Manisha Karunatne were best. The losers were well served by: William Cheeesman, Chris. Marchio and the consistent Shaquille Parker. Special mention must go to UHS-VU player Lachlan St Clair who unfortunately broke two vertebrae in his neck. The accidental injury whilst very serious should see Lachlan make a full recorvery. Everyone has their thoughts and best wishes to Lachlan and the Zookeepers. IN the final game, Dragons forfeited to La Trobe University.
SECTION 1 The dominance of the leading three teams was again demonstrated when they each scored a resounding victory. Leaders, Hawthorn handed an 83 point defeat to fourth placed Prahran/ Assumption. Hawthorn, who built an early lead, were never in danger against the “Two Blues” Anthony Marguccio with eleven goals had a day out for Hawthorn, while section leading goal kicker, Ari Mitropoulos kicked a lazy six goals. Old Xaverians, built a winning lead over Masala in the first quarter and continued to build it throughout the last three quarters. At the final siren, the “Crocodiles” were in front by 133 points. Mt Lilydale were untroubled by the wide wings of Como Park as they outplayed Old Geelong and won by 61 points. SECTION 2 Richmond Central scored a meritorious win by five points over Therry Penola. The game proved to be a tight contest where scores were virtually even through the first three quarters. Straighter kicking by Richmond Central in the last saw them home and up the ladder to second. Matthew Sandilands with five goals was a vital component in the Richmond Central victory. For Therry Penola, their narrow loss sent them down to fifth place on percentage. Yet to win, Bulleen Templestowe troubled Eley Park throughout their match. Joshua Brown’s four goals proved vital in the “Sharks” eight point victory. For the “Bullants” victory in 2014 can’t be far away. Emmaus/ St Leo’s enjoyed 58
PREVIEW OF ROUND 8 SECTION 1 I expect Old Xaverians to comfortably defeat Old Geelong, whose 2014 performances have not matched those of the Xaverians. Prahran/ Assumption should build valuable percentage at the expense of Masala, who are struggling to produce the required standard Leaders, Hawthorn should maintain their unbeaten record by defeating third placed, Mt Lilydale. THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2014
SECTION 1 TIPS IN BOLD (YEARS TOTAL 22/92%) Old Xaverians v Old Geelong Prahran Assumption v Masala Hawthorn v Mt Lilydale
SECTION 2 Early morning matches are the order of the day. Second placed, Richmond Central should defeat fourth placed Eley Park on the Bartlett Reserve. Williamstown C.Y.M.S. should return to the winning list by defeating Therry Penola on the Fearon Reserve. Therry Penola will give stern opposition because a win could well promote them into the top four. Leaders, Emmaus/ St Leo’s should possess sufficient skill to defeat the winless, Bulleen Templestowe, who despite evident improvement, have yet to score premiership points. SECTION 2 TIPS IN BOLD (YEARS TOTAL 15/63%) Emmaus St Leos v Bulleen Templestowe Williamstown CYMS v Therry Penola Richmond Central v Eley Park
SECTION 3 Leaders, La Trobe University should prove too talented and running fit for third placed Kew on the huge La Trobe Oval. This match is scheduled to be played under lights on Friday evening, another factor which should aid the home team. Second placed, North Old Boys/ St Patrick’s should be untroubled to defeat the yet to win Dragons on the Gillon Oval. I expect an even contest between the alumni of two prestigious Government Secondary Schools when University host Melbourne. University High School/ V.U. often has trouble converting chances and today they must convert as defeat surely will mean no final in 2014. Without any conviction, my selection is Melbourne High School Old Boys. TIPS IN BOLD (YEARS TOTAL 21/88%) La Trobe Uni v Kew NOB/St Pat’s v Dragons UHS-VU v MHSOB
