CHANGE FOR OUR CLIENTS

PRESIDENT’S NOTE

Tim Nelson

INTRODUCING TIM NELSON I am honoured to be appointed and entrusted to the role of President of the VAFA. The VAFA has an outstanding heritage and an unparalleled football sporting brand across Melbourne. As the leader of the Board, my goal is to ensure we preserve the traditions of the past, whilst navigating change to create our own future and a history that all players, clubs, administrators and the wider amateur community can be proud of. I have no doubt we are all part of the best community football competition in Victoria and our aspiration over the next five years should be to extend our advantage.

I would like to acknowledge the tireless energy and enthusiasm of Michael Hazell, who has done an outstanding job in developing the competition to the next level across so many facets.

Throughout his Presidency Michael has ensured the competition has remained financially robust through an increase in commercial sponsorships.

In addition, he has championed club volunteers and overseen an increased investment in umpiring. A hallmark of Michael’s leadership was that he continued to challenge the status quo and stimulate creative ideas at Board level, with the clubs, players and volunteers always at the core. I am pleased Michael has agreed to stay on the Board for the balance of the year to steer me through the transition.

As a Board we will continue to build on Michael’s legacy, looking to further strengthen our umpire numbers, create new commercial opportunities, protect our amateur status, engage with clubs and offer our best players the opportunities to shine via representative football.

However, the football landscape in Melbourne continues to change and we are confronted by any number of threats to our great game; be it

our ability to attract players, sponsors, volunteers, administrators and umpires, find suitable grounds, value amateurism, or simply address the threat from other sporting or entertainment options.

Everyone is spoilt for choice and is time poor and we have to find ways to get more people back involved in footy. It is the view of the Board that the VAFA and our wider community can play a central and proactive leadership role in shaping the future of our great game in Melbourne. To that end, one of the critical tasks the Board will be undertaking immediately is the development and adoption of a new strategic plan as we look forward to 2020. I believe with consultation we can develop a strategic and operational blueprint that not only takes heed of our challenges and builds on our traditions, but forges new opportunity for continued growth and expansion.

That said, we cannot lose sight of the essence of what we do – play footy! My personal experience of VAFA encompassed the top grades, senior footy, reserves footy and even Club 18. I’d still play today if I could. Whilst the standard of play may be different, in my experience everyone played because they loved footy, enjoyed the camaraderie of their mates, enjoyed the comfort and collegial nature of a club environment, established a network of family and friends that opened life’s opportunities and tasted the spoils of winning and losing - of being part of something unique and hard to define. After a number of years away from the VAFA interstate and overseas I returned to accept a Board role in 2010. Many people asked me why? There’s your answer!

We have an exciting season ahead and I look forward to working you with you all.

Good luck to everyone. Go out and embrace footy while you can.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY YOUR HIGHNESS So what have we learnt from the opening eight rounds. Blacks and Collegians are certainly forces to be reckoned with. Since a slow start from last year’s Grand Finalists, both have not lost a game in the past month. Old Xavs’ form has been up and down. Brilliant some weeks, lacking penetration or bite in a few others. Blues and the Cardinals were the pacesetters early but now haven’t won a game in five! Beaumaris have been playing well but until last week had little to show for it. The Sharks are not done with yet, they could still push on up the table as the Aquarium is a tough place to play. De La Salle have been luckless and despite good patches, they are a team that has seemingly forgotten how to win. Old Carey is also a mixed bag. Their skills lauded one week, only for them to disappear the next. Nevertheless the Panthers are still in the mix. St Bernard’s look a better side and are in the same spot as this time last year, although they seem to not be as dominant. Time will tell but the Snowdogs are going about their business quietly. Old Trinity is in unchartered territory. Never before have they topped the table at this point of the year. The T’s could be the story of 2015. Unfortunately that story took a turn last week with the heartbreaking news that their skipper and talisman Brendan Iezzi will miss the season with a knee reconstruction. How will the T’s respond? The next three-week period before the two-week winter break should reveal all. For the rest it’s a chance to put some valuable runs on the board as there are finals spots to secure and relegation to avoid.

Old Trinity won their seventh match of the season with only two fit players on the bench from quarter time. Both Iezzi and Jack Osborn suffered knee injuries, with Osborn fortunate to likely miss only a few weeks. Nevertheless, Xavs commenced the game in a positive fashion, but eventually were worn down by a creative and hard running Old Trinity. Xavs only managed their second goal half way through the third quarter and whilst Old Trinity hadn’t exactly piled them on, they did have the match in control. Jakob Steinhart was involved in almost every scoring foray for Old Trinity as he roamed the outer wing of the Daley. Andrew 2

@ Lennytalk Kyriacopoulos grows in stature with every game and Greek connection continues to be amongst the better players and goalkickers for Old Trinity.

For Xavs, as Old Trinity’s pressure and two way running increased, so too did the skill errors and turnovers from the red and blacks. Prowse won plenty of the ball, and a certain J. Mercuri was back in the senior side, but Xavs are missing that explosive player that blows the game open.

Old Carey will mark it down as a bad day, 0.12 in the first half, became 0.13 at three quarter time and 3.16 by the final siren. Thank goodness they finally kicked a goal otherwise it would have taken all the Queen’s Birthday weekend to find the last time a William Buck Premier side was held goalless in a game. Or are we not giving Blacks the appropriate credit for their eventual 103 point win? Blacks were certainly good and grew in confidence with every Carey turnover, but even they might not take too much out of this win. It was scarcely believable that a side like Carey had already shown to be this year, could offer up a performance such as they did. Blacks didn’t do anything outrageous, nor was Carey’s intensity lacking in the opening minutes, it was just mistakes compounded like interest rates in the 1980’s. Blacks made Carey pay and that was all she wrote. Bede Mahon broke from packs like his best form of 2014, Alistair Robbins has recovered from an early season knock and Charlie Richardson and Jordan Quaile have lifted their form each week.

Blacks are coming.

There was no way Old Scotch were going to roll over at the Snakepit, but their renewed enthusiasm for the contest was not enough to overcome a St Bernard’s side up and running. The Cardinals lack key defenders, a conclusion that can be drawn from the five goals to Chad Jones and four goals to Alex Boyse. Both were great focal points for the home side. Youngster Jonno Daggian kicked five goals and is a real live wire for the Cardinals, but he cannot be relied up to carry the load each week. Old Scotch were within striking distance at three quarter time but the WILLIAM BUCK PREMIER — TIPS IN BOLD De La Salle v Old Xaverians Old Scotch v University Blues Old Trinity v Beaumaris University Blacks v St Bernards Old Carey v Collegians

momentum and feel of the game always seemed in St Bernard’s control. The Snowdogs booted six final quarter goals with Michael Angel across half back and Nathan Kazuro playing well in the home side’s win.

De La Salle again looked good in large patches and their recent history against Collegians at the Trott augured well, especially when they held the advantage at half time. Another poor second half showing eventuated as the visitors failed to capitalise on their good work before the big break. Collegians closed to within a kick at orange time and De La Salle just had to find something.

They managed a couple of goals but they couldn’t prevent the Lions putting on five goals at the other end. Turnovers again the key for De La Salle.

Despite this, they did do some good things with the ball in hand and their season is not done with yet. They just need to hang tough and remember how to win. Nick Corp ended the day with four goals as his form continues to improve, whilst Shura Taft too bobbed up with another four-goal game. Charlie Holst is getting better every game

WILLIAM BUCK PREMIER

Beaumaris breathed life into their season with an important home win over Uni Blues. The match was put on hold for 20 minutes only two minutes I, as an ambulance was called to assist Blues defender, Jack Townley who suffered a head/neck injury. We understand that Jack is on the mend and thank you to the Beaumaris supporters that contacted the VAFA enquiring about his health.

The Sharks were able to break the game open in the second term, and were good enough to stay with Blues in scoreboard pressure from there on. Blues did challenge late and closed the gap to a couple of kicks but Beauy steadied and secured a vital win. The win has the Sharks just two points behind both the Blues and Cardinals in the race to avoid the bottom two. Tom Quinn was outstanding for Blues with six goals and Scott Gower slotted five goals of his own for the Sharks.

GOOD TIME FOR A BREAK I’m new to the Ammos, so I’m not sure whether it’s traditionally the time of year that clubs choose to introduce “new blood” but in a staggering stat, no less than 20 players made their 2015 season debut in Round 8. The Queen’s Birthday break has come at a good time for most clubs, to allow their players to rest and recuperate before a big second half of the season commences for Premier B. In the wash-up after a round of one-sided matches, the ladder makes for fascinating viewing. While SKOBs sit three games clear on top, the race for second is all tied up between the Tigers, Tonners and OMs, with the Rovers a game outside the four and just ahead of the rest of the pack. AJAX, Mazenod and Fitzroy all have three wins, with Caulfield and Parkdale bringing up the rear, just a game behind.

I don’t think I’ve ever anticipated an “eighth versus ninth” clash as much as I was looking forward to watching Fitzroy take on Parkdale at the Vultures Nest, such is the even nature of the Premier B competition. The Roys were coming off an impressive win against the Tigers, while Parkdale fell one point short of Mazenod and were keen to bounce back. Fitzroy started with the wind and took full advantage, kicking five goals to open up a handy lead. The middle stages of the game were not pretty. Fitzroy continued to dominate in the second term, and the Vultures forward line was empty as their forwards ventured down the field to try and get a kick. However, the Roys could not make the Vultures pay on the scoreboard, kicking nine straight behinds before they broke through late in the third quarter. The game was at times spiteful, when Vulture Jackson Boland was sent off in the third quarter for a hit on one of their beloved Roys, the Fitzroy supporters came to life. A rip-roaring halftime spray from Vultures coach Sam Radford failed to have any impact, and they kicked a solitary goal in the second half while Fitzroy finished with four goals to run out 54 point winners. Ross Borland and Luke Baker were excellent in their returns for Fitzroy, while Parkdale made six changes and Kane Bode was among the best in his first game for the season.

In an emphatic return to their best form, Old 4

@ DAChalmers81 Brighton shook off the lethargy that dogged their two previous matches, to second-placed Old Melburnians by 55 points at The Beach. The victory came on the back of a committed team effort and was all the more courageous as they finished the match with only seventeen players on the ground. The Tonners had winners in Ben Jakobi and Jon Perrett, who dominated across the centre, Charlie King played his best game for the year and an impassable defence conceded only two goals to the visitors after quarter-time. There was an immediate energy in the Tonners’ attack on the ball and they were tackling with an intensity missing from their clashes against Parkdale and AJAX. As a result OM’s couldn’t establish any rhythm, though they took a nine point lead to the first break, having kicked with the wind. The Tonners set up their victory in a dominant second term. Newcomer Jack Rutter made an impressive debut and kicked two of his four goals in this term and Michael Dewar, in his 150th game nailed his set shot with trademark efficiency. A 26 point lead at half-time, rather than being a buffer, became a launching pad for better things. When play resumed, spearhead Dan Anthony goaled from the boundary, then Michael Karayannis, in everything around the ground, dashed in for another. The Tonners were short on the bench going into the final term, yet it any such concern about lack of legs for the Brighton supporters was unfounded. Within minutes, Jack Rutter kicked his fourth, leading the Tonners to an impressive victory and they join the Tigers and OMs on five wins.

Mazenod snagged an exciting one-point win against Parkdale a week earlier and then found themselves up against the all-conquering St Kevins. It was always going to be a tall order but then they entered the game without two of their leading goalkickers and playmakers Josh Cowan and Ben Phibbs. It was another comprehensive performance from SKOBs, who had thirteen individual goalkickers and were led by Kelvin Williams with four and Phillip Edgar continued PREMIER B — TIPS IN BOLD Hampton Tovers v Fitzroy St Bedes/Mentone v Old Brighton Caulfield v AJAX Old Melburnians v Mazenod St Kevins v Parkdale

his excellent form. The Nodders debuted three players, and Scott Durdin and Matthew Sier were impressive first up.

year. Jake Lew kicked three in his milestone game, while David Fayman and Evgeni Routman were among the better Jackas.

AJAX and Hampton played the close one of the round at Gary Smorgon Oval. It was a big day for the Jackas, celebrating spearhead Jake Lew’s 100th game. Hampton made seven changes to the lineup that got thumped by Old Melburnians.

They welcomed back captain Leigh Fletcher and five Rovers played their first game for the year.

AJAX took the lead at quarter time thanks to the wind advantage but went scoreless in the second term as the Rovers took the lead. The game continued to see-saw and the Jackas snatched back a narrow lead in the third term but ultimately it wasn’t enough, with the Rovers running out 28 point winners and managing to keep in touch with the top four while staying slightly ahead of the chasing pack. Jay Ting and Daniel Corp continued their excellent form for the Rovers and Josh Verlin was impressive in his first game for the

St Bedes/Mentone have had an inconsistent month, yet they still find themselves second on the ladder. They went into their Round 8 encounter with a struggling Caulfield side without goal machines Michael Barnes and Jimmy Colyvan, while Caulfield made five changes and had four new players into the side. The Tigers dominated the first half, keeping the ‘Fields to one goal and setting up a comfortable lead at the main break.

Caulfield showed some resistance in the second half, kicking six goals, but the Tigers were still able to do as they pleased and finished with a 77 point victory. For Caulfield, Louis O’Keefe followed up his seven goals against St Kevins with another three and Tim Nixon continued his good form.

Luke Velluto kicked seven for the winners and Luke Terrell kicked three in his first match for the year.

OLD IVANHOE THRILLER EARNS TOP SPOT Last round drew some nail-biting finishes, none more so than Old Ivanhoe’s victory over Marcellin as the Eagles relinquished top spot to the Hoes who claimed pole position with their three point win. Elsewhere, Old Haileyburians survived a scare from Old Camberwell by a solitary point as the Wellers shot themselves in the foot, winning the scoring shots but losing the game; Williamstown CYMS got back onto the winners list over PEGS; Peninsula smashed Therry Penola at home; and Oakleigh surprised Monash to end Blues’ six game winning steak.

An undermanned Old Ivanhoe would’ve been dreading its match up against Marcellin. But on the field there were no signs of hiccups.

Marcellin however, had just that – hiccups that is – especially in front of goal. The Eagles kicked 2.6 in the first quarter and in the en, it arguably cost them the four points. Old Ivanhoe evened the scores at halftime before powering away in the third with seven goals to earn a 22 point buffer. Marcellin fought back in the last to set up a tense final term. Old Ivanhoe’s fullback Ritchie Butler proved a defining force in the last, leading the defence in some desperate play to keep Marcellin from snatching victory.

Old Camberwell’s rugged time in Premier C this season had looked to turn for the better. With its first win in Round 7, the Weller’s shaped up against Old Haileyburians in Round 8. Although the Bloods spoiled the party, winning by the slimmest of margins. In a low scoring, scrappy affair Old Haileybury secured a one point win. The margin never exceeded two goals throughout the game and goals were seemingly impossible to come by. This was the tale of the game - Old Camberwell finished with 24 scoring shots but one less goal. 5.19-49 looks as bad on paper as it would’ve felt during the game. Only positive for Old Camberwell is that it’s proved it can play better footy than their current 9th place suggests.

Williamstown CYMS returned to winning ways against PEGS following a forgettable first half of the season. The CY’s took an early advantage in the first quarter and kept that edge to the final siren. The two goal buffer became four in the second and the CY’s secured that advantage in the third. PEGS chipped away in the final term and won the quarter but couldn’t close the gap as Williamstown gained its second win of the season by 18 points. Nicholas Ebinger backed up his five goals from the previous week with another seven against PEGS in a best on performance and a Club Warehouse Rising Star Nomination to lift his team to victory.

Peninsula made light work of Therry Penola as one of Premier C’s top tier sides potentially ended another’s finals hopes. While Therry were kept goalless in the first, the Pirates racked up five of their own. The Lions’ troubles had only begun as it struggled to convert majors throughout the game, ending with only three goals. The Pirates’ strong defensive efforts were outdone by an even better offense with 12 goal kickers. The margin was extended at each change until finally reaching the total of 96 at game’s end. William Harbinson was best afield for Peninsula with his contribution, which was topped off with two goals.

Oakleigh provided the upset of the round with a victory over a recently rampant Monash Blues.

The first half was tight as Oakleigh stuck fat and held off Monash at home, taking a slender lead at both changes. Monash had opportunities to take the lead but missed crucial shots in front of goal.

In the second half Oakleigh began to suffocate Monash, refusing to give the Blues the space they needed as Oakleigh kicked the lead out to 12 PREMIER C — TIPS IN BOLD Old Ivanhoe v Williamstown CYMS Therry Penola v Monash Blues PEGS v Marcellin Old Haileyburians v Peninsula Oakleigh v Old Camberwell

points. Monash had faded completely in the last with the Krushers pushing its advantage beyond five goals midway through the term. Oakleigh held off the Blues from here to reap a 28 point win. Trent Bromley kicked a game-high five goals for the victors.

This week, Old Ivanhoe hosts Williamstown CYMS, the Hoes should secure the four points with relative ease in this one. Monash Blues travel to Therry Penola, Monash will return with a win after its streak was ended in Round 8. PEGS plays Marcellin, the Eagles to come home victorious.

Old Haileyburians face Peninsula, expect the Pirates to get the job done away from home.

Finally, Oakleigh take on Old Camberwell as the Krushers will make it two wins in a row.

FOR THE LOVE OF THE GAME

SANTIAGO BERNABÉU TO SPORTSCOVER ARENA It’s the silly season for European powerhouse football clubs as they al travel to various parts of the globe for lucrative off-season friendlies. Sydney hosted English Premier League Champions Chelsea and perennial top six finishers Tottenham. In a couple of weeks it will be Melbourne’s turn as the MCG gets ready to host the International Champions Cup with Spannish giants Real Madrid, Italian super club AS Roma and English nouveau rich club Manchester City will battle it out over three games. Word has it that Real Madrid scouted none other than Elsternwick Park’s Sportscover Arena as a potential training base for their stay in Melbourne. With so many Melbourne’s parks and grounds all open to the public, the European Champions League winners of 2014 were keen on Sportscover Arena’s privacy. However when the scout inspected the facilities and surface it was decided that the squad worth about $1 billion was not to be risked. Imagine Ronaldo, Bale and co kicking a ball on Sportscover Arena!

AMMO ODD SPOT Club XVIII Scribe Norm Nugent was trying to work out whether Ormond had played at West Brunswick before as they will do in Round 9. As Norm said, “I doubt an Ormond side has ever played on the Royal Park ovals on Park Street, they certainly have played on Brens Oval on the other side of the railway.” Well the closest they came was in the 1960’s.

In 1964, West Brunswick were in B section and Ormond in A Section.

Ormond were penalised many matches for playing an unregistered player in A Section that year. The player was seen on the televised match of the day from Olympic Park. The player had not disclosed his previous club (Norm thinks it was State Bank) when signing with Ormond. Ormond finished 9th and suffered relegation as a result and then took a few seasons to return to A Section. The Monders had three third place finishes in a row before they won the 1968 B Section flag. Unfortunately West Brunswick finished 10th in 1964 and were relegated from B Section thus preventing the two sides from ever meeting at senior level.

THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2015

REMEMBER WE ARE RUN ON VOLUNTEERS Some of you that Like the VAFA on Facebook will have seen the post below that the VAFA shared last week. It was written anonymously by a junior rugby league coach from Sydney, however the message holds true for the VAFA too. It’s worth remembering as we all resume footy after a weekend off cooling our heels.

Glenmore Park Brumbies JRLFC Letter from a Volunteer Coach “Today I heard a comment made about me behind my back. I started to turn around and look, but then decided better of it and kept my eyes on the field. My wife hears things like this more often than I do, because many of you don’t know who she is. She tells me what you say. I have received... angry emails & texts, full of “suggestions,” about who should be playing where and how I... lost that day’s game for the kids. I thought I’d write an open letter to all of you parents, even though I might never send it. I’ll start it this way: “I am a volunteer.”

I’m the one who answered the call when the club said they didn’t have enough coaches or managers. I understand that you were too busy. I have some news for you. I’m not retired. I’m busy too. I have other children and a job, just like you do. Not only do I not get paid to do this – it costs me money. I see you walk up to the game 15 minutes after it started, still dressed for work. Do you know I’ve already been here over an hour? Imagine if you had to leave work early nearly every day. I’ve never seen you at a training. I’m sure you’re plugging away at the office. But I’m out here, on the field, trying my best to teach these children how to play a sport they love, while my bank account suffers.

I know. I make mistakes. In fact, maybe I’m not even that great of a coach. But I treat the kids fairly and with respect. I am pretty sure they like coming THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2015

to my trainings and games, and without me or someone like me, there’d be no team for them to play on. I’m part of this community too and it’s no picnic being out here on this stage like this. It’s a lot easier back there with the other parents where no one is second-guessing you.

And I also know you think I give my son or daughter unfair advantages. I try not to. In fact, have you ever considered that maybe I’m harder on him than on the others? I’m sure he hears plenty of criticism at school from classmates, who hear it from you at home, about what a poor manager I am. And if, even unconsciously, my kids are getting a slight advantage because I know them better and trust their abilities, is that the worst thing in the world, considering the sacrifice I’m making? Trust me, I want to win too. I like to think I treat everyone equally, yes even the weaker players get a chance, after all, in my eyes, it’s all about inclusion After this game is over, I’ll be the last one to leave. I have to clear the pitch, put away all the equipment and make sure everyone has had a parent arrive to pick them up. There have been evenings when my son and I waited with a player until after dark before someone came to get them. Many nights I’m sure you’ve already had dinner and are relaxing on the couch by the time I finally kick the mud off my shoes and climb into my car, which hasn’t been washed or vacuumed for weeks. Why bother cleaning it during the season? Do you know how nice it would be if, just once, after a game one of you offered to carry the heavy gear bag to my car or help collect the balls, bibs or bottles?

If I sound angry, I’m not. I do this because I love it and I love being around the kids. There are plenty of rewards and I remind myself that while you’re at the office working, your kid is saying something that makes us all laugh or brings a tear to my eye.

The positives outweigh the negatives. I just wish sometime those who don’t choose to volunteer their time would leave the coaching to the few of us who do.”

LAUNCH OF THICK AND THIN

VAFA WEBSITE

As has been publicised on the VAFA website recently, a group of VAFA players have commenced an initiative called Thick and Thin.

Scott Sherwen (skipper at Old Scotch) and Simon Hogan (Uni Blacks Premiership midfielder) approached the VAFA last year about their plans to commence a player driven program called Thick and Thin. The aim of the program was simple, encourage guys at the football club to start the conversation about how they were feeling. “It’s a simple idea and one that resonates with both Hoges and I, there are so many young men that leave their problems and thoughts locked away and they don’t know where to start when it comes to dealing with what is going on in their world” Sherwen told vafa.com.au.

Finally thought we would let everyone know that the VAFA website issues over the first six rounds of the season have finally been resolved.

We apologise for the inconvenience this caused everyone on a Saturday night. We would also like to point out that last weekend for those complaining about the site being down this was actually the FootyWeb System where scores are entered and FoxSportsPulse controls this. We obviously host much of this FoxSportsPulse content (the results, laddes, fixtures) on our site and so can understand people thinking it was our site again, however this was not the case.

Thick and Thin are on Twitter @ThickandThinVic and also on Facebook and you can check out much of their work here: vafa.com.au/sponsor/ thick-thin/. Thick and Thin will have more information out shortly regarding their plan for a special socks round in the VAFA later this year.

Congratulations to De La Salle’s BEAU HILL and SAM MORWOOD – who have played their 150th games for the club. Beau was a member of the 2008 U19 Premiership team and has been presented with the coaches award on three occasions at both U19 and Reserve level. Sam was also an U19 Premiership player and is noted for his uncanny goal sense. Sam has recently returned to the club to assist with player development in DLS’s Thirds.

Congratulations to Old Brighton’s MICHAEL DEWAR – Michael joined the Club in 2006 and served an unusually long apprenticeship before establishing himself as a strong marking forward and Old Brighton’s most reliable man in front of goal.

Michael is enjoying the variety of roles he is being asked to play this year. He is an unassuming, smart footballer, who plays with courage and skill and is the man trusted to win a match with the last kick of the day. Well done Michael.

150

Congratulations to North Brunswick’s TROY GEARY – A no nonsense solid player who is used mainly as a tagger, Troy has been a rock in defense for the Bulls.

One of the famed ‘Craigieburn Boys’, Troy has been a great asset and clubman at Allard Park. Never one to shy away from a contest, he’s always willing to put his body on the line for the cause. A Reserves B&F winner, Troy has shown that he will do anything to further the Green and Gold. Well done Troy.

100

Congratulations to De La Salle’s MICHAEL DELUCA and STEVE BROWN – who have played their 100th games for the club. Michael was twice an U19 Premiership player and is known as one of the best kicks of the football at the club. Steve is one of four brothers to have played at De La Salle and after the demise of DLS’s Thirds last year, Steve was coaxed out of retirement to take the reigns as playing coach. Under his guidance they have become a viable and competitive team.

100

Congratulations to St Bernards’ JACK GAY – After playing his Junior footy at Strathmore, Jack joined his mates at St Bernards U19’s in 2010 before moving into the Senior ranks. Now in his sixth year at the club, Jack has developed into a great clubman on and off the field. All at ‘the pit’ wish Jack well in his milestone game and look forward to many more!

100

Congratulations to Prahran Assumption’s JAMES MUSSTER – Musster joined the Prahran-Caulfield U19’s, smoothly making the transition to Senior football despite his slight frame. His class and importance to the Two Blues was on display when he returned after eight months overseas in Round 4. Musster is part of the club’s leadership team and is respected for his work ethic on and off field. Musster won the 2011 Division 3 B&F in the Two Blues’ Premiership year.

100

Congratulations to Oakleigh’s GARY BENNETT – Gary played his 100th Senior game against Monash Blues in Round 8. Recruited from Oakleigh JFC, Gary played his first Senior game against AJAX in round 4, 2008.

‘WINTER IS COMING’ Living through a Melbourne winter is somewhat akin to a religious experience. We call on our sensuality more than ever. The smell of coffee on a cold morning, the feeling of cold hands on freezing steering wheels, the widespread shock at the sight of sleet on a July morning and sitting in the car, honking the horn as you watch your son plough his trade on a Saturday morning. We’ve reached winter, and with that we reluctantly welcome a new brand of footy. Not the delightful run and carry footy that dry conditions encourage, but old school pack footy. Tough, hard, slow play footy. For some, this is the type of news that brings dollars and shillings to their eyes. For most, it is the time when reminiscing on sunny days gone by and planning trips to a never-ending summer are all in an afternoon’s daydream.

The weekend of Round 8 indicated that teams are still adapting to the changing conditions, and it is clear that most teams are in dire need of a rest week to check in with preseason goals and objectives, as luck would have it, the Queen’s Birthday weekend gives us all a break. In Division 1, we’ve got two undefeated sides (Ormond and Kew) and one defeated, strung out side in Yarra Valley. In between that is a great ball of mess.

NOBS/St Pats sit fifth, with a disastrous percentage of 77.33% and Prahran Assumption remain rooted near the bottom of the table at 2-6 with a percentage of 100.13%.

The Clive Waterhouse between St Mary’s Salesian and Kew was an absolute gem of a clash. Both clubs have a healthy dislike for each other and considering 2014; it is pretty academic why they do. Kew, after being demolished in the semi final between the two sides last year, exacted revenge on Grand Final day. They reaffirmed their dominance in another Ferndale Park classic on Saturday with 38 goals kicked. Following a 30 man melee at quarter time, St Mary’s Salesian were left with 17 men due to an errant James Rogers’ elbow. That shifted the momentum firmly into Kew’s hand, with 9 goals to 3 kicked in the 2nd.

Liam Kinsella’s goal on the halftime siren left St Mary’s Salesian 35 points in arrears. The game turned from that point, with Holmes and the 16

@balmey21 return of Rogers sparking a strong turnaround for St Mary’s. It was through the middle where the game turned. Sidney Jones, locked down for most of the afternoon by Ned Rohrt, begun getting his hands on the pill and Charlie Angley displayed his flair from half back. Although I could discuss the intricacies of the game for pages and pages, it was Kew’s reinvigorated spread that ended St Mary’s valiant comeback, with Brazzale and Orchard putting the finishing touches on the game as Kew emerged as 25-point victors and remain undefeated.

NOBS/St Pats added more pain to Yarra Valley’s miserable 2015, comfortably winning by 42 points. Strong winds hounded both sides, leaving uncertainty in regard to what would be a strong enough quarter into the wind. It was NOBSPC’s late third term burst of 5 goals that was the difference and although the Bushrangers showed plenty of fight throughout the afternoon, it was stamina that betrayed them when they needed it most. Brenton ‘Meat Tray’ Hunt kicked a pivotal bag of 4 and Gerrard Bence played a huge game from CHB. For Yarra Valley, Nick Paton was solid with 4 in Matt Letson’s absence and Simon Yeo’s mobility was difficult for NOBS to handle.

Ormond continue to battle through a moderate injury crisis, as they secured their 8th win from 8 with a 29-point win over the resilient Bulleen Templestowe. I suppose that is a bit of an oxymoron. A moderate crisis is more likely to be something of a roadbump hit at about 50 kilometres an hour. Slight whiplash, but the pain will dissipate. That seems to summate the Ormond story. They’re undefeated and looking strong, but Rob Chisholm again injured himself and Vice Captain Alastair McCooke broke his leg in the seconds’ game. It was a scrappy outing against the Bullants, with 30 shots on goal to 11 in favour of the Monders. Matthew Martinov’s importance to the side’s structure again stood out, as he had another exceptional game in blustery conditions.

Clearly Ormond were in control from start to finish, but the Bullants won the second half with DIVISION 1 — TIPS IN BOLD Ormond v Whitefriars St Mary’s Salesian v Bulleen Templestowe Prahran Assumption v NOBS/St Pat’s Old Mentonians v Old Geelong Kew v Yarra Valley

another consistent effort from Paul Florance and Harry Vogler.

Prahran Assumption fell short of marking James Musster’s 100th game with a win as Old Geelong held firm against a Two Blues’ side proverbially throwing everything to stay in the chase for September action. Coming into the game at 2-5, it was pretty obvious that Prahran needed a scalp like the 3rd placed Old Geelong boys, but a 7-goal first quarter forced Prahran into the chasing position. Despite the best efforts of PA small forward John Robbins who was outstanding with 7.5, Samuel ‘Neil’ Youngman has surfaced as a quality young mid for Old Geelong and played an excellent game. Jack McMeel kicked 3 goals, along with Angus Smith and Alex Stewart. With the game on the line at ¾ time, four consecutive Old Geelong goals iced the game and turned into another heart-breaking procession for Prahran, who slip into the depths at 2-6.

Whitefriars spanked Old Mentonians by 80 points at Whitefriars College, as they had 12 individual goal kickers. Old Mentonians’ severe lack of depth

WILLIE BEE’S CLIVE WATERHOUSE MOTR FOR ROUND 9 After the week’s break, and a couple of well earned Carlton Draughts as we listen to SEN 1116 (G’day to our sponsors), we come back for the preamble to the epic Round 10 clashes on offer. However, Round 9 does feature the important clash between NOBS/St Pats (5th at 4-4) and Prahran Assumption (8th at 2-6). Prahran simply cannot lose this game. I expect them to work over the hot and cold NOBSPC, with Robbins kicking another 5.

Prahran Assumption by 20 points.

was again evident as it was the usual suspects who tried their best to keep them in the contest.

Playmakers Comrey Edgeworth and Keiffer SmithCameron were their best, but for the rest of the day it was simply all Whitefriars. Whitefriars have plenty of bright sparks amongst their side including the consistent Dan ‘picnic baskets’ Hogan and Brendan Stafford. Fiery forward Andrew Daou kicked 3 goals, however it was a commanding team performance by the young side.

UNICORNS SHOCK BLUES Melbourne High took its first big scalp of 2015, when it knocked-off Northern Blues by 20 points at home, in doing so confirmed its status as a finals smokey. The Unicorns squared the ledger at 4–4 and are now a legitimate finals aspirant.

They sit sixth, a game and percentage outside the top-four and this week’s game against Richmond Central is a must win if they’re to stay in touch.

Unfortunately for Northern, the loss sees them drop-out of the top-four and they face a stern test as they host an in-form Old Eltham. One would assume that goal-kicking practice would have been on the agenda over the break as the Blues kicked a dismal 10.21 (81) against Melbourne High. The Unicorns spread the load up forward with Svirskis, “Panda” Hawking and Toman all kicking three majors. They’ll go in warm favourites this week against Richmond Central, who were extremely disappointing against Eltham pre-bye.

Old Eltham was back to its attacking best at Kevin Bartlett Reserve with Tranter returning to the side with 10 goals. Add to that the hardworking Woods and crafty Mizzi bagging five apiece the Turtles were on song. The game was tight early before the Turtles exploded with a ten goal second quarter. The game was done and dusted by halftime as Eltham led by 65 points and cruised to victory. For the Snakes, Munro returned to form with five goals but lacked both support and supply. The win sees Old Eltham shoot clear of fourth placed Old Paradians and their performance will need to be replicated this week against Northern Blues. For the Snakes, they make the trek across Macrobertson’s Bridge to take on fellow finals aspirant Melbourne High, in what looms as a sterner test than expected.

An inaccurate Ivanhoe put the lowly Elsternwick to the sword, as it kicked 12 goals in the second-half on its way to thumping 97 point win. Elsternwick was on the back-foot from the opening bounce and barely gave a yelp. The Hoes forwards did as they pleased, registering 12 goal18

kickers, led by Lovell who slotted four. They also had seven multiple goal-kickers which further underlined their attacking prowess. This is no doubt a strength that the undefeated St Johns have duly noted and will want to restrict in this week’s top-of-the-table clash. The game marks St Johns’ sternest test yet and promises to be a classic. Elsternwick host Old Paradians, and with the game being played on the smaller Oval 2 at VAFA HQ, it will be a toss of the coin. The Wicks will try and bottle the game up while Dave Boundy may have his second day out in as many weeks.

Boundy made a mockery of South Melbourne’s depleted backline as he booted nine and was well supported by James Kandilakis (4) and Michael Bellizia with three. The Raiders did as they pleased against a Districts’ side that seems to be in freefall.

Senior Coach Gary March must be wondering what he got himself into, his side seems devoid of all form and confidence and may go through the year without a win. Paradians have failed to iron out their inconsistencies from last year, which will need to be rectified if they’re to hold their spot in the top-four. They still struggle to match it with the top sides and will need and percentage boosting win against Elsternwick to hold off the likes of Northern Blues, Richmond Central and Melbourne High in the run home. South Melbourne host fellow cellar-dweller Monash this week, would have hopefully set themselves over the bye for a chance to bank its first points.

Monash gave St Johns a fright in its Round 7 encounter as the Gryphons jumped the JOCs and held a three goal lead at the first change.

Unfortunately for Monash, that’s where the DIVISION 2 — TIPS IN BOLD Elsternwick v Old Paradians South Melbourne v Monash Gryphons MHSOB v Richmond Central St Johns v Ivanhoe Northern Blues v Old Eltham

good news stopped. The sluggish JOCs burst to life in the second term, they held the Gryphons scoreless and booted seven majors. The JOCs went into the half five goals up and full of running. It was much of the same in the second half as St Johns’ midfield started to dominate and forwards Rohan Scott (6) and Aaron Thornton (4) cashed in. The pair are developing into one of the better forward duos in Div 2 with a great mix of hardness, football nous and innate goal sense. The JOCs did what they needed to do and ran away winners by 11 goals. The Gryphons simply didn’t have the spread of talent to match it with their more fancied opponent but have a chance for redemption this week against South

Melbourne. St Johns have ticked all the boxes thus far, and met every challenge thrown at them with class and vigour. Ivanhoe though will prove a different beast. Both teams are both defensively and offensively sound, with the assumption that this game will be won and lost in the midfield.

DIVISION 3

SAINTS GO BACK TO BACK With blustering conditions and inaccurate kicking around the grounds, some questions have been answered. The cream has risen to the top with the Animals remaining undefeated, with one hand on the cup. Swinburne survived a scare from Power House. Glen Eira achieved the impossible and did it for Alex.

AQUINAS DEF. LA TROBE La Trobe University ventured out to Aquinas College to take on the Bloods in windy conditions.

After a modest first quarter, La Trobe struggled in the second going scoreless as Aquinas were able to add 6 goals. Come the second half, La Trobe quelled the onslaught putting on 3 goals as the Bloods found it hard to pull away with inaccurate kicking. In the fourth, La Trobe was at a standstill again as Aquinas finished them off winning by 75 pts. For the Bloods, Benjamin Nucifora piled on 6 goals and BOG was Philip Jurkovsky.

Grant Dowler was the only multiple scorer with 2 for La Trobe.

GLEN EIRA DEF. UHS-VU Glen Eira was the main story last week and the Saints did it again with a huge win over UHSVU at Packer Park. Whether it was confidence from last win a week prior or club legend Alex Tsirogiannis’ 250th game, what I can tell is that there’s “buy-in” to what the Saints are doing on the field. Despite not scoring in the opening term, a quick goal just after the 2-minute mark kicked the Saints into gear. By halfway through the 2nd, the Saints, managed to get a 1 pt lead momentarily before UHS quickly snapped 2 goals before the main break. The Saints however, had a sniff and weren’t going to let this go. By the first 5 minutes of the 3rd, the Saints had kicked 2 more goals UHS-VU were up by 3 pts at orange time. Despite UHS-VU getting the first goal for the 4th, the Saints were hungry and aggressive. By the end of the seesawing affair, the Saints through that man, Daniel Entwistle, who led with 5 goals and BOG performance, had won by one straight kick. John Clark was best for UHS-VU. 20

WEST BRUNSWICK DEF. BY EMMAUS ST LEO’S The Grand Final preview at Ransford Oval, didn’t live up to the hype and the Magpies are searching for answers. Despite a strong side and wind making things difficult, it was a tight first quarter with the Animals kicking 4 points to West’s one goal. The Animals slowly built up the pressure despite losing a couple early through injury. This didn’t seem to slow them down as they were able to adjust and go on with it to manage an 8 pointt lead at half time. The strong marking of Ryan Harding and pressure around the packs from the Baranello brothers opened up the second half with the Animals booting 10 goals to two, leading to an eight goal win.

Jack Taylor and Evan Lloyd battled hard against the odds for the Magpies. The Animals finished the game making a very large statement on the competition. I hope the Hawks were there watching.

SWINBURNE UNI DEF. POWER HOUSE Swinburne hosted Power House at St James Park and came our firing with a handy 6 goal lead. By the second, Power House were able to stem the tide and actually win the subsequent quarters.

Power House really did their homework by shutting out leading goal-kicker, Tom Kennedy and restricting the in-form Danny Manning. By the end, Power House had run out of time and lost by 23 points. For Power House, Jacob Whelan was best and Grant Murphy led all scorers with 3 goals. Scott Ashton was judged best afield for the Razorbacks ELEY PARK DEF. BY ALBERT PARK Albert Park headed out to Whitehorse Reserve to take on Eley Park. An Albert Park 5 goal to 1 first quarter, would have not been what was ordered for the Sharks who were celebrating DIVISION 3 — TIPS IN BOLD Emmaus St Leo's v Hawthorn La Trobe Uni v UHS-VU Albert Park v Aquinas Glen Eira v Swinburne Uni West Brunswick v Eley Park

past-players day. The Sharks responded in the second, outscoring the Falcons, 7 goals to 3 to be down by just 3 points over the main break.

The Falcons used their opportunities better, as the Sharks shot a woeful 1.12 in the second half. The Falcons weren’t perfect with 7.9, but still would be smiling running out 6 goal victors.

Patrick McMahon was the Sharks only multiple goal scorer. Ashley McNaughton was on fire with 5 goals for the Falcons and BOG was Adrian Snowden who also chipped in with 2 majors.

PREVIEW With a week off for the Queen’s birthday, all the teams should be fit and firing for Round 9. Emmaus St Leo’s (1st) host an extra rested Hawthorn (5th). Did the Hawks scout the

DIVISION 3

Albert Park (7th) host Aquinas (3rd) who are travelling nicely. Aquinas all the way. Can Glen Eira (9th) make it 3 in a row against Swinburne Uni (4th)???? Surely not. Swinburne (Unless there’s a milestone). Lastly, Eley Park (8th) travel to West Brunswick (2nd) for their 2nd encounter.

The Magpies will shake it off quick smart and celebrate Warrick “Wokka” Bakers, 100th game in style. Power House (10th) have the bye.

UPSETTING THE STATUS QUO The adage goes “a week’s a long time in footy” and a mere seven days after this scribe had all but locked in the ladder positions for the rest of the season and proclaimed there would be no movement between the two halves of the competition, we’ve had our first major upset of the season.

After getting touched up by the rampant Canterbury the week before, North Brunswick looked to bounce back, and a clash against the lowly placed Mount Lilydale on their home deck would present the perfect canvas for their retribution. Kicking seven goals in the first quarter, things got off to a dream start for the home team, the perfect rebound beckoned. However, the joy for the Bulls would be short lived, Mount Lilydale, in an unprecedented display of form, slotted six goals, seven behinds and went into the rooms with a narrow lead. The two sides exchanged blows throughout the second half after the break, before Mount Lilydale pulled away by six goals, recording their greatest victory in recent times.

Tom Bailey put on one of the best games for his club to date, and Tommy Mcquinn had a great day in front of goal, helping himself to four. For the losing side, who will need to plug the hole in the sinking ship before the damage is irreparable, Ben Gallagher and Daniel Nugent performed well, as always.

If there is a bloke in all of Australia in better form than Dale Collins, I’d like to hear it. If bags of 7, 7 and 15 in recent weeks weren’t enough, he’s helped himself to a lazy 17 to help Westbourne post another huge victory over Chadstone. Collins set the club record of 15 goals in a game the week earlier against Masala and he broke his own record in brilliant fashion. In a testament to Chadstone’s gradual improvement, they managed to keep Westbourne at arm’s length early on, and kept Westbourne to a modest 14 goals in the first half.

After the break though, it was unfortunately the same tune we’ve heard many a time this season as Westbourne got firing. The visitors slotted 20 22

www.vafa.com.au

second half goals. Joining Dale Collins in the best for Westbourne was Michael Culliver and Tim Rogers while for Chadstone it was Daniel Allsopp and David Bennett who fought hard on a rough day.

The Point Cook travelling party will be very familiar with the Monash freeway this year as they once again headed out east to enjoy the spoils of Noble Park for their contest against Masala. In similar fashion to the Chadstone vs Westbourne game, Masala held Point Cook to a modest score up to half-time, before the Bulldogs flexed their biceps and quashed Masala with relative ease.

However to Masala’s credit, a 92-point win is far less than we all expected. For Masala it was Zach Kelly, Jaryd Coghill and Wayne McMahon while Matthew Herbertson with five goals and Cody Day impressed for the travelling Point Cook.

South Mornington played host to Parkside and again, the result for the much maligned South Mornington was far better than anyone expected.

The Tigers only going down by a meagre 20 points. Despite coughing up the first four goals of the game, the Tigers rallied in the second quarter to go into the sheds with a small lead. It was a low scoring affair in the third quarter and the stage was set for an almighty tug-of-war in the last term. Unfortunately for the Tigers, their home advantage wouldn’t be enough to help get them over the line. South Mornington ran out of puff and Parkside ran out victors. Jacob Smith and Nicholas Leskovec were sensational for the Tigers and Kade Woodruff and Michael Heib did their bit in front of goal. For Parkside another win on their way to building something back in the VAFA.

Cobras have been left licking their wounds after another disappointing loss, this time to Box Hill North by 19 points. The loss now sees Manningham in 8th spot on the ladder and out of touch with the top six of the competition. Despite getting off to a brilliant start, the Cobras began to falter in the second stanza, relinquishing the lead at the main break. After a spray that could be heard in Camberwell from coach McDonald, the Cobras rallied again, heading to the final break with a marginal lead. But for the underperforming Cobras, their efforts in the third would go unrewarded, Box Hill storming home to win by over three goals. Laynton Allan performed admirably as always for the Cobras and Anthony Russ was formidable up forward, slotting five majors. For Box Hill it was Colin Osborn and Ross Wilding who ensured they got the points.

THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2015

After a well-earned break for all sides, I’m picking South Mornington to carry on their recent improvement with a solid win over Masala. Canterbury will exert their dominance as competition leaders over Manningham as will Point Cook over Mt Lilydale. Box Hill North should salute against Parkside and Westbourne will continue to inflict misery on North Brunswick.

THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2015

CLUB WAREHOUSE RISING STAR 2015 RISING STAR – NICHOLAS EBINGER Nicholas has been nominated after a stellar opening 8 rounds. Despite his tender age of 18, Nicholas has burst onto the scene kicking 32 goals in just 8 games for Williamston CYMS. Of that 32, 7 were kicked last week in a strong victory over PEGS. Nicholas endured a tough pre-season, working on his defensive game, adding strings to his bow and kilograms to his frame developing himself for senior football. Nicholas’ standout strength is his ability to mark the football playing out of Full Forward or Half Forward Flank. Opponents wince every time Nicholas clunks a strong mark as his efficiency is also immaculate in front of goal, converting on nearly every occasion. Remarkably, Nicholas is the youngest member of the Williamstown CYMS Senior side and despite being only 6ft tall, often finds himself playing a key position role and leads the club for their goal kicking tally. Nicholas’ sheer natural talent is exceptionally promising for Williamstown CYMS as he is in his third year for the club and looks to continually improve as he develops into one of Premier C’s power forwards.

THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2015

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

RETROSPECTIVE

Geoff Reilley

@GeoffreyReilley

5 YEARS AGO: 2010 In Division 2, St Mary’s Salesian won a thriller over Eltham and in doing so placed themselves in a stronger position and further from the relegation zone. It was so close all day and the final score in the Saints’ favour was 8.17 to 8.16. Best: Dwyer, Gatehouse, Williams, West, Oldfield, Rogers (StM) and Crooks, Richardson, Dillon, Hargrave, Ogilvie, Galvin (Eltham).

In Division 3 Elsternwick won an important game over Kew in a contest that went down to wire 12.13 to 11.10. Kew had led at each change and were disappointed at the end of the day, especially as they were definitely in the relegation zone. Best: Bedingfield (3), Mahony, Schroder, Smith, Convery, Patey (Elst) and Bagnall (4), Ross, Donaldson, Hale, McGrane, Cochrane (Kew).

10 YEARS AGO: 2005 In D2 Section, Old Geelong lost their first game for the season when they did not handle the trip to Williamstown as they would have liked, the CYMS winning comfortably 18.7 to 11.12 after overcoming a tardy start in the first term. Best: Grieve, Holland, M Cocks, Elias, Wheeler, Pach (WCYMS) and Vasey Vickers-Willis, Lansdell, Paul, Malpas (OG).

In D3 West Brunswick consolidated their place in the top four with a powerful display against Power House 20.14 to 9.7. The Westies were on song from the opening bounce. Best: Piestch, Sudholz, S Benjamin, Millard, Monagle (5), West (West Brunswick) and B White (3), S west, P Sosic, N Bishop, R Marshall (Power House).

In D4, after Hawthorn Amateurs defeated Bullen Cobras 19.14 to 13.15, there was only one game separating 2nd and 8th place. Best: L Collins, McKenna, Lauletta (5), Jackamos (3), D Pritchard, Hall (Hawthorn Amateurs) and Cookson, Trinchi, Mehrez, Conn, Mullinger, Dacey (Bulleen Cobras).

20 YEARS AGO: 1995 In E East Section, Yarra Valley Old Boys caused St Leos Wattle Park’s first defeat and both of these teams now shared the top position with 8 wins from 9 played. It was mainly Yarra Valley’s straight shooting that won them the game, 11.6 to 5.12. Best: Ford, McLeod, Taylor, Fung, Smillie Downs (YV) and Lawlor, Meehan, McKenzie, Robinson, Van Den Akker (StLWP).

In E Central, Uni High School Old Boys (4th) were 42

defeated by University Reds (3rd) in a very low scoring match, 4.3 to 4.10. UHSOB scored 4.3 in the first quarter and only scored another 5 behinds for the rest of the game. UHSOB retained their 4th place but their percentage was relatively poor and the challenges were coming thick and fast. Best: Wallace, McLean, Rothwell, Major, Williams, Griffiths (UHSOB) and Jackson, Lukies, James, Rowland, Parnell, Goldstraw (Uni Reds).

In E South Section, St Pats Mentone (4th) recorded a very important win over second placed Salesians, 8.9 to 4.11, to hold their fourth position. Salesians led at half time but St Pats mowed them down in the poor conditions with a terrific third term (5.1). Best: Whilley, Barry, M Sullivan, T Sullivan, Gurtler, Vilic (St Pats) and Bobetic, Bourke, Amiet, Healey, Carlin, Sutherland (Salesians).

A Section Senior coaches were: Leigh Carlson (Collegians), Mike McArthur-Allen (De La Salle), Tony Cahill (North Old Boys), Mark Tymms (Old Melburnians), Wayne Harmes (Old Scotch), Alan Johnson (Old Trinity), Barry Richardson (Old Xaverians), Geoff Reilley (Ormond), Shane Zantuck (St Bernards), Grant Williams (Uni Blues).

Howard Turvey played his 300th game for Bulleen United and had been a convert to ‘Aussie Rules’ from soccer having been born in London and only taking up our game as an adult. Howard was not a natural in terms of protecting himself in the rough and tumble of the Australian code: he had been knocked out a number of times, at training mostly. He had also been ‘cleaned up’, on foot, by a marauding Melbourne tram but claimed the distinction of breaking the tram’s headlight in the collision! Taking everything into consideration, it had been a terrific effort for Howard to total the magical 300.

30 YEARS AGO: 1985 A Section senior coaches were Mike Zemski (Bulleen Templestowe), Bruce Ferguson (Collegians), John Pollard (De La Salle), Alan Salter (Ivanhoe), Jim Durnan (North Old Boys), Trevor Read (Old Scotch), Jack Clarke (Old Xaverians), Mike McArthur-Allen (Ormond), Paul Daffey (St Bernards) and Robert Lamb (Uni Blues), In B Section, Old Melburnians held on to second place when they defeated Uni Blacks 18.15 to 16.10.

Best: Cordner, Morphet, G Pattinson, J Thompson, Dawson, Baglin (OM’s) and Alexander, Vaughan, O’Halloran, Doyle (5), B Pattinson, Harty (Uni Blacks).

In E Section Uni Reds put up a great effort given they THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2015

were on the bottom of the ladder and playing top team Preston. Although the Reds trailed all day they finished only 43 points shy, 17.7 to 22.20. Preston’s best were Johnstone, Robertson (7), Haysom, Bergin, Milner, Calcutt, Thompson. For the Reds, McGuinness (3), Forbes, De Thomas (6), Gay, Hutchins, Koop.

40 YEARS AGO: 1975 St Bernards justified their top position in A Section when they easily defeated North Old Boys kicking 11.5 to 2.2 in the last quarter to win 18.13 to 7.13.

Best: M Mahoney, Wade, Drennan (StB) and S Maguire, Wilson, Curley (NOB).

Footscray Institute of Technology (F Section), recorded their first win. It was a ‘shock’ win over Bulleen United. Best: Godwin, Edwards, Hoyne (FIT) and R Divirgillio, Porter and Mayne (Bulleen United).

The only teams to yet win a game in senior football were Geelong (A Section) and St Kevins Old Boys (D Section).

150 games to John McNish (Hampton Rovers) and Les Goag (UHSOB) and both Godfrey Stevens and Alan Haug (Old Ivanhoe).

45 YEARS AGO: 1970 Coburg strengthened their top position in A Section with a powerful display against Monash University, 24.19 to 11.14. The Uni boys displayed plenty of spirit but were no match for the powerful Coburg team.

It was a terrific last quarter of footy with 16 goals scored (!0 by Coburg and 6 by Uni). Best: McFarlane (11), King (3), Seeth (3), Sullivan, L Beattie, N Beattie (Cob) and Watsford, Thomas, Peers (3), Lane, Cole, Halliday (Mon).

North Old Boys took a step closer to the top four in B Section and put 4 more points between their nearest challenger when they defeated Kew comprehensively 22.17 to 9.9. It was probably all over at quarter time with NOBS scoring 6.8 to 1.1.

Best: Elliott, Fennelly (5), Murray (4), M Drew, S Maguire, Cheel (NOBS) and Cavanagh, Hiscock (5), Wilde, Smith, Mullin, Little (Kew).

55 YEARS AGO: 1960 B Section leaders, De La Salle, lost their second successive game when they went down to Hampton Rovers who scored after the final siren to snatch victory. The Rovers had been down by 6 goals at half time and their recovery was a very fine effort against tough opposition. Best: C Adamson, F Adamson, THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2015

McDonald (Hampton Rovers) and Watts, Compton, Hannaberry (De La Salle).

100 games to Bernie Teague, De La Salle’s back pocket player. St Kilda CBC Old Boys farewelled three stalwarts, John Langley, Dennis O’Brien and Brian Sharkey, all leaving on a trip for Europe.

E Section captains were W Bennett (Collegians Gold), J McGregor (Elsternwick), L Dowling (Old Trinity), B Bentick (Old Carey), J Wiltshire (Old Camberwell).

100 games to Peter Whitfield, the fourth Whitfield to reach that milestone for Alphington. 100 also to Peter Laxton (Elsternwick) and Neil Lewthwaite (Ivanhoe).

65 YEARS AGO: 1950 Going for their 12th successive victory in A Section, Ormond stumbled at the hands of Old Scotch who out-marked, outpaced, and therefore outplayed the ladder leaders 9.13 to 8.12. Best: Geer, Bate, Morone (OS) and K Robinson, Rundle, Hardy (Orm).

One of those exceptional statistical events occurred when after 9 rounds, games won in B Section read 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 0. Would University mathematicians work out the odds on such a result?

In B Section, Collegians inflicted the first defeat on Commonwealth Bank for the season, 10.18 to 8.13.

Best Brian Judd, Warren Judd, Greg Buckeridge, David Kerr (Coll) and Ted Thomas, Alan Shiel, Ian Bailey and Alan Kirby (CB).

The team to represent Victoria against the Canberra League was B: Bunting (Old Xavs), Thomas (Commonwealth Bank), Leason (State Savings Bank); HB: Taylor (Old Scotch), Mick Dexter (Uni Blacks), W Judd (Collegians); C: Rogers (Kew), Adams (Alphington), Jolley (Uni Blues); HF: Holman (Ormond), Lamb (Geelong), Grainger (Old Melburnians); F: McLaughlin (Old Paradians), Smith (North Alphington), Dillon (Power House); Foll: Jackson (Brunswick), Robertson (Parkside); Ferguson (Coburg); Reserves: Hodgson (Ivanhoe), Aldridge (Murrumbeena), Gribble (MHSOB).

Undefeated leaders in each section were Ormond (A), Commonwealth Bank (B), Kew (C), East Malvern (D) and Ormond (Juniors).

MEGT UNDER 19

MEGT U19 Premier with John Donohoe @jdonohoe12

SEASON STARTING TO TAKE SHAPE Old Scotch and Uni Blues played out a thriller at Camberwell with Uni Blues putting in a four quarter effort to claim a 6-point win. The result sees the Blues move to 5th on the ladder. In a low scoring affair it was Blues who took the ascendancy, leading by 5 points at the first break and 9 points at the half. Scotch just couldn’t find a reply, and but for some wayward kicking, could easily have found themselves in front. Poor kicking has been a consistent feature of this season, and this contest was no exception. Of Scotch’s eleven scoring shots in the first half they could only muster one goal. The Cardinals did fire up in the last term kicking 5.1 to 2.5 but it still wasn’t enough for the home team. Montgomery kicked 3 and was best on ground for Uni and Townsend was Scotch’s best. Scotch, so good three weeks ago against St. Kevins now sit 8th on the ladder and continue to fall by narrow margins. If the Cardinals are any chance at climbing the ladder this season they will need to put four quarters of football together.

For the first time in a very long time Old Melburnian’s have won two games in a row and remarkably are off the bottom of the table with a 22-point victory over University Blacks at Crawford Oval. They have turned their season around after losing their first six contests by almost 100-point margins. Despite these results OM’s have confidence to burn. Although they will not make finals this season, results like this will be a platform to build upon for their next campaign. Alex McFarlane continues to be their stand out player, in their best for the fifth time this year. Clarke and Dow were good for Blacks on a tough day. OM’s take on St Kevins this week in what could be another tough day at the office, but I have said that before and been wrong.

Could they beat them? Doubtful, but you never know.

It was touted to be the game of the round and it lived up to the hype. This was a cracker between Skobs and Beaumaris. The Sharks have been the in form side in the competition over the last month and many including myself believed they were capable of knocking off St Kevins, after taking 44

care of Bernards a few weeks earlier. It wasn’t to be on Saturday, but they were gallant in defeat.

Beauy led at quarter time before being reeled in by a sharp Skobs outfit to trail by 9 points at the half and 19 points at the end of the third. They eventually succumbed to the tune of 28 points.

Lewis and Kerr kicked 3 each for Skobs, with Tate the best player on the ground. Zagni continued his good form for Beauy booting 3 with Beattie– Powell kicking 2 and featuring in the best.

De La Salle are without doubt the big surprise packet of 2015, they have been more than competitive in each of their games and were ever so close to knocking off last years premiers at Waverley Park. In a low scoring, scrappy affair De La stuck it to Bernards and competed right to the end with the Snowdogs winning by 2 points.

De La are playing some tremendous football and they are moving the ball beautifully. Should they make to the finals, beware. They are very capable of causing big upsets. Credit to Bernards also for finding a way to win in the contest, their regulars stood up with Sibbald kicking 2 and Delzoppo getting plenty of leather. Vawser continued his good form over the last few weeks and added a goal to his tally while Krelle was also outstanding for the home team.

Old Xavs were half asleep to start their game against Old Trinity team who took it right up to them on their home deck. Trinity trailed by 25 at half time before Xavs clicked into gear in the 3rd booting 11 goals to none with Sam Cleeve booting 5 in the quarter on his way to 9 for the game. Harry Kelly continues to impress with 5 goals of his own and Ollie Silk was outstanding all day and was in everything. For the home side Meerman and Hall were quite good and toiled hard all day on what was a rough day for Old Trinity. Another big win for Old Xavs in a game they were expected to win, their next task comes against the Giant killing De La which will not doubt be a ripper.

THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2015

MEGT U19 SECTION 2 & 3 with Tom Neuendorf

SECTION TWO If section two didn’t know that Old Brighton was coming, they do after their Rd 8 performance against Whitefriars. The match was expected to be a tight contest with the Friars sitting comfortably in second spot on the ladder with a healthy percentage, and Old Brighton sitting in third behind them. The Tonners didn’t get the memo. The match was effectively over at quarter time, the ball barely left Old Brighton’s attacking half. It was a stunning term of football.

The margin at the first change was 61 points and the Tonners never looked back stampeding their way to a 100-point win. Matthew Fogarty was the leading goalkicker on the ground with four and George Kimpton-Moss was influential in the memorable win.

St Bedes/Mentone also got off to a flyer on Saturday morning, taking a 40-point lead into quarter time. To their credit, Caulfield Grammarians clawed their way back into the contest. By half time they were within striking distance, 16 points down. Wasted opportunities

by Caulfield in the last quarter saw the Tigers hold on by 11 points. Ben Morrell was best on ground in the victory. Next up for the Tigers is a white hot Old Brighton unit and they will have to bring their A game if they are to knock off the Tonners.

SECTION THREE Section three is shaping up to be a very tight race to the finals. Ormond survived a major scare against an improving Old Camberwell team, coming back from a four goal deficit at three quarter time to run over the top of the ‘Wellers by 5-points. The result was devastating for Old Camberwell as they controlled the contest for the first three quarters. Matthew Perry was again instrumental for Ormond, taking his season tally to 23 with another three goals. Jonty SharmanSmith was best on ground and Ormond will be breathing a huge sigh of relief, maintaining their second spot on the table.

It was wet and windy at Carey Sport Complex on Saturday as Williamstown upset the home team.

On the back of a strong start to the season, Old Carey never got their slick, champagne brand of football going. The match was an arm wrestle, which played into Williamstown’s hands. The CY’s eventually outlasted the Panthers by a comfortable 25 points. The big guns fired for Willy as Jake Slee booted three and Matthew Barned two. James Kilpatrick was a vital cog in the win.

Old Geelong held onto first position on the ladder with a comfortable 57-point win over Hampton Rovers, and St Bernards came out 14 point winners in a dog fight with Old Xaverians at Walter Street Reserve.

Parkdale remain unbeaten after disposing off Fitzroy by 60-points, Marcellin defeated cellar dwellers Collegians by four goals, and Old Ivanhoe upset Mazenod by 54-points.

UMPIRES CORNER

@VAFAUA

RUNNING ON THE ‘G Last round we mentioned that Shannon Kirkby was selected to umpire the AFL Womens Match at the MCG. This week Shannon shares her story of running on the ‘G. On Sunday May 24th I was selected to umpire the 2015 Women’s Exhibition Match between Melbourne and Western Bulldogs at the MCG. This game is played by the best 50 female footballers in Australia, where both clubs select their players through a national draft. The other 3 field umpires and myself are all part of Neville Nash’s Female Umpiring Academy, coached by AFL Umpire Mat Nicholls, with our boundary and goal umpires selected by their respective local associations to have the opportunity to officiate in the game.

We all met at the MCG at 10am before heading into the umpires rooms to prepare ourselves for the game. Not long after putting out bags down, we headed out to the ground. Walking out to the middle of an empty MCG to have a chat with Mat and a walk around.

After having our group photo taken, we went and saw both teams. You could sense the excitement of both groups. With the girls only coming together late in the week, they were finally at game day, their chance to showcase their skills.

Mat discussed our game plan for the day, protecting the ball player, pay all major and obvious free kicks, 100% effort for our 60 minutes on the field and most of all, enjoy the day.

The four quarters of football gave an exciting showing of what women’s football in Australia holds. A fantastic game of football was played out, with the result being 8 points in Melbourne’s favour. I have no doubt that we’ll see a national women’s competition introduced within the next 5 years.

When that final siren sounded I was absolutely exhausted. I put every last piece of effort into finishing that game the way I started it and I could tell the other girls were feeling exactly the same, I was very proud of our performance as a whole. We all lined up for the presentation where the BOG was announced and everyone was thanked for an excellent game.

When we were all back in the rooms, Mat, Neville and Liz congratulated the team on our performance on the day. Mat then spoke with the field umpires separately, he just wanted to express how proud he was of us and the job we did. We did exactly what he wanted from us, we let the girls play footy.

As there were 3 match balls, each team, as well as the umpires were given one. Not knowing what to do with ours or who to give it to, Jan Cooper suggested that I, as the birthday girl, should get it as a reminder of my best birthday ever, all the girls and coaches signed the football which will always be a reminder of such a great experience.

SOCIAL NOTES Don’t forget Trivia Night, Saturday 27th June in the club rooms at Elsternwick Park, 7pm for 7:30 start.

Walking up the race to enter the ground, even though the stands were quite empty, you get the feeling of what it would be like to walk out on the day of a big clash, such as Anzac Day, or during the finals. The noise the small crowd made was such a thrill to walk out to.

I was fortunate enough to start the game, and thankfully, got the bounce up straight.

The skill level of the girls seems to increase every year, it was a much more defensive game with a lot more stoppages in comparison to last.

INACCURATE KICKING COSTS TEAMS University Blues have come from behind in the last quarter to beat Williamstown by 5 points.

With 15 minor scores, Williamstown will be rueing their missed opportunities in front of goal.

Samuel Richards and Matthew Nevett played well for the Blues with 2 goals each, while Jordan Davies tried hard for Williamstown.

Ivanhoe also won a tight contest over St Bernards by 14 points. Inaccurate kicking from St Bernards cost them any chance of getting back into the match in the last quarter. Jack Rodgers was best on for Ivanhoe with plenty of touches and a goal, while Max Post and Samuel Aanensen kicked 2 goals each in the win.

UHS-VU/Flemington defeated Parkside convincingly to go to the top of the ladder after Mazenod’s promotion. Matthew Mallia booted 4 majors whole Thomas Cheyne was instrumental in getting the ball forward.

Parkside only had two goal kickers. Matthew Soligo with 3 and Isaac Romano with 2.

La Trobe recorded the biggest win of the round,

thumping Old Paradians by 13 goals. La Trobe opened up the game with a 5 goals second quarter, led by Liam Guy and Patrick Carroll who kicked 5 and 4 goals respectively.

U19 SECTION 4

NODDERS OFF TO FLYER IN 4 Mazenod won its first game convincingly in Section 4 after being promoted from the Colts.

The Nodders led from start to finish and were never challenged by De La. Mazenod’s Luke Ward kicked 4 goals in the 80 point win.

Northern Blues registered a huge win over bottom placed MHSOB. Damien Delle-Vergini ran rampant for the Blues, booting 10 majors in a best on ground performance. DeMaria and Williamson also had solid games to help set up the Blues 20 goal win.

Monash Blues have jumped to third on the ladder with a hard fought win over Oakleigh. Monash kept Oakleigh goalless in the last quarter to come from behind and snatch victory. Monash’s Daniel Quattro’s 3 goals proved priceless in a low scoring contest.

54

Old Haileyburians defeated Parkdale by 43 points to put some space between them at the bottom of the table. Jack Munro kicked 5 goals and Ben Oaks 3 to lead Haileyburians to the win.

Peninsula maintained its undefeated status with a 92 point win over Therry Penola and St Kevins knocked off Beaumaris at TH King Oval.

IVANHOE GET THEIR TONIC XMEN TAKE BREATH T 8-0 REVIEW

Round 8 saw several close matches as well as some rare victories to lower placed teams.

SECTION 1 La Trobe University led throughout the first three quarters against Ivanhoe, who powered home against the wind to snatch the lead in the last minutes of the match. The three point win will be a real tonic for the young Ivanhoe players, and the Hoes could well help shape the four over the remaining seven rounds. La Trobe will rue their missed opportunity to challenge for second place as they face the prospect of missing players through exams and vocation in the weeks ahead.

Alex Koutsoukis kicked three important goals for Ivanhoe in the win.

North Old Boy’s/ St Patrick’s recorded their first win for 2015 as they outplayed Old Geelong to record a 32-point victory. The defeat leaves Old Geelong languishing on the bottom of the ladder after 8 rounds. Ben O’Halloran booted four majors for the victors and Darcy Brown put in a best on ground performance.

In very windy conditions third placed Richmond Central challenged unbeaten leaders Old Xaverians.

The Xav’s forward line was uncharacteristically wasteful in the first half, and despite having the best of the play were only two points up at the main break. The second half followed a similar pattern to the first, and at the final siren the Xaverians had claimed victory by twelve points. Best for the Xaverians on the day were Matthew Walsh, Simon O’Brien and John Raffaele. The Cardinals best were Sam Hartmann who dominated the hitouts, Andrew Read and Mark McCabe.

Another surprise result was the ten point victory at Como Park by Prahran/Assumption over second placed Hawthorn, who again succumbed to a fast paced brand of football on a big ground. The first half was tightly contested before the Two Blue’s accurate finishing enabled them to take home the four points on the day. Prahran/Assumption were 58

again well served by their veteran multi Mason Medal winners, Craig Berger and Jason Storer. For Hawthorn, the consistent Nick Criticos kicked two goals, and Anthony Marguccio was among the best.

SECTION 2 Undefeated leaders St Francis Xavier outplayed 4th placed Melbourne High School Old Boys to record a 95-point win. The Unicorns failed to score at one end and could only manage to score two goals in the entirety of the match. Brendan O’Hara kicked four goals in the onslaught and Sam Burns played a crucial role in the win.

The match of the round was played at Ormond where the home side went down to Westbourne Grammarians a solitary point. Ormond started well and held a 2-point advantage at the long interval.

Westbourne’s greater accuracy in front of goal handed them a three quarter time lead of four points and the last quarter proved to be a nail biter right up until the final siren.

Second placed, Albert Park proved too strong for University High School/VU, whose inability to score in the last quarter led to a 40-point defeat. The stage is now set for Albert Park to challenge St Francis Xavier today.

A depleted West Brunswick proved no match for a younger and quicker Kew team, who led throughout to record victory by 45 points. West Brunswick inaccuracy did them no favours in the defeat. Kew had a star up forward in Patrick Godfrey who kicked five goals. Others to perform well for Kew were Michael Vergamilis and James McCubbin.

For the losers Matthew Barron, Jimmy Forbes and Aiden Coultin were gallant in defeat.

PREVIEW SECTION 1 Hawthorn must regain momentum today against North Old Boy’s/St Patrick’s after their round 8 loss. At home, Hawthorn should win well against THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2015

their lower placed opponents. The NOB’s will undoubtedly provide spirited opposition.

The Ivanhoe versus Richmond Central match should prove to be an interesting contest. The young Ivanhoe side plays with spirit and certainly will make the fourth placed Cardinals earn a victory on the day. After watching each of these sides in Round 8, I select Richmond Central on the back of strong the strong recent form of Sam Hartmann and Peter Iser.

La Trobe University, despite exams and vocation, should return to the winning list today against eighth placed Old Geelong, whose players have not revealed the same standard of talent as have their opponents over eight rounds.

Long standing rivals, Old Xaverians and Prahran/ Assumption meet at Stradbroke Park. Although recent form has not been at their accustomed standard, I expect Old Xaverians will be too skilled and fast for their opponents.

SECTION 2 In what is shaping as a potential grand final preview, undefeated leaders St Francis Xavier travel to Albert Park to take on second placed Albert Park. Albert Park’s only blemish this season was their Anzac Day loss to St Francis, a tightly contested match which was decided by 12-points.

Although conditions at Albert Park will favour the home side, I select St Francis whose forward line displays the greater flexibility.

Kew, who are the most improved side in 2015 should continue on their winning way at the expense of Westbourne Grammarians.

In the battle of traditional rivals at Forest Hill I favour Melbourne High School Old Boys to return to the winners list at the expense of University High School/ VU, who despite showing promise, have experienced great difficulty converting SECTION 1 Old Geelong v La Trobe Uni Ivanhoe v Richmond Central Old Xaverians v Prahran Assumption Hawthorn v NOB/St Pat’s SECTION 2 West Brunswick v Ormond MHSOB v UHS-VU Kew v Westbourne Gr. Albert Park v St Francis Xavier

THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2015

opportunities into scores.

West Brunswick should stay in touch with the top four sides by defeating Ormond at the Ransford Oval, where no Ormond side has played for over fifty seasons (if at all!).

West Brunswick has the better form to warrant my selection, so I believe they will win.
