1THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2008VV

Whilst some may see thefocus switch from thehome and away rounds torep footy this weekend,

the true die hards of club footy will be on show with D1– D4, Club XVIII and 4 Under 19 sections continuing.

As every VAFA supporter is aware it is the relegationand promotion system that sets the VAFA apart frommost other competitions. However in D4 relegationdoesn’t cause an issue and it is for this reason that thecompetition does at times lack that competitiveness.

Over the last couple of weeks we have seen some majorupsets throughout all sections because of the relegationsystem. To name just a few Blacks rolled Old Xavs,MHSOB beat Hampton Rovers, Yarra Valley beatPrahran and the D1 relegation match betweenPeninsula and Aquinas must have been a beauty with 2points separating them at the end of the game.Unfortunately in our lowest division, D4, thismotivation can be lacking causing the biggestdiscrepancies in scores.

Over the last couple of seasons we have had a numberof clubs join the competition and all do so through thislevel. This season we introduced St Francis Xavier fromBeaconsfield, the year before Sth Mornington andbefore that Mt Lilydale. It has become clear that anynew clubs to the Association are probably going tocome from the growth suburbs of Melbourne which aremore than thirty kilometers from the CBD.

This will put increasing strain on the clubs in D4 asthey have to travel long distances to play each week.This has been made the more difficult by the increasedprices in fuel recently.

The other fact is that with the introduction of newteams, we have extended the D4 competition to 12

sides. By nature the more teams the bigger discrepancybetween top and bottom. Therefore without therelegation should D4 have the most number of teams?

There are a number of teams in D4 who seem contentto play for recreational purposes whilst others are keento progress. Certainly the VAFA Football sub-committee will discuss the make up of the D3/D4sections at the conclusion of the season.

In spite of what is stated above, a great win by St FrancisXavier last week against Kew has livened up the topsection of the ladder. In this section we are playing afinal five so to finish in the top 3 is vital. The five seemsset but the jostling of positions is what will make itinteresting. Hopefully we can see an upset in the lastfive matches however without the threat of relegation Ithink it is highly unlikely.

Club XVIII has only two weeks remaining before finalsand for the first time we have 4 divisions. It is ouropinion that it is best for the competition to have threesections of 8 rather than two of 12. This way it givesmore clubs the opportunity of playing finals andtherefore less meaningless games.

ROUND FOURTEENPREVIEWAquinas OC haveanother tough battle ontheir hands, this time athome to OldMentonians. These teams last met in Round One, thePanthers triumphant by 39 points on that occasion.After an encouraging first few weeks, very little has goneright for Aquinas in the last couple of months. ThePanthers, like myself, had a saggy middle part of theseason so far, but (unlike me) are now back in tip-topshape. Panthers to continue their run.

Old Geelong make the trip to Domeney Reserve to facean in-form Yarra Valley OB. The Oggers had a fantasticwin over the league leaders, while the Bushrangerscontinued their scramble to safety with a key victoryover a fellow struggler. It was only in Round Eight thatOld Geelong won by a massive 117 points. Can theBushrangers turn this around and make it three wins ina row? If they do, I'll eat my hat. So look out for a guywearing a chocolate hat on Saturday, just in case.However, I'll take the Oggers in this one.

South Melbourne Districts host Prahran at LindsayHassett Oval. Prahran won a thriller by five points whenthese teams met in Round Two, but it has been acontrast in fortunes ever since. The Two Blues havelacked a clear focal point up front since the beginning ofPPaauull GGrreeeennhhaamm''ss absence, so South's multi-facetedforward structure should have them covered, whichshould prove the decisive factor today. Bloods for mine.

Bulleen Templestowe will look to return to winning waysas they take on Peninsula OB at Ted Ajani Reserve. Backin Round One, it was the Bullants who emergedtriumphant by 20 points, and both sides have performedpretty much to expectations since then. The Bullantssimply have more class players in all parts of the ground- the most potent forward double act in the section, andthe talent in midfield and down back to get the ball tothem. Bullants to win.

Brunswick Street Oval is the scene for today's clashbetween Fitzroy Reds and NOB/SPC. Despite bothteams losing their lustre in the last two or three weeks,including losses for both sides last week, this game stillmerits match of the round status. The Cobbers won by22 points back in Round One, and both teams have, for

ROUND THIRTEEN REVIEWAt Gillon Oval, North Old Boys/St. Patrick's Collegianswere blown away by Old Geelong in the second half, tothe tune of 12 goals to one, eventually losing by 78points.

Fitzroy Reds lost their Bedford-Stephen Trophy andwere tipped out of the four in the process as SouthMelbourne Districts took the bikkies by 42 points atLindsay Hassett Oval.

In a good game despite the blustery conditions at thePlaying Fields, Old Mentonians held on in a thrillingfinish to shade it over Bulleen Templestowe by twopoints. The Panthers were up by 14 points with twominutes left on the clock, before the Bullants scored twogoals in quick succession. The last 30 seconds seemedto last an eternity, but the Panthers defence managed towithstand one last Bullant attack. RRoowwaann BBaallll,, DDaavviiddTTeeaassddaallee and DDaavviidd CCoocchhrraannee were instrumental in thePanthers' victory.

Peninsula OB were in control for most of the day in theirmatch against Aquinas OC in Mount Eliza, but could'veeasily lost it, eventually getting over the line by fivepoints. Full back AAnntthhoonnyy WWiilllliiaammss'' suspension for thevisitors proved critical for the visitors, but got goodservice from LLaacchhllaann BBaarrnneess in his senior debut,wingman TTrreenntt HHaarrkkiinn and PPaauull MMaaaasskkaanntt, whose runof fine form continues. For the Pirates, TToomm RReeeess didthe business when it counted in the last quarter, whilekey forward/ruckman NNiicckk CCllaarriinnggbboolldd was animposing presence, and TToobbyy GGaarrbbeerrss was a strongtarget up forward.

Yarra Valley OB made it two wins on the bounce with aconvincing win over Prahran by 43 points at Toorak Parkto make things that bit more interesting in the relegationdogfight.

the most part, been going along nicely since. Both sidesneed a win today, albeit for different reasons, in whatlooms as a season-shaping contest. Tough call this, butI'll go the Reds in a tight one.

Werribee may still be on top of the ladder, but I have a feelingthat they are struggling a bit at the moment. Emmaus St Leoscontinue to roll along nicely and are joint premiershipfavourites with the Tigers at $2.20 in the current market. It’s athree horse race for fourth spot on the ladder (could really goto anyone), while the relegation battle is as close as ever. Ithink St Marys/Salesian still have a couple of wins left in them,so expect the unexpected in the next five weeks.

EEmmmmaauuss SStt LLeeooss $$11..5500 vv BBaannyyuullee $$22..4400Much to Drifter’s dismay, Emmaus St Leos enter this clash asclear favourites, despite the fact that the Animals lost toBanyule away from home earlier in the season. A win for thehome side will all but rule out the chances Banyule has offinishing with the double chance so stakes are high in this one.Emmaus St Leos had to work had for their win against StMarys/Salesian last round, but NNaatthhaann BBaarraanneelllloo and CChhrriissBBeelluusszzaarr (five goals) stepped up (yet again) when required inthe final term. Banyule got the job done over Old Paradians,with DDaavviidd GGaayyffeerr’’ss five-goal haul the highlight. Both teamspossess plenty of quality players and I expect a high-scoringshootout here. BBeelluusszzaarr at one end and GGaayyffeerr at the othermakes for good viewing, but the game is sure to be won in themiddle of the ground. The BBaarraanneelllloo’’ss are important for theAnimals, while the likes of NNiicckk TTaayylloorr, NNaatthhaann BBrraaddddyy andLLeeiigghhttoonn OO’’DDoonnnneellll will need good matches if the Bears are toprevail. There can only be one winner here and the Animals willdisplay their premiership credentials with a comprehensivevictory. Emmaus St Leos by 35 points.

OOlldd PPaarraaddiiaannss $$11..6655 vv SStt MMaarryyss//SSaalleessiiaann $$22..1100This is a must win for St Marys/Salesian if they are to stay inD2 in 2009 and, although their form of late has been good, theRaiders at home are always a formidable outfit. Old Paradiansare coming off a disappointing loss to Banyule and a win hereshould see them safe in D2 for next season. A five-goal haulfrom MMaatttt GGooooddiieerr and a best on ground performance fromAAaarroonn SStteevveennss wasn’t enough to get the combine over the lineagainst Emmaus St Leos, but this match is certainly a drop inclass compared to the sides that they have faced over the pastfortnight. I fancy an upset in this clash, with St Marys/Salesianto throw everything they have at the Raiders. CCaarrll SSaaggee willneed a big game for the home side, while the performances ofGGooooddiieerr and JJeerreemmyy DDwwyyeerr will be crucial for the visitors. StMarys/Salesian by three points.

GGlleenn EEiirraa $$11..3333 vv BBeennttlleeiigghh $$33..1100A big local derby with plenty at stake for both clubs today at

Packer Park. And fansshould be treated to a goodgame. Glen Eira lost theirspot in the top four lastweek by losing to Ivanhoeand will be keen to reclaim that position this week. Bentleighlost their match against Old Westbourne with a poor openingquarter and will be sweating on the fitness of JamesRobertson this week and hoping he returns to the senior side.I am not sure what has gone wrong at Glen Eira over the pastmonth, but I am sure they will bounce back soon. Qualityplayers such as CChhrriiss MMaassssiiss,, AAlleexx TTssiirrooggiiaannnniiss and SSccoottttDDiiaammoonndd rarely stay down for too long. Walshy is sure to havehis troops fired up for this match, but can the hard bodies ofthe Saints match it with the youngsters of Bentleigh? If it is adry day Bentleigh are a huge chance but, at home, I have togive the nod to the Saints. Glen Eira by 18 points.

WWeerrrriibbeeee $$11..2200 vv IIvvaannhhooee $$44..1100They keep on winning, but Werribee’s past two performanceshave been below par and they will be keen to find some formback at Soldiers Reserve prior to the finals. Last week againstTherry Penola, AAnnddrreeww TTeeddeessccoo showed some of his old form,CChhrriiss SSccuuddaammoorree turned a tagging role into attack, whileNNaatthhaann RReennaauutt, on return from injury, had an impact straightaway. Considering they have four of their last five games athome, Werribee will still finish either first or second so it willjust be a matter of trying a couple of different things andfinding some form for the Tigers. One team that is in-form isIvanhoe. I may have underrated the Hoes somewhat during theseason, but if they can win this one they will be well on theirway to cementing a spot in the top four. 200 gamer TTrraavviissOO’’NNeeiillll was in fine form against Glen Eira last week and hecontinues to defy the critics week in week out with impressiveperformances. Although Werribee may be in a mini formslump and Ivanhoe are playing good footy, it is too tough to goagainst the home side in this one. Werribee by 21 points.

OOlldd WWeessttbboouurrnnee $$11..2255 vv TThheerrrryy PPeennoollaa $$33..5500The Warriors are making a big run at the finals and, a win here,could see them claim a spot in the top four for the first timethis season. A stunning opening term was the catalyst for OldWestbourne’s 20-point victory over Bentleigh on Saturday andit was good to see BBeenn HHuuttttoonn once again among the bestplayers. Eleven goals from CCoorreeyy BBaannnniisstteerr wasn’t enough toget Therry Penola over the line against Werribee last start andits hard to see them troubling Old Westbourne in this one. Ifthe visitors are to prevail they will need some players to help

Bannister out in front of goals as it is hard to win matcheswhen you have only one scoring avenue towards goal.Warriors on a roll and should be too strong. Old Westbourneby 44 points.

It would be great to hear from every club after each round tohelp me in writing my weekly column. Please send allmatch reports, social events, milestones and anything elsethat may be of interest to [email protected] by5:00pm on Monday.

“Your Coaches’ Association”

SOCIAL FOOTY “OF THE UTMOST IMPORTANCE”

An important aspect of a successful football club is to have a healthy social life.Maintaining the involvement of the partners of players and officials at our level goes a longway to creating harmony amongst the group.

During the pre season the building of the social factor usually commences at the conclusionof the Friday session with a drink and a barbie as an introduction for new and old playersalike. This is also important for the “new” coach who needs to take every opportunity tomeet and get to know his new players.

Most clubs have structured social Calenders which commence with the “Seasons Launch”prior to Round 1. This is a great opportunity to introduce new players and sponsors to theclub stalwarts.

Through out the season there are set nights such as “Past and Present Players Night”.Which provides a good chance for new people to hear about the history of YOUR CLUB.

Sometimes the best functions are the unplanned nights where the group meet at the localhotel after the game to mingle and chat in the company of mates.

Late in the season whether fighting for finals or battling to avoid relegation the playinggroup can meet for dinner on a Tuesday evening at the local pizza place.What all this socializing does is build spirit between the players and coaches. When thisoccurs it is hoped that when the crunch comes on the field the group pulls together to helpeach other achieve success. Hopefully this provides that extra 1% edge that every coach islooking for from their group.

Above all what a healthy social life does is provide something coaches sometimes neglectand that is ENJOYMENT. This is after all why most players play our great game.

The Only Ball VAFA Players Fly For.

nothing away. EErrccoollii withfour majors here wastelling. The visitors wouldbe a bit disappointed heretravelling with only amodest effort.

Elsternwick oval saw the match of the round with bothsides at three quarter time in with a huge chance ofwinning. Heaps of nominations for goals of the day fromthe likes of SSmmiitthh and GGrraaccee for the red and black armyand SSttrriicckkllaanndd and WWhhyyttee for the Turtles kept the fanson edge all day. In the end the Turtles fell in here andwere lucky, the host here lose another close game andare almost certain the miss finals. But this was by allaccounts a great game for the VAFA to enjoy in theirback yard.

Latrobe proved here that if fight and fight all day at themost difficult of away venues then sometimes you getthe points and the belief comes flowing back in spades.They probably will miss out for 2009 in our section butthis was a stirring win. St Johns form had been poorhowever at TThhoommaass CCaarrrroollll reserve they rarely struggle.BBiiggggss and MMccMMaasstteerr won a lot of the ball all day for thevisitors and gave their forwards enough possession thepost the winning score. CCaacchhiiaa had a good here for StJohns but they are heading south and quickly.

PREVIEWSIf I can be so bold this looks an easy round to pick – let’sgo then. Eltham host St Johns and can win this andsolidify the top four spot they hold. Forty points themargin. Willy can win at home with a near full strengthunit against Uni High, Hawthorn will win at homeagainst a slightly rejuvenated Latrobe by five goals,whilst Powerhouse will surge ahead again at the handsof Swinburne by fifty points. The Cup game will seeMonash win again against Elsternwick by 20 points.

Well this is my first report as a travelling journalist –currently on tour in the old dart a stone’s throw fromLord’s cricket ground. MMaarrkk NNiiccoollaass and I were justdiscussing the game in detail – the future of the IPL andTest Cricket. I then turned his attention to the greatgame that is AFL and he was fascinated by the statisticthat we play 22 per side over some six months perseason? How on earth do you Aussies find suchcommitment he quipped – it got me thinking. It really isa tremendous challenge for suburban clubs and as weknow the season ends up being a series on momentumswings. I told him this next few weeks are critical – heis heading off the Headingly next, whilst I go to Francefor the Tour to see CCaaddeell EEvvaannss keep his yellow jersey!

The league ladders got the job done easily enough at StJames Park, thrashing the D4 bound Swinburne side byover 120 points. The goals came from anyone andeveryone it seemed, great to see WWhheeeelleerr and LLeeee backin the action, not so great for the opponents though.MMccNNaammaarraa and HHaattffiieelldd remain in super form. TheRazorbacks did get some good service from LLeeddggeerr andBBuunnccllee in the middle all day.

Hawthorn with PPeetteerr TTyyssoonn coaching game 200 –although that might be game 2000 playing and coaching– had a great day in celebrating the coaches efforts witha soft win against a terrible Gryphons outfit. The youngside was on fire in the last quarter smashing Monashwith goal after goal. Brothers PPaauull and JJaammeess KKeeeegghhaannhad better afternoons than any other time this season,Ogee again with goals keeping the chances of a tone ofgoals on track. A great day for them as they are back ontrack after the Brens Oval hiccup. Monash are now inreal trouble to finish fourth as Eltham and Powerhouseboth won at the weekend, it is now a virtual EliminationFinal for all clubs outside the four this weekend and oldrival Elsternwick will fight hard to retain the Murphy-Wells cup. Some positives came from the form of MMiicckk‘‘CCrraacckkeerrjjaacckk’’ MMaallllooyy at CHB as well as part-timeRRuucckkmmaann PPhhiill GGoommiizzeell around the ground, but they hadvery few four quarter players.

PPaauull SSoossiicc was missing his old mate DD BBoollaanndd lastweekend at Ross Gregory but he played a gem of agame in the absence of the leader down back to helpPowerhouse shut down Uni High and enhance furthertheir final hopes. The Slushies are in form now andscoring a little heavier. The defence continues to give

well up forward the gamewas virtually over at halftime. Box Hill North nevergave in but with players ofthe ilk of DDaavviidd MMaarrttiinniiabsent it was always goingto be a hard task. AAnnddrreeww BBeeaauummoonntt worked hard all day forthe demons and was well supported by SShhaauunn IIrrvviinnee.North Brunswick again gave the Falcons a scare as they stayedwith the form team of the competition virtually until the last tenminutes of the game. This time Albert Park were able to finishwith a solid win thanks to the efforts of WWiilllliiaamm MMccIInnddooee inthe ruck. JJuussttiinn KKaannee provided the drive around the grounddespite some tight attention from AAnnddrreeww MMoouunnttnneeyy, andBBrreennddaann MMuurrnnaannee finished well with five goals. BradRobertson continued his good recent form on the wing forNorth Brunswick and JJeezzzzaa FFrreeeemmaann was lively down forward.In the other two games, from which there were no reports,West Brunswick were far too strong for Syndal Tally Ho andBulleen Cobras returned to the winners list with a comfortablewin over South Mornington.

ROUND 14 PREVIEWSMatch of the RoundMt Lilydale v St Francis XavierIn the battle for a top three spot, two of the more physicalteams in the competition meet head-on. KKaarrll RRuussssoo and GGlleennnnPPeeaarrssoonn will arm wrestle with CChhrriiss GGiibbssoonn and TToomm WWaallll ina ‘no holds barred’ battle in the middle. Meanwhile BBeennSSppeenncceerr and JJuussttiinn RRoobbeerrttss will provide dangerous targets inthe forward half for their respective teams. MMiicchhaaeell RRhhooddeessand LLuukkee HHiicckkeeyy have hit top form recently and I think thisalong with the home ground advantage will help Mt Lilydalereverse the previous result. Mountain Men by 11pts.Albert Park v Kew Albert Park are the form side of the competition whilst Kewhave lost only two all year, but stumbled last week. It wasinteresting to note at least six changes for the Bears from theirprevious round with notable absentees including Greg Bell. IfKew get a few of these back, or the senior debutants learn

D4 SECTIONby Duncan Palmer

With five rounds to go the five now seems settled and thoughboth Richmond Central and Box Hill North remainmathematical chances, it would take either a small miracle ora Solomonesque brain explosion for Mt Lilydale or Albert Parkto fall asunder.Whilst we have not had a wet winter, again, we certainly haveexperienced a cold one. It is worthwhile taking some time toconsider all the volunteers that have helped keep teams on thepark through these periods. Richmond Central and Box HillNorth are recognising the volunteers this week with theirsenior game honouring volunteers from both club, and I thinkthis is a worthwhile exercise. From the club secretary who putthe padding on the posts each Saturday morning to thereserves umpire and the time-keeper, this can sometimes be athankless task. While they are standing in the middle of theoval with their knees shaking so hard that they leave bruisesand the frostbite is only allayed by dipping fingers and toes incups of tea, the only thing that keeps them motivated is theirlove of the club. Take some time to thank these people. Buythem a coffee, hot dog, or a beer after the game, have a chatto them and make them feel part of the team. Their hearts ridewith you on the field.St Francis Xavier bounced back to form with an awe-inspiringdisplay of football against Kew. The Xmen grabbed an earlylead with the aid of a stiff breeze; however four goals hardlyseemed enough. In the second quarter though, the home sidebelied the wind advantage and kicked nine goals against it toput the game out of Kew’s reach. The second half continued inthis vein despite the best efforts of LLuukkee OO’’CCoonnnneellll and CCrraaiiggHHoorrnnee for the Bears, and the final margin possibly flatteredKew. St Francis Xavier were delighted with their team effortand were reluctant to name best players however AAnntthhoonnyyPPrryyoorr and GGlleennnn PPeeaarrssoonn were particularly notable in theirperformances on the day. If CCrraaiigg HHoorrnnee was the ‘undertaker’ a few weeks ago, MMiicchhaaeellVViioollaa was the gravedigger as Eley Park well and truly slammedthe lid on Richmond’s finals aspirations with their best win forthe season. Eley Park is a certainly somewhat of an enigma.The Sharks best is competitive with the top three, but theyhave been unable to sustain this for even two weeks. Thisweek DDaavviidd BBeennnneetttt,, MMiicchhaaeell VViioollaa and AAddrriiaann PPiillllaayy led theSharks to a seven goal win with four quarters of sustainedaggressive football. Richmond would be disappointed,however should be proud that they have continued theirimprovement, and would be looking to their reserves to playfinals this season.Mt Lilydale also put an undermanned Box Hill North’s finalshopes to rest with four quarters of dominance.

quickly from last week, they may well challenge the Falcons,however with SSeeaann AAllllaann and BBrreennddaann MMuurrnnaannee firing, thehome side will have too many avenues to goal. Albert Park by23 points.South Mornington v North BrunswickThe two youngest teams in the comp meet with both sidescoming off losses but improved recent form. RRiicckk SSiissssoonnsswas missing for the Tigers last week and they will be hopingfor his return, whilst MMiicckk SSoorrlleettttoo and DDaavvee PPiizzzzaarrii go headto head for the ‘green and gold’ best and fairest. I think Northwill just triumph in this game by 3 points.Syndal Tally Ho v Eley ParkSyndal would be happy to take any opponent after meeting theMagpies last week but unfortunately meet a Sharks unit thathas hit its best form of the year. The Viola show will lead EleyPark to a 52point victory.Richmond Central v Box Hill NorthIn the battle for the Volunteers Memorial Cup these two clubswill battle to keep their slim finals chances alive. Both sideswould be disappointed with last week and will once again fightout a thriller. I think Richmond may be closer to full strengthand will win by 13 points.Bulleen Cobras v West BrunswickBulleen have definitely improved this season with the ilk ofJJaassoonn LLaauurreennccee supplementing the tried and true like TTiimmCCoonnnn and BBeenn CCooookkssoonn. This week though they welcome therampant Magpies unit, and though they will give their best Icannot see them get close. West Brunswick by 45 points.Reserves: SM, EP, WB, RC, Kew, AP

SUNDAY

On my first trip for the Interstate clash with Victoria as SAAFL’s president Iam looking forward to the game. In any game of football between the big “V”and the Croweaters, there is always very strong rivalry and this game will beno different. So to our SA boys forget about being nice – winning is the onlything!The second part of this trip is the AAFC meeting and official functions. Forme I am looking forward to meeting with all of my counterparts from Victoria,Tasmania and Western Australia, all of us have one goal which is thebetterment of football. This for me carries on great importance because of the

opportunity to discuss all aspects of football and find out new ideas and innovations that we may nothave in South Australia. Also we can pass on what we are doing and these points may be of value tomy interstate counterparts. I look forward to meeting with our host VAFA and it’s President Nick Bourke who I have always hasa very good rapport with, and am sure this will continue. My view on interstate games are that theyare essential not only to reward and recognise the best players in each state, but to promote AmateurFootball in all states and to further try and improve this great game. Also lift the Amateur profile forthe State & Federal governments and get them to understand the tremendous work that we do withall our volunteers at the Grassroots level of football. In closing I do think all involved on this weekend and look forward to a good game of footy. The final words are – “Go the Croweaters” beat the Vics.

Gino CapogrecoPresidentSA Amateur Football League.

On behalf of the VAFA Board and our member clubs, I extend a warmwelcome to all members of the SAAFL who have made the journey toJunction Oval today and in particular their President Gino Capogreco andCEO Mark Shadiac. The VAFA has a long history of competition with theSAAFL, having been our first representative opponent in 1925.

These matches are always special as they give our respectivecompetitions the chance to fulfil one of our main aims - to give the youngmen the opportunity to play at a higher level and be afforded theopportunity to further enhance their playing careers.

The VAFA has been keenly anticipating today’s match given recent defeats at the hands SouthAustralia at U23 level. For a proud Association with a representative record such as ours, thishas been something that we are very keen to rectify. Our young chargers, led by new CoachMick Dwyer, have worked hard to ensure they put their best foot forward and wear the “BigV” with pride.

The Australian Amateur Football Council, of which I am Chairman, warmly welcomedTasmania into the fold this year and I was lucky enough to witness a fantastic match thereagainst Western Australia last month. The match was of exceptional standard and if today’sgame comes close to that level, we are in for a treat indeed. With the re-introduction ofTasmania into the AAFC, member states will now only play one U23 match per season placingenormous importance on these matches. A dynamic and exciting challenge now engulfs thosemember states, which is what representative football is all about.

Today’s match is being hosted at Junction Oval, enabling vital renovation works to beconducted at the VAFA’s home ground, Sportscover Arena. Our thanks go to the MCC forallowing the VAFA to utilise this facility and I’m sure the players will enjoy the quality surface.

Good luck to all players taking part today and enjoy the experience. Opportunities like thesedo not come around very often and I would particularly like to congratulate our players on theirselection.

It would be remiss of me not to thank and congratulate all the volunteers who assist in makingthese games a reality. Their work is sometimes onerous, thankless and exhausting, but all do itfor the love of the sport and their Association and we are fortunate indeed to have the calibreof these people involved.

I wish everyone an enjoyable day and look forward to catching up with our many SouthAustralian friends.

10 YEARS AGO – 1998In A Section, Old Brighton hosted Collegians.Collegians were headed for B Section at thecompletion of the season without even one win on theboard. Brighton were still a chance to avoidrelegation. By half time Collegians had signaled theirintentions and held a slender lead, 8.4 to 7.3. Warne-Smith and Mooney were particularly dangerous forthe Lions while Oakley and Pirrie were doing allthey could for the Tonners. Collegians gained anadditional lead in the all important third term andafter an initial rally from Brighton, Collegiansstormed ahead with 7 goals for the quarter and a finalwinning score of 20.8 to 13.11. The result meant thatOld Brighton could also not avoid relegation. Bestplayers – Humphrey, Van Der Venne, Warne-Smith(7), Cleary, Mooney, Nisbet (Collegians) andOakley, Pirrie, Tymms, Van Den Dugen, Pryor,Alderson (Old Brighton). In B Section, it was a big turn up as Ivanhoe playeda terrific third term against MHSOB and the lead wasto change 10 times before Ivanhoe recorded a greatvictory, 19.16 to 17.13 and the ‘Hoes now had achance to avoid relegation, although there was muchwork to be done. MHSOB on the other hand wereonly hanging on to fourth place by percentage. Bestplayers – Timms, Brown, Rawley, Williams (7),Lee, Pace (Ivanhoe) and Cassell, Pertzel (4),Albergo, Fairchild, Thompson, Birkett (MHSOB). Ormond congratulated Anthony “Oofa” Grace onreaching his 150th game for the Monds. Beginning inthe U19’s in 1989 and progressing through thereserves to the seniors, “Oofa” had given the club fineservice on and off the field.

. . . Retrospectiveby Geoff Reilley

5 YEARS AGO - 2003It was a terrific competition in D1 Section with only4 points separating the top four teams and no firmfavourite identified to date. The match of the day wasbetween Uni Blacks (4th) and Monash Blues (1st), atthe MCG as a curtain raiser to the AFL match.Starting at 10.50 am did not lessen the quality of thecontest in this all important fixture. The game wasvery even throughout the first half with the Blacksgaining a 2 goal break just before half time. Theyscored freely in the third quarter and although theirreturn was not overly great (2.6) Monash could notpenetrate the Blacks’ defence and they only managed2 behinds. The final quarter saw only 1 goal apieceand the Blacks proved worthy winners, 9.20 to 5.10.Best players – Price, Mackie, Bevacqua, Viello (3),Sibilia, Barry (Uni Blacks) and Payne, Blackley,Nevill, Chessart, Smith, Smyth (Monash Blues).Ashley Hoogendyk and Jeremy Heffernan were thefield umpires. After taking into account the remainingD1 matches, Monash dropped to third position andthe Blacks remained in fourth place.In D2 Section, undefeated ladder leaders, PeninsulaOld Boys, had their hands full out at Fearon Reserveagainst Williamstown CYMS who were very keen tostay in touch with the top four. Williamstown werefantastic all day and pushed Peninsula to the limit.They were very unlucky to have victory taken awayin the dying minutes as Peninsula kept their unbeatenrecord intact 14.10 to 14.6. It had been a veryentertaining match. Best players – Payze (3),Murray, Crean, Teelow, T Prendergast (3), Davis(Peninsula) and Twist, Munro, Featherston (3), JMcCutcheon, Phemister, Cocks (Williamstown). The VAFA wished their senior representative teamthe best of luck in the coming weekend.

an even first quarter of entertaining football, theclassy Old Haileybury outfit upped the ante andkicked ahead by three goals. Adding another 8 pointsto their lead at three quarter time, Old Haileyburycoasted through the final quarter to run out easywinners, 15.14 to 9.10. Best players – Jones (3),Smith, Baxter, Connell, Cameron, Scaunich (OldHaileybury) and Jones, Driscoll, Baker, Trabinger,Francois, Boyd (St Kilda CBC). In D Section, State Bank were sitting fifth andElsternwick sixth on percentage. They met in thisround and the loser could easily drop off the pace byfalling two games behind the top four. An even firstquarter was followed by a torrid second term withboth sides attacking consistently. It was State Bankthat had the better of the second quarter to take animportant four goal lead into the second half. Thethird term was all State Bank as they banged on sixgoals to nil and in doing so had the game all wrappedup with a ten goal lead. The Wicks fought back in thelast but could only make up a few goals and finishedwell short, 8.11 to 16.14. Best players – Connelly,Maher, Matherson, Kay, Guy, Goldsmith (StateBank) and McCooke, Russell, Farrington, Murphy,Rosewarne (Elsternwick). D Section Field Umpires were – Pat Maebus, RobMayston, David Dobson, Peter Simpson, SteveClinch, Richard Eastwood and Paul Cherry.

30 YEARS AGO – 1978In D Section, it was an opportunity for St Kevins,currently in second place and equal on points with topof the ladder, Power House, to grab top place. PowerHouse had other ideas however, and were excellent inthe first quarter kicking 6.6 to 2.2. SKOBS bouncedback early in the second quarter before ‘The House’asserted the pressure again to be almost five goals infront at the main break. Another six goal quarter byPower House in the third was only answered with asolitary major from SKOBS. There were plenty ofconversions by both teams in a high scoring finalterm with Power House winning easily, 23.16 to 13.7and top spot was theirs alone. Best players –Dempsey, Bredyk, Evans, Stafford, Perry (4),Coloe (Power House) and Brennan, Radford,Hannan (6), P Campbell, Hawkins, Lowe (SKOBS).In E Section, St Bedes and Bulleen Templestowemet to decide who would hold top place at the end ofthis round. Bulleen Temp left their run far too late andafter a great third quarter, St Bedes kicked 8.3 to 3.2and then had enough ‘in the bag’ to hold off a fastfinishing combine – final scores St Bedes 20.12 toBulleen Temp 15.15 with St Bedes now on top by 4points. Best players – Signoretti, Collins (4),Pendleton, Cecchi, Boyce, O’Shannassy (St Bedes)

and Johnston, Tenace (5), Lockhart, D’Agostino,Hooper, Ling (Bulleen Temp). Greg Dunkley earned the plaudits of all atCommonwealth Bank Football Club on reachinghis 150th game. Known for his long clearing dashesfrom the backline and his “chats” with the umpires,Greg was also highly regarded for his administrativequalities around the club and was a Life Member.

40 YEARS AGO – 1968In A Section, Uni Blues met Old Paradians in abattle for top place. The Blues’ effective handball andplay-on style enabled them to kick 5.2 to 1.3 in thefirst quarter. Parade fought back and made up someleeway in the second quarter but the Blues surgedagain in the third term with eight goals to one and alead of over ten goals. A low scoring final quarter sawBlues win 15.14 to 6.16 in what was a disappointingresult for Paradians. Best players – Calcott, Moylan,Whittakers, Moran (6), Norman, Sykes (Uni Blues)and Mansfield, Ford (4), Sambell, P Mount,O’Brien, Wegner (Old Paradians). Melbourne High School Old Boys were proud toannounce 100 games for their Captain and backpocket player, Ian Wood. Ian’s fine play resulted inhim representing Victoria against South Australia inthe Carnival in Tasmania the previous season. Histireless and determined play in defence was always aninspiration to his team mates and he was also anexcellent clubman in his role as Honorary ClubTreasurer.

50 YEARS AGO – 1958The final four in A Section was virtually sealed whenOrmond defeated fifth placed Ivanhoe, 14.10 to11.11. Ivanhoe were now three games plus percentageoutside the top group. It was only Ormond’s 4 quickgoals in the middle of the last quarter that made thedifference in what had been a tight game. Best players– Hanna (3), McCormack, Davidson, Ross (3),O’Connell, Bridges (Ormond) and Manuell, Neason,Pickett, Whybrow, Balaam, Hughes (Ivanhoe). A Section captains were G Reed (Alphington), AReside (State Bank), L Hillyear (Coburg), J Byrne(Ormond), M Hughes (Ivanhoe), M Russell (OldScotch), G Hibbins (Collegians) and R (Bruce)Church (Old Melburnians). Bill Petering (State Savings Bank) played his 100thgame against Ormond. After playing in manypositions over the years, Bill was now an outstandingfull back. He was also a long standing committeemanand the players’ representative. (Bill’s son Grantbecame an Ormond senior premiership player in ASection in 1990).

Room ClearerOne of the drawbacks of anumpire’s room is having thetoilet in the same room; this opens up to presentinganother side of you that your fellow umpires might notwant to be present to. Poor KKeevviinn SSeeggoottaa who had notbeen well and on medication, should have told his matesthat a side effect of the medication would be a smell thatwould most likely kill a canary if it was sent forth toinvestigate. As the fellow umpires still had to dopaperwork in the room, all doors were open and the smellwas last seen growing legs and walking away.

RotationWith no A, B and C grade games this week, this presentsus with the first week of rotation for many higher gradeumpires. As there might not be any more rotations due tothe unavailability of umpires, the advisors have thoughtthat they could do a years worth in this one week. So lookto the lower grades.

HamstrungAge shall not weary them, however the hamstrings mightfrom time to time just give out on us.

I will never forget my first game of First 18 football forMarcellin Old Collegians, or ‘The Old Boys’ as weused to call them back then. I had just turned 18 andalthough I did not realise it at the time, I wasembarking on one of the most significant journeys ofmy life.We often forget that a significant role that football playsin the community is to teach boys how to be good men.I often think of Amateur Football is the “Rugby Union”of the Australian Rules code. Rugby Union, it is said, isa game that develops leadership, team spirit, courage,sportsmanship, and friendship. I have a strong sensethat Amateur Football does just that.Every 18 year old wants to learn how to be a goodman. Perhaps the best way to do that is to surroundoneself with good men and learn from them as theylead by example on the field of battle and within thecommunity that is Amateur Football.I know I had some fine role models in AmateurFootball. Laurie Aghan was an incredible example ofpassion, fierce love and a willingness to stand hisground for his team. Peter O’Donoghue was a warmfatherly figure who knew how to coax somethingbetter out of you.And perhaps my favorite of them all was Gavin White.His belief in me and my team mates was palpable. Hiscapacity to get you to give more when there wasnothing left to give still sends a chill up my spine.But the other thing I got from Amateur Football wassomething quite selfish: a front row seat to some of thegreatest athleticism and football talent ever on show. Iwas right there amongst it week after week to watchthe feats of Gartner, Marchesani, Cooper and the Jonesbrothers. And we got to play against the divine talentsof Nick Wilton, Nick Byrne, Mike Yeo, Bruce Bourne,the Rittermans, Simon Beddoe, Shane Murphy, ChrisStone, the Curtains, Jim Bennett, Nick Daff, SteveLaussen and many others.But when I reflect on my own personal growth as aman, I think of my personal contests. Just about everyweek I faced an opponent of great talent and I had torise above my own limitations. I was never a giftedfootballer, but I made up for that with my love ofintense physical training. So for me, I had the enginewhile many of them had the talent. What a contest.Before a game against an opponent like Yeo, Rohan

Brown, John Houghton, Alan Naylor, Gus Carroll,Paul Considine, John Cortese, Glen Cook, JohnNoonan, Steve Pirrie or Mick Green, my excitementrose as the challenge approached. These guys reallymade me work. Sometimes I won, sometimes I lost,but the respect at the end for the game was alwaysthere. Friendships moulded in the heat of battle.So being selected to play state football alongside theseguys was a profound experience for which I willforever be grateful. I played two games for Victoria1983 before a badly torn pectoral brought my footballto an end. In that same year, I was the 1st emergencyfor the All Australian team and relished that chance totrain with the best of the best.But there is something even better about AmateurFootball. Whilst the contest is serious and the StateFooty is dramatic and important, there are thehumorous moments that bind us all as we remember tonot take football or ourselves too seriously.In about 1982, we were playing a game against another“Old Boys” outfit at Marcellin. They had a FullForward who probably could have out marked TonyLockett. He could really play, but he had a bad dose ofwhite line fever. He would get highly emotional if anumpire failed to recognise an “obvious free kick”.On this day, he felt cheated by a rather colorful umpireand proceeded to follow the umpy all over the groundberating, lecturing, pleading and lamenting. He evenmade it as far as the back pocket. It was a sight tobehold. The poor umpy was really copping it. In the last quarter, they were coming back at us and thefull forward, having gotten his mind back on the jobwas starting to make his presence felt. Somehow hegot out by himself, and in a vain attempt to spoil hismark, I arrived late, buried him and gave him a couplearound the ear, just to upset his concentration perhapswhilst shooting for goal.Later in the rooms, I was standing having a drink witha few blokes and the umpire appeared by my side andhanded me a beer. Thanking him, I asked why. He said,“Big Tooms, I saw what you did to him (the fullforward) and it brought a tear to my eye. It’s just whatI wanted to do so I owe you.”Only in Amateur Footy hey! Thanks guys for thebattles, the experience, the learning and thefriendships.

Old Haileybury v Old Mentonians: After disappointinglosses to both teams last week they will be looking tobounce back with much needed wins. I don’t think youcan go past Haileybury at Home and that’s who I amtipping. Old Haileybury 3 goals. Oakleigh v Ormond: Top v Bottom here and I think thatit will be a very lop sided contest with the visitorscoming away with the points. After a disappointing losslast week and some good players coming back into theteam I think this will be a romping. Monds by 10 goals

Blowing a gale forcewind out at Gary Smorgan oval, the jackers were able tokeep Prahran to only a goal in the premiership quarterand then ran out easy winners in the last. The Threemusketeers in Selzer, Freed and Steinberg all put inclassy games and T.Leary for Prahran gave the jackerssome headaches.MHSOB v Parkdale Vultures: Game of the round in afantastic tight tussle although it seems Melb. Highweren’t without some inaccuracy. R.Willmott booted 4sausage rolls and T.Rendell was a ball magnet all day.Price and Boland linked up well and created somefantastic run throughout the match.Peninsula v Bentleigh: Bentleigh have finals in theirsights after some recent good form and a controlled winover the Pirates. For the Pirates N.Coy jagged 4 goalsbut it was all Bentleigh as Rodwell kicked 4 of the bestand was seen as Best a field and T.Backman clearlyknows his role and faired well in the Best players.Bentleigh now must beat all below them and perhapsneed to cause upset of the year when they face theMight of the Monash Blues this week at home.St Bedes/Mentone v Hampton Rovers: Wow!

With Finals just around the cornerBeauy were desperate to stay with the top four andproved just how much they want to play finals with acomfortable win. D. Bardoel and M. Myers-Snyderswere the best for the Panthers while M. De Fontenay, J.Mapleston and R. Cathcart all played important roles forBeauy. Oakleigh v Collegians: After a good effort last weekagainst Caulfield, Oakleigh just went to sleep and onlymanaged to kick 1 goal in 4 quarters of footy. Takingnothing away from Collegians who were excellent andmanaged to pile on a massive 35 goals which is one forthe records books I would imagine. J. Costigan and P.Kurth battled hard all day for Oakleigh but W. Johnson,M. Raphael and N. Corp were just too good for the homeside.

TThhiiss WWeeeekk RRoouunndd 1144::Beaumaris v Mazenod: Promises to be a close incounter with not much separating these two teams but Ijust cant see Mazenod beating Beauy especially whenthey are playing at home. Beauy by 4 goalsCaulfield v Old Brighton: In what shapes up to be Matchof the round with both teams coming of very big winslast week but who will be able to hold there good form?If Caulfield can keep there same side in from last week Ican’t see them losing at home. Caulfield by 5 goalsCollegians v Old Melburnians: Very important clash forboth teams here with Collegians looking to make a latefinals birth and Melbs trying to hold there top spot. AndI think that’s exactly what they will do even though theyare away from home. Melburnians by 7 goals

In a surprise result eighthplaced Emmaus/ St Leo’sdefeated fourth placed Ormond by fifteen points.Leaders, Old Camberwell gained confidence for their final’scampaign by defeating St Bede’s/ Mentone by thirty twopoints. The loss saw St Bede’s Mentone drop to third place.

PREVIEW OF ROUND 14SSeeccttiioonn 11Collegians should prove too talented for the determinedMazenod even on Central Reserve.In a preview of a final Old Xaverians play their longstanding rivals Prahran. Seldom has Prahran won againstthe Xaverians, who seem to find extra incentive against the“Two Blues”. This season there is very little between thetwo teams and a Prahran win would not surprise. However,I suspect the Old Xaverians will fight this game right outand win by a few points.St Kevin’s should record a long awaited third victory bybeating Old Scotch.Leaders, University Blues face a danger game against DeLa Salle as each team should be at full strength. Over thethirteen rounds the Blues have the more impressive recordand I select them to win this game.In the afternoon game, the disappointing Old Xaverians 2play Old Melburnians, who made a slow start to the season.Recent form leads me to select Old Melburnians.

SSeeccttiioonn 22The big game will be that between third placed UniversityBlacks and leaders, Monash Blues on the University Oval.With no A Section games and on their home ground I selectUniversity Blacks.Two battling sides in Old Trinity and Fitzroy Reds meet atBulleen. With an expected return of A Reserve players, Iselect Old Trinity.St Bernard’s should win again by defeating Old Scotch.Today is an opportunity for Old Brighton to win again bydefeating tenth placed Caulfield Grammarians, which I feelthey will do.

CLUB XVIII SECTIONby Norm Nugent

Two Rounds remain and interest in the composition of eachof the final fours remains high as positions can alter in eachsection and the fifth side in two Sections can still make thefinals.

REVIEW OF ROUND 13SSeeccttiioonn 11A very accurate Prahran defeated De La Salle by thirty threepoints.Collegians proved they are serious contenders by defeatingreigning premiers, Old Xaverians by five points.In a good standard game Old Melburnians proved tootalented for the determined Mazenod, whose best were:Luke Androulakis, Chalk, Pollard and Robinson.Old Xaverians 2 scored by sixteen points over St Kevin’s.Leaders, University Blues received a forfeit from OldScotch.

SSeeccttiioonn 22Leaders, Monash Blues defeated fourth placed Whitefriarsby thirty eight points, which has put Whitefriars underrenewed pressure to hold fourth place.Box Hill North continued their march towards fourth placewith a fifty seven point win over a depleted Old Trinity.St Bernard’s scored a meritorious sixty three point win overOld Brighton at Brighton Beach.Caulfield Grammarians were held goalless by UniversityBlacks, whose winning margin was one hundred and tenpoints.An accurate Fitzroy Reds won by forty points over OldScotch.

NNoorrtthhIn the closest result of the Round, an inaccurate Kewdefeated North Old Boys/ St Patrick’s by two points.Old Carey, who lost to Marcellin by fifty one points, werequite competitive and never made possession easy for theundefeated leaders.Bulleen – Templestowe kept their finals’ chances alive byrecording a twenty eight point win over Therry Penola.In a low scoring game, Old Westbourne defeated Box HillNorth by ten points.

SSoouutthhSt Mary’s/ Salesian jumped to second place as a result oftheir eighty three point victory over Old Geelong.An accurate Oakleigh scored a thirty six point win overBeaumaris.

The winner of the afternoon game between Box Hill Northand Whitefriars could well clinch fourth place. CanWhitefriars kick straight and can they match the fleet offoot runners from Box Hill North? The result could goeither way and I select Whitefriars, whose experience andsteadiness could prove vital.

SSoouutthhIn a final’s preview St Mary’s/ Salesian visit OldCamberwell. I select Old Camberwell because of their homeground advantage and greater availability of players.Ormond should return to the winning list by defeating Old

Geelong even on Como Park.Oakleigh, at home, should prove talented enough to defeatEmmaus/ St Leo’s.I expect St Bede’s/ Mentone to defeat Beaumaris atCheltenham.

NNoorrtthhOld Carey showed me sufficient form last week to warrantme selecting them to defeat Box Hill North today.In the local “derby”, North Old Boys/ St Patrick’s shoulddefeat Therry Penola.Bulleen – Templestowe with a final berth looming shoulddefeat Old Westbourne despite their long journey west.Kew will test Marcellin, but the undefeated ”Eagles” shouldwin again.
