EDITORIALMichael ShollySince the Australian <strong>Amateur</strong> <strong>Football</strong>Council (AAFC) became an Under 23championship, much of the VAFA’s investmentinto representative football has been inthe development area. This has producedopportunities for younger VAFA players to touroverseas. In 2005 and 2008, the All-AustralianU23 team visited Ireland. Last October, it wentto South Africa.The AAFC is shifting its tour focus fromcompetitive matches in line with the AFL’s aimof growing the game overseas, and this hasopened up an opportunity for the VAFA to senda representative team to Ireland at the end ofthis season.The Board has decided to reward the seniorplayers in our competition who have not hadthe opportunity that our younger players havehad. Next Saturday, the Big V will play threematches against the VCFL at Senior, PremierC Divisions and the U19 level. From the twoopen matches, twenty players will be invitedto represent the Big V in Ireland. Our aim isto choose a spread of players from across ourseven senior sections.In Ireland, we will play up to four InternationalRules matches, with three already confirmed.We have been fortunate to arrange gameswith the premier clubs in Galway, Cork andDublin. The All-Ireland team is touring Australiain November and each of these clubs will beinviting their local national players to bolsterthe strength of their team and turn thematches into major events for their clubs. Weare anticipating that each of these contestswill have thousands of people watching,and I am sure the experience of pulling onthe best jumper in football in front of a large,parochial crowd, and singing the anthem is theopportunity of a lifetime.To coincide with these matches, the VAFA isorganising a Supporters Tour. This tour will betailored specifically to meet the interests ofour supporters. Already on the program areeighteen holes at Portmarnock, a famous Irishlinks course, a visit to the Irish National Stud, arace meeting at Limerick, a local hurling match,a VAFA-exclusive tour of the famous maximumsecurity Prison in Portlaiose (pronounced PortLeesh), see Croke Park, visit Temple Bar and theGuinness Brewery in Dublin and take in all themagnificent castles and countryside. Of course,you will link up with and support the VAFAteam as they take on Ireland’s best. Check thesepages in two week’s time for full details of thetrip, which will provide memories of a lifetime.This is the first VAFA’s truly representative sideto tour overseas and it will take our competitionto a new level.

PREMIERMichael FitzgeraldREVERSAL OFFORTUNESometimes, football can be cruel. On Opening Day,De La ripped Uni Blues in a brutal display, with itsnew recruit Brett Eddy dominating the forwardsetup. Fast forward to last Saturday, and De La ledUni Blues by six goals at the first change, with thesame Brett Eddy running the water, having beencalled up for VFL duties Sunday. Then came JackWatts, four goals in the second term in one of themore devastating performances ever seen on aVAFA ground. By the half, Blues led, and by midthird-term, they’d shut the gate. De La slippedfrom third to fifth, but it got worse than that asEddy suffered a season-ending knee injury thenext day after starting brilliantly for the Pies. TheDe La dream forward set-up of Eddy, Moore andPickett died hard on a dirty weekend for the DairyBell denizens. Meanwhile, Blues have reeled off sixstraight and slotted into third spot. Charles Shaw isin dominating form in the middle, Al Austin, JohnMeagher and Richard Langham are great silencersand Watts and Lowcock remain massive threats upforward. De La has not lost its run, but its forwardline is in shreds. The hard work of Sam Nethersolein the ruck and solid team-running out of defencewent largely unrewarded, though Steve Mullerdid boot five. Mark Todd, still U19 eligible, lookedimpressive.Trinity and Scotch had played a draw first timeout, but the Greens headed to Camberwell to facea resurgent Cards line-up. The home team beganwell enough, playing solid into- the-wind footballas it had done the previous Sunday, but thingswent south in the second as the Andrew Ramsdenasserted himself with four goals into the breezeand the Ts went to the break with a solid lead, abreak they were able to maintain the rest of theway. Luke Pacconi was tops in green and BrettBarratt turned on the bet yet effort of his youngcareer and fellow small man Callum Pohl returnedto top form. Ominously, Tim Walsh was at hismost impressive of the campaign. The Red Menwere well served by young guns James Bowden,Tom McKinley and Scott Sherwen and had thebig forward Max van den Broek been offeredbetter service, he might have provided a foil forthe evergreen veteran at the other end. The wingave Trinity some breathing space, but cruelledScotch’s chances at a time when it appeared mostdangerous.Collegians hoped to repeat the football lessonthey gave Old Carey earlier in the campaign,but this was a much tighter affair, with the Lionsgrabbing a narrow lead early that proved to bethe difference. Nick Sautner has straightened upthe Lions and will prove a handful for every team’sdefence and the solid return to form of HarryCroft bodes well for them too. Jay Austerberry,in his first season with the Trotters, has proven aconsistent performer, slotting in along side theusual cast of performers, Ries, Scott, Strachan,Zimbachs et al. For the Panthers, the returningAndrew Willingham boosted the ruck division,while Paul Fiorenza and Al Parton gave them drive.While a win would have put Carey right back in thepicture, they’ll be satisfied that their performanceunder pressure was strong. From the other side,the Lions didn’t maul them, but claimed anothervictim anyway.Despite another grand performance from Sam“Death to Flying Things” Dunell, who from someaccounts took close to twenty grabs and bootedfour goals, OMs took another eight goal loss, withtheir defence having few answers to Matt Handleyand Chris Larkins. The enigmatic Brendan Gosswas off the leash for Xavs and found the footballregularly, while Karl Lombardozzi and JonnoNash and Ben Hayes, making his senior return,slogged it out for the Dark Blues. Xavs, who hadseveral players unavailable through injury, will behappy enough to jump back into the winners’ listand back into the four, while Melburnians againfinished on the wrong end of the contest andmust have felt another punch when the scorefrom Camberwell reached their ears. OMs fate willsurely be known now by the end of this month,with Old Scotch and Old Trinity in their immediatefuture following the break.TODAYSelections in BOLDOLD XAVERIANS v OLD HAILEYBURYCOLLEGIANS v OLD SCOTCHUNIVERSITY BLUES v OLD MELBURNIANSST BEDES/MT v DE LA SALLEOLD TRINITY v OLD CAREY2 THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2011SPORTS INJURY CASUALTY - OPEN 1-7 SATURDAY


One might have expected a more emphaticperformance from St Bede’s Mentone Tigers,coming off the loss to Scotch and facing thebottom club. Old Haileybury though, as we know,is a tough proposition at home and it took everyounce of effort from the Tiges to shake the Bloods.To be sure, their now traditional wayward goalkicking kept it closer than it might have been,as they had jmore pings than the home team inevery quarter but the first. Their three best – SamAnstey, Simon Richards and Jack Hellier – had notplayed the previous Sunday, while Juice Wintle,celebrating 250, ensured that there would be nosurprise result. Young Haileybury stars SpenceRoberts and Pete Gleadhill again led the way fortheir young team and Alex Johnston booted three.TODAY: Old Trinity and OldCarey might well be thegame of the round, withthe Greens jealous of ahome record and keen to atone for the collapsein R1 that allowed the Panthers to steamroll them.The other contests look less salivating. Xavs willbe looking to get into overdrive at Toorak Parkagainst the Bloods; Blues will be looking to ripOMs, Collegians should toss aside the challengefrom the perplexing Old Scotch. , De La is one ofthe few visiting clubs to have taken the pointsat Brindisi, but I’m not too sanguine about theirchances of doing it again. Still, just when thingsappear to be settling down, someone throws aspanner in the works.PREMIER LAST ROUND PREMIER RESERVEOld Xaverians 6.4 9.9 12.12 15.15 (105)Old Melburnians 2.1 5.3 6.6 8.9 (57)GOALS Old Xaverians: M.

PREMIER BJonathan HibbertVARSITY ASSASSINSUni Blacks are like women. No, it’s not thecoiffed hair or the dashing social agenda, northe delightful scones they offer; this team simplyfunctions in a manner incomprehensible to mytiny brain. After being humiliated by Beaumaris,Blacks bounced back by knocking off contendersOld Ivanhoe, and then scraping over Oakleigh onthe road; and now, have beheaded the previouslyundefeated ladder leaders. With Blacks leading athalf-time, the five goal deficit spurred Caulfield’sRyan Lewis and Simon Widjaja to counter attack,while Justin Perkins steered two straight; andby the last break, the Fields were abreast by twostraight kicks. Though, storming home with thewind in the final quarter were the crafty Blacks,delivering the coup-de-grace in a coup-d’état; onballersScott Weekley and Dan Costello ferocious,Huw Lacey pronounced a saviour, with Levi Kalmsand Tugboat Howgate dependably gluing thebackline fortress together.Having pushed SKOB’s and Caulfield in recentweeks, Beaumaris made amends for their R4 lossto the Eagles, by dealing out justice, with interest.With Matt Petering and Sam McBain on target, theSharks strode ahead at the main break by just overfour goals. Though windy conditions in the thirdquarter kept play tight, Marcellin’s Trent Carlsonproviding impetus, feeding Alastair Evans whobooted seven for the day. Still five goals downand desperate for final quarter heroics, Marcellin’stentative grip on the game was permanentlyloosened, Kelvin Barnes and Anthony Carroll bothsnagging majors, as the Sharks settle into fifthposition, just above Old Ivanhoe and Oakleigh.Casting a shadow over the ladder’s midsectionare Old Brighton, hitting their straps after a fifthsuccessive victory, this time after dumping OldIvanhoe, with a majestic eight goal final term intothe coastal squall. With a strong side, including EdGreer and Brandt Harrison, and with Weatherleybagging another four; kicking with the windin the final term, the ‘Hoes looked to challengethe Tonners. But taking advantage of a brilliantmidfield, Tom Mentiplay managed to convert,returning upon his promising form early in theseason. Eliciting faithful commitment from histeammates, Ben Skinner’s attack and courageinspired and provoked, while Jimmy Davis’exploits on the wing were electric, as Brightonloped home the victors, atoning for Round 1, nowpreparing for another home game, hosting thepositively fizzing Blacks.Heartbreak last week for the Snow Dogs asOakleigh somehow managed to slide onto thevictors’ podium, after a last minute free kickand goal from fifty metres out. The game hadeverything, great marks, great bumps, great goals,and even a wayward truck wheel rolling acrossthe pitch, no doubt a rare sight at football games.Despite wayward kicking in the first quarter, StBernard’s began to make amends in the dyingstages with a three goal lead: Ryan Schroder andAlex Singleton their most laudable, as Tom Cavenin his 100 th game held Lee Barrand goalless all day.That is, until the last minute, when Barrand wasawarded a free outside the arc. Floating straight,the goal silenced the frothing St Bernard’s pavilion,as the Krushers celebrated the win, relegating theSnow Dogs to eighth, and threatening ignominy.T.H. King Oval really hasn’t stacked up this season,its chequered condition hardly desirable, lastweek resembling a cow paddock.

was fate, live cattle exports the slightest worryfor pinko activists, as St Kevin’s murdered theRovers, SKOB’s slaughtering Hampton withouthairnets, anaesthetic or humane treatment.Despite fielding a young contingent, SKOB’s neverlooked threathened, Plugger Lynch and SamBishop steering the ship, while the U19 additionsof Cunningham, Campbell, Grinter, Staffordhoisted the Jolly Roger, plundering and pillagingHampton. Leading the Rovers’ goalkicking withthree, Josh Verlin tried to inspire, as did LeighFletcher, but a difference of ten points midwaythrough the second quarter was as close asHampton would come to SKOB’s, the home sideshoring up a spot high on the table.This Week: Beaumaris look to have the measureof the Snow Dogs, hosting the Bernie Boys downat Banksia; while Ivanhoetravel to Boss James, tobring home their secondwin in seven games,possibly getting the ball rolling for the back half ofthe season. Game of the round will be Uni Blackstravelling to Beach Road Oval trying to accountfor Old Brighton. I honestly have no idea, and I’llput money on a draw (If this comes off, it’ll be thegreatest betting coup since the White Sox fixedthe World Series in 1919). St Kevin’s should drubthe Eagles, the short trip to Bulleen Road a minorinconvenience. Off North Road beneath the trees,the Krushers will probably get demolished byCaulfield on Scammell’s confined playing field, theFields making drastic amends for last week’s loss.PREMIER B LAST ROUND PREMIER B RESERVEBeaumaris 5.6 12.7 15.11 19.16 (130)Marcellin 4.1 8.5 10.8 12.9 (81)GOALS Beaumaris: M.

PREMIER CDi LangtonDANCES WITH TIGERSSome strange magic occurred last weekend atGordon Barnard Oval. The Wellers, pale shadowsof their former selves sitting in tenth pozzie,managed to lure in and tame the competition’smost fierce and feared combatant from the wildwild west. Perhaps it was the delayed startingtime that threw Werribee’s preparation, or maybecomplacency had crept into the ladder top-dog’sgame, but the Tigers were fully expected toride into the low plains and pillage some cellardwellerscalp.Whatever the impetus, Old Camberwell put ona three-hour block-buster that channelled a fewancient warrior spirits: Mitch Hough (Stands WithFist), Damo McGuigan (Wind in His Hair) and RohKapoor (Ten Bears) were in the thick of it. Notto mention Robert Penn-Tonkin (Two-Dads).Playing tough, tight, in-close footy, the Wellergameplan paid off in spades particularly in thesecond and third quarters. Not only did they keepWerribee goal-less, they created the scoreboardpressure that would eventually secure the game.Simon Bennett was impenetrable in defencewhile Caine Hillier (3) made a successful returnto the forward line. Werribee had few KickingBirds, with an unprecedented bout of shankingthat sent most attempts off the reservation.Nathan Black managed a pair, while defendersAdam Morrow, Nath Addamo and Matt Deancould hold their heads high. A last quarter surgemade for a too-tense finish, but the Wellers heldon for grim death and a seven point victory. Asthe sun sank slowly in the west, the victors sanka little moonshine to celebrate their move off thebottom peg.In Sunbury, Rupo got off to a quick four goal leadover Ormond that looked ominous as it grewto 36 points by half time. Gareth Phillips got alate VFL call-up from Geelong (the James Bartelconcussion having a domino effect through theselection ranks) but brother Justin was brilliantthrough the midfield providing clean delivery toLeroy Brennan (3) while Jared Pretty (4) wascontent to get his own ball. Ormond debutant,17 year old Tom Gibney (3) was very nippy upforward, while the sure-footed Matt Hine (4)was their best leading a third quarter revivalthat brought them within 8 points, setting up atypically close Ormond-Rupo finish. Rupo held offtheir strong-finishing rivals with an 11-point win.AJAX played a pair of debutants and a veteran intheir lineup against Fitzroy, covering six forcedchanges including Geoff Measey who misseda week for shaking a goalpost in a bizarre raindance at the Runway two weeks back. The Roysthrew everything at the Jackas, sitting within 8points at three quarter time before the Jackashit the after-burners, pushing the final marginout to 38 points. Warren Steinberg was great indefence, while Royboy Tom Cheshire is runninginto excellent form.Jake Beard kicked five for Mazenod in their35-point win over Old Essendon at CentralReserve, Trent Skurrie booted four for theBombers. Essendon led comfortably at the halfbut was completely over-run in the second, theNodders outscoring them ten goals to two.TODAYSelections in BOLDMHSOB v RUPERTSWOODOLD ESSENDON v MONASH BLUESORMOND v MAZENODAJAX v OLD CAMBERWELLWERRIBEE v FITZROY6 THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2011SPORTS INJURY CASUALTY - Get back in the game


TODAYThe ladder has a new top and tail following theOld Camberwell result, but only a game and ahalf separates third from ninth. AJAX resumestop spot and takes on the giant-killers today atGary Smorgon, but it may be too big an ask forthe Two-Blues to repeat last week’s performance.Ormond is still struggling to get its best twentytwoon the park, but should get over Mazenodat Gunn Reserve, while Old Essendon are inserious freefall at the moment and will plummetfurther against Monash.

DIVISION 1Darren DawsonALL TIED UPEach week throws up at least one surprise, andlast week was no exception with the season’s firsttie adding a further layer of intrigue. An absolutecracker of a contest down at the Fearon underlinedjust how even the competition is through themiddle rungs of the table. Depending on yourpoint of view, it was either a fitting result to anexcellent match, Willy got out of jail, or NOBSPCwas robbed of a deserved win. In the wash-up, itwas probably all of the above.Kicking with the aid of the sea breeze, the Nobbersgot off to an excellent start and led by 27 points atthe first break. The visitors, through powerhouseforward Todd Patterson (7 goals) and MartinPorter who was in everything, then clung on totheir advantage for much of the day. But Willy wasnot going to relinquish its proud home recordwithout a fight, and stormed home with 6.6 inthe final term. Brothers Ben and Jack Gray wereinstrumental in the CYs’ fight-back. When the sirensounded, the scoreboard revealed a one-pointvictory to North, and their celebrations rightlybegan. However, after a quick consultation thegoal umps determined that the scores were in factlevel! At present, it is difficult to quantify who isthe bigger loser of the two points in this deadlock.Maybe it was both teams.Peninsula threw everything at Banyule and, infact, booted eight unanswered majors after halftimeto lead the Bears – who appeared a little flat- just prior to the orange-break. But Banyule haveresponded to every challenge thus far in 2011,and held the brave Pirates goal-less in the last totriumph with a 22-point win. Best for Banyule wereAdam Masters, Luke French and David Gayfer indefence, whilst the visitors’ best were Nick Fisherand Stefan Barbour in the midfield.At Como Park, Old Geelong gained what could be10 very important percentage points when theyoutclassed Bulleen-Templestowe by 13 goals. TheBullants were three points up at quarter-time,but thereafter OGs piled on 18 goals to 6 in acomprehensive win. Callum McEvoy and RyanWood both kicked 4, whilst Charlie Fairbairnreturned to form for OGs. For BT, James Gaul wastireless, and Anthony Morabito continued hisexcellent season.As was expected, Parkdale posted a big win overOld Paradians at their Gerry Green lair. It probablywould have been an even greater margin if notfor wayward kicking by the Vultures, who kickeda somewhat wasteful 7.9 with the wind in the firstterm to effectively settle the issue. Best for theParkers were Brett Hampton, Mitch Grant andDave Robbins. Despite being on the losing team,David Boundy with five goals, was unstoppablein a virtuoso performance.Was the loss to Peninsula last week the wake-upcall required by Whitefriars? Many at the clubseem to think so, with the team being muchmore focused in their 62-point defeat of OldMentonians. Notable was the frugal Friars defence,which allowed the Panthers only two goals afterhalf-time, whilst they continue to hold an evenspread of attacking options: last week alonesaw ten players chip in with goals. Best for thePanthers were Rowan Ball and Darryl Stevens,whilst for Whitefriars defender Daniel Massarotticontinued his good from, and Rowan Mattinsonwas a strong presence in the ruck.TODAYSelections in BOLDOLD GEELONG v WILLIAMSTOWNPENINSULA v OLD MENTONIANSWHITEFRIARS v BANYULEOLD PARADIANS v BULLEEN TEMPLESTOWENORTH OLD BOYS/ST PATS v PARKDALE VULTURES8 THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2011SPORTS INJURY CASUALTY - OPEN 1-7 SATURDAY


Today: All roads lead to Donvale, whereWhitefriars await the unbeaten Bears. Aspreviously mentioned, losing to the Pirates hasforced the Friars to refocus, and they are eagerlyawaiting the opportunity to test themselvesagainst the comp’s best-performed team. I amtipping that on those wide green expanses,Banyule’s run will finally come to an end:Whitefriars by 10 points. Peninsula will be far tooexperienced for Old Mentonians, and should winby five goals. Facing the Bullants in Bundoora,Old Paradians have a real chance to climb outof the relegation zone, and the Raiders shouldrecord a comfortable win.The “eight-point” clashescontinue, with Parkdaletravelling to Gillon. TheVultures still have their eyes on second place,whilst NOB-St. Patrick’s need to keep winning tostay in touch with the four. In a toss of the coin,it’s the visitors by 5 points in a close one. Anotherhuge game is down at Como where OGs hostWilly. It could be possibly be curtains for thevanquished, but I think Willy may firm up theirplace in the four with a two-goal victory.DIVISION 1 LAST ROUND DIVISION 1 RESERVEBanyule 4.4 8.9 9.9 12.14 (86)Peninsula 0.2 1.2 9.7 9.10 (64)GOALS Banyule: S.

DIVISION 2Jonno NashGOAL-DEN OPPORTUNITIESMother Nature took the umpires’ votes as R10quickly became a battle against the ragingelements. The wind shaped many of the resultslast weekend, particularly La Trobe’s inaccuratekicking and South Melbourne’s poor start.St John’s convincingly trampled ladder languishersAquinas by 88-points last weekend. For thesecond week in a row, Aquinas coach John LeGrand made seven “horses for courses” changes tobest match the second-placed St John’s. The JOCsfailed to capitalise on a much-favoured breezeduring the first quarter when they slipped a fivepointadvantage to the visitors. After a spiritedopening stanza, St John’s broke their opponentsaway despite influential efforts by Lachy Mac,Trent Harkin and Paul Flynn. A five-goal half-timeadvantage quickly spiraled into a comprehensivedefeat. Johns kicked thirteen goals to four afterthe main break with Rhys Dyker (four goals), GaryRoberts (four) and Dale Camm (three) contributingstrongly. Cory Ely was magnificent when the gamewas in the balance for the victors while TrentHarkin was the most valuable for the Bloods.Eltham swatted Emmaus St Leos’ pursuits of a topfour berth following their 16-point win at home.The mid-table clash between these finals aspiringsides saw the Turtle midfield dominant at theclearances, giving Tim Woods early opportunitiesin front of goal. The lead would change handsregularly up until the Turtles stuck their necks infront at half-time to lead by just nine-points. Theseesawed affair continued well into the third andfourth quarters. Emmaus’ Paul Baranello was theonly forward member to break through a reliableEltham backline with three goals as Phillip Careywas a very dangerous figure on the field. Tim‘Tiger’ Woods played his best game for Elthamwith a best afield performance.Regardless of a scoreless opening term, La TrobeUniversity chimed in for a merry dance aroundSt Mary’s Salesian to the tune of 48-points. LaTrobe will be using the wind as an excuse for theirwayward kicking. With 23 more scoring shots thatyour opposition, La Trobe were lenient on theiropposition, but missed on a vital percentageboosting opportunity. The partnership of StuartPatten (six goals) and Geremie Ganino’s (three)exposed Salesian’s backline despite keeping theiropponents relatively quiet in the first quarter. KarlShoenmaekers and Jos Op’T Hoog each kicked acouple in a consolidating outing for the home side.Tom Harding and Jack Atkin-Smith continuouslybroke the midfield lines and were most dangerousfor the reigning D3 premiers.Therry Penola took advantage of the whirly windsearly, kicking five unanswered goals in the first30-minutes of play. The shootout was decidedby which team could restrict the opposition tofewer goals when they had breeze. Nick Milevski(two goals) relished the unsustainable conditions,giving his forwards and co-midfielders Joel Quinn(three goals), Reynolds (two), Lyons (two), Costello(two) and Crotty (two) plenty of entries to convertto goals. Seb Mahoney built on his consistent yearand Adam Ray (three goals) performed the role ofa key forward perfectly.Glen Eira achieved the mission brief – thefour-points. It was top versus bottom and theundefeated Glen Eira was never going to slipupagainst the winless Old Westbourne. TheWild West went down by 86-points, a marginand performance that they would be somewhatpleased with giving Eira’s ability to win by greatTODAYSelections in BOLDAQUINAS v STH MELB DISTRICTSST MARY’S SALESIAN v ELTHAMOLD WESTBOURNE v LA TROBE UNIVERSITYTHERRY PENOLA v ST JOHNSEMMAUS ST LEOS v GLEN EIRA10 THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2011SPORTS INJURY CASUALTY - 316 Malvern Road, Prahran


lengths. Glenn Boyd won the shootout with TroyWhiting (four goals) with another big bag ofseven goals. Old Westbourne improved on theirsubstandard first-half efforts of just two goals toincrease their score by a factor of five. The WildWest went into damage control and effectivelyout-scored Glen Eira by 12-points. Glen Eira’s MattHarris was best on ground.TODAY: Given the home ground advantage,Aquinas will just hold off South MelbourneDistricts. The ladder will contradict this predictionbut there’s an undeniable scent that Aquinascould yet jump out of the relegation pit.The captain’s coin toss will be the only contestEmmaus St Leo’s has an even chance of beatingGlen Eira. They’re on top for a reason and anothervictory will support that.Eltham’s consolidating R10victory will snowball ontotheir bout against St Mary’sSalesian. The home ground advantage can’tcompete with momentum.The match of the round: Who wants second spot?With percentage the only factor dividing thesetwo teams, I’m going to sit on my hands and saythe Therry Penola and St John’s clash is too closeto call. Well, maybe familiar territory will be thedecider. Therry by one point.I want Old Westbourne to win a game this year,but that’s not happening this week.

DIVISION 3Rich HummerstonHUM·BLE PIE - NOUN.To eat humble pie, in common usage, is to apologiseand face humiliation for a serious error. Humble pie,or umble pie, is also a term for a variety of pastries,originally based on medieval meat tripe pies.I’m obviously referring to the former definitionhere rather then the medieval delicacy, which I’velearned contained an array of non-traditional offalsuch as heart, liver and numerous other disgustingingredients. That being said, the speak of thisquestionable recipe has done nothing to quell myunhealthy pie addiction as I find myself yearningfor a Steak and Curry Pie from the BeechworthBakery.An extraordinary moment is unfolding in frontof your very eyes, as this self-indulgent, cockywordsmith tucks his molars into his very ownHumble Pie, issuing apologies left, right andcentre, namely to Elsternwick as they triumphedover premiership contenders Monash with ascintillating display at East Caulfield Reserve.Leading from post to post, the Wicks summoneda previously unseen ability, plucking huge grabsat will and helping themselves to a memorablewin. Ashleigh Thornton proved too strong in theair, kicking six majors (from ten) while he receivedimpeccable delivery from the likes of KennethHayes and David Grace. For the Gryphs, in aninaccuracy-plagued game, performances fromJason Harrak and Tim Madden with 2 goals stoodout.Ivanhoe played part in arguably the grandestupset of the season, knocking off the secondplacedBushrangers at home. Coming off a hidinglast week, not much chance was given to theHoes, however a dominant first quarter instilledconfidence in the players as they put together 3½ quarters of determined and well drilled footy.While Yarra Valley mounted a late surge, the deficitwas too big to overcome, falling short by 20 points.Damon Wood kicked 3 goals as Eilan Healy earnedbest afield honors for the Hoes while Greg Couttsperformed admirably again for the Bushrangers.Sticking with the theme of “bouncing back afterthe previous week’s shellacking’s”, University Highthumped Power House by 70 points at PrincesPark. Recapturing their early-season form andowing to a Michelle from Rhys Kirk, the Combinefirmly stamped their intentions for finals football.While it was a dark day for the Power, a brightlight in Paul Edwards appeared as he slotted allsix majors for Power House and undoubtedly tookhome the dinner voucher.I apologise for my repetitiveness, I clearly didn’tthoroughly research the results before harping onthe whole “winning after losing the week before”theme however Albert Park joined the fold,beating the Magpies by six goals at home aftersuffering a crippling defeat at the hands of YarraValley last week. Dylan Muscat slotted four for theFalcons (say that 3 times as fast as possible) as didChristopher Germon for West Brunswick.Due to the proximity to my residence and inculmination with my laziness, I often find myselfwandering down to Victoria Park to watch theBears in action. When Kew plays away from homeand I don’t get to the game, I’m never surprised tolog onto vafa.com.au and see Adam Brazzale withat least five majors to his name. This week was nodifferent, slotting five, as the Bears knocked offtheir Brown and Gold counterparts by 42 points.Michael Cochrane was instrumental in victory forKew while Veneet Bist slotted 3 for the Hawks.

I may indulge myself as a coach for 15 seconds,may I suggest to all future opponents to stick acourageous defender in Brazzale’s hole, failure todo will result in inevitable destruction by the kidcalled “Brazza.”Prahran Assumption played host to Mt Lilydalein a fiery clash where 25-metre penalties anddownfield free kicks were almost as frequent asAdam Sleight’s 10 goals. Completely outclassedand outplayed, Mt Lilydale succumbed to thejuggernaut by 27-goals, eliminating any doubtthat the Four Blues should win the flag. LukeGiansiracusa chimed in with 5 goals for PrahranAssumption and Ryan Costin fell ill Saturday nightowing to a bout of leather poisoning.With the Humble Pie,leaving a bitter, sour anddownright disgusting aftertaste on my palate, I’vetaken an extraordinary measures to avoid takinganother bite this week. Yarra Valley will bounceback over Mt Lilydale, Prahran Assumption to beatthe Falcons, never breaking into more then a slottrot in the process. Monash will be fired up aftera lamentable loss and will beat Uni High, Hawksover the Falcons, Elsternwick to continue theirgreat form with a win over the Power while Kewwill still beat Ivanhoe despite Brazzale only kickingone after the implementation of my coachingtacics.DIVISION 3 LAST ROUND DIVISION 3 RESERVEPrahran Assumption 4.4 12.8 20.11 28.14 (182)Mt Lilydale 0.2 1.3 1.4 2.8 (20)GOALS Prahran Assumption: A.

DIVISION 4Simon FullerRICHMOND CENTRALSTAKE CLAIM FOR TOP TWO SPOTPositions 5-9 tightened up again, plenty of gunforwards kicked big bags of goals and RichmondCentral announced themselves as a genuinecontender for the double chance in finals,knocking off second placed Swinburne in a matchof the round that lived up to all expectations.Point Cook made the trek to Manningham,desperate to arrest its current losing streak.But, out at Koonung, it was Manningham whoprevailed; coming from behind to win by 19points. Scott McPherson was the hero for theCobras, kicking seven goals, which takes him to17 in the last three weeks and Ben Cookson waslively. Aaron Marsh had six for the Bulldogs andTroy Wilson continued his brilliant recent form.Of the also-rans at the halfway mark of theseason, it looked like the Tigers were the mostlikely challengers for a top four spot by the endof the year. But it was North Brunny who took thechocolates, with a comprehensive thumping. Itwas a dominant display by North, with Pat Notarobagging eleven in a sensational display.Chadstone had perhaps their best performanceof the season at Elgar Park, holding the lead atquarter time against the Demons and finishingwith 22 scoring shots. Unfortunately, their radarwas off, only registering six goals, but the signs areencouraging. Box Hill North kicked into gear in thesecond quarter, piling on 7.4 to 0.1 to set up theirwin. Club legend and three-time B&F Afrim Odzawas terrific in his 300th game for the Demons,booting three, including a vintage run where hemanaged to dodge several would-be tacklers andkick truly. Prime movers Daniel Field and FranciscoGeorge were the best for Chadstone.Eley Park hosted St Francis Xavier at WhitehorseReserve and would have been confident theycould give the top side a run for their money afterthe X-Men had looked vulnerable in recent times.The SFX response was emphatic, flexing theirmuscles in a ten goal victory. Kicking with thebreeze in the first quarter, the X-Men registeredsix goals to one from the Sharks. Leigh Andrews,Dimitri Dimakopoulos and Simon Van Dam werethe catalysts, giving the potent SFX forward lineplenty of opportunities. The Sharks fought backin the second term, reducing the margin to lessthan a goal at the main break. The third quarterbelonged to the X-Men’s spearhead, with BenSpencer putting on a clinic with an amazingseven goals in the quarter, taking the game outof Eley Park’s reach. Paul Gould and Paul Bonadiocontrolled the X-Men’s backline throughout theday. Chris Brown was great for the Sharks withthree goals and Jon Edlich kicked four.Match of the Round was out at the homeof the Razorbacks, with second spot on theladder potentially being up for grabs betweenSwinburne University and Richmond Central. Itwas the visiting Snakes who saluted in a matchthat lived up to the billing, with just five pointsseparating the teams at the final siren. Richmondwere happy to battle Swinburne to a stalemateagainst the wind in the first quarter, beforemaking their move in the second stanza, withfour goals to one for the home side, giving thema twenty point lead at halftime. Central veteranAdam Fiske had his best game for the year, BenRyan and Shaun Jones provided plenty of drivefrom half back and Seb Angus was locked in anengrossing battle with Phil Wild, who was alsodropping back in defence and making thingstough for Christian Traeger. Swinburne respondedto the challenge in the premiership quarter withfive goals to nothing giving them the lead back.Two quick goals to the Snakes in the fourth madeit a one point game and then Centrals pepperedTODAYSelections in BOLDPOINT COOK v NORTH BRUNSWICKMANNINGHAM COBRAS v ELEY PARK SHARKSSOUTH MORNINGTON v SWINBURNE UNIVERSITYRICHMOND CENTRAL v BOX HILL NORTHCHADSTONE v ST FRANCIS XAVIER14 THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2011SPORTS INJURY CASUALTY - OPEN 1-7 SATURDAY


David TolsonTHIRDSANOTHER BIGWEEKA perfect winter’s day greeted Thirds players in round10, allowing for high quality games of football to beproduced, and we were not disappointed!Stradbroke Park played host to the top of the tableclash, where Old Xavs’ superior game plan anddisciplined structures helped them beat OM’s. ForOM’s, the defection and subsequent absence of WillHarris proved costly. With James Newton unable toadequately fill his void, the Xavs’ big men dominated.De La relished the conditions by thumping Uni Blues.Tom Naughtin booted seven for the victors. Werribeeheld Ashman to only 4 goals, but couldn’t stopMutton and Baxter contributing 10 between them,as Collegians belted Werribee. Bullocking defenderWill Ponsford played his best game for the year as theCardinals trounced Old Trinity.Whitefriars produced a dominant display againstan undermanned Oakleigh. Brett Vey and MichaelStafford were the prime movers for Whitefriars. StBernard’s skipped into 4 th place with a comfortablevictory against Old Camberwell, showing grunt andclass that is sure to be a factor in finals. Brett Scottproved a handful for Old Xav defenders, as the bigman with the shaved head kicked five for Caulfield,who ran away after half time. St Kevin’s defeatedMarcellin and Uni Blacks also notched up an easyvictory, overcoming Old Brighton in a scrappy affair.Round 11 sees four straightforward matchesin Premier Thirds, as De La, Collegians, OM’sand Werribee should all easily account for theiropponents. In Premier B Thirds, Caulfield shouldprevail over a determined St Bernard’s. Camberwellwill defeat Oakleigh. St Kevin’s prove too strong forthe Friars. Marcellin should outclass Old Brighton andOld Xavs need to beat Uni Blacks in order to stay intouch with the finals race.TODAYSelections in BOLDPREMIER THIRDSOLD SCOTCH v COLLEGIANSUNIVERSITY BLUES v OLD MELBURNIANSST BEDES/MT v DE LA SALLEWERRIBEE DISTRICTS v OLD TRINITYPREMIER B THIRDSCAULFIELD GRAMM v ST BERNARDSOLD CAMBERWELL v OAKLEIGH AFCOLD XAVERIANS v UNIVERSITY BLACKSST KEVINS v WHITEFRIARSMARCELLIN v OLD BRIGHTONPREMIER THIRDS LAST ROUND PREMIER B THIRDSOld Xaverians 1.6 3.9 7.10 9.14 (68)Old Melburnians 2.1 3.2 4.2 6.2 (38)GOALS Old Xaverians: A.

Big V RecollectionsBy Simon LethleanDuring the period 1998-2002, the Big V playednine or ten times against against the Ovens &Murray League, South Australian <strong>Amateur</strong>s, and<strong>Victorian</strong> Country <strong>Football</strong> League. There weresome standout moments both on the field and offthe field that stick in our memories. They can besummarised best as followed:“It’s Showtime” – In the pre-season of 1998at Waverley Park, before a Foster’s Cup matchagainst the winner of the <strong>Victorian</strong> CountryChampionships – the very strong Ovens & MurrayLeague. In the pre-match, which was the jewel inNick Bourke’s coaching crown (he was renownedfor his emotive orations), just as he was reachinghis crescendo, he turned to Old Xavs centre halfforward Adam Jones, pointed at him and as ked“Wow, do you know what time it is?”. With thehuddle of 21 players hanging on Adam’s response,the room fell silent. Wow, knowing he wasn’t reallysupposed to respond, didn’t, and Nick chimedin on cue with “It’s Showtime!” With that, Wowand Jason Taylor burst out laughing, somewhatquelling the response from the group. It tooksome of us a few moments of the warm up to getover that episode, but we soon settled and wenton to win that match in the dying stages for theVAFA.The Hatfield Years – The years 1998- 2000 werethe golden era of Glen Hatfield, a time when wasat the very peak of his powers. Hatty was a regularRep fixture and was the VAFA’s hard man in theeyes of our opponents – a reputation Glen happilyadopted. Against Vic Country at Skilled Stadium, Iwas set to play half back on Stuart Anderson, whohad won a premiership with North Melbourne in1996. He was fit, in good form and was going tobe handful. I’m not sure if Hatty had set himselfto kill him or not, but he certainly hadn’t toldanyone about it. His intentions became prettyclear, pretty quickly. At the first bounce, I hadthe token arm across the far bigger and far moreoiled arm of Anderson and I looked over at Hattywho was scuffing his foot on the wing like a bullin Pamplona. He looked completely off tap andcompletely out of control. I wasn’t going to getin his way in the middle for the first bounce. Theball was bounced, possibly off centre by Gibbo,and Anderson rushed in to compete. I held backas a nice, safe release player for a feed backfrom Flea Mahoney or some other such tougherplayer than I. Hatty came in at 100 miles an hourand completely blind sided Anderson who wasleft motionless on the deck. The game stopped,Anderson was removed from the arena, Hatty wassmiling like a contented assassin … and the VCFLwent on to smash us by about seventy points, withme finishing at full back on Simon Goosey who didas he pleased!Humey’s Shorts – Can’t remember the game, butat half time, we were preparing to run back out.My teammate and work colleague at the time –Stephen Hume of Old Scotch – jumped in front ofme and I noticed that he had his guernsey tuckedinto not only his shorts, but also into his beigebike pants, which had ridden up half way up hisjumper number. I pointed it out to Andrew Dillonwho agreed it was best we just let Stephen headout . . . good to see we were focussed. Stephen hasnever really forgiven either of us for this incident.Rambo - Andrew Ramsden was a constant throughthese years too. How he is still playing today isbeyond me, and it’s a credit to him that he’s stillinvolved in Premier Section and kicking bags likehe did last week. Rambo’s off-field highlights reelwas full on the 1998 trip to SA. Not only did helive up to his nickname by allegedly becoming18 THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2011


a little wild at a local discotheque, but he lockedhis roommate Ben Jordan out of his room, leavingJordan scratching like a cat on the doors ofteammates to find a bed. Best he didn’t share aroom with Rambo that night, as by all reports thesprinklers might have gone off. The game itselfwas probably one of the best of that era. We wereplaying a half amateur, half professional SA teamwith a man mountain full forward whose nameescapes me whom David Landrigan and RohanPrice did their best to stop. We ended up gettingour noses in front in the dying minutes after LukeyVassalo finally speared a torpedo at the localclown who had followed him end to end callinghim Krusty the Klown. SA then won the centreclearance and the ball was marked by SA’s Downs.The siren went. Downs duly went back and dulymissed narrowly and the Big V won by a point.Denver “Porno” Artz - Denver Artz burst onto thescene in 1999. The big, solid lad from HamptonRovers was plucked from obscurity by Nick Bourkeand quickly became the “Gladiator” of the sideafter his stats sheet v SA at Elsternwick showed 30stats and 20 tackles (a feat he repeated against theCountry later that year). He was a wrecking balllike few of us had ever seen. He was everything Iwas not – hard at the ball, hard at the man andwon his own ball. He was quickly nicknamedPorno because of his unusual and porn-star likename and was selected forever more, based on histoughness and performance in Rep games thatyear.Captain-gate - The 2001 match against VCFLat Elsternwick will go down as one of the bestand most complete wins ever by a VAFA team.We smashed VCFL by about thirteen goals witha resolute backline, a dominant midfield and aforward line led by Luke Hawkins - who kicked atleast seven goals in a masterful display. The teamwas led by Rambo and I, but the photo on the wallat VAFA HQ will always show Gillon McLachlan asthe captain. Gill had been a mainstay of the sideand it was always great to play alongside him, asyou just knew that his flat concrete hands wouldensure plenty of crumbs front and centre. In thelead-up to this match it was quite clear (given hehadn’t trained or played at all) that he was notgoing to play. Gill, however, demanded he begiven time to get his back right (he had fallen offa Shetland pony that he was breaking in) so hecould take his place. He knew if he could keep theselectors on-side until after the team photo on theThursday night, that he could then withdraw andthe annals of history would still recognise him ascaptain. Sure enough, as Gill took his place on thebench to Nick Bourke’s right, his look of glee wasapparent despite his injury agony. Once the madcreepy stalker from The Bodyguard had taken theteam photo and the last flash had gone off, Gillslowly stood up, handed his jumper to Nick Bourkeand Phil Stevens, and apologetically advised thathe just didn’t think he was going to get up for thematch. What a surprise!The photo: McLachlan at left, coach Nick Bourkein the centre and on the right, Simon Lethlean,who will coach the Big V Premier C-Div 4 teamagainst the VCFL next Saturday.THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2011 19

Geoff ReilleyRETROSAMEAGAIN?12 Months Ago – 2010In C Section, Bernie Sheehy had AJAX (third)‘purring’along nicely, just waiting for an opportunity to openup, to grab a double chance position. Both CaulfieldGrammarians (top) and Beaumaris (second) wouldnot need to falter. Old Camberwell (fourth) werealready two games and lots of percentage backfrom AJAX. Maybe percentage would decide thefinal positions and AJAX did their chances no harmas they routed Old Geelong in this round. DavidFayman up front was again in top form with 8 goalsand Ari Lewski continued to lead the way withdelivery into the forward half. OG’s failed to makeany headway after a slow start and the 24.11 to 4.13was a resounding victory. Alex Thomson and TimHope-Johnstone valiant in defeat.Williamstown CYMS proved they were not out ofthe finals’ race with a terrific win over the previouslyun-defeated Werribee in Division 1. Willy startedwell and never allowed Werribee to take hold of thegame with a 10.11 to 8.8, hard fought victory. Best –McCracken, Richards, McKay, Elliott, Lee (3), Cooper(Williamstown) and Murphy, Scudamore, Norton,Pelar, Angelini, Palmington (Werribee).Jesse Rush from Rupertswood was the ClubWarehouse Rising Star for the week and was anotherof the Rupertswood junior system’s products. Jessehad been part of the VAFA U19 squad and hadcemented his place in the senior Rupertswoodteam.5 Years Ago – 2006In D2 Section Salesian Old Collegians emerged asreal premiership contenders after they disposedof Aquinas by 10 goals, 17.14 to 7.10. The loss byAquinas also set their chances of finals back butthey were not without the ability to re-ignite theirchallenge. There had been little between the twoteams for the first three quarters but Salesians’8 goals to nil in the final term told a tale. Best –Bobetic, Stevens, Hazell, Wilson, Morsello, Kelly(Salesian) and Olarenshaw, Whitehead, Lyng, Evans,J Box, Tyssen (Aquinas).St Mary’s won their first game for the season againstSwinburne, 12.10 to 12.7 in a game that seesawedthroughout the afternoon. Best – Murphy,Armstrong (4), Dwyer, Crilly, Harrison, Frail (StM) andHiggins (5), Milano (4), Sheedy, Mennen, Pearson,Walsh (Swinburne).Box Hill North stayed in equal fourth position witha huge win over North Brunswick 28.16 to 4.7. Best– Marcakis, Beaumont (5), D Penny (6), Ball, Garrett,Plunkett (BHN) and Boudolph, Savanagh, Rhook,Pizzari, Famulari, Robertson (NB).10 Years Ago – 2001In B Section, Therry, at home, were unable to holdOld Haileybury’s charge in the final term and wentdown 16.10 to 19.12. Therry’s second half wasdisappointing in the circumstances. Best – Saunders(5), Mason (3), Walden, Bourke, S Langford-Jones,Jense (OH) and Mills, S Bannister (3), C Bannister,Castaldi, M Goodwin, Elliott (Therry).The C Section ‘battle of Mentone’ saw a tight tusslewith Old Mentonians defeating St Bedes 14.3 to 12.7in a tight, entertaining battle. Best - Acreman (6), BKuramoto, Dart, Flaskis, Solley, Costello (OM) and LWintle, Owen, Beasley, L’Huillier, Tomlinson (StB).Craig Brajtberg and Andrea Thwaites were the fieldumps.Matt McKellar played his 350 th game for HamptonRovers and had started with the Rovers in 1979in the Under 19’s. After winning several Best andFairest awards, “the kid” was Club Captain for threeseasons. Matthew was an outstanding example foryounger players to follow.Adam Acreman kicked his 1000 th goal for OldMentonians and this was an history makingachievement for Mentonians. Adam paid tributeto his family , his Club and to his opponents in anemotional speech after the game.20 Years Ago – 1991Old Ivanhoe thumped La Trobe University 17.20 to5.5 in D Section and went two games clear of fourthposition. The Hoes would have liked to have kickedstraighter but the percentage boosting win wasstill of great value. Best – Taylor, Alexander, Smith,Pidoto (8), W Parry, Dyson (OI) and Mele, O’Connor,McDonald, Tighe, Liersch, Eldridge (La Trobe).Aquinas maintained their fourth position with asolid performance against Brunswick, 9.10 to 4.7.Best – Hurley, Leaver, Haggarty, P Grierson, Tarulli,Wilkinson (Aquinas) and Stevens, Carroll, Hewitt,Conboy, Barley, green (Brunswick).22 THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2011

Despiteleading goal kicker, John Butcher’s 5-goal haul forCaulfield, they did not have the multi goal scoringoptions that Ormond were able to present. It wasa high quality, skilful exhibition from both teams.Best – Morgan (4), Wood (3), Logan, Jackson, AlanGraham (4), Crumpton (Ormond) and Butcher (5),Fox, S McLaughlin, Williams, P McLaughlin, G Tootell(Caulfield Grammarians).In B Section, Old Carey’s accuracy kept them inthe game against Kew but Kew’s overall strengthenabled them to win by 8 points and stay in touchwith the top four. Best – Smith, Berry, Hayes, Nihill(6), Mullin, Stone (Kew) and Thomas, Birrell (3),Kingdom, Douglas, Chapman, Elliott (Old Carey).Kew’s Don Mullin played a great 150 th game.The amazingly durable Les Gordon, Power Housechampion and premiership player, turned out forhis 350 th Game and had not missed a match throughinjury since 1954!

Best – Reid, Graham, R Wilson, Knott (OM’s)and R Daff, G Hibbins, Levin, L Hibbins (Collegians).A brilliant half back line enabled CommonwealthBank to score a shock win over Power House in BSection 13.9 to 5.7. The result placed pressure onPower House who were now ahead of fifth placeonly on percentage. Best – Cleary, Neill, Board, BobMulligan (Comm Bank) and Brzezinski, Gordon,Bishop, Wheaton (PH).Nigel Kendall, Gary Harvey and Rex O’Brienall completed their 50th games for CaulfieldGrammarians. As well as being consistent playersfor Caulfield, all three were serving committeemembers.60 Years Ago – 1951Commonwealth Bank defeated Ormond to holdtheir top spot in A Section and the passionateComm Bank scribe declared – “and that was thebest-played, hardest-fought, most fair dinkumgame I’ve ever seen. The umpiring was perfect andjudging by the cheers from the fence, I think aboutthree thousand spectators all agreed”. No mentionof the Bankers’ best, however, Ormond agreed itwas a great, fast game and congratulated the Bank’sdefenders who repeated marked deep in the lastto ensure a win.

Darren DawsonFTLOTGFOR THELOVE OFTHE GAMEINJURED?Several injured VAFA players who have visitedthe Sports Injury Casualty facility in Prahran haveremarked on the speed and professionalism ofthe service, as well as the low cost involved.WICKED WAYSAll was looking rosy at one of the tables at theDe La lunch last Saturday. They scooped theregular Saturday club quiz, backed winnerswith incredible ease, enjoyed the pork buffet,even if it was turkey, and then went outside tosee De La kick seven in the first term. Then theclock struck twelve and the Cinderella story wassuddenly over.The VAFA has a priority deal for its players with theClinic, which utilises the full facilities of VictoriaHouse Imaging, the Avenue Hospital and Lifecareand the expertise of its medical professionals.If your trainers are sending injured players toother hospitals on Saturdays, they are probablywasting time and money.QUIZ:Last week: Q: Which player played last andsecond last VAFA games fifteen years apart, bothat Elsternwick? A: James “Junior” McDonald. Thisweek: Who were the co-captains of the Big V U19team that defeated the VCFL last year?42 THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2011


WELCOMEJess Ware and Olivia Crowe sat next to each otherin this pic taken at St Joseph’s Hawthorn in 1993 –and Jess appears to be looking over her shoulderat her neighbour. After Grade 4, they lost touch.Now Olivia Crowe has joined the VAFA staff asAdministration Assistant, replacing Jess Ware, whois heading abroad. Coincidence? We think NOT!Olivia has significant experience in the sportsadministration field and holds a Bachelor’s degreein Sports Management from Victoria University.She has worked at AFL Victoria and AssociatedCatholic Colleges.Olivia will be collecting player milestones forFTLOTG, so please email her at Olivia@vafa.com.au. I’m sure all of our clubs will make her feelwelcome.FANCY A DRIVE?Just two-and-a-half hoursnorth via the Hume andGoulburn Valley Highwaysis the beautiful town ofShepparton.Next Saturday, there arethree big Rep games atDeakin Reserve as theVAFA takes on the VCFL.• U19 at 10:15am• Premier C – Div 4 at1:10pm• Senior at 4:05pmAll games at beautifulDeakin Reserve and thesenior game will be a day/night affair with the lightscoming on as dusk hitstown.We’d love to see a massiveAmmo contingent tocheer on their teammatesto victory. Don’t let the BigV down!VALE HARRY LEIGHHarry was a true legend of North Old Boys. Heplayed in the very first North Old Boys matchin 1963, and kicked 7 goals from full forward -an outstanding effort for a 32 year old. Harrywore jumper number 30. Harry was a memberof the 1964 Reserves Premiership side, playinghalf-back flank.After retiring as a player, Harry became thefull time boundary umpire for the seniors anddid that for over a decade. When he felt thepace was getting too quick for him he “retired”to the Reserves and served for another 10years. In total, Harry boundary umpiredapproximately 450 games.Harry’s tremendous efforts on and off thefield were recognised with Life Membershipat NOBs. His wife Pat’s efforts were similarlyrecognised with her induction as a LifeMember. Harry is one of only six life membersof the club. During his service, Harry was alsohonoured by the VAFA, receiving a Certificateof Merit.Up until the early 2000s, Harry would stillattend training every Thursday night, runninglaps and then getting in the kitchen to providemeals for current day players.Harry and Pat attended every Club functionup until recently and represent the soul ofNOBS and what made the club great. Sincerestcondolences are with Harry’s wife Pat, all otherfamily and friends.THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2011 43


Darren DawsonFTLOTGMILESTONES250Luke Juice Wintle joined the St Bede’s/Mentone Tigers as a17 year old in 1997. State selection, club best & fairest awards,premiership flags, club captain (8 seasons) and recognition withlife membership by his club and peers whilst still playing showwhat a magnificent player Luke has been and remains. Thehighlight for Juice must have been leading the Tigers to its threeconsecutive premierships culminating in the 2008 A Sectionvictory. He was recognised as the best player a field by the umpiresin both the 2008 A and 2007 B Section premiership wins. Theyear Luke stepped into the Tigers senior side, he was named theBest First Year Player. Following seasons saw the Doug PatersonMemorial Award, the Michael Hecker and the William GrovesMemorial Trophy on two occasions go to Juice. A player that thoseat Brindisi Street acknowledge as the finest VAFA footballer theclub has produced. A true champion of our competition.NOBSPC’s Ol’ Silver Fox Scott Sleep has come a long way since his famous debut in theClubbies under the expert tutelage of Perrone and Holmberg in 1996. Sleepo has been one of thecornerstones of the senior side for the past 15 years, with his sublime skills and his Sharapova likegrunts as he spins out of a contest with a trade-mark blind turn. He’s a class act on and off the field(well, barring footy trips...200150Monash Gryphons’ Gareth Scoota Kent has been a stoic contributor with a fine work-rate sincebeing recruited from Geelong College back in 1998 and his passionate devotion to training andconditioning are a fine example for the youngsters at the club. A fine mark, Gareth has spent mostof his career on a wing or back flank and played an even amount of game in seniors ans reservegrade. Unfortunately, work commitments in Honduras meant he missed all of season 2010 andthe chance to play in a premiership and Scoota has been letting everyone know this since he hasreturned.Ormond’s Andrew Clinch began with the U9s in 1991 through to the U17’s in 1999. His fatherJeff was a coach during that period and was a major influence in Andrew’s progress to Seniorfootball. He was captain when the U15’s won the Premiership in 1997. Senior football started in2002 and was a member of the ’07 and ’08 Reserves Premierships. Andrew is a popular memberof Ormond’s social set.Whitefriars Old Collegians Simon Brosolo is a true clubman respected on and off the field byhis peers due to his leadership skills and his hard edge approach on the ball. Simon took out theMichael Harrison Award as the most courageous player in 2005 and from 2006 has been seniorcaptain. He has served the club with distinction typically from the midfield and defence for elevenseasons.44 THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2011


10050Ormond’s Greg Hammond began in the U10s and played through to the U15’s before his familymoved to Sydney. There he played Aussie Rules for Glebe and Balmain. Back in Melbourne heplayed for Ormond U19s in ‘96 and ’97. From ’98 to ’02 he mixed it with the Seniors and Reservesbefore heading off to London for 6 years. Greg played in 3 losing GFs over his years at Ormond.Now Treasurer of the Club, he also enjoys playing for the Clubbies.Ormond’s Jared Franklin began in the U9’s and progressed through to the U19s in 2001-02.These years included losing GF’s in the U15’s (1997) and U19’s (2002). His senior career at GunnReserve began with the Reserves 2003 and was VC in ‘05. He moved to Caulfield Grammariansfrom ’06 til ’08 to be with close mates. Jared returned to Ormond in ’09 and ironically played in thelosing Reserves GF against Caulfield in ’10.Oakleigh’s Gary Bennett was recruited from Oakleigh Dragons and debuted against MelbourneHigh U19 in round 3, 2004.Emmaus St Leo’s Nath ‘Meatball’ Baranello a bruising pocket dynamo from an early age playedin the 2005 U’19 premiership team in his first year with the Animals. Meaty has continued hisbone crunching attack on the ball in the seniors and state teams, which together with his pastaon Thursday nights make him a crowd favourite.South Mornington’s Michael ‘Heiby’ Heib is a great clubman and on the field is a smart forwardwith good skills and goal sense.St Bedes / Mentone Tigers Anthony Scafidi’s arrival at Brindisi Street coincided with the Tigersmarch to the unprecedented triple premiership run. Since debuting in 2006, Scafa has playedalongside his brother Andrew in 3 premierships, lifted many dumbbells and provided countlesshard hitting highlights at half back for the Brindisi faithful and beyond. His inspirational, headover the ball, don’t give your opponent an inch style of football, has earned him the respect ofeveryone at Tigerland and has seen him rise to the status of pin-up boy for Ken “if you could bottlethat Italian blood” Petrucco. Under the aliases of Ten Tonne Tony, Tony Pepperoni, The Hummer ,TIB and Scar fidi, Anthony’s leadership around the club and self commentary during games hasprovided many motivational pearls including; “That’s what i’m talkin bout”, “Step on their necks”,“I’ma number one”, “Send ‘em back to the library” and “Toooo good”.De La Salle Club 18 stalwart Tom Kovarik started with the club in the U19s in 2005 and in 2010took on the difficult role of playing coach of the Club 18 team. Big Tom is a fixture at full forwardwhere he has kicked plenty of goals over the years. Tom won the coaches award in 2007 and is animmensely popular player around the club.Glen Eira Saint’s Brett CooneyOakleigh’s Chris Mercuri o was recruited from Oakleigh Dragons and debuted in 2009.Monash Gryphon Kieran ‘Buddy’ Love came from a Rugby background in Ipswich, but hasdeveloped his skills markedly and is now the first choice reserves ruckman. A premiership playerlast season, Kieran is a valuable servant of the club.Richmond Central’s club captain Sean “Irish” O’Connor arrived from Diamond Creek in 2008and has continually demonstrated his fine footballing and leadership capabilities. After two fineseasons was the natural and popular appointment as skipper. As valuable in all facets of the clubas he is out on the ground, after a short injury hiatus he is back leading from the front with hisrelentless drive and enthusiasm.THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2011 45


CLUB XVIII“CROCS” NARROW ESCAPE FROM “BLACKS”:“C.Y.S MAULED BY CARDS”A valiant University Blacks ran Old Xaverians toeleven points in a very even contest. Their losshas resulted in the Blacks slipping from the topfour. Old Ivanhoe proved no match for De LaSalle, who through their fifty eight point win,have consolidated their hold on third place.Leaders, Old Melburnians were far too strong forSt Bernard’s and won by eighty eight points. In theafternoon match, Prahran/ Assumption outplayedMonash Blues and won by eighteen points thusregaining fourth placeAfter an evenly contested first half on a balmywinter’s morning, Banyule ran over UniversityHigh School / V.U.T. to win by one hundred andnineteen points. At half time the Banyule leadhad been a mere thirty seven points. The OldParadians and Old Carey game produced a hardfought contest. Again the Paradian failure toscore negated much of their endeavour aroundthe ground. Carey, who led throughout, finallytriumphed by sixty five points. North Old Boys/St Patrick’s have regained fourth place after theireighteen point win over Fitzroy, whose hold onthird place seems tenuous. Richmond Centralcontinued their fine mid season form by recordingan unexpected eleven point victory over thehighly fancied Williamstown C.Y.M.S., who nowfind themselves fifth. Ivanhoe recaptured theirearly season form to defeat Therry Penola by fortyeight points.Mazenod were largely untroubled to defeat adisappointing Old Geelong by ninety six points.Leaders, Hawthorn continued on their winningway with a ninety six point win over Ormond.A.J.A.X. consolidated their hold on a top four berthby defeating Richmond Central by fifty five points.Round 11 Previews.Norm NugentDe La Salle and Prahran / Assumption meet onDarling Park with the winner seemingly assuredof a finals berth. Selection is difficult as each iscoming off a good win in Round 10. Overall, DeLa Salle has the better performance this seasonand their fitness and “home ground” advantageshould carry them to victory. Old Xaverians shouldregain their good form with a victory over MonashBlues. Old Melburnians journey to new territorywhen they play on Chelsworth Park. The OldIvanhoe ground with its white fence and tree linedsouthern end can make scoring difficult for visitingsides. That said, Old Melburnians can be expectedto win again. University Blacks must build theirpercentage against the winless St Bernard’s, in thehope of regaining a top four position. Althoughthe Blacks should win, the question is by howmuch?In an early morning encounter at the FawknerReserve, it is difficult to forecast an Old Paradianwin over Therry Penola. Parade players win the ballaround the ground but cannot convert possessionsinto scores. Therry Penola is my selection.

Banyule travel to Old Carey. From observationsover recent weeks, I believe Old Carey will provetoo fast around the ground and that their depth oftalent will carry them to another victory. Ivanhoecan expect strong opposition from North OldBoys/ St Patrick’s at Ivanhoe Park, which presentsa challenge to all visiting sides. Ivanhoe seem tohave regained their earlier promise when judgedby last week’s results. Today, I select Ivanhoe towin again. Victory today by Richmond Central overUniversity High School / V.U.T. will be their third ina row and will place the Centrals in line for a latefinal four challenge. As University High School/V.U.T. is winless this season, I select RichmondCentral. WilliamstownC.Y.M.S. will be pleased tobe playing on the FearonReserve against Fitzroy,especially as each team has hit unexpected snagsin its final’s quest. At home, I favour WilliamstownC.Y.M.S.A.J.A.X. and Mazenod meet in a final’s rehearsal.Even though A.J.A.X. have the home advantage,Mazenod’s superior record should see them winnarrowly. Ormond should return to the winninglist by defeating Old Geelong, who again seemdestined to miss the finals. Hawthorn shouldconvincingly defeat Hampton Rovers.LAST ROUNDClub XVIII (1)De La Salle 3.6 6.12 8.13 12.17 (89)Old Ivanhoe 0.2 1.3 4.6 4.7 (31)GOALS De La Salle: T. Kovarik 3 A. Kovarik 2 M.

UNDER 19Michael CollinsNick DuxsonAs the bottom sides still shuffle for the lower positionson the ladder, the top four contenders are beginningto consolidate themselves. The champs, De La Salle,and the rampaging Old Xaverians, hold the twotop spots. Meanwhile, Beaumaris and St. Bede’s /Mentone Tigers continue to build momentum. Theundermanned Cardinals have fallen from grace afterdealing Xavs their only defeat of the season. In a blinkof an eye, the Tigers have flown by Old Scotch tofirmly grasp fourth position.De La Salle rubbed salt further into the Cardinals’wounds with a breath-taking 82-point victory. De Lashowed Old Scotch why they have dominated thiscompetition for many years, because of their evennessand depth across the board, and their willingnessto work hard from siren to siren. Worryingly for thecompetition, De La Salle is only just beginning tofield their strongest side. The introduction of biggerbodies, like Jason Terrel and Jordan Bull, makes thema more dynamic and formidable side.Beaumaris continued to find a way to win against ahungrier Old Melburnians side. Without taking creditaway from OMs, Beauy would not be pleased withtheir own wavering intensity at the contest. Eventhough Beauy continue to rack up the all importantfour points, their current form would not stack up towell against the elite of the competition (De La Salleand Old Xaverians). On a positive note for Beaumaris,Sean Brennan was rock solid down back and JamesBull provided the grunt work with his ferocious desirefor the contest.Despite the Tigers looking like they were still oncloud nine after their win against Old Scotch, theymanaged to snare an important win against Fitzroy.Similar to Beaumaris, the Tiges found a way to win.It is a sign of a good side when they claim the pointswithout playing their best footy. The Tigers are nowsix points clear of Old Scotch in fourth spot. Utility,Hayden Jeans, was impressive for the victors. Thisweek, they face De La Salle in what may shape up tobe a season defining game for the rising Tigers.Old Xaverians brushed off a competitive UniversityBlues side by 16-points. With a few prominent Xavsout, Michael Hannan led the way with anothercommanding best on-field performance. Hiscombination of agility and height makes him anintegral part of the Xavs’ line-up.Todd BeamesTOP FOURTAKING SHAPESection 2This week saw the North and South collide in the firstof nine thrilling rounds of football. Endeavouringto make the competition better for all teams,geographical fixturing has been shown the door.Old Carey hosted an undefeated CaulfieldGrammarians. Caulfield asserted themselves earlyopening up a 29 point lead at the first change. OldCarey fought their way back into the game but in theend were unable to get over the top placed teamlosing by 24 points. Caulfield played a terrific teamgame with six multiple goal scorers. Robert Shergoldcontinued his good season for Carey with anotherfour majors.Werribee made the long journey across town to playOld Haileybury looking to cement their position inthe top two. In a game of two halves, the Tigers weretoo strong in the latter part of the game to run awaywith a 32 point victory. They kicked nine goals tofour in the second half to remain undefeated. BrettArmstrong led the way for the victors, whilst for theBloods Richard Mathers battled hard all day.In a low scoring affair St Bernards were too strongfor Old Mentonians at home. The margin could havebeen much bigger than 27 points with in-accuratekicking not reflecting the true dominance. James Weirled the way with another impressive performance forthe home side, whilst for Old Mentone Daniel Bolgerkicked four.After doing it tough in premier division, Old Brightonrecorded a 10 point win over Ormond in the closestgame of the round. Trailing for most of the day anda goal in arrear at three quarter time they rallied torecord their first win of the season. Tom Hamiltonwas amongst the best for Brighton whilst for OrmondChristian Doggett kicked six majors.St Kevins had the bye.Section 3Old Camberwell got over AJAX in a low-scoring,one point thriller at Gary Smorgon Oval.

UMPIRESI, Steve McCarthy would publically wish to thank all whohelped celebrate my 600 th VAFA game last weekend. TheMazenod OCFC were sensational with their hospitalityand the presentation made by their President MattJohnson was much appreciated. Big thanks also toKevin King, Peter Fisher and Stuart Stockdale for theircontributions to the day. Special thanks to all the umpires(past and present) who travelled far and wide (especiallySchwabbie from Rupertswood) to make it back toMazenod and/or “The Nott” afterwards. To Sean Scullysenior (and the rest of the Scully crew), your contributionwill never be forgotten. Sean, you’re a legend. To runningpartners in Leah and Daggles thanks for being there andjust doing what you always do. The texts, emails and callsI received from club people was quite overwhelming aswell. As umpires I suppose we fill such a small part of thefootballing landscape, so it was refreshing to see that thejob we do is appreciated. See you at 700. Macca.Community CupA huge pat on the back for our very own Social Secretary,Jason Evans who once again engineered a tremendousCommunity Cup last Sunday. Thousands packedElsternwick Park to see the mighty Rockdogs dispose ofthe Megahertz, and a huge sum of money was raised forReclink. The VAFAUA were happy to assist with the use ofour rooms for the various bands performing on the day,and also for the after-match function. Special thanks tothose that helped out on the day, in particular Pat Galluswho goal-umpired the game, and then volunteered in thebar afterwards. Great work guys!Hooper Back In TownIt seems that Sacha Koffman is getting a little bit soft asthe years progress. After being appointed to a two-umpiregame at the Junction on Saturday, and obviously feeling abit hesitant about the amount of running required (well heWAS partnered with Cam, so his fears were well grounded),Sach had a brainwave. Knowing that former VAFAUA (andnow WAFL) umpire Michael Hooper was back in town forthe weekend, Sacha pulled some strings and got Hoopsappointed to the game. The big blonde man has lostnone of his confidence, and as an unnamed Xavs playerremarked, ‘Geez, he likes to get involved, doesn’t he?’.Frequent FlyerDingley to West Essendon to Glen Waverley. That’s furtherthan some people go for a holiday but that’s what Brock“Melway” Fisher did last Saturday when he was pickedup at 7:45 from his home in Dingley by The Coach forthe long trek out to St Bernard’s for an Under 18 matchat 9:20. The VAFA taxi service continued when Woodypicked him up after the match in his big old Ford for thejourney to Mazenod for the afternoon. And no, he wasn’theading out to Central Reserve to congratulate Macca onSteve McCarthy & Cam DavidsonTHANKS FROM MACCAhis milestone, he was there for the double up, umpiringthe Under 19s.IntrudersStrange things sometimes happen on the football field.Every now and then a canine might make an unexpectedappearance on the field, as happened briefly at Beauyon Saturday. But in what only can be described as“random”, to quote The Prez, a tyre just happened to rollacross the surface of the Snake Pit during the tense thirdquarter on Saturday. Begs the question, what else mightmysteriously surface on VAFA grounds? All contributionsgratefully received. Veteran whistleblowers woulddoubtless nominate pacifiers which annually appear latein September at EP after the announcement of GrandFinal appointments.Pre-Finals DinnerIt’s that time of the year again - the famous VAFAUAPre Finals Dinner.Details as follows: Monday 22 August - 6.30pm startMCC Members Dining RoomCost: $60. Inclusive of a 3 course dinner, and free drinksfrom 6.30-7.00pmThis is a compulsory night for all umpires. You will have$60 deducted from your pay in the August pay run.

Russell can be contacted at russell.davidson@haileybury.vic.edu.au otherwise the moneywill be deducted.For those new to the VAFAUA, this is a great night. Wecelebrate another great year of VAFA footy by presentinga number of awards to both stalwarts and youngerumpires for their achievements across the season. We alsohave a guest speaker and we are very close to announcinga high profile guest again this year. Stay tuned.A new initiative this year will be the option of reservingtables.

UNDER 18KRUSHChris Lavery and Aaron Cloke combined for 13goals in the Krushers’ krushing win over theBernies. Oakleigh never looked in doubt kicking6 goals 9 in the first qtr to a solitary behind. TheBernies didn’t know what hit them and wereblown away with the smooth skills from JakeBenoiton and the Osmani brothers. The Krusherslook the real deal and might trouble some teamsin the second half of the year, pushing for their3rd finals birth in 3 seasons. For St Bernards, theyfinished off strong in the last qtr kicking 4 goalsto 1 to put some pride back into the scoreboard.They had six single goal kickers for the day whileGoacomini, Connelly and Bye all tried hard all day.Williamstown overcame a slow start in the firstqtr to continue on there winning ways with a 64point victory over Therry. Willy blew the gameout in the second qtr with five goals to zero afterTherry had held them to two in the first qtr andUNDER 18 LAST ROUNDBen HodgesOakleigh AFC 6.9 8.11 17.16 18.18 (126)St Bernards 0.1 2.5 2.6 6.8 (44)GOALS Oakleigh AFC: C.

In the 3rdqtr, much the same as the first Therry held themup again but couldn’t put a major on and couldn’tget themselves back in the game. For Therry, DaneLyons and Daniel Mckibbin played the role alongwith Michael Jacobson who kicked two of thethree goals. For Williamstown Mitchell Lane andKnight kicked two a piece while Reuben Slaneyand Lachlan Gibbs was best on. Therry will belooking to come back rejuvenated after anotherbreak in the season.In the 3rd and final game Werribee also overcamea slow first half to run out 63 point victors. UHStook a slight lead into qtr time after some poorkicking from the Tigers. The boys from Parkvillepushed hard but could not hold on to the lead atthe half with the boys from Werribee leading by 3at the half. If it wasn’t for the poor kicking of bothsides, the scores could have been a little different.The second half proved to be the difference withWerribee piling on eleven goals to two to finishthe game off strong. Lachlan St Clair played hisbest match for the year for the U18 side alsokicking two while Benjamin Anderson tried hisbest. For the Tigers it was the usual suspects whopopped up with Matthew Turner and Dillon Taylorboth kicking two each while Nicholas Fincher wasbest on.TODAYSelections in BOLDOAKLEIGH AFC v UHS-VU/FLEMINGTONWERRIBEE AFC v ST BERNARDSRUPERTSWOOD AFC v WILLIAMSTOWN CYMSTHERRY PENOLA BYE60 THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2011SPORTS INJURY CASUALTY - OPEN 1-7 SATURDAY
