INSIDE THE EFL Good Friday and Anzac Day

Last week saw the first ever EFL game played on Good Friday with a great game of Division 1 footy between Blackburn and Balwyn. In front of a big crowd, Blackburn showed they may be a force to be reckoned with getting a great win against the reigning premier, who didn’t Phil Murton help their own cause with EFL Chief Executive Officer some wayward kicking.

Was the day a success? Depends on what measure you use but on the critical one of engaging community groups and building awareness and education on issues facing our community, then you would have to say yes. The EFL board has received previous requests for a game to be played on Good Friday and up until now had declined. No doubt something which helped the decision this time was Blackburn’s significant involvement of the Salvation Army, which the club hope the day can help educate, raise awareness of the work they do, and raise some money, not dissimilar to what footy on Anzac Day has been able to successfully, and respectfully achieve. Playing on days of significance comes with it a responsibility of doing it for the right reasons. To date, EFL clubs have been wonderful in embracing this responsibility.

I was fortunate enough to attend the game’s match day luncheon and heard from the Salvo’s Major Brandan Nottle, a previous winner of Melburnian of the Year, who talked about the work he and his team do with the Salvation Army Melbourne Project 614. The Project is a team of people, based in the City of Melbourne, who work passionately with those who live on the fringes of society.

They work with people who are homeless or at risk of homelessness, those suffering from serious mental health issues, people affected by a range of addiction issues and people who are suffering from social poverty. They have hundreds of interactions each day with people aged from 9 to 93.

Project 614 provides support by supplying meals, clothing and counselling but also work with clients to help create pathways out of their current state of

marginalisation. These pathways include training, volunteering, employment and accommodation options.

Fundraising was done on game day to help Brendan and his team continue to do their much-needed work with those less fortunate.

This week we have a number of clubs playing on Anzac Day, another hugely significant day on our calendar, with others commemorating the day on Saturday or Sunday. Over the last few years the level of engagement between EFL clubs and their local RSLs has been wonderful, and the education that goes along with understanding the significance of Anzac Day continues to be important to pass through the generations. Clubs such as Blackburn, Templestowe and Lilydale have really lead the way in educating their people and engaging in a significant way with their local RSL branch, increasing their club’s connection to the community.

With the support of clubs, the RSL, TLA Worldwide and Puma, this week many EFL clubs are wearing commemorative jumpers to help raise awareness and fundraise for the Anzac Fund. At the launch of the program at the Ringwood RSL, RSL Victorian President Dr. Rob Webster explained exactly how the funds raised during the Anzac Appeal is used to support returned soldiers and their families. For those of us who’ve never risked our lives in service of our country, it’s the least we can do. Footy has shown itself to be a great conduit in helping educate, bring awareness to, and raise money for community issues and days of significance on the calendar. When done respectfully and appropriately, there’s no reason why this can’t continue for years to come.

When at the footy this week, remember to buy an Anzac Day badge to support those in need.

See you at the games.

I

VOICE IN THE OUTER

am the faceless man standing and cheering.

I am the man whose heart bleeds for his team.

You hear me every Saturday as the boys run onto the ground. You hear me celebrate every goal. You hear me scream out in agony and cry out in ecstasy.

I have an opinion. I have passion.

I am the “Voice in the Outer”.

the face and came away with a 28-point win over last year’s grand finalist in Wantirna South.

Bayswater was competitive in their return to Division 1 but just fell short against a very impressive South Croydon, while Upper Ferntree Gully came home hard in the second half but narrowly failed to get the points against a well-drilled Mitcham outfit.

“Oh the places you’ll go! There is fun to be done!

There are points to be scored. There are games to be won.”

In Division 3, the relegated East Burwood found the going too tough against Scoresby while Ferntree Gully, making their first appearance out of Division 4 in 21 years was given a baptism of fire, on the receiving end of an 81-point wakeup call at the hands of Boronia.

Dr Seuss summed it up perfectly. A change in scenery is often as good as a holiday and a change in division in the Eastern Football League is something to be looked forward to - new teams to encounter, old rivalries to reignite and an enthusiasm around the club about a new era to be embarked upon.

Silvan was returning to Division 4 after a couple of seasons in the higher echelon and was reminded that this was going to be no walk in the park. The Cats were left licking their wounds suffering a six-goal loss to Donvale.

For some this change is on the back of the ultimate celebration of a premiership at the end of last season - reward for all the hard work put in throughout a gruelling winter. The chance the step up and take on a higher level of competitor lays ahead and the opportunity to test yourselves. For others, after a disappointing year, relegation may bring the much needed respite after a period of tough times and limited success. The new season ahead brings the hope of a renewed optimism and the chance to get that winning feeling back around the place.

Whatever brought about the change in division though, all clubs embarking on this new beginning would have done so with the hope of making a statement early in the year. For five of the six making this change in 2017 though, things didn’t quite go according to plan in Round 1 with Knox in Division 2, the only one to record a victory. The Falcons looked the humility of relegation squarely in 6

The Eastern Footballer

While the change in scenery and competition may bring an exuberance and optimism to a football club, one thing became clear after the Round 1 results were recorded.

The competition in the Eastern Football League is so competitive and there is never a guarantee of any success. The hard work needs to be done and while these teams may be newcomers to their respective divisions, no team is ever to be taken lightly.

It may take time to adjust to the new surroundings. Supporters need to remain focused on the big picture and allow for these clubs to ‘find their feet’. It’s an exciting time for all those involved and the ride is sure to be filled with some of the highest of highs, but perhaps also some dips and troughs. Stick to what you believe, remain loyal, ride the wave of enthusiasm and results will come.

I’ll see you in the outer!

ANZAC DAY FOOTBALL A PRIVILEG By: Daniel Cencic, Twitter: @DC_EFL

F

ootball on Anzac Day is an honour and a privilege.

The honour and privilege of being able to head down to your local ground on such an occasion is afforded due to the thousands of men and women who have served our nation – and risked or lost their lives - across all conflicts.

While many compare taking the football field to going to war – nothing can compare to the horrific number of causalities suffered by Australian soldiers, including 61,531 deaths in World War I and 39,652 in World War II. Put simply, there is no comparison.

The correlation, however, is that Australians are afforded the freedom to enjoy a day at the footy as a result of those who fought valiantly for our land.

Blackburn and South Croydon renew acquaintances this round in the fourth instalment of the Anzac Day clashes between the two clubs.

It is a match which has grown into a successful yearly fixture, which was first played in 2014 at Morton Park.

Such an occasion has been handled with the utmost respect of both clubs over the years, in an idea which was led by former Blackburn president James MacLeod.

“When I was president I approached the-then (EFL) CEO Rob Sharpe about an Anzac Day game,” MacLeod said.

“We wanted to play on that day, and previously, we’d made it compulsory for our players to attend the Blackburn dawn service.

“It’s a great honour to be able to represent the day to recognise the veterans and the armed serviceman who’ve gone before us,” White said.

“We want to show the respect that is due (and) it’s exciting that the club has got the opportunity to participate.

“Both our clubs really enjoy the rivalry, we’ve got a good relationship.

“South Croydon’s due a win so we’ll be going out there to even up the score so it’s a day both clubs look forward to on the calendar.

“We’ve got a lunch and a couple of speakers attending, including Warrant Officer Class 2 Peter Rogasch and someone who’s also going to be talking about the history of our club.”

South Croydon plays its first match since Round 1, while Blackburn is coming off its 25-point Good Friday victory over Balwyn.

White says the supporters will be keen to come out in force after last seeing their team play 17 days ago in the big win over Bayswater.

“We’re expecting a huge crowd so we’re going to have extra barbecues and everything going,” White said.

“We haven’t played for 17 days so I think we’re going to draw in a lot of people just wanting to see everyone play.”

Coldstream and Silvan also meet on Anzac Day, with the two clubs forging a rivalry over the years as local neighbours.

For Silvan president Chris McLagan, playing on the big stage is an occasion the Cats will relish.

“Being a standalone, this makes it even more special,” McLagan said.

“It’s important that we do mark these significant days on our calendar and do them well and show the respect that is due.”

“Playing Coldstream who are a bit of a local rival of ours, it makes it a big day for the whole Coldstream and Silvan community - it’ll be a big day for both clubs.”

South Croydon president Cathy White says a huge day awaits at Cheong Park as the Dogs host a function to honour the men and women who have served our country.

It is also the first of two marquee clashes of the clubs this season, where a Round 11 night game will take place at Silvan Recreation Reserve later in the year.

The Eastern Footballer

GE “They approached us early on in November last year about it, we were happy to go with it and help them out,” McLagan said.

“It’s their home game and the return game will be a night game at Silvan, hopefully both sides will be going okay at that stage and it should be a big crowd too, but I don’t think it’ll be as big as the Anzac Day crowd.”

In addition to the thrill of playing on Anzac Day, Coldstream and Silvan will also be playing for the Brett Hartman Shield, named after the 2001 Coldstream premiership coach and Silvan premiership player.

“Over the years, plenty of Silvan players have played at Coldstream and vice versa, there’s quite a lot of friends and families who’ve been involved at both clubs,” McLagan said.

“Even though we haven’t been in the EFL all that long, it’s been a close relationship even when we were in the Yarra Valley (league).

came down to fourth division a few years ago.

“Brett Hartman was senior coach at Coldstream when they won their last premiership and also played in two premierships at Silvan.

“There is a Brett Hartman medal for best player on the day which is chosen by Brett himself.”

While rivalries in football may simmer, and seem like warfare, today is a day of reflection and remembrance for the heroes past and present, who have served our proud nation.

‘They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old; Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.

At the going down of the sun and in the morning We will remember them.’

Lest We Forget.

“We’re actually playing for the Brett Hartman Shield which was struck when Coldstream

LEADER YOUNG GUN By: Toby Prime (Leader Newspapers) LILYDALE midfielder Ryan Harvey is stamping himself as a future leader at the Falcons.

The 20-year-old was elevated into Lilydale’s leadership group for 2017 after two years with TAC Cup club Eastern Ranges.

Lilydale coach Ben Neagle said Harvey would make a permanent move into the midfield this year after developing on the half-forward line and wing in 2016.

“He is extremely skilful, he has a big engine and can run all day,” Neagle said.

“It was fantastic after we got him back from Eastern Ranges because he had that many clubs chasing him.

“To his credit, he came back to Lilydale for not as much money and that shows the character of the guy.”

Harvey is the Round 1 Division 1 and 2 nominee for

the Eastern Football League’s Leader Community Newspapers Young Gun Award.

Harvey kicked two goals in the Falcons’ Round 1 win over Waverley Blues.

“Our whole group was pretty lightly-framed but he has been able to put on some bulk over the summer and his leadership over the past 12 months has developed,” Neagle said.

“He has been thrown more in the midfield role and can sneak forward and is dangerous when he goes forward.

“He has come on in leaps and bounds in the past 12 months.”

Harvey is joined by Division 3 and 4 nominee Andrew Padbury from Whitehorse Pioneers.

Padbury kicked four goals in Whitehorse’s eightpoint win over Glen Waverley Hawks.

EAGLES’ NEW ERA By: Daniel Cencic, Twitter: @DC_EFL

I

n his maiden game as senior coach, Harmit Singh kicked off the Eagles’ new era in emphatic fashion in Round 1, defeating Balwyn by 34 points.

premiership drought – seven years – having last tasted the ultimate in 2009.

A well-known football aficionado working in a development role at Collingwood, the former Northcote Park coach has enjoyed the challenge of stepping into the driver’s seat of the League’s most successful club.

To Vermont, seven years is an eternity.

“I’ve really enjoyed the opportunity so far at Vermont, to come across to a big and professional club,” Singh said.

“After doing 45 training sessions it’s great to start with a win Round 1 against the benchmark team in the competition and hopefully we can keep building from that for the rest of the season.”

Modern rivalries in the Eastern Football League simply don’t come much bigger than Balwyn and Vermont.

Its longest drought is 10 seasons, from 19721981.

A dream run off the back of its last drought netted a period of sustained success through the 1980s, ‘90s and 2000s with flags in 1982, 1983, 1986, 1988, 1989, 1990, 1991, 1993, 1994, 1995, 1997, 1998, 2001, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2009.

In a club which has historically demanded only the best in on-field results, Singh insists stepping into the coaching role for Vermont hasn’t come with the added pressure of expectation.

“I’m probably my own harshest critic,” he said.

“The club’s a successful one and it’s a performance-based industry.

The powerhouse Division 1 duo have forged an unforgettable rivalry in recent Septembers.

“We like all other clubs will be striving to win the premiership and it has been a little bit of time since we tasted success.

The two foes are no strangers to meeting when the stakes are at their highest, having faced off in the 2012 and 2016 Division 1 Choose Tap grand finals, with Balwyn prevailing on each occasion.

“Hopefully the steps that we’ve put in place will hold us in good stead and continue the good work that (former coach) Steve Cochrane did with the group.”

Singh was watching with a keen eye last September as coach-in-waiting, to become indoctrinated into the rivalry as the pair fought out an epic grand final.

“They’re both big clubs and I was there grand final day and watched the game.

“For us, it’s a new season and every team we treat each team exactly the same. “(Last week) was a big day for Balwyn with their flag being unfurled at home, but I think that’s the great thing about this competition – on any given day if you don’t bring your best and step up, you’ll get beaten.”

Vermont is currently in its second-longest 12

The Eastern Footballer

From the senior coach, right down to the bootstudder, the Eagles’ culture expects nothing but the best.

“From my side of things, we expect a level of effort from all players and I demand the same from myself and our coaching team as a group have been really good in that space as well,” Singh said.

“We’ve made a few minor changes to the game-plan and I think hopefully it will translate to success which we’re chasing.”

Captain Tim Johnson has impressed the new coach early, along with young gun Tom Schneider who continues to grow from strength to strength.

“(Tim’s) of the best people I’ve met in football – he’s got outstanding values as a person and it’s no surprise he was voted in as captain this year,” Singh said.

“He’s been really good and helped drive really strong standards within the group – it’s been pleasing to have a leader like him.”

“Tom’s a quality player.”

“Quite young and very driven, he was away for a lot of the pre-season but has come back and word hard to get himself up and running and playing a role for us.”

Former coach Steve Cochrane has built the foundations of a successful team, with the numbers on game-day stacking up well against opposition sides.

“There were a lot of great things that were happening at the club last year – offensively, kicking on average over 100 points a game and defensively were number one in the competition,” Singh said.

www.efl.org.au

“I’ve tried to tidy up our ball movement a bit, so when we have it, we’re able to create a little bit more going forward and when we don’t have it, we’ve worked really hard at our team defence.

“I think it held up pretty strongly a couple of weeks ago against Balwyn and our contested ball when it’s in the neutral was a big focus and ensuring we don’t have as many players all hunt the footy so we’ve got good balance,” he said.

“They’re the three key areas we look to tidy up on and we’ve got individual plans and goals that we want our players to tick off on.”

For the loyal Eagles fanbase and the most successful club in the Eastern Football League, Singh believes it may hold the key to delivering the cup for the first time since 2009.

“I think that will hold us in good stead to hopefully get a top-three spot again.”

DIVISION 1 NORWOOD: Round 1 of the season saw our boys go down in a high quality match at Blackburn. With a strong breeze blowing, Blackburn opened up a seven goal advantage at quarter time, only for us to reduce it to eight points at half time, with five early goals from spearhead Leigh Williams the highlight.

With their second use of the breeze, Blackburn opened up a 25-point advantage at three quarter time, not an insurmountable one, but in the last quarter the thunderstorms hit and the win changed direction nearly 180 degrees, making our task nigh on impossible. Full credit to Blackburn however, whose six goals in the opening 10 minutes of the match were decisive. We introduced Trent Shinners, Joel Narburgs and Ben Trend to the senior side, while welcoming back into the Norwood fold Dave Johnson, Rhett Jordon, Lochie Dickson and Daniel Hurley. All will be better for the run as we look forward to Round 2. The development squad led at half time before going down to a perennially strong Blackburn outfit while the under-19s got off to a great start with a win.

NOBLE PARK: This weekend we pause to remember in our hearts all those who fought for our country, and who died for our country, so we have that freedom today to stand here and watch this game we love. “They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old; Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn. At the going down of the sun and in the morning, we will remember them.” Lest We Forget.

Congratulations to all players who played their first game with the Bulls in Round 1. Well done to Hayden on coaching his first game at the Bullring.

The ultimate goal is to play seniors and last Saturday we had five debutants - John Walker, Mouneer Ghanem, Hudson Thomas, Luke Nelson and Jon Bunge. Congratulations guys how great it is to see four premiership players from the under-19s last year in the seniors.

Memberships are selling through the roof – thank-you to those who have bought a Bulls membership so far - remember with your membership you get to attend a Blue n Gold Home Luncheon…

DIVISION 1 VERMONT: What a day it was at Balwyn.

Incredible weather and a sensational result in the senior game after nine years of trying. Well done to the coach and players, it was a fabulous effort. Best players named were Robbie McComb, Adam Parker, Steven Tahana, Daniel Reid, Jake Best and Rory Lehmann. But six more could easily be added. The reserves had a very one sided game against an undermanned but persistent Balwyn. We had no less than 14 players new to the senior ranks this season.

The better players were Luke McComb, Matt McKenzie, Max Healey, Joel Cendamo, RorySheridan-Ferrie and Brandon Droessler. The under-19s boys also had a big win, again a team with many new faces. Best Players were Fergus Ward, Pat Wallis, Jack O’Keefe, Damian Vassilou, Matt Brown and Matt O’Dwyer The Glen Waverley Eagles had their first game at Central Oval and had a terrific win, although kicking for goal could be improved. The best players were Ryan Fitzpatrick, Josh Keyte, Zac Trotter, Jack Whitbourn, Nick Pearson and James White.

MONTROSE: Today we journey to Vermont for our ANZAC weekend matches. Mixed results last week. The under-19s started well and were challenged by a gallant Doncaster; but we held firm to run out winners by 12-points. Best – Whitchell, Seymour, Harvey and Thompson. The development squad also began well, and were in control for most of the game as they went on to record a 72-point win. Best – Weatherley, Batten-Leitch, Roberts and Fielding. In the main game, we let Doncaster get away early in the first, until we steadied with some more direct football. We held sway in the second with both teams playing hard footy to go in at the main break two goals down. We rallied and lifted the tempo in the third and should have been in front if not for inaccurate kicking. As it was, scores were level at the last break. In the last quarter, we didn’t continue with our hard work and the opposition kicked away to leave us, going down by 32 points. Best – Haining, Garthwaite, Bell and Pattison. Let’s make sure all sides are ready for Vermont today. To all our sponsors, we thank you once again for your continued support. We appreciate your efforts in getting behind our club. On May 6th, we have our everpopular sponsors lunch – see Tony Eastwood to confirm your attendance. Go DEMONS.

DIVISION 1 DONCASTER: One from three at Montrose last week. Colts got off to a slow start being five goals to nil down at quarter time, but slowly got back in to the match, a good effort as this was the second time the boys had been together, eventually going down by two goals. Reserves got the bare numbers on deck with many players away or not ready for Round 1, but no excuses as we were soundly beaten by Montrose.

Seniors recorded the solitary win for the club.

In a fairly even game for the first three quarters we were able to get away in the last to record a five goal win – and all before the weather unleashed havoc!! Thanks to Montrose for the great hospitality. Today we host old foes North Ringwood and welcome all their club into the rooms during and after the game. Please note we have another home game next week against Norwood. All welcome to stay back at the rooms tonight to help celebrate our first home game of the year. Coterie memberships are still available.

Q3

NORTH RINGWOOD: After being blessed with fantastic weather for so long we were looking forward to a nice sunny day for our Round 1 Sunday clash with local rivals East Ringwood, but wouldn’t you know it, we got the exact opposite. The rain started on Saturday and barely stopped at any stage on Sunday making conditions pretty difficult for all the players. Under-19s coach Ryan Cullen pretty well summed it up by saying it appeared that Cyclone Debbie had made its way down to Quambee.

On the bright side, our under-19s put all their hard work at training into action and started us off on a winning note, although the kicking was a little inaccurate. None the less they came out with a score-line of 4.14 to 3.8. Great effort by the whole team.

Reserves had a close encounter in another lowscoring game, leading early but trailing by seven points at three quarter time. Although the lead looked very difficult to peg back, the guys didn’t want to let the opportunity of a win slip by so in true Saints fashion they battled against the tide and registered a gutsy win - 4.11 to 4.9.

The seniors started really well registering two goals in the first quarter, but from there the game was a real slog as you would expect in horrid conditions.

East hit the lead early in the last quarter, and after we had kicked seven behinds in a row (and numerous out-on-the-full) the task was looking rather grim until “King” Curtis Dunne marked 45 metres out with about two minutes to go. With a very wet and heavy ball everyone wondered whether he would make the distance. ‘Dunna’ showed his true ability and put it straight through the middle - post high. Saints 3.7 to Roos 2.8.

Three great wins to start the season - priceless.

Congratulations to coaches Peter, Paul and Ryan.

Go Saints!!!!

DIVISION 1 ROWVILLE: Well, Round 1 is complete for another season and wasn’t it a crazy day?!

Our under-19s had a big test ahead of them, facing the reigning premiers Noble Park at their home ground.

After a fairly disappointing first half, our boys regained focus and lifted the intensity in the second half. We accumulated more scoring shots in the second half than Noble Park, however we were very inaccurate in front of goal, which proved costly at the end of the game.

The first quarter saw our development side kick into a strong breeze and the side defended admirably and we kept Noble park to four scoring shots for the quarter. The second quarter saw us kick with the breeze and begin to assert our dominance around the stoppages.

We went in with a two-point lead at half time.

The fourth quarter was fierce in the early minutes with both teams not giving an inch.

However, we managed to get over line and get the win for Round 1.

Our senior side went with a new look for Round 1 and we started against the strong wind and did well to be only two goals down. Noble held its lead for most of the game and we had plenty of opportunities but unfortunately didn’t capitalise and we were beaten by a better team on the day! We look forward to Round 2 against Balwyn and we hope everyone had a great Easter break.

DIVISION 1 BALWYN: Well it certainly hasn’t been the start to the season that we had planned or expected to say the least! But, despite the terrible result on the scoreboard last week (at one stage kicking an unbelievable 17 behinds in a row) we actually were ahead in all our other measures – tackles, inside 50s, clearances and scoring shots. It’s only early season and a long way to go – expect to see us doing everything today with the same great endeavour and this time hopefully hitting the target between the big sticks as well! U19s: We are still seeking some players for our under-19s squad, so if you, or someone you know of, is looking for somewhere to play in 2017, please contact coach Chris Day on 0418 606 645.

DIVISION 1 EAST RINGWOOD: A big welcome to Bayswater as they return to Division 1 football and to East Ringwood for our Anzac Round clash. Both clubs have supported this concept and we will conduct a brief remembrance ceremony before the senior game today.

Welcome to David Jamison, Ringwood RSL president and we thank you for your support.

We apologise for the lack of facilities for today but hope you will support our canteen/bar/ barbecue etc. and join us upstairs in the Sports Club after the game.

Our Round 1 results were disappointing from the perspective of wins but the endeavour could not be faulted as the under-19s played a solid second half while the development squad went down by a kick. The seniors appeared to have the game won in atrocious conditions only to be pipped at the post by a determined North Ringwood outfit. We need to even up the ledger today!

Congratulations to Brad Jones who plays his 100th EFL game today after a two-year absence through injury.

Club memberships will be available along with order forms for club merchandise so please support your team in the most tangible way by signing on! Become a True Roo today!

BAYSWATER: We trust all had a great lunch last game at the presidents function. Thanks heaps to the DH Catering group for another great meal and to all our loyal sponsors for attending Hosting South Croydon last week in front of a huge crowd. It did not produce the results we were hoping for in our first foray into Division 1 in 14 years. A severely undermanned reserves side lead all day to go down in the last seconds in controversial circumstances by four points.

Bad kicking is bad football and the final score line of 7.11 to 9.3 tells part of the tale. A fantastic effort by the four under-17s boys that stepped up to play and they all acquitted themselves extremely well with young Ben White featuring in the best players. Gordo & Jimmy Pritch bagged 2 each with best on the day Cunners, Millar, B. White and Jammo. In the seniors, a tight battle in the first quarter saw scores locked at 2.1 apiece but we failed to use the strong breeze effectively. The dogs showed the way in the second with 6 unanswered goals before we fought back with four of our own to trail by 17 points at the main break.

We kicked the next 2 to narrow the gap but Sth. steadied to have a 15 point margin going into the last.

We failed to match the intensity of the higher division, something we are going to have to adjust to, and went down in the end by 33 points. Big Jack got 3 with 2 each to Scooter & Choco. Good performers on the day were Moorey, Clucker, Schroedes and Scooter. Today at East Ringwood, we need to re-set and take away the four points. Go Baysie.

Q3

BLACKBURN: It was a red and black Good Friday as we welcomed Balwyn to the pit for our Round 3 match and secured three (3) wonderful wins in front of a big crowd.

Thanks to the EFL and our opposition for sharing in a great showcase promotion of local footy, whilst being respectful of the spiritual connection of Easter over the long weekend. The club was pleased to partner with the Salvation Army and raise much needed funds for those in need.

On the field, Balwyn was hungry to revenge their Round 1 loss to Vermont and the Burners were left in no doubt that we needed to play four quarters to be competitive.

Balwyn kicked the first two goals of the game but didn’t get their next until the fourth quarter due to massive pressure from the Burners on ball brigade in Fagan, Clay and Soccio and great pressure from the small forwards.

Balwyn suffered from some uncharacteristic, inaccurate goal kicking in what was a gripping contest all day.

The Burners were strong all day and went on to win by 25 points with eight separate goalkickers. Others to impress were Daniher, McIntyre and Daniel Campisano, strong down back all day. It was our first win against Balwyn in six years and was celebrated with gusto by the Burners faithful.

A quality line up in the reserves saw us run out comfortable 95-point winners against an undermanned outfit. Kyle Dove and Mitch D. kicked three goals each and Read, Liam Patterson, Josh Meyers and Lochie Adey were solid contributors for the match.

The under-19s recorded their first win for the season with a 104-point win having 10 different goalkickers including five and four goals respectively to the Tommies in Bridges and Walton. Matt Sandells, Raf P and Tommy Maher were solid all day in a very good team performance on the day.

Today we remember the many men and women who have in times past and today, continue to represent our country with honour in peace time and in overseas conflict.

We share in honour and commemoration the spirit of Anzac Day with the South Croydon Football Club – Lest We Forget

DIVISION 2 WAVERLEY BLUES: A warm welcome extended to the Mulgrave players, supporters and committee. Welcome as well to the Blues fans and their mates that have come along for our traditional first home game ‘Mates Day’. A great opportunity for players and supporters to come down and enjoy themselves whilst shouting support for their on-field heroes. Dedicated fans of the committee are welcome to show their support by buying a club membership or, if not that, you could shout us a beer or a lemon squash. For all your club membership, apparel and drinks needs head over to the barbecue area and pick up a burger while you’re at it.

Before Easter our seniors got the season off to a slow start out at Lilydale, reaching the lead early in the last quarter only to fall away and eventually go down by 16 points. Edwards and Sharpe led the way. Today will be Dylan Cole’s 50th game so get around this wonderful young man. The reserves were in the game and were coming home with the breeze but were outplayed in the last term. In the best were Macaulay, McLeod, Baldock and Ben Smith returning with three goals. Congratulations to Luke Sims and Justin Mann who played their 100th games for the club.

Two more perfectly groomed gentlemen you’ll not meet. The under-19s did give us something to cheer about with a big eight goal win over the reigning premiers. There will be a flag unfurling of our own this morning to celebrate the under-17s flag won by many of the current under-19s crop.

Mulgrave’s under-19s also had a good win last week so today’s match should be a cracker.

Being the weekend before Anzac Day, the Waverley RSL will help us commemorate the occasion with special jumpers to be worn by both sides and a small ceremony to take place before the match today. The jumpers will be available for sale with proceeds going to the RSL. There are a limited number so get in touch with Dwayne if you want a piece of history.

Exciting times ahead with the women’s team set to play their debut match next weekend. Keep your eyes on the Waverley Blues website and Facebook page for details as they come to hand.

For all social news, including the Cocktail Night on May 6th, you can find it online too. It really is very informative and pleasing to the eye.

ROUND 2: SATURDAY 22 APRIL 2017

MULGRAVE: This week we travel up the road to take on our neighbours, Waverley Blues, in the ANZAC commemoration clash.

MULGRAVE

In Round 1, the under-19s kicked off the year with a strong win against Ferntree Gully. Best players were Evan Sarkissian (who slotted home eight goals at full forward), Josh Cardin and Zac Bonney. The boys controlled the game for most of the day and finished the game strongly to win by 67 points.

The reserves kicked the first goal of the game, but were then headed by Mooroolbark, chasing a big lead at three quarter time we put in a strong last quarter, but were still unable to make up the deficit.

Best were Matt Gould, Lachie Raymer and Nick Henley. The seniors kicked with a strong wind in the first quarter and controlled the game, but failed to capitalise only being 28 points up at quarter time.

Mooroolbark then played two strong quarters to lead by thirty one points at three quarter time, a wind switch and the desire to win in the last quarter saw us just fail to make up the deficit and go down by four points. Best players were Rhett Wilsmore, Cohen Howell and Tom McGowan.

DIVISION 2 DONCASTER EAST: What a way to start off the 2017 season! Croydon at Croydon has not been a happy hunting ground for us – in the past, but we well and truly busted the voodoo in the first game of 2017! A strong preseason training regime and the addition of some ‘talls’ has enhanced the team balance. It was one of those games where we didn’t seem to have any ‘passengers’ – everyone played their role - and just as well, because (even though the scoreboard didn’t reflect our effort) there are a few ressies who will be knocking on Steve Buckle’s door on Thursday night. Our new under-19s will get better as the season progresses – it was an extremely tough ask to come up against a ‘juggernaut’ first up. Every one of our players is straight out of junior footy – they’re a tight bunch and will only improve with a few games under their belts. And it was great to see so many of the under-19s families and friends helping out on the day – thanks to new team manager, Darren Bourke! Today, we welcome Upper Ferntree Gully back to Zerbes and we can’t afford to take it easy against the 2016 Divvy 3 premiers. On the social front – our first function is a Trivia Night on Saturday April 29 (after the home game against Mulgrave) – organised by (and a big thank-you to) new helpers Lyndal & Melissa. Tickets $25 (see the DEFC Facebook page for details). And Peter (Mona) Monahan is organising a Past Players & Officials Lunch (Mitcham game May 20) – contact Mona (0412 229586) for details. “Our Supporters roar every time that we score . . . . we’re the Boys from Donny East” - Colonel

UPPER FERNTREE GULLY: First game didn’t go to plan against Mitcham with the seniors suffering their first loss since 2015 but we get another chance to have a win today taking on Doncaster East. Great to see Tim Smith make his AFL debut for Melbourne before Easter.

Congratulations to Rory Bailey on his efforts for Eastern Ranges in the under-16 carnival during the holidays and also to Byron McDonald in making the EFL under-14 squad. The juniors resume their season tomorrow after a couple of weeks off while the netballers also started last night after playing grading games before Easter. The vets’ season starts tomorrow but our guys have a bye first up before taking on Bayswater in a fortnight. We should see our first women’s team in action also in the next week or so when they start, making it a busy year for the club, so if you can help out it would be much appreciated. The King Club is again available for support this season so see Neil Thompson if interested or contact Andy Lee to get your social membership. The VIP area is also available for home games by contacting the club. Dates to put in your diary include the Toyota Good for Footy Night on May 4th while the annual Ladies Night has been put back to later in the year. Thanks to all our sponsors who are back on board this year, please use them and mention you are from the club.

Good luck today Upper……Go the red and blue

DIVISION 2 MOOROOLBARK: The 2017 season is now underway with Round 1 completed. The Mustangs travelled to Mulgrave last week in what started out as summer-like conditions. The reserves hit the field with a good blend of youth and experience and, although conceding the first goal of the game, went on to kick the next 12. We relaxed a bit in the final term but still went on to record a strong 82-point win. Old stagers, Fordy and Dimma, had a field day up forward finishing with six goals each while the youngest player in the team, Lachie McGee was voted best on ground. Others in the best were Aussie Sutherland, Blake Daniell and Peter Wall. By the time the seniors ran out there was a four-goal wind favoring one end, which Mulgrave kicked with in the first term, leading the Mustangs to a four-goal deficit at quarter time. We were then able to dominate the second and third quarters with a five-goal lead at the last break.

Melbourne’s weather did what it does best and changed completely, including the wind direction, so that we ended up kicking against the strengthening wind in the final term. Our lead was being whittled away but thankfully we hung on by four points at the final siren. Jordy Roth was good up forward with four goals and James McManus earned best on ground honours.

Others to show out were Slattery, S. McManus, Egan, Noonan and Jordan. Thanks to everyone who dug deep at the player auction. We took a record amount. Today we host neighbours, Lilydale, in the ANZAC clash in what should be a great contest. GO MUSTANGS!!!

LILYDALE: We had a pretty good start to the 2017 season with wins over Waverley Blues in the reserves and seniors. This week sees us venture to near neighbours, Moorooolbark, for later scheduled matches. Our under-19s are playing at Ferntree Gully at the normal time.

Today we salute one of our loyal servants, Andy Preston, who finally notches up his 100th game for the ‘Dales. Andy started here in 2009 and is a 2011 premiership player, two-time Bowman medallist and the 2016 Anzac Day medallist. In 2016 he was also captain of the club. Andy is a very courageous player and we applaud him for reaching this milestone. Another loyal servant, Matt Wierzbicki plays his 50th senior game today. Matt started in 2008 in the under-14s and played 35 junior games. He was a member of the under-19s premiership team in 2011 and made his senior debut in 2013. Congratulations to both players and we hope we can top the day of with a win.

Memberships are still available. Falcon membership is $100 and Blue and Gold is $300.

For all details, go to our website www.lilydalefc. com.au Our third Community Sports Dinner is on Friday May 12th.

DIVISION 2

KNOX: No better way to kick off 2017 than a 400-metre drive down to Walker Reserve to take on the old rival Wantirna South. After conceding the first goal of the day, the under-19s replied with the next four and controlled the rest of the match running away with a 32-point win. In the reserves game, we saw Stuart Wynd (new KFC reserves coach) take on his old mate Luke Slater (former KFC reserves coach). It was a tight first half but the depth of our squad shone through in the second half as we kicked away to a 64-point win. It was great to see three McGown brothers play together for the first time, highlighting our strong family culture.

A five goal to one opening quarter in the seniors was just what Dave Madigan had hoped for as we started our Division 2 season, but the Devils hit back early in the second with the first three goals to heat up the local derby. A late goal to new recruit Jayden Duman and the first two goals of the third quarter helped us gain control of the game, eventually coming away with a 28-point win. Thanks to our major sponsor, our first trophy of the year - the Knox Club Cup.

DIVISION 2 MITCHAM: LAST WEEK: Round 1 done and dusted and it was great to come away from Kings Park with two wins. The day started off more suited to cricket and finished off more suited to…. well really we don’t know what it was more suited to as Melbourne showed us its notorious four seasons in a day weather with a wild thunderstorm just as the senior game finished. The senior boys won a tough low scoring affair with Ruddy leading the way down back and 18-year-old James McCubbin on debut, very good across half forward/wing. Not sure we have ever played such a young reserves side but wasn’t it great to see so many of our young talent staking a claim for senior selection with Joseph, Rambaldo, McKeown and a very youthful Johnston leading the way. BIG thank-you to the Upper Gully folk for their hospitality, good luck for the season and we look forward to seeing you later in the season at the MCG of the east for our return bout.

TODAY we welcome the Wantirna South Football Club to the MCG of the east together with the Ringwood RSL, members of the Eastern Football League executive, federal and state members of parliament as we promote increased observance of the commemoration of ANZAC Day. The day kicks off with our SOLD OUT presidents ANZAC lunch with one of the biggest names in the AFL - Kevin Sheedy.

We hope everyone has a great day and enjoys the hospitality of the Mitcham Football Club.

WELL DONE to our junior club on the announcement last week that we have finally secured a second ground - Koonung Reserve, Springfield Road, Blackburn North. The significant growth in the number of our teams from six junior teams in 2014 compared to 16 teams in 2017 has been tremendous for our club and testament to the junior program we now have in place at the Mitcham Football Club.

SOCIAL: In 2017 The Mitcham Football Club will again be aiming to run quality events so make sure you save the dates for our comedy night on June 3rd and Gala Ball on the of 1ST July.

DON’T FORGET to keep up to date with all the news, views and reviews via the official Mitcham Football Club site @www.mitchamfc.sportingpulse. net Good luck to all teams today and enjoy your footy. #strongandbold

EASTERN RANGES By: Toby Prime EASTERN Ranges have proven themselves to be a team to beat in the early stages of the 2017 season in both the boys’ and girls’ competition.

Chargers in a performance coach Darren Bewick described as one of the worst in his eight years at the club.

It is the first time the Ranges have fielded a girls’ team, with the TAC Cup Girls competition in its inaugural season.

The Ranges conceded five of the first six goals, but closed the margin to six points early in the last quarter before the Chargers rose again when the game was up for grabs.

The girls’ competition mirrors that of the boys and provides a pathway for talented young females to develop their talents to reach the elite level.

The girls’ opened their season with a 64-point win over Bendigo Pioneers, keeping the opposition scoreless for the contest.

In an entertaining affair against the highlyrated Calder Cannons, which includes talented basketballers Chloe Molloy and Monique Conti, the Ranges just fell short by 11 points.

In Round 3, Eastern Ranges allowed Northern Knights to kick four goals in just five minutes before quarter-time to trail by seven points at the main break.

The Ranges fluttered away several opportunities in the final term to pinch a win, converting just two of its seven scoring shots to suffer a 11.9 (75) to 9.6 (60) loss.

Many AFLW recruiters were suitably impressed by the skill level of the contest.

TAC CUP LADDER 2017

The girls then recorded their second win of the season with a 27-point win over Oakleigh Chargers, with Olivia Flanagan, Jess Provan, Jorja Borg, Georgia McPherson and Laura McClelland among the best players, before a loss at the hands of Northern Knights.

The Eastern Footballer

RIVALS CLASH FOR PARKER FAMILY CUP Rivalries in the Eastern Football League simply don’t get any more parochial than the local derby between Heathmont and Ringwood.

The two clubs, situated a stone’s throw from one-another, have a long, distinguished history spanning decades.

This weekend, the Jets and the Redbacks write another chapter as the neighbouring clubs battle for the Parker Family Cup. One man at the centre of the rivalry is Heathmont president Rob Parker, whose family has a proud history at HE Parker Reserve and Jubilee Park.

By: Daniel Cencic, Twitter: @DC_EFL It would form the basis of a rivalry that has stood the test of time.

“I think the rivalry is very strong,” Parker said.

“If you go back in history, Ringwood was always a first division club, and Heathmont weren’t.

“Heathmont were always looked at as the poor cousin (and) the local blokes all know each other, it’s a local derby.

“It’s something that everyone gets really fired up for and looks forward to the contest. “

“The set-up of the Parker Family Cup is to acknowledge the work the Parkers had done between the two clubs,” Parker said.

Parker says regardless of how both clubs are travelling, all players set themselves for the occasion, with the community and supporters just as involved.

“My dad was secretary and president at Ringwood and my three brothers (and I), we all played footy at Ringwood.

“All the players would have it all pencilled in and I reckon there’s a fair bit of banter between blokes who know each other that play for each side that try to stir things up a little bit,” he said.

“Mum was also involved, (Dad) went on to be CEO of the EFL as well.

“I left Ringwood and went to Heathmont (where) I’ve been involved for 35 years or so.”

Such is the tireless work of the Parker family across both clubs, that the powers of the day at the Jets and Redbacks mutually agreed that it should be significantly recognised each time the neighbours meet.

“When we started playing Ringwood again, both clubs said why don’t we start up the Parker Family Cup to acknowledge the Parker family,” Parker said.

“That’s how it all started and it still continues on.

“We’ve shared the cup between the two clubs over the period but Heathmont holds it at the moment and we want to hold it again on the weekend.”

According to the Heathmont president, the rivalry stems from the-then Croydon-Ferntree Gully Football League, where the two adversaries competed in Division 1 together from 1959-1961.

The bouts continued when the Eastern Districts Football League was formed, where the Jets and Redbacks would face-off for an additional four seasons from 1962-1965 in the top flight.

Subsequently, Heathmont was relegated while Ringwood stayed put. www.efl.org.au

“Everyone around the area knows the game, so we get a huge crowd at which ever ground it’s played at.

“I think a lot of people who’ve been around the clubs for a long time always pencil the game in and make sure they attend to support their club on the day.”

For Rob Parker, there will always be a connection to Ringwood where he and his brothers forged their football careers and the family left an undeniable legacy.

But the long-time president will be firmly in the Heathmont corner this weekend as previous ties are cast aside in the battle for the Parker Family Cup. “You play your footy at a club and you’ve always got your connection there,” Parker said.

“My son (Nathan) plays at Heathmont now and I’ve been president 20-odd years.

“I’m a Heathmont person now but you still have that connection to the club you played footy for and the blokes you played with.

“We’ve got a really good relationship with Ringwood, our committee and their committee, we all get on really well together.

“At the end of the day we certainly want to be the side that wins and hold the cup - you smile a bit brighter when you win it.”

DIVISION 3 RINGWOOD: Our season kicked off with the reserves having a win whilst the seniors went down in a nail biter by the smallest of margins. After an even first quarter, the reserves slowly got on top in the second term and finished the game off well with our fitness taking over in the second half and recorded a solid 50-point victory in a pleasing start to the year. For the second year in a row, The Basin inflicted a one-point loss in the seniors with little separating the teams in a tense and hard fought second half. After the opposition dominated the early part of the game, we slowly got back into it and by half time trailed by just one goal. After an even third term, the scores were all tied up at the last break which paved the way for a tight finish.

Despite us holding a slender lead for the majority of the term, The Basin squeezed through a couple of behinds in the last minutes to snatch victory right at the end. Today, we host our first home game as we take on local neighbours Heathmont with the teams competing for the Parker Family Cup. As a club we are keen to see the cup return to Jubilee Park and know the players are primed and ready for today’s game and atone for last week’s loss. We welcome all players and supporters of Heathmont and invite them for after match drinks and awards in the social rooms after the match. Good luck to both sides for today and let’s hope we can celebrate two victories with our members and supporters.

Q3

HEATHMONT: It was great to kick off the cobwebs in Round 1 and finally start the season. All teams were pumped to take the field and the HE oval looked a picture. The under-19s have been working hard pre-season with a goal on improving their performance from last year. They had a point to prove and came out jumping against Templestowe – with a seven goal first quarter which set the tone for the game. They boys led at each change to run out winners by 100 points. A great team effort. A new look and young development squad took the field against last year’s premiers and had a battle on their hands from the bounce against an older and more experienced side. To the boys credit they never gave up but couldn’t convert their opportunities when they came their way, but did outscore them in the last quarter to go down by 50 points. Next, it was the seniors’ turn to try and reverse the result of the two teams’ last encounter – it was pressure and contested football from the first bounce with the Jets with their nose in front at quarter time.

They edged their way further in front as the game continued – with a few of the new players making their presence felt. The gusty wind challenged them in the last but a fantastic first round effort to come out 30-point winners! Next stop is Ringwood for the first round of the Parker Family Cup. Don’t forget the KARAOKE NIGHT tonight.

DIVISION 3 WARRANDYTE: Round 1 saw the Bloods defeated by a bigger, stronger Panthers. The Bloods got out to a good start kicking four goals with a strong breeze to lead at quarter time by 19 points. The second quarter was a tight contest for the first 15 minutes but saw the Panthers kick five goals in the last nine minutes to jump to a 40-point lead at the break. The third quarter was again a tussle with the Bloods not able to maximise the use of the strong wind going into three quarter time still 40 points behind. During the last quarter the Bloods again held the Chirnside attack at bay until they were overpowered in the latter half of the quarter to go down by 10 goals. With nine new faces in the team there were signs of nervousness but to the team’s credit they did not stop until the final siren rang. Better players on the day for the Bloods were Tester, Thompson, Fitzgerald, McWhirter and Naughton. This week, the Bloods are at home and host Ferntree Gully where we will have an opportunity to open our season account.

FERNTREE GULLY EAGLES: Round 1 commenced with the unfurling of our 2016 premiership flags followed by our Presidents Lunch which was well supported. Guest speaker was Aaron Vandenberg from the Melbourne Football Club. Thanks to our members for the set up and preparing a two-course lunch. On the track all four sides…(that’s correct four), had a tough day at the office. Thanks to Boronia for welcoming Ferntree Gully to Division 3, there was a great crowd watching the game and upstairs after the game. Our div.2 under-19s ventured out to Mulgrave, at three-quarter time they were still in it however without a bench it made the going tough. We have a number players back this week to bolster the under-19s and the executive is working hard to attract a few more.

DIVISION 3 SOUTH BELGRAVE: Today we welcome The Basin FC to SBFC and our temporary facilities and extend an invitation to you all to stay a while after the games for a drink and a chat before the trip home.

We have had many memorable clashes here at home over the years and hopefully today’s game will be another of those.

After a long preparation commencing in November and some good performances in our practice matches we seemed somewhat flat against what I think is a pretty good team at Park Orchards FC and are looking to bounce back today.

Our two teams of netballers have finished the grading games and have shown improvement along the way as the girls get to know each other’s strengths and I am looking forward to the season ahead and would ask that if you do have time, get to one of the venues and support them in the season ahead. After a season ending ACL reconstruction Jess O’Meara Lainis has stepped up into coaching/ mentoring role and we are very happy for her to stay involved, the netball is something that we see growing at our club in the years ahead.

Memberships are available at today’s games and we ask that you see myself, DMac or Leon and we can and will organise that for you.

If you would like to volunteer your help during game days we will also welcome your contribution.

Many thanks to our sponsors for getting behind us again this year, we are extremely grateful for your continued support.

Upcoming social events are on our social media sites and also displayed in our temporary rooms.

Good luck to all that represent the red, white and black.

SCORESBY: Today we look forward to another instalment of ANZAC football against Boronia.

Thanks to all our players and supporters for their donations and purchases of ANZAC wrist bands and arm bands. They look great! Round 1 saw a fantastic 1977 premiership reunion with close to 100 in attendance. Thanks to Carly Fraser, Colin Roberts, David Callow, Phil Llewellyn and Graeme Klein for their organisation of a brilliant event.

On field we had three big wins against East Burwood. Krisso’s under-19s weren’t at their best, but they came away with the win in a mixed Division 3 and 4 competition for 2017. It was pleasing to see some new players contributing, with Nathan Bardsley and Zac Ryan named best. The reserves kept Frog happy, holding East Burwood goalless in the second half to sit on top of the ladder. Wade McConnon was in everything in his return, with a senior call-up inevitable.

Another newcomer, Jason Cousins was also in good form. In the seniors, a 14 goal to one second half sealed the win. Dyllan Milligan dominated, kicking three goals from the midfield and Jarrod Hicks also kicked three.

Upcoming function is the Full Moon Shuffle on April 29th, after the Basin game. Get your songs in via Facebook or to one of the senior leaders.

Speaking of leaders, congratulations to Matt Krawczyk and Jesse Owen being named cocaptains in 2017 and to Nathan Bardsley and Josh Du Vallon as the under-19s co-captains.

DOCKERS, SHARKS HONOUR ANZACS

A

huge day of football awaits on Sunday as Templestowe clashes with Park Orchards at Templestowe Reserve.

All in the name of honouring our Anzacs, the Dockers have continued to build on their tradition started three years ago with an action-packed day at home, which sees both junior and seniors involved.

Templestowe’s under-14s side will kick off proceedings against Parkside at 9.30am, followed by the under-12 girls and boys and reserves, with the main event kicking off at 1.40pm.

In attendance will be Templestowe RSL president Ron Twining who will be delivering the Ode, and bugler Robbie Dawson who will be performing the Last Post and the rouse in between the minute silence.

Both captains, Daniel Pearce and Tom Feher, will also be laying a wreath to honour the fallen.

Templestowe president Rob Price has been thrilled with the way the initiative has evolved over the years.

“We started the initiative about three years ago when Michael Fitzsimons was president, and Michael decided to make it a big Anzac Day,” Price said.

“Our ex-coach Rick Irwin was affiliated pretty heavily with the RSL in Drouin and he thought we needed to get a closer link to our local RSL.” It is an occasion marked by each player at the club, according to Price.

“As a club and a playing group, on Anzac morning, we do the march with back to the RSL and have breakfast,” he said.

“When Anzac Day lands on the actual game-day the RSL and all the supporters come down and we play the big game.

“We have the ceremony on the ground and we have the soldier on the horse come in on the ground, play the national anthem and the bugler and get right into it.”

Dockers educating the club’s youth on the significance of the day.

It is a relationship between junior and senior club which continues to grow stronger.

“We’ve always been fairly strong with our junior club and last year they changed their name to Templestowe Junior Football Club - we want to bridge the gap and make a closer relationship with the junior club,” Price said.

“Myself and the junior president got together and thought we’d try and schedule as many games as we can and shift the game to Sunday.”

For the Dockers, acknowledging those who have served our country isn’t only limited to Anzac Day, with the club heavily involved with the local RSL throughout the year.

“The other thing we do is our Thursday night meal would traditionally be at the club, but about six to nine times during the year we’re actually going to the RSL for our meal so we’re supporting the RSL,” Price said.

“Some of our after-game functions on the Saturday night we’re actually going back to the RSL - we’re tipping back into our community clubs and giving them a boost.”

With such a monumental occasion being part of the legacy left by former senior coach Rick Irwin, Price says it’s great to have Irwin still involved at the club.

“Rick was phenomenal,” Price said. “(Moving on) was a joint decision - we didn’t want to lose him and he shifted to another role with the junior club and senior club liaison, MC of functions, getting around our sponsors and working that way.

“He’s still involved at the club and he’s got a good position that works well with his job.”

New coach Craig De Corsey works closely with the former coach, where the duo have formed a unique set-up.

“With Craig on board, it’s gone to another level now, because he works pretty closely with Rick (and) it’s a unique situation,” Price said.

DIVISION 4 KILSYTH: The under-19s season didn’t kick off the way they would have liked with a 126-point loss to Surrey Park. Unfortunately, the boys were unable to kick anything but one point, but not without the lack of trying. Best on for the day were: N Hargreaves, B Scheepers, M Clavant, J Newton, N O’Rourke and T Doutch.

The reserves’ season also didn’t start off as well as they would have liked, with a 49-point loss to Surrey Park. Goal kickers on the day were: H Lane, B Fogarty and R Crosby. Best on: E Molesworth, S Killen, T Zaicz, M Spiers, C Donaldson and D Nevins.

The seniors had a tough fight on their hands all game against Surrey in some pretty terrible weather conditions. As the rain came down hard, our boys did not seem to be bothered, kicking six goals to one in the final quarter. Goal kickers: J Miechel 3, M Jackson, H Williams, M Charles, M Jacobs, S Clarke 2, R Mainenti, C Vanflorestein, B Benson, B Fitzsimons, S Irvine and A Masters. Best on: T Browning, C McArthur, J Miechel, B Fitzsimons, M Charles and A Masters.

Our first function of the year is tonight, with our Full Moon Party being held at the clubrooms, 7:30 start, $10 entry! Our annual Ladies Day is being held on the 13th of May at the club with more info to come. Go Cougars!

GLEN WAVERLEY HAWKS: The Glen Waverley Hawks hit the road to take on Kilsyth in Kilsyth in a game which shapes as a huge one coming off a disappointing effort first up to Whitehorse.

Yes, the Hawks hosted Whitehorse in their season opener in blustery conditions at Waverley Toyota Oval and both the reserves and seniors got a sharp wake up call to the level of football that will be required to taste victory in season 2017. At both levels Whitehorse took advantage when the wind was at their backs and ran out 49 and eight-point winners in the reserves and seniors respectively.

New inclusions into the senior team Tom Eddy, Beau Parthenides, Stephen Varney and Brandon Hodges all added a positives in their first hit out for premiership points for the Hawks and will only get better as they become more familiar with the boys. Paul Sinden showed he is ready to be interior midfield gun whilst Ryan Goold demonstrated that his new streamlined figure will certainly help his football in a best for the Hawks’ performance.

Having fallen agonisingly a goal short of Kilsyth away last season, the Hawks are keen to see how they measure against a Cougars team who won handily over Surrey Park in Round 1. The games are traditionally hard fought and the Hawks expect nothing else from Kilsyth this week.

In Social news the clubs first major function for the year will be the $4,000.00 reverse raffle, held on May 6th. All are welcome to join us at what is always a great night. Tickets are $80 each with finger food and drinks included. If you would like to attend or purchase a ticket please visit our website www.glenwaverleyhawks.com The Glen Waverley faithful will be travelling in good numbers to Kilsyth to support their boys to what is hopefully a their first win of the season this week.

GO HAWKS!

FOREST HILL: Season 2017 got off to a great start with two strong wins over Fairpark. Individual highlights were Jake Rowe’s seven goals in the reserves and Matt Carrnelly’s five goals in the seniors. Good performances by both sides but we will need to produce at this level every week over the entire season to ensure we give ourselves the best ladder position and the chance of a big assault on finals.

We hope that all the members of the Zebra family had a safe and enjoyable Easter break and the players watched their chocolate intake. The week off for Easter means we should be fresh as we travel to take on our near neighbours, Nunawading, for the Anzac Day round. Nunawading have made significant improvements since last year and we will need to be switched on and not take the Lions lightly. Hopefully, a couple of good wins can help us consolidate the start to the season and get some momentum following the disrupted start.

This week we will be wearing our special Anzac jumpers so it would be great to get as many of our supporters at the ground for this special day on the football calendar and also at the post-match function. This week our post match awards will be held at the Ringwood RSL with all supporters welcome to attend and enjoy a drink or meal at the bistro. Let’s support our local RSLs and the Anzac Day appeal over the week.

Go Zebras.

Q3

DONVALE: Big thanks to Silvan for hosting our seniors and reserves for a night game in Round 1. Was certainly interesting weather. Honours were shared with Donvale seniors recording a strong win, while our reserves were outpointed in the wet conditions. Our under-19s had a good hit out against third division side The Basin and were disappointed to fall by four goals.

This week it’s more night games and again our under-19s are separated and playing a third division side – today it’s Heathmont. This is a “home game” for Donvale under-19s but at Ringwood, so Heathmont’s three sides can stay together across all three groups. Certainly an interesting fixture but our under-19s are looking forward to the challenge.

Our senior and reserves are at Fairpark for late afternoon and evening matches. Our players are looking forward to it and thanks to Fairpark for trying something a bit different. As always, we wish our hosts best of look off the field and for the games but we will be doing our utmost to take all the premiership points away with us.

We’re settled in to our temporary home at St David’s Cricket Club; right next to Donvale Reserve. Stop in and say hi, we’re open most evenings. Just a couple of months to go now until we move in to what we expect will be magnificently upgrade club rooms of our own.

SURREY PARK: With a massive pre-season undertaken by the Surrey Park Panthers, Round 1 against Kilsyth couldn’t come sooner.

The under-19s set the tone early with a massive 126-point win. Vice-captains Harry Lacchiana and Noah ‘Nosey’ Bennett proved to be a big presence up forward with the pair of long haired louts slotting four goals each. Newcomers Mango Spangaro and Josh Hayes both established themselves through the midfield, showing strength and silky skills. Jonathan Brisbane was also lively down forward with a couple of goals as a result of his pressure and roving.

The reserves followed suit and made it two from two, running out 49-point victors. Bailey Jones lived up to his hype with his presence in the air and excellent ball use. According to Bailey, he gathered seven marks, 22 touches, two goals and one average haircut. ‘The Podge’ (Benjamin Podger-Carroll) looks to be a great off-season acquisition for the Panthers, taking out the President’s Award for best-on-ground, as well as taking his opponent for a surf with his huge specky in the third quarter. In addition, vicecaptain Luke Jackson proved he was no teddy bear, kicking a game high three goals. A great start for the reserves.

Unfortunately, the seniors couldn’t finish off a great opening round for the club with a 42-point loss.

What was a back and forth encounter for the whole day, ballooned out in the last quarter with the rain pelting down. Justin Cuzzupi continued where he left off last season with four great goals. Newcomers Jayden Murphy, Darby Edgeworth and Cam Mccasker were valiant all day in the midfield, as they look to become the engine room of the seniors.

We travel down the road this week as we take on cross suburb rivals Whitehorse in which should be a great day of football on the weekend of Anzac day.

HYDRATION

JUNIOR CORNER By: Dyson Baker – EFL Junior Manager

Lightning Premiership – or as it’s more commonly referred to; organised chaos!

The 2017 Bendigo Bank Lightning Premiership will be the highlight of the season for the hundreds of a upand-coming stars in our under-9s and 10s.

Over the next two weeks (April 30 and May 7) the best and brightest will showcase their skills in their once a year ‘competitive’ hit-out.

The equation is simple – each team plays four games across the day, the sides that claim victory in each of their four matches are crowned premiers!

Once again in 2017, Pinks Reserve (Kilsyth Football Club) will host the two huge gala days with thousands expected to pile in to watch. Two grounds are marked with four ovals with games commencing at before 9am and running right throughout the day!

Players will be kept entertained with each club setting up a tent site which becomes home base for the afternoon.

www.efl.org.au

An entry charge of $3.00 per car or family will apply (please inform all club members). Vehicles will enter from Liverpool Rd. Car park attendants will direct you to the new car park behind the basketball centre or around the main oval.

WE SALUTE OUR SPONSORS! Sponsorship plays a vital role in sport at all levels and without it the league would not be as successful as it is today. The income generated from sponsorship reduces the financial burden on competing clubs and keeps the cost of football in the EFL within reach of all supporters.
