INSIDE THE EFL Is it Time for Change? I read with interest a column penned by James Hird last week talking about the state of the game and in particular, congestion and the role interchange plays in that. It got me thinking about the state of the EFL game, something we consider regularly. Phil Murton Off-field at senior level, a EFL Chief Executive Officer fair bit has evolved with the introduction of the points system, salary cap and the pending competition restructure. At junior level, we increased the number of divisions, introduced a final five and increased re-grading, all enhancing the experience for players. Is it time to take a closer look on field? Historically, we are a game and an industry that is averse to change. But are there issues at present, where are the main areas of concern and what are the potential solutions? It’s on the record my views on player numbers in the EFL and the potential for 16-a-side given the small size of many of our grounds. No one thought less of the VFA when that was a 16-a-side competition. Watching Division 1 footy in particular at most grounds this year has only confirmed my beliefs. The stats don’t lie. Over 75% of our grounds are less than 70% the size of the MCG. The basic numbers show that on our smaller grounds (of which there are plenty), EFL players have only about 65% of the space per player than an AFL player on the MCG does. It would be the same as if we were offered the MCG to play this week’s Balwyn v Noble Park game, but on the proviso we put temporary goals at the back of the square to use as the goals at one end. I think we’d say thanks but no thanks. If the AFL is considered too congested, what hope do the players at our level have? And while I appreciate we have some grounds of bigger size, would giving players on these grounds a bit more space be such a bad thing? As far as interchange is concerned, we’ve done some analysis and know that in Division 1, teams are regularly averaging above 100 rotations per game. What impact is this having on how the game is played? In the TAC Cup they have High Density Rules that

force a certain number of players to be kept in one half of the ground and also inside the 50m arc. The philosophy is that is reduces density/congestion and lets the players play in a more open environment. While no doubt at local level this would be hard to manage and enforce, talk to anyone at TAC Cup level and they’ll tell you it makes for a better game to play and watch. At the Blackburn v Vermont game on the weekend, it was noticeable how many times all 36 players were in one half of the ground. And watching junior finals recently, its worrying the number of times you see most players all in one half of the ground. It means when someone actually gets the ball, they are swamped straight away with little space or time to use their skills. Is this how we want our kids developing their game? In the SANFL they have capped interchange at 50 and introduced ‘last person touch’ for out of bounds. It’s resulted in increased scoring and reduced stoppages and from all reports, the world hasn’t ended over the border since their introduction. As we understand more about the long-term impacts of concussion, bumping and tackling continue to be contentious and serious issues. While it’s a physical game, we need to continue to protect the athletes. Players at all levels, even local footy, are bigger and stronger than they were in the past and combined with increased congestion means more tackles are happening than ever before. What is the end result of all of this for the game? Are competitions such as the SANFL, TAC Cup and community footy the perfect places to test possible changes rather than the elite level? Should we be bold and lead the way? What would EFL footy be like with 16-a-side, zero or limited interchange, and some kind of anti-density rules keeping forwards forward and backs back? Should we be bold and look at them? If you could introduce one thing on-field what would it be? Or should we leave it as is and let the game evolve? As you watch both junior and senior footy this weekend, I’d encourage you to take a good look at how the game is played compared to how it might have been 10 or 20 years ago. Is the new game style a positive? They are all questions worth debating. Good luck to all teams this weekend and see you at the footy.

INTERNATIONAL CUP 2017 By: Matt Fotia

he AFL International Cup is back for its sixth instalment and looks to be the biggest one yet. There will be 25 teams in total, with 18 competing in the men’s tournament and eight sides in the women’s. Papua New Guinea (PNG) and Canada are out to defend their respective titles from 2014. This weekend two Eastern Football League clubs will be hosting IC17 games, with Canada taking on New Zealand at Mt Waverley Reserve and USA doing battle with PNG at Montrose Reserve. Waverley Blues player and vice president Dwayne Wathen says the Blues have developed a connection with Canadian football prior to the IC Cup. “We’ve got a connection with the Canadian coach, I used to play footy with him at Glen Waverley Rovers, but he also played school footy at Caufield with a number of our players,” Wathen said. “They actually came out and trained with us during the last International Cup.” The Blues decided not to miss an opportunity to enhance their pre-existing relationship with AFL Canada and looked to host a game for this year’s tournament. “This year we applied to host a game with the AFL and AFL Canada and we got awarded the game,” Wathen said. “On Thursday the whole Canadian team (came) down for training, a dinner, their team selection and our team selection. “(The) majority of the Canadian team have never been to Australia let alone seen a suburban football match, so we’re hoping to give them a unique AFL experience.” The game will also be a chance for the Waverley Blues to put themselves on show to the wider public, according to Wathen. “It’s a really important day for us to showcase ourselves to the City of Monash, the Eastern Football League and the AFL, we’re growing as a club with a new women’s teams and more juniors, so we are wanting to promote what we do and invite people to the club.” Whilst the Blues will be hosting their first ever IC cup game this time, Division 1 club Montrose are preparing for its second IC event. Rod Buncle is part of the Montrose bloodlines. A past player and committee member from the ‘70s and ‘80s, Buncle returned to the club in 2014 and was chairman of the board in 2015 and 2016. 2014 was not only the return of Rod to Montrose, but the club’s first involvement in the IC and Rod took on a role in preparation for that fixture. “The year I came back they had IC14 and I coordinated the event on community match day when we hosted the USA and New Zealand, and I am coordinating the event again,” he said. 6

The Eastern Footballer

IC14 saw Rod take an interest in USA AFL as he went on to travel the states and involve himself in its development. “Since then I’ve travelled across states over the last three years going to their nationals and now I am taking over the reins from Tony Fairhead who was the Victorian officer for the Australian advisory board for USA AFL,” Buncle said. The link between Montrose and the international development of our game is incredibly strong. Not only have the Demons had a number of their players head over to play in the USA, but have picked up PNG representatives in Matt Little and ex-Balwyn player Jay Jay Peni this season. The differences between sport in the USA and Australia will be plain to see for the overseas visitors to Montrose Reserve this Saturday. “In the US in particular they run their whole sport at a professional level streaming from the College system,” Buncle said. “They don’t have community clubs like we do here.” Similarly to Dwayne, Rod believes the opportunity to see what community footy and sport is all about will be one of the main things the International players can take back to their home countries. “The thing is to show them here, how community clubs operate and to take that back,” he said. “It’s not just come and play a game then go home, it’s more than that.” Montrose are also taking this opportunity to not only help develop the USA and PNG AFL systems, but also promote themselves locally. “It gives us a fantastic opportunity to engage with the community for Montrose and its surrounding districts, poke the interest of people who may not normally come to the football to come and have a really great social day,” Buncle said.

SAY IT NOW #SAYITNOW WEEK: MONDAY 14TH AUGUST- SUNDAY 20th AUGUST #SayItNow week returns in 2017 as Victorians join the conversation to celebrate the important people in their lives After the incredible success of its inaugural campaign in 2016, #SayItNow week is back in 2017. Victorians young and old are encouraged to celebrate the important people in their lives during Tobin Brothers Funerals’ #SayItNow week from Monday 14 to Sunday 20 August 2017. #SayItNow week encourages people to pick up the phone, catch up for a coffee or send a message to a friend or loved one, to tell them how important they are in their life, and then share their #SayItNow moment on social media. Media icon Denis Walter, Puka Up CEO and former AFL champion Wayne Schwass, along with AFLW star Moana Hope, Melbourne Victory legend Archie Thompson, A Moveable Feast presenter Kate Stevenson and Australian stunt bike rider Lukey Luke have been named #SayItNow Week Ambassadors in 2017. Each Ambassador will share their touching stories by expressing their appreciation for the impact a mentor, family member or friend has had on their life. Each day one celebrity video will be released via the Ambassadors and Tobin Brothers’ digital and social media channels throughout the week.

James MacLeod, Managing Director Tobin Brothers Funerals, said #SayItNow Week encourages everyone to get involved. “Too often, staff at Tobin Brothers have witnessed the heartache suffered by families and friends who did not have an opportunity to recognise the impact a loved one has had on their life before they have died. We felt compelled to develop #SayItNow Week as a way of reminding people not to wait until it’s too late to express your thoughts and feelings to the people around you. #SayItNow Week is a wonderful opportunity to encourage all Victorians to celebrate their important relationships by sending messages of gratitude to their loved ones.” Moments can be shared on social media with the hashtag #SayitNow and the ambassador videos will be released daily at www. tobinbrothers.com.au.

NEIL’S FOOTY JOURNEY By: Tim Fitzsimons

fter retiring from football in 2009, just shy of 300 EFL games at both Vermont and Doncaster, few would have thought Brad Neil would reach the milestone eight years later at South Croydon.

That is exactly what he has done, achieving the feat as the South Croydon reserves coach, occasionally pulling on the boots for the Dogs in the twos when required. This has allowed him to reach the exclusive milestone back in their Round 11 win over North Ringwood. “I finished footy in 2009 and I knew I was around the mark,” Neil said. “I started coaching the South Croydon twos and every now and then we were short so I’ve just been filling in.” Neil’s journey has been a remarkable one that includes five premierships, a best and fairest at two clubs, over 20 division one senior finals, a two-time EFL representative and a life membership at the Vermont Football Club. The Vermont ruckman throughout the ‘90s and early 2000s was a part of five premiership campaigns for the Eagles in one of the most successful eras not just the club, but the entire competition has seen. The Eagles played in 13 out of 14 grand finals from 1988 through to 2001 and were premiers on 10 of those occasions, signifying the juggernaut that was Vermont through this period. It is through most of these glory years where Neil is grateful he was able to play in a team that reached the top of the mountain on multiple occasions. “The highlights are obviously playing in the premierships and (I was) lucky enough to be at the right club at the right time,” Neil said. Despite finishing his career at Doncaster, having a stint at Essendon in the under-19s and now currently coaching the reserves at South Croydon, the Vermont Football Club will always be close to his heart having started his career at the Eagles back in his junior days. “I grew up playing juniors at Vermont, so I went from under-12s all the way through,” he said. “Then I went up and played Essendon U19’s and was away from the club for a couple of years and then came back but it was playing with all mates really.” Premiership teammate and coach during his time at Vermont, Craig Coghlan highlights Neil’s hunger for success and honest love for the game and the club as his strongest traits. “He didn’t like being beaten, like most footballers but he really played with a lot of passion,” Coghlan said. “Was never after money so to speak to play football, he just really played for the jumper and loved the club. “He was a gentle giant on the field. Big frame, big boy but just a gentle giant.” Off the field, Neil’s boisterous persona with his teammates stood out during his time at the club according to Coghlan. www.efl.org.au

“He used to love going out, having a few beers with the boys and carrying on,” he said. “He (was) an absolute larrikin.” A busy work schedule at the time meant Neil had to make the decision to move to Doncaster in 2003 where he continued his successful career, winning a best and fairest to go with over 100 games at the club. “I just hit 30 and started to work in the city so it was harder to get to training,” Neil said. It was through former North Melbourne and Fitzroy player Brett Chandler who a teammate of Neil’s at Vermont that saw the veteran ruckman land at the Sharks. “He started coaching Doncaster and said if I wanted to come down I’d just have to train for one night a week,” Neil said. “I was in Camberwell at the time it was just a lot easier.” An aging and tiring body due to countless years as a division one ruckman also contributed to the decision to leave Vermont and join Doncaster. “Second division football was probably where I was at, at the time with the body and playing in the ruck for so many years I just copped it. “I grew up at Vermont, I loved it there but getting over 30 I was just getting too sore and just wanted to finish off my days playing footy there (Doncaster).” Neil is currently a vital figure at South Croydon after joining the club in 2013 as a senior assistant coach. He has since taken on the role as the reserves coach and with the club in a healthy position on the field with the seniors sitting second and the reserves third, Neil has enjoyed the opportunity to develop the Dog’s younger brigade into quality senior footballers. “They offered me the reserves coaching role which is obviously a development role, just trying to get some kids through so it makes a stronger South Croydon seniors side,” he said. “I just like coaching the young kids and just seeing them develop through the year.” As far as further coaching goes, Neil’s priority is always with his family and although he enjoys his work at South Croydon, a senior job is not on his agenda anytime soon. “I’ve got a young family now so I don’t really have the time if I wanted to do a senior role itself,” Neil said. “My kids are getting to that age now where I’m starting to miss a bit of their sports and things like that. “I just enjoy helping out the twos and then helping out with the rucks and so forth. That’s enough for me.” 13

DIVISION 1 BALWYN: THREE ROUNDS TO GO! A satisfying win to Seniors last week, finishing strongly to take a 42 point victory and retain 3rd place on the ladder. Well done to ‘best on’ Jeff Gobbels playing an important role at both ends, fabulous game from the Skipper Rennie Gilchrist and great to welcome back John Meesen and Luke Barker who kicked 6 goals today. Reserves were brave and gallant in defeat, going down by just 7 points. U19s did their best as always, but had a tough day, with a number of injuries taking their toll. SO TO TODAY and we host our old friends NOBLE PARK, all of us vying for that vital win to secure a top 5 place and ensure finals in 2017! Go Tigers. LADIES LUNCHEON will now be held on Sat 26 August – our final home game for the year! Girls get your tables together for what is always one of the great days! BEST & FAIREST will be held on Friday night 6th October. Please put this date in your diary and stay tuned to website and Facebook for full details to come.

DIVISION 1 NOBLE PARK: With the Season quickly coming to an end it is time to reflect on our Season so far on and off the field. Firstly, off the field I am thrilled to say that our Membership, Sponsorship, Luncheons & Apparel sales are at very good levels. This is mainly due to your Committee and Volunteers creating a Club environment that all stakeholders are happy to be a part of and the willingness to continue to be involved at any level. The feedback we have received in relation to some initiatives delivered has been pleasing and we will continue to listen to your feedback, good or bad. Our vision from the start was always to create a Footy Club that is welcoming for not only Players but to Family, Friends, Supporters & Sponsors. We will continue to focus on this and will always try to improve on how we go about things. Hundreds of volunteer hours are put into the Club to make all of this happen and we are lucky to be surrounded by selfless people who do this so willingly. A huge thank you to everyone involved. On the Field we sit fairly comfortably in the Top 5 in the Under 19’s with the Reserves fighting for a position in the Final 5. After a couple of losses recently the Seniors now have a fight on their hands to secure a Top 5 position. We now set ourselves for the remaining Games left of the Season to establish ourselves in the Top 5 and to aim for another Finals series having all three sides in for the first time in our EFL history . Although disappointing to drop the last 2 games in the Seniors the Club, now more than ever, need to stick together and support the Coaches & Players to ensure we give them every opportunity to gain the necessary results. With hard work I’m confident we can finish the year off well and achieve this. Go Bulls

DIVISION 1 VERMONT: Even more wind and it was very very cold. On the other hand, the games at Blackburn were hot indeed. As we had anticipated. The Seniors defended magnificently, but still looked vulnerable at the last break. A super final quarter against the wind got the job done. The better players were the entire backline lead by Rory Lehmann, Joel Perry and Lachlan Carey plus two mids Lachie Johns and Tom Schneider. The Reserves also defended well, but fell down when using the wind and paid the price for many wasted opportunities. The better players were Lewis Neate, Charlie Young, Brook Kainey, Bailey Hotker, Alex Wells and Ryan Antidormi. The Under 19’s looked in massive trouble at three quarter time, but found a way against the wind to get up and take the points. The better player were Aiden Stephens, Anthony Jenkins, Jack Whitbourn, Kody Logan, Pat Wallis and Matt Brown. The Gen Waverley Eagles were somewhat undermanned and could not match the Donvale opponents. Better players were Matt Sevior, Jordan Wright, Matt Eaton, Alex Manning and James Morrison. The Netball Eagles had a terrific win. Well done girls. Good luck for last night. SOCIAL:- Coming up we have a unique evening indeed. TV’s Mike Sheahan will interview three generations of Weidemans:Murray, Mark and Sam at an evening dinner function on Wednesday the 23rd of August at the Vermont Social Club.

DIVISION 1 NORWOOD: Norwood completed a comfortable 75 point win at home against Bayswater last weekend, Spearhead Leigh Williams bagging 6 goals. Leigh’s tally for the year is now 63 goals, he now leads the goalkicking in 1st division by 9 and is perfectly placed to win the competition goalkicking for the 3rd time. Other good players on the day included youngsters Brayden Mead and Corey Quinlivan, whilst the experienced Matt Pearson, Justin Gould and Jordan Gysberts were also prominent. The development squad also recorded a strong win by 34 points, the good news being the return of ex-AFL star Sam Blease from illness. The U19s had their 3rd consecutive bye, taking advantage of this to have a practice game hitout against Lilydale, who also had a bye. Next week we venture to ladder leaders Vermont where we will have to bring our very best to record wins.

DIVISION 1

BLACKBURN: We hope our many past players and special guests enjoyed last week’s Burners Luncheon. Guest speaker Craig Hutchinson breathed new life into the many “around the town” AFL stories and added some of his own, during what was a most entertaining function. On the park, the Colts, in an even team performance, matched the unbeaten Eagles for the first qtr. and with a slight breeze, dominated stoppages and contested ball, kicking 7 goals to 1 to go into the long break 8 pts up. The boys were showing great commitment and endeavour around the packs and set up a near match winning lead in the last qtr. only to lose some momentum down back to go down by 7 pts in what was a ripper contest. With players returning over the next couple of weeks, the boys are well positioned to secure the double chance in the finals, a great achievement for this young squad. In a re-match of the 2016 2nd Semi Final, both unbeaten Reserves Teams squared up again and provided a highly skilled contest. The Burners never relinquished their early momentum and kept Vermont to their lowest score of the season and win every qtr. in what was a polished display. The boys now sit a game clear and have combined some youthful playing exuberance with the luxury of some experienced heads to set up the rest of the Season and go into finals with confidence of a good showing. In the main game, the Burners never got going and found it hard to score against the best defence in the league, averaging only 55pts per game. Matty Tum and Buck Daniher continued their good season form but it was a tough day in the office and with some crunch games to come, destiny will be in the player’s hands as a much anticipated finals spot awaits. Today we look forward to another solid hit out away to Montrose. – Good luck to all teams. The much anticipated Grand Final Eve Luncheon will take place on Friday 29th September. With Special Guest Speaker and 250game Collingwood Premiership Star, Peter Daicos “The Macedonian Marvel”. It shapes up as our best lunch of the year and on a Public Holiday to boot! Tickets should be purchased ahead of time as they will SELL fast. $100 /head 2 x course luncheon with drinks.

RADIO FROM 1PM SATURDAY

DIVISION 1 BAYSWATER: Only one on the bench against a full list in the reserves was always going to be a big ask but the boys fought out the first half well to lead by 8 points at the main break. We slipped behind as more injuries took their toll to trail by ten points coming in to the last. We were over powered in the final term to eventually go down by 34 points but overall it was a pretty gutsy effort. Patty got two goals with the better players, AJ, Matty Cam, Vandy, Pritch and Zac D. Due to the lack of depth with injuries to our on ball brigade in Joel, Malcs and Stall, it was pretty much one way traffic in the seniors. They jumped out to a 17 point lead at quarter time, but we were still in it. Their second quarter was too strong and the game was effectively over at the half. We halved the third quarter but Norwood proved too strong in the last to record a 75 point win. Scooter and Groves bagged a couple each with Rooey outstanding until injured, Grubby Zac L, Schroedes and Bryce were contributors all day for us. As usual, the story was we were just not physically big enough against their talls and strong bodied runners. Keep at it boys. Make it a win today at home against the Saints. Ladies Luncheon today, $30 per head covers a spit meal and some drinks. Not too late for a walk up start. Go Baysie.

DIVISION 1 NORTH RINGWOOD: The North Ringwood Football Club community is extremely saddened by the passing of Darryl Court, a much loved and valued past player and Team Of The Century member. Son of Norm, also NRFC past player and Pam (deceased). Our deepest sympathy to family and many friends. RIP mate. “Tits” you will be sadly missed. The crippling injury toll hit us with full force last week aginst Rowville. With 9 senior players missing and many more Reserves also unavailable the domino effect went through to the Reserves and Under 19s. Thanks to two “old stagers” in Weeksy and Gordo for pulling the boots back on, as well as Under 19s players to help get Reserves and Senior teams on the ground. Starting the game undermanned, inaccurate kicking didn’t help the Under 19s. Although we had only two less scoring-shots, 3.12 to12.5 doesn’t end up a good result, but the effort was still there. Reserves had a result they would like to forget as far as the score goes, but thet battled gallantly against a good side that sit solidly in fourth position on the ladder. The scoreboard didn’t reﬂect how tight the game really was. Thanks again to all those who stepped in to help out. With 9 senior players out the task seemed a little uphill, but in a sign that our depth is better this year, we kept close to Rowville in the first half and went into 3/4 time break with a 4 point lead. Unfortunately we couldn’ hold on to the lead and went down by 5 points. A great effort by Josh Ralph in the ruck against “the giant” who was nearly a foot taller than him. As Moyley said after the game, he couldn’t dispute the endeavour of the team. 79 tackles is very significant that the guys threw everything into the game but just fell short in the end. Young Under 19s Captain Prahn Nicholson made his senior debut and was going well until being carried off early with a knee injury. Best wishes for a speedy recovery Prahn, we hope the injury is not as bad as it looked. Annual Ball tonight should be another great event. Next Saturday is the President’s Lunch, a few tickets still available, call Scott to book. Go Saints!!!!!!

DIVISION 1 DONCASTER: Well done to Grace and the girls on completing our inaugural Netball teams first season and signed off with a victory over the top team!!! A win and a loss last week against Noble Park. Unfortunately we had to forfeit the Colts but with numbers returning and the DJFC Colts season complete, we should have more numbers for the last 3 rounds. Reserves benefited from the Colts withdrawal numbers wise but we were still out classed by the Bulls who accounted for us easily. Best – Christey, Maddern, Moritz, Learmonth, Parks & Polak. Seniors were in a must win game as we were fighting for finals spots with Noble, it was tricky conditions all day with the strong wind. With a workman like effort, we built what looked like a winning lead after 98% of the match only to see the Bulls double their goal telly in the last 3 minutes of the game and nearly snatch the win from us. We hung on and though we tried to throw it away, we’ll take the 4 points from the Bull Ring any way we can. The win now puts our destiny in our own hands. Best – Mahon, Komen, McKenzie, Annakis, & Schimma. Today we are home hosting East Ringwood and then back home again next week. Apologies, last week I put in that today was Ladies Lunch when it’s actually Coterie Lunch, welcome all with guest Nick Holland former Hawk and current CEO of EJ Whitten Foundation. Next week is most definitely Ladies Lunch, so if you were disappointed you couldn’t make it today, well good news - tickets are still available – see Anna Annakis !!! Penultimate chance to win Voice’s Punt today so hand over your hard earned to...... STICKTA!!!!

DIVISION 1 EAST RINGWOOD: A reasonable but breezy day saw the Colts play some good footy in patches before going down to a more efficient Montrose outfit. It was good to see Alex Condello play a solid 4 quarter game. Both Development Squads were down on numbers and each team had to be supplemented by Colts boys. In an entertaining game, the Roos were in control for most of the time and recorded a very good win. Scott Maizels continued his excellent season for us. With scores level at the final change, our boys dug deep to pull off a gritty win against an inaccurate Demons side and make it 3 in a row. James Belo was clearly our best and earned the Warren Gilbert Pewter. Thanks to Peter Schwab and Richard Stubbs for providing some great entertainment at our final Presidentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Lunch. Today we head to Schramms Reserve to take on the Sharks who will, no doubt, be seeking revenge for their Round 8 loss to the Roos.

The Eastern Footballer

McSHANE’S ODYSSEY By: Megan Hustwaite Twitter: @MeganHustwaite

Leesa McShane has seen women’s football blossom and evolve before her eyes.

The Bayswater spearhead was just 12 years old when she debuted in the Victorian Women’s Football League, vying with players twice her age, height and weight. “Back then it was compulsory to wear shin guards, a mouthguard and helmet if you were under 15. And it was definitely a little scary coming up against the bigger women, that’s for sure,” McShane said. “I was playing full forward back then too. I’d pretty much just stand there in the goal square, the ball would come down to me and I’d just kick it and it’d go through. “My first team was Boronia but it was so rare to have a women’s football team back then so sides would end up folding and you’d have to find somewhere else to go and play. There weren’t usually clubs close to home so I went from Boronia to the Eastern Lions to Scoresby, I was at Bayswater then Knox and now I’m back at Bayswater for a second stint. “It’s taken a while but now women’s footy is finally in a great place.” And so is McShane. After 13 rounds, the 29-year-old leads the Deakin Uni Senior Women’s goal kicking with 33 goals, nine clear of Mount Evelyn duo Melanie Hogg (24) and Katelyn Betts (21). She’s kicked bags of seven (against Upper Ferntree Gully) and five (against Norwood and Yarra Junction) while leading the Waters to a 10-2 record and second place on the ladder. “This is probably the best team I’ve played in and I’m really enjoying our team atmosphere, they’re all really good girls and really friendly. Bayswater’s a really nice club to be around,’’ she said. “The team work has been the real key to our success this season I think, it’s cliché but we are a team. I didn’t really know many of the girls before this year so it’s taken time for us to get to know each other and how we all play. “I reckon we all play together as team really well. I kick the goals, I have the easy job really but credit has to go to our mids and backs who are just amazing and get the ball up to me. “Last year at Knox they put me in the midfield, I didn’t really like it and I was a bit unfit as well. My home is in the forward line, that’s where I enjoy my footy most and if you kick a goal then that’s a bonus.” McShane is proud of how the game has grown at all levels and received the recognition it richly deserves. She says her club and league are proof of the boom. “It really is amazing. I couldn’t believe how big, but also how good this competition was,’’ she said. “I wasn’t really up to speed on how big the EFL www.efl.org.au

women’s comp was this year. I sort of just rocked up to Bayswater and thought we’d be playing teams on the other side of Melbourne again but all the teams are close by and the side most furthest away is probably Waverley and that’s only half an hour away. “We used to play Geelong and Ballarat back in the day so to have most grounds 10 minutes away is amazing.” Bayswater has been the second-best side all year, setting the pace behind ladder-leader Mount Evelyn, and McShane and her team believe they can buck a poor recent finals trend and go on to win an historic flag. “We’re absolutely hoping and believing we can go all the way,’’ she said. “We came close to knocking Mount Ev off a few weeks ago, we were leading all day then just lost it in the last quarter which wasn’t fun. We’ve watched the video back, looked at the things we did wrong and what we need to work on, both as a team and individually. “We think we’re a pretty good chance of winning the flag this year and I believe if we were to it would be the first one for the Bayswater women’s team which would be fantastic. “Our captain was saying the other day that every time we’ve been in finals we’ve got absolutely hammered so the plan is for that not to happen this year.”

MOOROOLBARK: It was another tough day for the Mustangs last week as we travelled to Knox to take on the ladder leaders in both grades. The reserves were right in it at the final change with a one-point lead but failed to capitalise, going down by three goals. Blake Daniell got the nod as BOG with Higgins, Johns, Ward, Sutherland and Dymond also in the best. The seniors were slow out of the blocks and never recovered, with one solitary goal on the board at half time. Our scoring improved in the second half but it was never going to be enough to catch the strong Knox outfit, the final margin being 49 points. Big “Sticks” Stephens tried all day in the ruck and was voted best. Jordy Roth was the only multiple goal kicker with two and was also in the best players. Others who tried hard were Jordan, Belli, Georgiou and McConnell. It doesn’t get any easier today as we travel to Zerbes Reserve to tackle second placed Doncaster East. With finals fast approaching both sides need to rediscover that winning formula that was evident in the middle part of the season but seems to have slipped away. Members draw has jackpotted to $1,900 so get down to the club on Friday nights for Happy Hour and your chance to win the cash. The bike raffle is also up and running so get your tickets from the bar. GO MUSTANGS!!!

DIVISION 2 CROYDON: This week we welcome Wantirna South players, supporters and officials to Swinburne Oval. Last weekend the Kings Park ground was heavy and combined with a gusty wind it made scoring difficult. The senior team tried hard but struggled in the difficult conditions. Fraser Smith, Leigh Kimpton and Josh Bolton were the best players. However the seconds and under 19’s flew the flag and had good wins. The seconds came home with the wind and won 7-11 to 6-7. Trent Martin kicked four goals and besides Trent the best players were Nathan Parlby, Jimmy Grant and Jimmy Smith. The under 19’s also handled the conditions well to win 5-17 to 1-2. Best players were Kane Doueal, Tom Maddern and Nick Barrett. The Major Raffle Draw will be held tonight after the game. Would you please return your tickets and there will be some tickets available if you wish to purchase one. The Past Player’s Day will be held on the last home game on 26 August. Details of the Presentation Night will be released shortly.

DIVISION 2 WANTIRNA SOUTH: It was good weekend for the club last weekend and the most pleasing aspect was the improved performance of the under 19’s. The boys haven’t had much luck with injury this year, however, most of the boys have stuck at it and nearly pulled off a great victory against Mulgrave. Also, a big thanks to Mulgrave, who were happy to play 16 a side for a period of the game. Our reserves and seniors continued their good form with solid wins against good opposition. Both sides can make the finals, but it will take commitment and hard work from all players on the list. Today we head over to Croydon. Good luck to all sides. Our next function is the ‘Matthew Clark tribute lunch’ on Saturday, August 19. Matt has been involved in the club as a player, assistant coach and senior coach for close to 20 years and this function is a way we can say thanks. There will also be a $1,000 draw. See Mick Gillin or Wicksy for tickets. Junior Finals at Walker reserve are on again tomorrow. If you have some spare time, please volunteer to help out. It would be much appreciated. Thanks to all those that volunteered last week. The last function is the vote count night after the last game on Saturday, August 26th.

DIVISION 2 WAVERLEY BLUES: Today we have an actionpacked day and we welcome all players and supporters from Knox Football Club and the New Zealand and Canadian teams. Thanks to Knox for accommodating the AFL International Match so we can fit four matches on the one day and make it a memorable one for everyone. Welcome as well to the past players, officials and supporters in attendance for Past Players Day. As the day progresses I can’t wait to hear the wisdom imparted by our heroes of yesteryear to not only our own current crop of players, but to players from around the globe. Players whom, back in our day, were probably playing rugby or ice hockey instead of our great game. Back in our day there were probably more fights and lost teeth, so we’ll have that in common. Last week the Under 19s and reserves put wins on the board but the seniors couldn’t quite get over the line with the wind in the last quarter against a strong Donny East side. Another huge game for the 19s today as we fight to hold on to our spot in the top 4. We had Knox on toast on their patch last time but stopped dead. Let’s just not do that again. Congratulations to Cam Robinson for reaching 50 games this week. One of our many players graduating through the ranks and making his name in the senior side. The women’s team had another win and have cemented their spot in the finals in just their first season. A fantastic achievement for Goldy and the gang. August 26th after the last home & away game will be the $2500 draw. See the club website for details and to buy a ticket. Will be a great night as always. Go Blues!

DIVISION 2 KNOX: Today we travel to Mt. Waverley Reserve looking to get 3 wins to take back to The Fort. Last week the U/19’s battled out a thrilling draw against Ferntree Gully. Our boys jumped out the blocks early leading by 17 points at ¼ time. The lead increased shortly after the first change before FTG clawed their way back into the game to be within a couple of kicks at half time. FTG lead by a goal with about 4 minutes to go before our boys leveled the scores. Ryan Dean continued his impressive year kicking 4 to take his season tally to 43. Skipper, Liam Anson, was relentless down back all day with Ben Griffin and Daniel Clarke having solid performances. The Reserves came out against a Mooroolbark outfit needing to win to stay in the top 4. In what was a very tight and physical contest, it was our boys who went into half time 7 points up after a very even first quarter. Mooroolbark then kicked the only goal of the 3rd quarter to take a 2-point lead, but that was never going to be enough as our boys who were coming home with the wind kicked 3 unanswered goals in the last term to win the game by 18 points. Paul Tredrea wound the clock back with a standout performance; Jordy Grimston and Jarrod Fisher were also solid contributors. The Seniors went into their game with 5 changes from the team that beat Lilydale. Key defender Jesse Plostins returned after missing the previous 10 games due to injury and it was happy days from there as our boys got off to a great start to lead by 19 points at ¼ time. The boys then kept Mooroolbark goalless in the 2nd qtr to go into halftime up by 40 points. From there it was an even 3rd quarter before our boys kicked 5 goals to 4 in the last, to run away 49-point winners. Harry Greaves booted another 4 goals up forward with Mitch Hanegraaf kicking 3 in the win. Marcus Jordan continued his purple patch giving plenty of run and use off half back all day along with Ryan Wilson damaging through the midfield. Please join us back at the Knox Club tonight for after match awards. Everyone is welcome! BOAT CRUISE! Next Saturday night after the game at Mitcham. Boarding in Docklands from 7.30pm for an 8pm take off. Tickets are still available for $60 with massively discounted drinks aboard. Everyone is more than welcome. Please see Harry or Jane to pay.

ROUND 16: SATURDAY 12 AUGUST 2017

MULGRAVE: This week we travel out to Mitcham for reserves and senior games, the under 19s have a bye. Last week we headed to Walker reserve to take on Wantirna South, in very blustery and cold conditions. The under 19s started the day with a strong win, best players were Matt Zogoulas, Matt Ellin and Jack Robertson. The reserves were down on manpower again, but fought hard all day, best were Aaron Lucas, Matt Young and Ned Rowland. The seniors were in the game all day, except for about fifteen minutes with the wind in the second quarter. We entered the last quarter forty-six points down, and closed to lose by only seventeen points. Best were Seb Henderson, Lachie Raymer and Dean Siakoulis.

DIVISION 2 UPPER FERNTREE GULLY: Today we congratulate Matt Lawson on playing 300 games for Upper Gully becoming the 4th player in the clubs history to do so behind Don Barton, Craig Marson and Andy Lee. Matt has been an outstanding example of getting the most out of himself as a player and he and his family should be very proud of this significant achievement. Everyone is invited to stay around after the reserves game and watch the senior’s take on 4th placed Lilydale in another game that we need to win to keep alive our finals chances. Last week the seniors continued their good form running away from Croydon after a tight first half in windy conditions. The Netball girls Black team last night played their semi final against Norwood. The Women’s team have a bye this week after not playing last week due to Norwood forfeiting and will play their last game for the season against Waverly next week. Great results for the juniors last week with the U12, U13 and U15 sides all winning to go straight into the Grand Final next week. Unfortunately the U17A side went down in a close game against Knox to end their season. The junior girls also had mixed results with the U12 and U16 sides winning while the U14 lost to end their season. Tomorrow is also the last game of the season for the Vets side who should have a full team against Boronia at Kings Park.

300 FOR KINGS’ STALWART By: Daniel Cencic Twitter: @DC_EFL

History will be made this weekend as Upper Ferntree Gully’s Matt Lawson becomes just the fourth player in the club’s 68-year history to play 300 games. Lawson has known no different than to don the Kings’ red and blue stripes across the journey, beginning his footy career with St Johns/Bluebirds Football Club in the juniors for 157 games before carving out one of the senior club’s most celebrated careers. To become just the fourth player behind Don Barton (1956-1974), Craig Marson (1964-1987) and Andy Lee (1993-2017) to reach the milestone, Lawson says although it’s been a long time coming, it has hit only hit home on the eve of the big day. “It’s probably hit home a little bit over the last few days – throughout the year I knew it was coming up so now that it’s coming up, it’s pretty exciting,” he said. Debuting in Round 17, 1999 after building form across the under-18s and reserves, Lawson doesn’t remember a great deal from his first senior match – a 24-point loss to Doncaster at Schramms Reserve – but believes it was the catalyst going forward which would result in his part in the 2002 reserves flag three years later. “It (1999) was our first year up in second division,” he said. “I don’t remember too much throughout the game but I know I hit the post with one of my very first kicks.” As a sub-plot to the 2002 reserves grand final, Lawson would find himself with the bleach-blonde locks for the big occasion, in a bet that somewhat backfired for the Kings stalwart. “I said if we’d made the grand final (in 2002), I said I’d do that hairstyle, just for the grand final,” he said. “The old Brownlow Blonde they used to call it!” “We played against Waverley Blues, we beat Wantirna South to get into the grand final and we hadn’t beaten them all year. “We won pretty well in the end and it was at Boronia. “It would have been the last time I ever bleached my hair, that’s for sure!” While the wait for the ultimate – a senior premiership – would be quite a lengthy one for Lawson and the Kings, grand final appearances in 2006 (a 46-point loss to South Croydon) and 2009 (a 55-point loss to Mooroolbark) served as both jubilation and relief as the Kings stormed to their first flag in 12 years in 2010, defeating Doncaster. “It was very special, especially losing one the year before,” Lawson said. “When you lose a grand final, the first thoughts that go through your mind is are you ever going to get 38

back there again?” “They (Mooroolbark) were the best side in the competition (in 2009), but to go on the next year and to get another crack at it, it was a pretty special year.” Sharing the moment with good mates and names such as Shannon Graham, Mathew Lizza, Tim Watts, Jay Sherlock, Matthew Petracca, Tate Hickleton and Tim Riseley is a memory Lawson cherishes most. “It was a pretty special feeling and to play with a fair few guys that I’d played junior footy with and a lot that had been at the club for a long time,” he said. “I’ve gone on to play a lot of footy with those guys. “Those guys played a long time at our footy club and waited long enough to achieve the ultimate success and I think that made it a bit more special that a lot of those guys that had been at the club for a long time. “The majority of the side was made up of (former) club juniors or had been there for a long time.” Season 2016 would present a unique challenge for Lawson, with injuries and battle-weariness of playing in the backline would take its toll. While the Kings romped to an undefeated season, claiming the senior flag, Lawson played in the reserves grand final on a day the 35-year-old describes and remembers as ‘bittersweet’. “That’s why you play footy, to win premierships. The senior ones hold a pretty special place, I had aspirations to try and get there again last year but injuries and form didn’t allow it,” Lawson said. “A grand final’s a grand final and you want to win them, that’s for sure. “(But) it was bittersweet. “There might have been four or five of the boys that it was their second premiership. Also there were a couple of guys that I’d coached in the under-17s a couple of years before. “It would have been nice to share that with those boys – bittersweet, yes, but a pretty proud moment to see guys experience what I’d done years ago and see my good mates be successful.” While Lawson’s on and off-field persona has always typified an exceptional team and clubman, the myriad of individual honours achieved across 18 years of senior footy hold great significance. Honours include the Dennis Callahan Best Under-21 Player in 2003, the Dave Baker Most Courageous Award in 2012, the Best Playing Clubman Award in 2013 along with life membership of the club in 2010. The senior vice-captaincy is also an achievement the

300-gamer reflects fondly on. “I hold them pretty dearly,” Lawson said. “The people that were at our footy club long before us, there’s a bit of history attached to them and they mean a little bit more. “To be recognised at your football club as a leader is pretty special, not only by your peers but the people around your football club.” The burning desire to one day become a senior coach has also driven Lawson’s interests, venturing into the coaches’ box in 2012 where he took on the role of under-17s coach for five years. Leading the club to the under-17s flag in 2014 has led to Lawson being recognised as a nominee for Coach of the Year in 2014 and 2015, also receiving the Junior Club Outstanding Services Award in 2016. The move into coaching is one Lawson has enjoyed. “The timing was right and I haven’t looked back since,” he said. “To experience success and to see the guys go on to play senior footy – 12 of the boys I coached I got to play in the seniors with and a number of others across reserves.” A dedicated family has ridden every high and low

that comes with the game, especially 18 years of senior footy, with brother Jarrad playing 108 games with the club, including sharing in the 2002 reserves flag, brother Leigh (215 games) and parents Robyn and Wayne both heavily involved at the Kings. Despite playing alongside both brothers at various times, the 300-gamer has one regret. “Unfortunately the Lawson boys still haven’t managed to get all three in the one side,” he said. “I reckon (my parents) have missed a handful of games over the journey – I don’t think they’ve missed too many. Mum’s been huge and they’re both life members – and always there for support for me and my two brothers.” While the milestone may have seemed a bridge too far at one stage, the valiant Lawson has fought his way through injury and adversity to don the Kings’ guernsey for a 300th time, in a year which he believes may be the swansong to one of the club’s most celebrated careers. “I reckon this is the last year, I’ve had pretty ordinary injuries at the start of this year and fortunately I’ve been able to get to the big 300.”

DIVISION 3 EAST BURWOOD: The East Burwood Football Club has announced that Wayne Cripps will be finishing up as senior coach after the final game of season 2017. Wayne has been a club stalwart and closing in on 300 games is an amazing achievement. The committee, club members and supporters would like to thank him for taking on the coaching reins in an era that without doubt has been the hardest in our long history. Wayne took on the role knowing playing budgets would be slashed as the club looked to restructure and gets itself into a stronger financial position. Whilst we have all been disappointed in on field results we know he has at all times been a positive influence on the playing group. He has over the past few years done everything in his power to get the right outcomes for the club. East Burwood will be advertising soon and appointing a committee to go out and source the best coach we can get within our budget and for our current needs. This week sees Ferntree Gully make the trip to East Burwood Reserve. When the two sides met earlier in the year the game went right to the wire with Ferntree Gully claiming a last minute win. The Rams will be going all out to take the 4 points this time around.

DIVISION 3 PARK ORCHARDS: As we head to Boronia today for a must win game, we reflect on the fact that all three Sharks teams sit on top of their respective ladders. There is still an enormous amount of work to do and we can be certain that the committee, coaches and playing group will be doing everything they can to ensure that we stay there. Due to an ever growing injury list we went into the senior game last weekend with the youngest and least experienced senior side for quite some time. Notwithstanding this, we hardly missed a beat and accounted for East Burwood by 103 points. 18 of the 22 players representing the club were former Park Orchards juniors, underlining the fact that the senior club is providing a senior pathway for our current juniors and a place that some of our past junior players want to return to. Handley was dominant up forward with six goals and he was ably supported by Philp, Haythorne, Heyde and T. Feher. The D-Squad also had an emphatic win, beating East Burwood by 186 points. Hewitt was judged best on ground for his dash and driving runs and Raines, J. Nicholson and Valentino with seven were dominant in a great team performance. The U19’s accounted for the Rams with a 69 point win with Livingstone, Jacob and Kemp amongst the best. In the final round of netball games PO White drew against Wantirna South 25 all (Tomlins 18), PO Red beat Lilydale 24 to 15 (Buckland 14) and PO Black went down 22 to 38 to Mulgrave (Lunniss 12). Well done to all the girls this season and especially to the Red team who to finished on top of the ladder and will play finals for the first time. Our annual Domenerian Auction Night will be held on Saturday 19th August. This is our only fundraiser for the year so we’d love to see all Sharks members and supporters at this important event. Entry is $20 ($10 for Domenerian’s and players) with a HUGE $1,000 door prize and pizza all night. There will be lots of great items to bid on so RSVP Colin Caulfield at colincaulfield@bigpond.com or call him on 0409 047 694 to reserve a table or to donate auction items for the night. Go Sharks!

DIVISION 3 HEATHMONT: It was a weekend of mixed results for the club, with two of the netball teams securing spots in the finals in the coming weeks. The Under 19’s continued on their winning way. The DSquad had a dramatic win with a kick after the siren to clinch the win after being behind all day. Unfortunately the Seniors couldn’t do the same and went down to Scoresby and out of the five, having to win their last two matches and rely on other results falling their way to participate in the finals. Sunday was the second week of the Boys Junior finals, with 5 teams playing, U11D’s straight to the Grand Final, U13/14 into the Preliminary, it was a close one for the U12’s but they couldn’t get over the line so their final’s campaign has ended. First year to the club, the U16 girls won their finals match in a nail biter to move into the second week of Girls Finals. It’s all happening. A BIG thanks to the Under 19 parents who put on the Mexican Night last Saturday – the rooms were jumping!! WHAT’S ON: -- MAJOR RAFFLE $50/ticket drawn on September 24 – see Wendy Garland.

DIVISION 3 RINGWOOD: Last weekend we took on Boronia and both the Reserves and Seniors continued their good form making it seven wins on the trot each. The reserves were up against the top team and were involved in a low scoring first half which saw us a narrow lead. We slowly got on top in the third term and at the last break held a handy 2 goal lead and like previous weeks we finished full of running and ran out good winners to cement our place near the top of the ladder. The senior game was also a low scoring affair with neither side able to goal in the first quarter. We slowly got on top in the second quarter and posted a couple of majors to see us lead at half time and went on with it in the third quarter to establish a handy lead at the last break by 19 points. Like the first term the last one was a goalless quarter of football with both sides missing their chances in front of goal. It was another good overall performance by our boys with our defence proving hard to penetrate again only conceding the one goal for the day and the victory leaves us sitting second on the ladder. Socially tonight we are holding our major draw in the clubrooms and thank those who have work hard to ensure its a success and hope everyone in attendance enjoys the night. Today we travel up the mountain to take on South Belgrave and look forward to the challenges in front of us and hope our good form continues and we can come away with two more important victories.

DIVISION 3 TEMPLESTOWE: After two Home games, the Templestowe faithful will be on the road to the Bear Cave at the Basin this weekend. A great Round 16 at the Wharf starting with our U19’s hosting the Surrey Park Panthers. Our boys took the ascendency through 3 quarters in a close game but in the dying seconds of Q4 the Panthers scored quickly to take the win by 3 points. Our BOG was Callum Best and 5 single goal kickers. Celebrating his 200th Senior game in the Reserves that day was George “Skip” Sahinidis – a Premiership Captain and loved Club Legend. Our opposition, the Warrandyte Bloods, were kept to a total of 34 points in a good contest by a determined Sons outfit who won by 19 points. Nic “Magic” Phaedonos with 2 goals and BOG to Brad Riddle. The Seniors jumped the opposition early limiting their scoring to 10 points at half time going on to win by 37 points. 2 goals each to Matt Mariani, David Distefano and Matt Tempone. Judged BOG was the evergreen Paul Fiorenza whose enthusiasm and determination in the contest is to be applauded. Thanks to those that stayed back and helped George celebrate his milestone and to all those involved in the Electronic Scoreboard Project – now up and running.

DIVISION 3 SCORESBY: Back at home for the final 2 rounds of the season, and looking for some more victories, to clinch a finals berth. Hoping to see as many Scoresby faithful at these games as possible. Today we take on Chirnside Park, whom we lost to earlier in the year, and we are looking at reversing that result. Last week, out at the Hangar against Heathmont in windy conditions, it was a slow start, but a rev up from Willo at half time must have done the trick, with the boys running over the top and winning by a goal. That now makes it 7 wins in a row, and the first time since 2010. Jarrod Hicks played a good game, along with Scott Duncan. Heartbreak for the 2’s, getting done by less than a kick after the siren. Scott Jones was named best. Still two winnable games to come home with. The 19’s fought back in the second half, but were no match for the 2nd placed Heathmont who had winners all over the ground. Zac Ryan offered some run and was one of the best. Our Netballers last game is this Friday at Oxley against Mooroolbark – get out and cheer the girls on. Week 2 of the Junior Finals was a bit wet, but again a huge thanks to the core of people who keep putting their hand up for the club; helping on the gates, in the canteen or wherever need be.

DIVISION 4 FAIRPARK: Both Netball teams had great wins with the Premier Girls cementing the top of the ladder position with a 64 -34 win over Montrose. Alicia Hughes continued her goal scoring dominance with 36 goals and Jordan Lingard had 28. Div 2 Girls had a great team game to get a 48 – 31 point win out scoring Lilydale in every quarter. Kate Woodstock was our highest point scorer with 17 while Alicia Taylor had 11 and Nicole Neagle had 3. Our Saturday unfortunately was as successful as we took the trip over the mountain to Silvan. The wind was strong and our Reserves got off to a good start. After being 27 – 10 at the first break we swapped end and Silvan took control and at half time we were down by 1 point. At the final break we had taken the lead again but with to many point, not goals in the quarter Silvan was able to kick away with the wind in the last quarter. We lost 66 -46 in a good game of football. Then what a game took place as our Seniors had a very similar game to the Reserves. At the first break we had a 36 to 17 point lead, but at the main break we were down by a goal. Scoring was very hard with both teams kicking lots of points. This unfortunately continued for us in the 3rd kicking more points than goals and only having a 5 point. Then once again with the wind, Silvan was able to kick away and we went down 98 – 82 point. Upcoming Events: 200 Club (Reverse Raffle) This Sunday 13th August Vote Count Night – 8th September Presentation Night – 15th September

DIVISION 4 FOREST HILL: For the second game in a row the wind made scoring difficult which meant the games were more of a low scoring arm wrestle. The Reserves enjoyed another win meaning they remain a game and a large amount of percentage clear of the second placed team. With only two rounds to go they have secured a top 2 finish and a double chance in the finals. The seniors however went down to a well determined Surrey Park. Not much separated the teams all day as the differences at the breaks were 1, 1, 2 goals however the opposition converted better in the terrible conditions to grab the 4 points. We are now in third place on the ladder 1 game behind second with a healthier percentage and have our destiny in our own hands as we remain in contention for a top two spot. Our Netballers are also gearing up for finals with all three sides poised for post-season action. The Green side lost by 4 but stay top of the ladder with a round to go. The White team lost by 11 and now sit in third with a round left. The Zebras side went down by 4 points to Glen Waverley in their last regular round and finished second on the ladder. They will now take on Glen Waverley again in the first week of the finals. It would be great to get as many Zebras down to support the girls. Our Juniors also continued their finals. The Under 12s have booked a spot in the Grand Final, whilst the Under 17s lost but have the double chance. The Under 14 Girls had the nail-biter, holding on to win by a point and now take on the top side for the coveted fast track to the Grand Final. Make sure to check the clubs social media for details on where and when each Zebra side is playing and get down and support anyone donning the green and white in finals. The finals buzz was all around as we hosted Junior finals over the last two weeks. We trust that all teams and visitors to our club enjoyed their experience at Zebraland. Thanks also to the volunteers that assisted over both weekends and made sure our club was well presented to those that visited. This week we return to our home ground as we play host to Silvan. Whilst both Silvan sides don’t have a great deal to play for, as last weeks experience showed us, no side in this division can be taken lightly. The Cats are capable of an upset and have kicked some reasonable scores this season. We need to get that winning feeling back as we strive to finish off the season with wins to ensure we give ourselves the best chance in the finals in 2017. Our finals campaign begins today. Go Zebras!

The Reserves kicked off what was a windy and cold afternoon with a gritty win. With a bit of experience back in the line-up this week, the Cats clawed their way in front in the final term to take out a gutsy win. Three goals to Keegan Hewitt and two to Bryce Litchfield had them both in the best players, along with Anthony Giuliano, Angus McCollam, Justin Taylor and Tim Martin. The Seniors also had a see-sawing battle against Fair Park, with another game that wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t decided until deep into the last quarter. A 5 goal to 2 last quarter saw the Cats prevail by 16 points and the 2007 premiership team joined in the raucous singing of the song in the rooms after the win. Luke Beddome led the goalscorers with 3, which rightly saw him in the best, along with Aaron Rowe, Jarrod Rowe, Andrew Knight, Jarryd Dietzel and Rhys Spooner, who celebrated his 100th game in style. This week we are on the road to Forest Hill Reserve, to take on the finalsbound Zebras, who represent a great challenge to both sides. Good luck to everyone today. #CATSFOOTY, Go Cats!

DIVISION 4 SURREY PARK: The under 19’s won in absolute thriller, with Weshin Zeyto kicking the go-ahead goal with a few moments left in the game. Finn Hanna was again excellent through the midfield, whilst Lachlan Martain was able to slot a few home. Paul Collopy & James Marshall look to have benefited immensely from their time in the seniors as they lead the charge for a premiership run. The reserves put in a solid effort against top of the table Forrest Hill, losing by a couple of goals. Harry Cook returned from his international tour, forming the ‘triple-threat’ up forward (consisting of D.Hauser and M.McBride), who all managed to kick goals. Ben Elbaz and Tom Ross were crucial in the stoppages, as was Sam Pentney, who returned after a long time on the sidelines with a lower back injury. The seniors took a massive scalp, and look to end the season with a long winning streak. Bede Briscomb and Chris Allen teamed up again down back, with Chris playing his first senior game after work commitments in Sydney. Where at the other end of the ground it was Kane Henden and Graeme Johns linking up together. The seniors look to take this win into this Saturday against another tough opposition in Donvale. Make sure to come to the Reverse Draw tonight, in what is a huge night for the club, Go Panthers!

DIVISION 4 KILSYTH: The Under 19s kicked the day off at Pinks, with a tough game against a Div 3 opponent in Boronia. Unfortunately, the boys were unable to compete, going down by 171 points. Only one goal was kicked for the boys, and that came from Ma Clavant, an U17s player filling in! Best on: Mi Clavant, Scheepers, Shepherd, Stevens and Hams. The Reserves then took on Coldstream for the second time this year, going down by 8 points. It was a close game all the way through, but some costly mistakes in the last quarter cost the boys the game. Hicksman kicked 3, Zaicz and Donaldson both with 1. Best on: Spiers, Hincksman, P Malan, Russel, Grylls and Zaicz. The Senior boys got themselves back into the top 4 with a 16-point win over Coldy.
