BIG V PRIDE Last week in the Amateur Footballer, Ryan Colbert wrote a terrific article reliving his experiences playing in Big V teams over the past few years.

One could feel the pride in his words as he talked of the enjoyment he has derived representing the Big V. In most of the matches he describes, the result has come down to the pride in wearing the Big V jumper and representing the VAFA. These matches are about connecting with a variety of people who all have one thing in common – playing for the love of the game. So many times this intangible spirit has got the team over the line.

My first recognition of this spirit was when I headed down to Sandringham to watch the Big V take on the VFA in 1982. Foolishly I had assumed we would get thumped playing against household names like Fred Cook and Billy Swan (father of Dane). In an incredible match, the VAFA came from eleven points down at three quarter time to kick ten final quarter goals and run over the VFA for a shock win. The spirit of that win, and I’m sure countless others before, continue with those who represent our Association today.

Already this season the Big V jumper has been worn with pride when our players played against the Eastern Football League at both senior and Premier C – Division 4 level. We were no match for the EFL in the curtain raiser, though our senior boys lifted in the final stanza in another come-from-behind victory to spoil the EFL’s 50th birthday party. A lot of the bonding that fired this win took place last year in Shepparton and again

in Ireland at season end, when the boys became a tight-knit bunch. It was no surprise to me that the young men in the Premier C – Div 4 game who had also been to Ireland stayed around after their game to watch their touring teammates.

Each year, each game begins a new friendship.

In the AF last week, the U23 squad to play Western Australia was announced and today the senior squad to play AFL Sydney is published.

The U23 match is scheduled for next Sunday at Sportscover Area at 1:30pm. Unfortunately due to the WA public holiday coming early, our players will have to forego a VAFA match to play.

Only those who want to represent the Big V will be selected.

Whilst the competition takes a rest over the Queen’s Birthday weekend, the Big V head to Sydney for its match against AFL Sydney at Blacktown. Four years ago, the game was a cliff hanger, with the Big V scraping home by 5 points.

It is little wonder that the AFL Players Association have requested the AFL look into representative football. Why should the Ammos have all the fun?

Last Sunday at Sportscover Arena a bigger than usual crowd was entertained in the Premier match between Collegians and Old Scotch. This weekend we have De La Salle and Old Trinity, followed next weekend by the Big V. Keep these family friendly 1.20 starts in mind when planning your Sundays.

NAMESAKES The feature event over thirty-two hundred metres at Flemington last Saturday was named after Andrew Ramsden, who served 21 years on the committee of the VRC. As the field raced down past Chiquita Lodge, the other Andrew Ramsden, who has spent even longer in a green and gold footy jumper, was creating havoc at Bulleen. The Greens had an absorbing tussle with St Bede’s/Mentone Tigers, but in the end, beat them on the Daley for the second year on end. Gabe Hamilton again impressed for the Ts as did recruit Dan Chamberlain. But it was the Woodrow Medallist Brendan Iezzi who provided the midfield inspiration that allowed the oldest colt in the business, the big fella, Rambo plenty of opportunities. Given the chance, he rarely disappoints and he didn’t this day. The Brindisians’ trademark inaccuracy cost it in the first three terms and when Trinity rolled in the last, the efforts of Pat Kean, and youngsters Cam Hansen and Luke Hulse were not rewarded.

The other Jack Watts had to wait until after sundown to amass thirty-five touches while wandering like Moses in the desert, without opponent in the Demons’ backline. Earlier in the afternoon, under the spires, Jack Watts had a similar number of touches across half back, half forward and on the ball. Most of these were contested. While Jonno Nash and Josh Caldow were the scoring mainstays, it was again Jack Watts who powered the Varsity to a win over Old Carey. The Panthers began brightly and established an early lead. They looked winners until mid way through the third term when Blues blasted back to lead by 21 points at the last turn.

There may have been question marks about their ability to run out the fourth quarter, but not this day as they booted six goals in the stanza to post a big win. Ben Smithwick and Adam Josephs were again prominent for the vanquished and Damien Yze was a master converter despite the work of Al Austin and his fellow defenders.

On 3 July, 1863, Maj. Gen. George Pickett led a infantry charge on the Union Army of the Potomac’s II Corps near Gettysburg, Pennsylvania.

It failed. Last Saturday, at Glenhuntly Oval, De La Salle’s Maj. Gen. Sam “Frankie” Pickett roamed the forward line for three quarters and picked up possessions at will. In the final term, he kicked 2

six straight goals to put Caulfield Grammarians to the sword. The first half was a cracking affair, with DLS recruit John “1F” Grifiths booting six in a classic small forward effort. He was front and centre more times than Bert and Patti and it paid dividends. Nick Roberts has had a summer split between the gym and the dining room, or so it appears, yet his speed has suffered none. Despite their work, DLS led by just three goals at the long break, with James Shanahan, Tom O’Sullivan and Declan Reilly all prominent for the home team.

After half-time, the Fieldsmen upped the ante big time, slamming on three goals in quick succession to take the lead and get the crowd buzzing again.

Then it happened in a hurry. “You call that a knife: This is a knife” came to mind as De La smashed the accelerator to the floor and smashed Caulfield to smithereens to restore the lead and up the ante again. Were it not for some wasteful kicking, it might have been ugly. That nightmare became a reality in the final term as De La straightened up and kicked another nine. It was a performance of remarkable brutality against a team that is 0 and 5 yet is still very capable.

Old Xaverians flexed its muscle at home against St Bernard’s. The Red and Blacks were clinical in the first half, but ruthless in the third term, when it put the game beyond any doubt. With Michael Darvell dominant through the middle and an in-form forward trio of Pat Ambrose, Damian Lynch and Brendan Goss, the Snow Dogs couldn’t match it.

When the visitors went forward, they hit the wall, with a talented and swarming defence blanketing goal threats Andrew Merrington and Brendon George. Tom and Simon Caven plugged away with unflinching heart for the Bernies, but Xavs had too many winners. Several Xavs’ fans expressed pleasure at the debut of Dan Harangozo, who showed great promise.

Sunday’s clash at the Ponderosa saw Collegians too strong for Old Scotch. Missing a few of its frontliners, the Cards were always going to find this a tough assignment. To be sure, the Lions fielded a few irregulars themselves, though their list runs deeper than most, if not all other clubs.

Courtney Hylton again proved a strength across TODAY SELECTIONS IN BOLD Old Carey v Collegians Old Scotch v Caulfield Gramm St Bedes / Mentone Tigers v Old Xaverians St Bernards v University Blues De La Salle v Old Trinity

half-back and Cameron Lee showed effective dash all afternoon. The Redmen had drive from Shane Neaves and a strong showing from Will Strange, though he lost his partner in crime Mark Passador before the break. The reigning premier eschewed accuracy, the main culprit being Nick Sautner, who finished with 2.6 and ended his day in the hands of the physios. Jono Dixon was in fine touch, James Kondarovswkis and Lachlan Ferguson all dash. For the Cards, Sam Thompson was strong in defence, and young guns Gene “Dancing Machine” van den Broek and Nick Jamieson very effective players.

Despite being headed at one stage after a Cardinal spurt, the Lions always looked comfortable and doubled their opponents’ shots on the afternoon.

THIS WEEK: The Panthers are at home to the Lions in an absolute must-win for Old Carey. It’s a very tough assignment, all or nothing at all for a club with finals’ aspirations. Old Scotch licks its wounds and gets a visit from the Fieldsmen in Steven Lawrence’s return to Camberwell. I can’t see the Cards showing their old mate any mercy, but they wouldn’t want to underestimate them either in

this danger game. The Brindisians return home but know that one of the few times they have lost at home has been to the incoming Xaverians. The Red and Blacks should win here in a tough game, but will need to adapt to the smaller ground and the inevitable winter conditions. St Bernard’s take on Uni Blues in the “Bernie Angel/Boomer Baumgartner Cup”. This will be an engaging romp, with both teams desperate for the points. Who stops Jack Watts? The free-entry Sunday fixture features De La Salle and Old Trinity. The Greens customarily play well on the wick, but so too do their opponents. On last week’s form, the Bellers look too strong. Matt Moore, Leigh Harrison and Brett Eddy are going to be returning soon and the T’s will be a wishin’ and a hopin’ and a prayin’ it’s not this week.

PRELUDE TO A DREAM Who doesn’t love a magical ending in sport?

Miraculous victories against the odds, improbable wins that become the stuff of legend. Just last week we saw Chelsea grind out its first ever Champion’s League title, Port Adelaide snatched a surreal two-point win over North and Aussie golfer Rhein Gibson became the Cinderella-boy with a 16-under-par 55. A previously unheralded bay colt I’ll Have Another is on the cusp of greatness after winning the Kentucky Derby and Preakness, twice edging out the favourite. He now heads to the Belmont Stakes hoping for that near-impossible holy grail of racing, the Triple Crown. Hasn’t been done since 1978 and legions of everyday punters will be cheering on the dream. See where I’m going with this? Sometimes the underdog – not necessarily overburdened with a stellar pedigree or perfectly timed preparation - can achieve the impossible. It takes endurance, cunning, finishing power, buckets of luck and the ability to bring the hammer down.

Old Brighton showed what positive thinking and miles of Leukoplast can achieve when it sent out a battered but belligerent side against Old Ivanhoe to come up with its season’s first win. Hoers Heta and Steele controlled the ball in the air early, but ‘Tonner Portelli moved into the ruck where he brought the Brighton runners into the game; James North (3) was prominent around the ball, Hendra and Perrett soaking up first use. The 49-point win was a much-needed confidence boost for Old Brighton, which now needs to build momentum. Adam Baldwin was best for Old Ivanhoe, kicking three goals.

Oakleigh remains winless after losing to St Kevin’s by 55 points at home, but showed encouraging signs despite a ravaged list.

Without key position players Goldsmith (ankle), Ott (unavailable) and Holden (returned from whence he came), the Krushers fought 4

valiantly, Tim Doherty their best while Dowd brothers Pat and Ben shone for SKOB and Henry Parkes booted four as the tri-colours continue their methodical early-season steamrolling of all and sundry.

Uni Blacks cruised over the Westgate Bridge and into Werribee where they exerted supreme control to run out confident 44 point victors.

Major goal scorers were Huw Lacey (4) Jordan Foster and Adam Cook (3 apiece), while Tigers Chris Molivas and Aaron Taylor scored four each.

Old Melburnians reminded AJAX how tough the step up in grade can be; these two hadn’t met since the B grade relegation game of 2007 when the Jackas were ushered out. OMs dominated for three quarters, most impressive were youngsters Nic Daish and ruckman Nick De Steiger with his awesome vertical leap and funny little top-knot. Turnovers cost the depleted Jacka side who trailed by 50 at the last break but a heartier last quarter effort produced 6 goals to reduce the margin to 25 points. Richie Simon replaced injured forward Fayman and kicked five, while Routman (3) ignited with his trademark forward delivery.

For the victors, Adam Marangon set up many forward moves to goal, happily received by the versatile Cam Beck who snagged five.

The Sharks were in form early, hosting nearneighbours Old Haileybury with good run out of the centre, but the Bloods’ defensive unit staunched the flow, refusing to let Beauy get away and in fact led by a point at quarter TODAY SELECTIONS IN BOLD Oakleigh v AJAX Old Haileybury v Werribee Districts Old Melburnians v Old Ivanhoe St Kevins v Beaumaris University Blacks v Old Brighton

time. OH maintained possession in the second, kicking five goals to nil which effectively set up the win going into the last break 34 points to the good. Unsurprisingly the Sharks rallied for a final crack, fighting out a gutsy last term to fall by 14 points. The Bloods’ dominant combo of Lillie in the ruck with the class of Seccull hitting up prime targets Meehan (5) and Coleman (3) helped bring the Shark’s winning streak to an end. Best for the home side were Callan Buckley and Alex Bennett.

THIS WEEK As the field threatens to split apart into two, we should see some bona fide fighting spirit revealed amongst the haves and have-nots. It may not necessarily come from where it ‘should.’

Pleased with the win but smarting from a final quarter fade-out, OMs at home should punish

Old Ivanhoe. Werribee under strain should be overpowered by the Bloods at McKinnon Reserve, while most would assume Uni Blacks a safe bet at home against Old Brighton. St Kevin’s look more likely to have the wood over the now-vulnerable Sharks, while the Jackas on the rebound should extend the Krushers’ losing streak at least another week. But as we all know, footy’s a funny game with the occasional fairytale finish. That’s what makes it so special.

Expect an upset or two this round, in particular Oakleigh to bring home their first win.

PREMIER C

Simon Fuller

PEGS SIGNALS ITS INTENT As the Premier C season steadily propels itself towards the one-third mark, we are starting to see some separation on the ladder. But whether this is the point where we see the top sides pull away from the rest of the combatants, or whether the logjam is re-established, remains to be seen.

The Rovers have hosted the top two sides in C section in the last two weeks and the results have not been pretty: five goals for; 53 goals against. This time it was the Eagles that had a percentage-booster, easing the margin out past a hundred in the third quarter, before running out winners by 134 points. The Bortolotto brothers and Rooey Crosbie combined for sixteen goals, while Trent and Jaz Carlson had their best games of the season. It’s like a broken record, but you’ve got to hand it to Leigh Fletcher, who continues to do a fantastic job every week. Karl Amon was a welcome inclusion from the Sandringham Dragons with three goals and the Rovers are likely to find a senior guernsey somewhere for him, should he have a week off from the TAC Cup. Tom Youl was also prominent in his 200th game for the club.

Monash and Parkdale clashed out at Clayton and, with Matthew Boland swapping his Collingwood stripes for a Vultures jumper, the Blues’ defence was always going to have a big task. As it turned out, Boland was the difference, bagging eight in a 26-point victory for the visitors. Parkdale held the edge at halftime, on the back of some straight kicking compared to some Asher inaccuracy. And after the resumption of play in the second half, the Vulture established a commanding lead, which was enough to hold off Monash in the end. Matthew Ryan stood up for the Vultures in a terrific performance and it 6

was McKenzie and Ree-Goodings who did their utmost to try to keep the Blues in the contest.

For Rupo, it was the wrong result at Wright Road, PEGS capping off a good month of footy at home with a pretty surprising 94-point victory, which will no doubt make those sides above the Grammar sit up and take notice. David Forrest contributed five goals for PEGS, to make it fourteen from the last three starts, while Chris Goullet was outstanding and Sean Towner had another great game. The game was effectively over at halftime, with Rupo’s lack of a consistent avenue to goal proving to be a massive problem. Matthew Smith was their only multiple goalscorer and never stopped trying.

With Mazenod coming off a good win, the battle at Fitzroy was earmarked as a potential danger game for the Roys. The teams traded goalless quarters in the first half, though the Roys responded to their barren first quarter with seven in the second to set up the win. Vansittart was given too much latitude and Rory Angiolella was a consistent target in a balanced attack. The home side converted its dominance of general play on the scoreboard in the fourth, to run out comfortable winners. Seven multiple goalkickers was a feature of a polished Fitzroy display. Rees Thomas had another big game for Mazenod.

The Wellers remain undefeated, with a comprehensive win over the Bears at the Barnyard.

initiative, with three late goals meaning they headed into the rooms at halftime with the lead and all the momentum. Rick Brockwell moved the magnets around in the forward line and the Bears responded with two quick goals to start the third quarter, pulling it back to an eight point deficit. But from there, it was fourteen on the trot for Camberwell, as they put the wounded Bears to the sword, with 25 entries into the arc in the final quarter alone. A three-pronged attack, featuring Killworth, Duke and ‘Juggas’ Eade produced twelve goals for the Wellers. Tim Cusack continued his sensational 2012 form for Banyule.

Round 6 sees the Rovers heading to Central Reserve in a battle of two teams in a game Mazenod should be good enough to win.

one to pick, as both teams are in good form of late. With little to separate them, I’ll go with the home side to take the points. Two teams going in opposite directions meet at Marcellin College and it’s impossible to go past the Eagles in their current form. Rupo are back at Salesian against Banyule, with both teams very keen to bounce back from sub-par displays. I’ll go with Rupo in a tight one. Finally, we have Fitzroy against Old Camberwell, in what may be the most anticipated game of the year thus far. While it’s tough to go against the Wellers, I think the Roys will give them their first loss for 2012.

DIVISION 1

Darren Dawson

PIRATES KEEP ON PLUNDERING ON It is all beginning to fall into place very nicely for Peninsula Old Boys. The Pirates, unbeaten through the first five rounds, are demonstrating a ruthless streak that was missing for much of last season. (Four of their victories have been by 75 points or greater). Instructively, it is not just down on the Peninsula where they are inflicting defeat on their hapless opponents. These Pirates don’t mind travelling, and following their pitiless dismissal of Glen Eira last week, they are rightly beginning to believe that 2012 could be their year. And who would argue? After a fairly even first term, the Pirates piled on seven in the second quarter to effectively extinguish whatever hopes the visiting Saints may have harboured of causing a boilover. Although Glen Eira outscored their hosts in the third, Peninsula were really just going through the motions after half-time and recorded a comfortable 75-point win. Their free-wheeling style of play resulted in an amazing spread of thirteen different goalkickers. This statistic is just another reason why the Pirates are now firm premiership fancies.

Obviously stung by their surprise loss the previous week, Ormond caused an upset of their own by downing Whitefriars on their own patch at Friar Park. The Friars were left to rue a slow start, in which they conceded eight first term goals, six of which were amazingly booted

by Dwain Bailey. All of a sudden, Ormond were the best part of eight goals up at the main break.

However, Whitefriars were not going to go down without a fight, and fight back they did, with six in the third to be only 20 points down at the last break. The final quarter was a humdinger, with Friars scoring the first three goals to make it a two-point game, but the Monders hung on grimly to reinvigorate their season with a thrilling five-point win. Best for Ormond were 10

defender Boyd Upstill and Wayne Cove, whilst for the Friars it was big man Jean Daou and little man Emille Abdallah who led the way.

North Old Boys-St Patrick’s scored an important win over fellow finals aspirants Old Mentonians in an entertaining match at Gillon. NOBs snatched the lead just prior to three-quarter time and were never headed from that point on, despite kicking a wasteful 3-6 in the final term. Tim Brady and Matt Keown were best for NOBs, whilst flanker Jack Janssen and defender Nick Imlach were amongst the Panthers’ better performers on the day. This win by NOBSPC elevates them to second place, and they are now a realistic threat for the double-chance.

There are not too many better places to be watching footy on a fine Saturday afternoon than by the Yarra at the Woodfull-Miller Oval.

With the Melbourne High School peering over the ground imperiously, I was fortunate enough to take in these most pleasing of surroundings as MHSOB notched up their second win of the season by defeating the winless Williamstown.

(The half-time tea and scones were also well received!) The Unicorns got off to a flyer, with the first six goals, and that early break was to prove decisive, even though the CYs managed to pull themselves back into the contest. The visitors clawed their way to within nine points just before half-time, but two buzzer-beating goals gave the Unicorns a more comfortable buffer, which they maintained for the rest of the match.

After the previous week’s heroics, St. John’s came crashing back to earth with a thud at Como Park. Centre half-forward Callum Wood was in excellent form with seven goals, and was ably assisted by Paul Ellis with 4. Old Geelong showed no mercy, and gained some valuable percentage in a 93-point thrashing of the young JOCs. Preview: With their tails up, the Monders will be looking to build on last week’s win when they host the Unicorns today, and I see no reason why they cannot make it two on the trot. Despite their occasional troubles on the road, NOBSPC should not have too many difficulties in accounting for St John’s at Doveton, whilst Old Geelong will be too strong for Glen Eira. The match of the day sees Whitefriars travelling to Mordialloc to face Old Mentonians. Both of these teams will

be looking to return to the winners’ list, but I think the Panthers may just hold an edge at home. The Pirates are in marauding form, and will be looking to inflict even more pain on their bitter cross-bay rivals Williamstown CYMS at the Fearon.

Smokie says: With the Pirates out in front early, the jockeying for an all-important top-two position has already begun in earnest. I can’t help thinking that last week’s narrow defeat will prove very costly for Whitefriars in terms of the double-chance.

Rich Hummerston

FQF FQF - Fourth-quarter fadeouts – Around footy clubs, that double-hyphened phrase is as welcome as Lord Voldermort at Hogwart’s.

Well unfortunately for players, coaches and fans alike, an undoubtedly explicit laden version of the aforementioned was mentioned at all five games this week.

As the injury lists grow and the emergency list dwindles, the once minuscule doubts about the shortcomings of the past pre-season turn into sleep-depriving life-encompassing issues.

Every torn hamstring, every cramped calf and every surrendered lead encourages the dreadful “what if” in the minds of our beloved coaches.

Plans to implement a forward press in next week’s game make way with searching for twin back pockets and a centre half forward. The dream of a finals berth is lost in the ever-rising sea of fourth quarter fade-outs and inaccuracy plagued halves.

And it’s only R6.

Even the most nonchalant of Division 2 supporters will have identified a worrying trend at the South Melbourne camp over the past 2 weeks, as they, for the second consecutive week managed for forfeit a 4 goal, final term buffer. With club stalwart Andy Hannan marking the pill as if he had borrowed the mitts of Stewie Loewe for the day and Elliot Costello finding possessions at will, the Bloods managed to build a presumably unassailable lead going into the final term. Wayward kicking and flaring tempers soon had harrowing memories of the previous week’s capitulation flooding back into the minds of the South Melbourne players and as if in an attempt to better last weeks efforts in the deplorable stakes, the Swans handed St Leo’s five final term goals, and the four premiership points. Ryan Harding and Declan O’Hehir were sensational for Emmaus St Leo’s. Upon request, no South Melbourne players will be named in the best this week.

Prahran-Assumption seems to have put its early season woes behind it, notching up its fourth win in a row against Old Paradians at Garvey Oval.

With hardly a kick separating the two sides all day, it was yet again a dominant final term from Prahran-Assumption that saw them over the line by 38 points. Competition leading goal kicker Adam Sleight was instrumental in the final quarter ascendancy, adding three goals to his total of four and first gamer Liam Hunt impressed those that matter. For the home team, David Boundy and Luke Dore were among the best.

Boasting the largest second-half fade out of the week, St Mary’s Salesian have joined the seemingly now fashionable second half fadeouts fold, going down to Eltham by 106 points, despite being at a forearms length at the big break. Travelling from one of the VAFA’s smallest grounds to the arguably the largest, fitness was always going to be a concern for the Saints, add Sam Richardson and his seven goals and the poise of Bryan Galvin and it’s an almost impossible task. For the Saints it was captain Brett Gatehouse, Nick Baum and Sid Jones who ensured the margin wasn’t doubled.

It wasn’t until the last that Monash could pull away from an inspired and resilient La Trobe University, slotting six majors to run away 29-point victors.

Exchanging blows all day; neither side could pull away in a scrappy affair at East Caulfield Reserve.

With only four points separating the two sides at the last break, a disappointed Monash coach Jock McDonald unleashed one of the more memorable tirades, with reports it was heard by an elderly couple at a popular Camberwell eatery. Impressive final quarter efforts from Kye Cherian and captain Matthew Fletcher ensured the spiel wasn’t repeated at game’s end. For the travelling team in La Trobe, Thomas Harding and Bart Thompson joined Dale Mackie in the best.

Therry Penola were another victim of the 4th quarter fade out, going down to competition leaders in Bulleen Templestowe by 37 despite trailing by a mere 7 points at the last break. With little more than a bee’s appendage separating the two sides all day, a potentially unlikely victory for the lions loomed. Unfortunately for the travelling side, Bulleen Templestowe had the legs to ensure victory and the spotless season maintained.

Kristian Cherbakof slotted seven in a best afield performance for the Bullants. Jarrod Egglestone likewise for the Lions.

Christiano, the friendly Italian accountant had an incredibly successful maiden week of tipping, had it not been for South Melbourne’s capitulation, he would have tipped the card. Accordingly, I have wandered on down to his cubicle again this week for some much needed guidance.

He predicts Bulleen Templestowe to keep their perfect season alive with a comfortable win over Old Paradians. The Monash Gryphons will win comfortably against St Leo’s while Therry Penola should take the points against the students.

South Melbourne won’t get the chance to blow a lead against Eltham for they’ll never have one and Prahran Assumption will account for St Mary’s Salesian at Toorak Park.

DIVISION 3

Nick Wynne

SMOTHER Tearjerker, shadow lurker, wonder worker, reach a bit further. Will you by any chance?

Remember the olive branch? Just a word of advice, because as we all know, what goes around, comes around.

Hayden Thorpe sang that the “end comes too soon, it comes too soon” and that’s exactly what the Aquinas boys were thinking in their game against Hawthorn. In an impressive display, the Bloods put together their first four quarter performance for the year and Hawthorn was no equal. Hawthorn will be disappointed with another crushing defeat and will need to reach a bit further to find a win. It was such an enjoyable win that Aquinas big guns Messrs Morrison-Storey and Perret decided to continue to kick around long into the evening. It wasn’t until the next morning when they were roused by the U/9 exclamations of ‘holy mackerel’ or words to that effect that they were moved on.

Ivanhoe went on their merry way, notching up another win against Elsternwick. Again without Skull Christian and with fiery Al Patey doing a substantial amount of time on the pine, it was quite the scalp for the Hoes who have now only dropped one game and sit well within reach of a finals berth. It was a dynamic second half from Ivanhoe that split the two sides. It must have been a solid team effort as Ashleigh Close, who slotted eight, didn’t even manage to wander into the best. For Elsternwick, it was back to the Nepean hwy Macca’s for a debrief and re-evaluation of Season 2012. Apparently some home truths were raised over a banana thickshake or two and the best laid plans for the year have been documented on the back of a Big Mac wrapper. But maybe the problem lies within that wrapper?

Richmond bounced back after a below par 16

game last week to beat Power House by plenty. Power House fought hard all day and eight minutes into the last quarter found them leading by a goal, but they collapsed like a House of cards in the end. Fortunately for the Snakes, the coaching staff had taken control and made a few wise moves that resulted in a comfortable victory. Seb Angus was again brilliant kicking six while Paul Edwards matched him for the House.

It was the clash of the titans at St Francis Xavier College and a huge crowd gathered to watch the top of the table clash. The X-men players must have been sleeping in a bed of nails all week, because they jumped out of the blocks and stunned Yarra Valley. The Bushrangers managed to fight their way back though and in an arm wrestle ended up winning by four points. ‘You’re my boy blue’ Blewonski was brilliant in his first game of senior footy and Coach Drew, who donned the boots for the first time this year, was inspirational for the Bushies.

Forget now, how many must I forget now, how many must I forget? For the Westbourne Warriors it’s getting to the stage where they will be asking themselves this question over and over. After being demoted from Division 2 last year, they have only snaffled the points in one game from five. This week it was an in form UHS-VU who took the four points from them.

Uni High dominated from beginning to end using Westbourne as a plaything, rag dolling them throughout the day.

It was another draw for Division Three this weekend - amazing stuff! In old football parlance, drawing a game is like kissing your TODAY SELECTIONS IN BOLD Albert Park v Aquinas OC UHS-VU v Power House Richmond Central v Old Westbourne Ivanhoe

sister. and at the moment, some Divvy 3 sides are at a family dinner dance and everywhere they turn, they’re staring relatives in the face.

But alas, even in the dim lights, that is no excuse to lock lips. Who will be next?? Albert Park will be kicking themselves with another inaccurate week in front of the sticks costing them dearly.

The fact that they had a 20 point lead at three quarter time wouldn’t have helped the burning feeling inside. After the game, I saw all 44 players vanish one by one, turning invisible in attempts to avoid a spray from their respective coaches.

Aquinas over Albert Park and Elsternwick will get a much needed win over the Hawks.

DIVISION 4

BREAKAWAY Five weeks in and there now appears to be a few brackets forming among teams in this competition. The top three that many predicted would feature right at the top are beginning to break away from the pack and fight out a battle for the double chance at the business end of the season. The bottom two right now might possibly remain the bottom two and it’s just a matter of whether or not they will pinch any wins off teams above them. Then, you could throw a blanket over the middle tier, which will sprint to the line like the peloton in the Tour de France, fighting for the last position in the top four.

Spencer nailed five goals to keep the Tigers undefeated. For the Sharks David Bennett was one of only a few shining lights after a lacklustre performance by the highly rated Eley Park outfit.

As we almost conclude the first third of the season, the writing is well and truly on the wall for many teams. Whether you’re up and about or down and out after this week’s fixture is completed, we will all know the path your side is headed on for season 2012.

The competition’s cellar dwellers went toe to toe on Saturday at Koonung Reserve and the gap at the bottom couldn’t be wider. Manningham, who were winless, pulverised the hapless Synners by a whopping 109 points. It’s hard to see light at the end of the tunnel for Chadstone after this week’s crushing loss. Many thought that they might finally break their losing drought against the Cobras but they were never in the contest after quarter time. Twin towers Tarek Moughanie (11) and Scott McPherson (7) combined for mammoth eighteen goals. Cisco George and Keith Biggs fought admirably all day for the visitors and Nick Boothman nailed three majors.

In the first Battle of Brunswick for some time the Bulls hosted the Magpies in a colossal battle that went down to the wire. The seesawing affair included several lead changes but Wests held on in the end to take the bragging rights.

Dane Sisic kicked four goals for the away side in a commanding performance, whilst Bill Irving and Mick Handscombe won plenty of the ball in the middle. Adam Jeffrey was the brilliant for North Brunswick and Davor Lucevic continued his blistering start to the season with another four-quarter effort.

Another loss for Mt Lilydale has made any chance of a 2013 return to Division 3 very difficult.

The Rams hosted Point Cook on Saturday in a massive game for the football club. However, the Bulldogs made the trip to Lilydale with a message to send to the rest of the competition – they will challenge any side on any day this season. Jordan Lampi was everywhere once again for Point Cook. For the home side, Max Hampton’s four goals kept the Rams in the contest and Greg Finkemeyer fought valiantly all day.

The boys from the peninsula are now five from five for season 2012 after putting Eley Park to the sword in front of a parochial home crowd.

The game was in the balance at half time before the Tigers booted ten goals to two in a second half demolition. Luke Fitzsimmons and Ben Price were impressive for the victors and James

Swinburne Uni bounced back from last week’s

disappointing loss to Point Cook with an almighty bang against Box Hill North. The Razorbacks were out for vengeance and made their presence felt early with a nine goal lead heading in to the main break. The Demons added only one more goal to their tally, as the second half got very ugly. Dan Hassablla provided plenty of run for the students and Chris Kilmartin’s five goals highlighted his dominance of the forward line.

Dan Penny added another four majors to his goal tally but unfortunately he didn’t have much support from any one else on the day.

Today: South Mornington hosts North Brunswick in a game that should see the Tigers undefeated start to the season continue. Mt Lilydale has a chance to redeem itself against Box Hill North, which is terribly out of form but on its home deck. Swinburne Uni is back on the winners’ list and could make things really ugly out at Jordan Reserve against the winless Synners.

West Brunswick is fresh off a derby win and could inflict some pain against the Manningham Cobras. In the game of the round, Eley Park hosts Point Cook, which this year is winning on the road.

RETRO

Geoff Reilley Hansen, Chamberlain, Reed, Castricum, Stanley, Hanley (Mazenod).

12 MONTHS AGO – 2011 In Division 2 St John’s Old Collegians showed why they were fancied by some to be capable of going all the way with a very impressive performance over South Melbourne Districts, 27.10 to 12.10. A 7 goal lead at half time was never likely to be reduced with the JOC’s in fine form and exactly 10 goals to the fore at the end was a satisfying result for the winners.

Best – Gaget, Scott (3), Pickering, Abela (5), Costas (3), Dyker, (St Johns) and Hannan, Lambert, Ray (5), Butler, Taylor, Byrt (South Districts).

Prahran Assumption firmed as favourites in Division 3 as they dissected Kew 19.18 to 8.7. From 9.5 to 1.2 first quarter, the two blues’ machine was unstoppable.

Best – Musster (3), Donohoo, Chapman, Dempsey, Bremner, Sheen (Prahran) and Donaldson, Brough, Altis (4), Thomson, Brazzale, Hawking (Kew).

Point Cook kept in touch with the top four with a big win over the struggling Chadstone outfit, 26.15 to 6.12 in D4 Section. Chadstone were trying very hard to be competitive and played some good footy in the third quarter but the boys from the west were far too polished. Best – Marsh (10), Rich, Worrall, Auciello (4), Wilson, Dunne (Point Cook) and Watson, George, Rimmer, field, Tanner, Steve (Chadstone).

“Big V Memories” provided Ormond champion, Brett Connell, with the opportunity to state what an honour and privilege it was to wear the Big V. Brett was in the State team in 1990, 1991, 1992, 1993 and 1994 and in 2010 was named as a Big V Champion, joining some of the elite of the competition to achieve this honour.

Brett named the 1992 Victorian team as the best he had played in.

5 YEARS AGO – 2007 In C Section, Ormond traveled to Central Reserve in an all important game against Mazenod, both clubs trying to make their mark in the top four.

Ormond looked more impressive in the first quarter and continued on in the second to hold a 3.3 lead at half time. Mazenod supporters were expecting a better effort in the second half but Ormond were not about miss their opportunity and went further ahead to record a 15.10 to 6.13 victory and both clubs were level on points. Best – Miller (3), Keleher, Jones, Martinov (3), Cromack, Russell (Ormond) and 22

Oakleigh lost their top spot in D1 Section when they drew with one of their main challengers, Prahran, 13.12 apiece. Oakleigh appeared to be in control at three quarter time but a great last term by Prahran (6.4) enabled them to share the points. Best – Sleight, Katavolos (4), Nobbs, Bervan, Falcone, Scanlon (Prahran) and Fitzgerald, MacKenzie, Holden, Zula, Doherty, Bromley (Oakleigh).

Peninsula Old Boys’ Steve Parsons played his 250th game and had been a valuable senior player for over a decade.

St Bernards congratulated Chris Davis on reaching his 200th game, especially as he used the occasion to kick 6 goals for the match, for the first time in his life!

10 YEARS AGO – 2002 Whitefriars remained undefeated in C Section following their close tussle with Beaumaris that saw the Friars draw away in the last quarter. Beaumaris dropped out of the top four as a result of the 13.10 to 9.10 defeat. Best – M Power, Eames, Langford, Pasqualotto, Kennedy, Hilton (Whitefriars) and Jury, Martin, McGeogh, Teasdale, Pitts, Edge (Beaumaris).

C Section Senior Coaches were Greg Whitcroft (Banyule), Tim Reinerts and John McNicholas (Beaumaris), Dean Anderson (Caulfield Grammarians), Pat Hawkins (Collegians), Paul Beddoe (Glen Eira), Jarrod O’Neill (Old Camberwell), Jeff Costello (Old Mentonians), Derek Hine (Prahran), Russell Barnes (St Bedes/Mentone Tigers) and Greg Feutrill (Whitefriars).

Uni Blacks defeated Mentone Amateurs in the ‘match of the day’ in D1 Section. Once the Blacks got the lead they never relinquished it despite the constant Mentone challenges and went on to win 14.6 to 10.5.

Best – B Cunningham, Mackie, Moss, Caccaviello (4), Brown, M Cunningham (Blacks) and Dixon, Gallagher, S Sullivan, M Sullivan, Hamilton, Perazzo (Mentone).

Chris Matthews (Williamstown CYMS), Stephen Pitcher (St Leos) and Al Herman (Monash Blues) all played their 100th games while Matthew McCraw (St Bedes/Mentone Tigers) played his 200th.

20 YEARS AGO – 1992 St Bedes were happy to get over the line against Old Geelong at Como Park in a relatively low scoring game, 9.8 to 8.10. Old Geelong nearly stole the match but errant kicking cost them late in the game. Best – Brad Smith, Fitzgibbon, M Beasley, Boag, McLachlan, Loos (StB) and J Handbury, M Davis, Peddie, Gunn, THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2012

Roysmith, Glascott (OG).

Elsternwick in E Section had a really ‘dirty’ day against Power House where poor kicking for goal was the norm! The Wicks did not score their first goal until mid way through the third term and Powerhouse were also inaccurate but managed to kick enough for respectability. Final score 13.22 to 1.13 allowed Powerhouse to remain just outside the four on percentage. Best – Dodd, Wright, Morris, Gallo, Desler, J Hall (PH) and D Contin, Pachelor, Nicholson, Southall, Ward, Christie (Elsternwick).

Graham dangerous up forward, they coasted home 15.10 to 10.15. Paradians were now in third position on 4 wins, Ormond undefeated on 6. Best – Wood, Crumpton, Graham (4), Kozlowski (5), Murphy, Dexter (Ormond) and Duke (3), Bahen, Carroll, Burt, Kyne, McKinley (Paradians).

Justin Toohey umpired his 100th game and had achieved the status of Victoria’s representative at the previous season’s AAFC Carnival in Perth. Justin (now a VAFA Board member) nominated Ric Schober (Collegians) and Bruno Conti (NOBS) as the best amateur players he had seen.

Uni Blacks trailed Tooronga-Malvern at half time in B Section but with a 7 goal third quarter, they took the lead and finished with 13.12 versus 9.13 at the final siren. Best – Stewart (5), McLean (3), C Cordner, MacCallum, Fisher, Matthews (UB) and Casey, Rutherford, Jones, Heslop, Hoey, Davie (TM).

30 YEARS AGO – 1982

John (Herb) Adams, President of North Old Boys, played his 200th VAFA game of which 54 had been with University Blacks. Now playing in the reserves as a dangerous forward, “Herb” had previously been Club Captain at NOBS and was critical to their rise up the ranks of the VAFA.

In a battle for a spot in the top four, Uni Blues hosted AJAX and it was a great game from the start. The quicker AJAX side caused quite a few problems for the Blues and held a 14 point lead at half time. At three quarter time the Blues had leveled the scores and the stage was set for a great final term. During the frantic last term, 12 goals were scored but it was the boys from the Uni who prevailed 19.13 to 17.11 in a very entertaining game. Best – R Curnow, Yeo, Cortese (4), Jennings (3), Jackson, Yeoman (Blues) and R Marks (4), S Marks, Zemski, Friedman, Zubin, Ritterman (AJAX).

Old Melburnians became the team to beat in B Section with a strong win over Alphington and Alphington dropped out of the four as a result. OM’s kicked 10 goals in the first quarter to secure the game and won by just over ten, 25.18 to 16.9. Best – Morphet, Morrison, Brown, P Thompson, J Thomson, M Shaw (OM’s) and Nicol (4), Vallence, Penrose, Pavia, B Jones, Carlos (Alphington).

Stuart Stockdale became only the second player in Old Trinity’s history to reach 200 games and had played in the club’s first eighteen in each grade from E to A. Joe and Kevin Segota became the first brothers to officiate as field umpires in the same match and completed the feat at Elsternwick Park.

40 YEARS AGO – 1972 Ormond widened the gap between themselves and Old Paradians in a tight, entertaining match where ‘The Monds’ hung on to a slender lead for the most of the day. In the last quarter, it was Ormond’s systematic approach and with Ian “Wally” Kozlowski and Alan THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2012

50 YEARS AGO – 1962 MHSOB farewelled their former President, Geoff Pengilly, who was Sydney bound after 20 years as a player, captain and administrator.

OGGS could kick only 1.3 against Kew in C Section to record easily the lowest score for the day! Kew’s winning tally was 12.12. St Kilda CBC were the only undefeated team in C Section.

Old Brighton Grammarians played their 100th game since their re-entry into the Association and Vin Pilkington recorded his 100th game for De La Salle.

Collegians’ excellent last quarter against Ormond in A Section, when they scored 4.4 to 0.4, allowed them to stay on top of the ladder.

60 YEARS AGO – 1952 Laurie (Socks) Holman played his 100th game for Ormond (commencing somewhat of a dynasty of Holmans at OAFC with his son and grandsons later wearing the Brown and Blue).

MHSOB’s 1.6 against Ivanhoe (10.16) was their lowest score ever and Bill Mason was starring for Ivanhoe Juniors. Bill later became an excellent Field Umpire for the VAFA after a distinguished playing career.

Coburg, with a solid 13.18 victory over East Malvern 4.9 to retain their unbeaten run in C Section.

FTLOTG 700 CLUB Congratulations to Kevin Segota on his big 700th today.

Kevin is one of the VAFA’s true personalities, but has been for an eternity one of the better performers between the sticks.

InnerFM commentator Simon Petch, who was on a Big V trip with Kevin a few years back, agrees that his judgment on the field is second to none but says he is a good judge of a pint after the game too.

BIG V COACHES – SEPARATED AT BIRTH We thought former Big V gaffer Dean Anderson looked a bit like actor Eric Bana, but the new man in charge Simon Lethlean has a strong resemblance to Sherlock star Robert Downey Jr. Let us know if you have more “separateds”.

CHAMPS OF THE CANTEEN

It’s a dog life at St Bernard’s, a Snow Dog’s life that is.

The canteen at the Snakepit is located underneath the social club in a confined space, but on its day it can take a dollar or two.

Brigid and Annabelle are in their third year selling hot dogs, pies and always get a kick out of meeting new and friendly faces.

200

De La Salle’s Beau Hill was an U19 Premiership player in 2008 and has twice won the U19 coaches award. He also achieved that same award with the Thirds in 2011. Beau is a reliable and hard working defender who is highly regarded as being a fantastic clubman.

200

St.Bernard’s Nick Smith is a product of the College and Juniors programme.

He made his debut in the U19s in the season 2000. Since then, he has established himself as a reliable back pocket player with great foot skills on either side. For years, Nick’s talent was underrated until recently when he played a role as a run with midfielder in the seniors with success. Nick was a member of the 2003 “A” Grade Reserves Flag and a 2 time Reserves Best and Fairest winner. Nick is a dedicated team member who is always on the track and at club functions.

150

Old Trinity’s Stuart Cade time at the club has almost spanned twenty years with much of his career playing alongside his brothers Tim and Jono.

150

De La Salle’s Michael Nankervis has a long list of awards and achievements including an U19 Best & Fairest, 2 Reserves Best and Fairest and a Senior Best First Year Player Award. Michael is also an U19 and Reserves premiership player and is versatile defender and on-baller who has provided outstanding service to the club.

150

Old Carey’s Brett Andrews commenced his career in U19s and has qualified for Life Membership. Brett is the fourth member of the Andrews family to become a life member which is unprecedented at the Club. A stylish and tough half back, Brett was an integral member of the 2011 Carey Club 18 North premiership side.

150

Glen Eira Saint Shane Hollow wears the number 35 with pride. Both a senior and reserves player who rarely misses training and is an excellent clubman. Shane came to the club with little football experience and has become quite an asset to the Saints playing mainly in the forward line and loves to sneak a goal now and then.

150

One of St Kevin’s Old Boys’ favourite sons and current Club Captain Anthony Lynch joined SKOB in 2004 and led the U19s to a GF that year, kicking bags of 10 goals on multiple occasions, as well as 6 goals in his first senior game.

He then cemented himself as one of the best ruckmen in the competition, winning a club best and fairest and recently wearing the Big V against the EFL. Anthony is best known at SKOB for his leadership, brutal shirtfronts and for being a genuinely great bloke to have around the place.

100

reserves the right to find one on the web.

Glen Eira Saint Abdi Farah comes from a long list of guys out of Africa who have played for the Saints. He has played in both the seniors and reserves mainly in the ruck. Abdi virtually learned to play footy from scratch at our club and has grown to be a great player.

THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2012

100

Kew’s popular clubman Scott Norman joined rom Daysdale JFC via Corowa and has been an integral part of the club ever since. Dual Coaches Trophy winner (one Seniors, and one Reserves), co-chairman of the social committee and this season a five game winning streak as Reserves Captain/Coach.

100

St Kevins Jack Mullen is a player with outstanding football pedigree, and becomes one of the rare father/son combinations to play over 100 games for SKOB. The skilful forward enjoyed a break-out season last year, playing senior football for the first time as well as being the reserves leading goal scorer.

Jack has unique ability to kick them from any angle, and lets his opponents know about it too. He is a great St. Kevin’s man, a strong contributor to both football and cricket clubs, and his passion for both rivals only the great Will Browne. Due to cricket finals, it’s was a late start to season 2012 for the man affectionately known as ‘Jack’.

100

St Kevin’s Ricky Caldow began at SKOB in 2005 and over the last 7 years has never missed a club function or end of season trip and is a favourite amongst the players. In Rick’s 100 games, he has consistently won the hard ball and as such has locked away the reserves on ball position when he is not playing in the seniors. Rick has won many well deserved awards, including the 2006, 2008 and 2011 Reserves Best and Fairest, and was a player in the 2008 Reserves Grand Final where he was awarded the SKOB Best Finals Player.

Rick was vice captain of the Reserves in 2010 and was promoted to Reserves captain in 2011.

100

De La Salle’s Jacob Gotch is one of the clubs most decorated current players. Jacob made his senior debut in 2007 as an 18 year old and has represented the VAFA at U21 and U23 level. Jacob is an U19 Premiership player and best and fairest winner. In 2009 he won the Senior Best and Fairest award and has several other placings. In 2011, he was named as the club’s most consistent player. He has a remarkable record for someone so young and is one of the elite players in the competition.

100

De La Salle’s Adam Kovarik played his 100th game for De La Salle in Round 4. He is a 2 time U19 premiership player and in 2008 was the leading goal kicker in the Under 19 Premier Division. Adam was a club 18 premiership player in 2011 and is a strongly built key forward with good hands and great goal sense

100

Old Mentonians David Cochrane and Brad Norton are both products of the Under 19s.

David has been a great contributor to the Senior team and has been the team’s leading goal kicker on several occasions as well as finishing in the top three in the best and fairest.

Brad has had an outstanding career to date. Club captain, under 19s premiership, two senior best and fairest awards and VAFA representative.

UNDER 19

TO HAVE AND TO HOLD, BUT USUALLY NOT FOR LONG U19 football last week was a feast for some and a famine for others, with some lopsided results in many games and a true contest in but a few.

With just five games behind us, there is concern over the growing gap between rich and poor, with the sections, despite best efforts of the VAFA and club officials, showing disparities between teams that seem impossible to bridge under current arrangements.

De La Salle and Old Xaverians are strong, or close to it, each year. For the other clubs, it is more a case of hit and miss. Even Xavs, premiers with their second U19 team last season, are finding it hard to keep up this year, with numbers not so much the factor as the strength of teams it has played.

Every club must deal with the age eligibility issue. A grand crop one year may mean a poorer harvest is to come in the next couple. As well as players graduating to senior ranks, there are those, particularly at the smaller clubs, who are playing senior football already.

All clubs should be thinking about possible remedies for this inequality, though as the landscape in under-age football changes so rapidly, it is hard to fix sights on any target.

And so to the football, where despite the margins, talent spotters still have a twinkle in their eye and plenty of names to add to their little black books.

PREMIER: Speaking of black, it was a black day for the Varsity Blacks, caned by super-power DLS. Fitzroy also struggled against an Old Scotch team that is on the improve. Jordan Clarke booted seven and Ed Walmsley four. They are both names you’ll hear of a lot in future years.

St Bede’s/Mentone Tigers is a club that won an U19 Premier flag a few years back and scorched Beaumaris in the Bayside Derby. Old Melburnians 48

was too strong for Uni Blues, while the game of the day was undoubtedly St Bernard’s and Xavs at the Snakepit. The visitors were sharper in the first term and that advantage approximated the final result.

SECTION 2: Mick Tregear’s six goals saw the Tonners home easily over Marcellin. Werrribee Districts and Caulfield Grammarians played a beauty, with the Bees coming back from a halftime deficit and finishing stronger. Jaxon Cooke and Jackson Small (different spellings, different teams) booted five apiece. Old Trinity shook off Haileyburians in the second half to win well, while SKOB smashed Old Carey, Zac Ginies again prominent and Jordy Cellini kicking five.

SECTION 3: Mazenod came out firing and easily defeated PEGS, with the consistent Lou Greco kicking five. Lion scion Sam Hibbins kicked five as Collegians won buy a massive margin over Old Xaverians. Harry Crothers booted six in a BOG performance for the Wellers, who clobbered Ormond. Northern Blues again looked the goods in punishing St Bernard’s, with Jake Powell leading a swag of goalscorers for the artists formerly known as the Bullants.

NORTH: Karey Taylor again featured for the OG, scoring another six in a tight battle with La Trobe Uni. Ivanhoe did it easily over the Unicorns. Emmaus St Leo’s were struck with flu and forfeited, while AJAX has sadly exited the competition.

SOUTH: Peninsula had a ten goal win over Monash Blues, based largely on early dominance and Braden Churcher’s five goals. De La Salle stitched Parkdale Vultures, while St Bede’s/ Mentone Tigers had five from Jordan Young in despatching Beaumaris. St Mary’s Salesian broke it open late, defeating Hampton Rovers on the back of Fraser Coloe’s five goals.

UMPIRES

Steve McCarthy & Cam Davidson Another one

700 up for Chillie We see a sensational milestone this week when VAFA stalwart and legend Kevin (Chillie) Segota (pictured) strides out in his 700th VAFA game.

Chillie started umpiring with the VAFA as a young fit 17 year old in 1978. He umpired the first of many, many grand finals when he blew the whistle in a 1980 decider between St.Bede’s and Old Carey. As a field umpire, he managed to notch up 1 A section, 3 B section and 3 C section grand finals. He also snagged a State match at the Adelaide Oval in 1987. He then took up the flags and thus began another successful stint in his VAFA career. He’s goal umpired 7 A section and 7 B section grand finals and once again a smattering of representative and state matches thrown in there.

Over his career he’s seen many great players. Of the past players, he rates Bruno Conti (NOBs), Bruce Ivey (West Brunswick), Phil Kingston (Ormond), Mark Hibbins (Collegians), Gil McLachlan (Uni Blues) and Peter Sherwen (Old Scotch) at the very top. Of the current group going around he likes Luke (Juice) Wintle (St Bede’s/Mentone Tigers), Matt Handley (Old Xavs), Shura Taft (Collegians) and Andrew Ramsden (Old Trinity).

Without a doubt his best reserves player was TOM BRAIN. Say no more.

To spend so much time in football, you obviously need the support of family. Chillie would like to thank Jane, Josh, Jess, Tito & the rest of his family for their support over the journey. Also to his fellow umpires who he says keep him going.

We’d like as many as possible to make it back to St Bede’s/ Mentone Tigers at Brindisi Street tonight to help him celebrate.

This week we see Peter (Teasa) Teasdale umpire his 600th game when he walks out at Richmond Central with old mate Paul Jones. A few of the Division 4 clubs refer to them as Batman and Robin.

Those 600 games have been far and wide, but they are 400 in the Southern Football League and 200 in the VAFA as a boundary and field umpire.

VAFA highlights include a B section grand final and 2 C section grand finals and one state game.

He also umpired 2 E.J. Whitten Legends games as a boundary umpire, (coincidently with the aforementioned Chillie Segota in the goals).

Also umpired 400 plus games with Moorabbin Saints Juniors (Benny was his advisor in the late 70’s).

Teasa says that the best part of umpiring is the friends you make, as well as the after-match. He says this week it’s back to SBMT for drinks and pizza to celebrate Chillie’s 700th VAFA game & to support David Hindle on his recent 400th game.”

Thank you Roys Shane McNamara would like to thank all at Fitzroy Football Club for the way they congratulated him for umpiring his 150th match last weekend. In particular the standing ovation they gave him and his partner Jayson Nooy. Great community spirit down there.

New Rules for Goal Umpires There have been a number of incredibly weak and insipid performances from goal umpires this year who have tried to keep warm by donning their waterproof spray jackets as outer garments.

From this point forward, if the goal umpires decide to wear their spray jackets and it does not rain, the offenders are obliged to purchase a round of drinks for their fellow umpires at the after-match. If said goal umpire is under 18, a suitable punishment will be decided upon by members of the VAFAUA executive (except for the President who doesn’t have any idea about this message!).

CLUB XVIII

Norm Nugent

OF CROCS AND SOMETIMES CROCKS With Norm Nugent this week far from the madding crowd, here is his expurgated and potted history of the Clubbies.

The genesis of Club XVIII took place prior to the 1971 season when Adrian Fisher, (De La Salle), Steve Mason (Power House) and Andrew Caithness (Old Scotch) formulated a competition for players who were not eligible for or able to play regularly in the Reserves competitions.

The name was taken from the popular Club XI organized by the Melbourne Cricket Club and was a stand-alone competition until it affiliated with the VAFA for Season 1987.

In 1986, the VAFA had begun a “G Section” with 6 teams, four of which were one team clubs. Old Carey, now in Premier Division, competed in the first G Section, along with Monash Whites (now part of the Blues), GTV9, Parkside, Williamstown CYMS and Eltham Old Collegians. With the coming of the Club XVIII teams in 1987, G Section was expanded to twelve teams and H Section was formed with eleven teams competing. Seventeen of these teams were from clubs that are still members of the VAFA. Gone from the ranks are: State Bank, CBC St Kilda (who morphed into Prahran Assumption and Glen Eira respectively), Bloods, GTV9, Parkside and Port Colts.

Several changes in format followed over the next five seasons as the number of participating clubs continued to grow. With the development and continued growth of the Thirds competitions, 2012 has seen Club XVIII revert to a two section competition with twenty two teams participating.

Over the forty two seasons, Club XVIII has attracted much publicity and once provided the VAFA with the means to bring new clubs into the Association. Rupertswood now in Premier C, Eltham (Division 2), St Francis Xavier (Division 3), Chadstone, Mt Lilydale, Eley Park and Box Hill North (all in Division 4) are constituent clubs who 60

came via the Clubbies.

The fact that training regimes are less stringent than in the senior sections has enabled many players to continue playing. A.F.L. executives Gillon McLachlan, Adrian Anderson and Andrew Dillon all played Club XVIII before retiring from the field. Australian Crawl band members James Reyne and the late Brad Robinson played with Bloods. Actors Peter O’Brien, (Old Melburnians), Gary Sweet (Port Colts) and Blair McDonough (Collegians) and comedian Russell Gilbert (Fitzroy) have all been keen participants. Gary Sweet showed his football talent when he won the 1987 Mason Medal as the Best and Fairest in G Section. Brownlow Medalist Brian Wilson played with Power House and Woodrow Medalist Glenn Cox (Marcellin) started his VAFA career in Club XVIII. Football commentator Craig Hutchinson was a solid Prahran player.

David Wittey, who had played 24 games with St Kilda, was drafted by Sydney, from Bloods in 1990. Another Club XVIII draftee in the future seems a remote possibility!!

Senior umpire Tom Windlow, who started his career in Club XVIII, has progressed to umpire the 2011 Premier C Grand Final.

include Paul Fahey, who moved from coaching Old Ivanhoe in Premier section. The 1992 Woodrow Medalist, Paul Matton (Therry Penola), Sheffield Shield cricketer Gerard Dowling (Old Paradians) and former Melbourne Reserves coach Martin Cross also have been prominent umpires. The Club XVIII umpiring organisation has been undertaken by three men only. Alan Woff, who had a VFL umpiring background, became the first coordinator of umpires. Then came Tony Gleeson, who is still umpiring after many years in New York. Present mentor David Windlow, who helped me greatly with this article, is currently in his fortieth season as an umpire, after playing with Power House for the first two seasons of Club XVIII. On the field, the Old Xaverians have dominated
