RE-ESTABLISHING A WINNING CULTURE The season is well underway and we have an indication of who sits where in the respective sections. Teams know the standard necessary to play in finals, who the pace setters are and who will be fighting to maintain their place in the section. But history is littered with teams fast out of the blocks, who can’t sustain their form during the rigours of an 18 match season.

Of the 72 clubs that started an incredible 67 have had a win and should have the confidence that they can perform at the level. Coincidentally five clubs have yet to taste defeat so all sections are incredibly competitive. However, until everyone has played each other, you don’t get a proper gauge on where you stand. In the second half of the season, matches are more structured as the coaches have a deeper understanding of the opposition. In the Premier sections, with all games on VAFATV, each player is thoroughly researched with match ups for each individual.

This is generally not the case in the early rounds.

This is when the coaching staff plays a more significant role. Strategy comes to the fore – you don’t necessarily have to have the best players to win games but you have a team who follows the structures and each player understands, believes and commits.

games before being relegated. Last season they finished the home and away season with 15 wins.

The leaders remained, with captain Brendan Iezzi, last season winning the Moore Medal as the competitions best player, and coach Adam Andrews providing the stability that now see them as the only undefeated team in Premier.

It is premature to think they are certain finalists, but their club has responded in the best possible fashion after a relegation.

Therry Penola and Kew have continued their outstanding form from last year. Both won their respective senior and reserves premierships with Kew also winning the Under 18 section. These two clubs have both played in our Premier Section and have the history that proves that they can continue to develop and recruit players as they move up the grades. Both clubs have strong support off the field and it wouldn’t surprise to see them back as one of our leading Premier clubs.

The final two undefeated teams, Hawthorn and West Brunswick, finished third and fourth in Division 4 last season and form would suggest that they are the two standout teams in that section.

To me the most fascinating aspect of the ladders is the success of newly promoted clubs. Clubs can go either way after experiencing success. In some cases, players can retire on a winning note and this leaves the club struggling to maintain the momentum in the higher section. Three of those clubs whose commitment to the task cannot be questioned are Old Trinity, Therry Penola and Kew.

The jump from Premier B to Premier is always intriguing. We have mentioned how Old Trinity has taken the step however the side that defeated them in the Grand Final, Old Brighton have struggled and are yet to win a match. I watched them last Saturday against Old Scotch and I am sure they are not far off a win, everyone knows how difficult it can be for opposition sides at the Beach Oval.

The outstanding start to the season by Old Trinity is an excellent example of how it was better for a club to be relegated to a lower section to gain a winning culture. In their previous three years in Premier Section, Old Trinity won a total of 14

The promotion and relegation system has again done its work with even competitions in all senior sections. Soon enough it will be Queen’s Birthday break and another chance to reassess the pecking order at the halfway mark.

STARS RETURN, BUT OLD TRINITY PLOUGH ON The return of a number of VFL listed players to Premier clubs last weekend was a welcome fillip for each player’s home club. Collingwood released Jake Williams (DLS), Tom Tyquin and Jack Helliar (SBMT), and Lach Ferguson (Coll) back to their clubs. Essendon did likewise for Murphy Ambrose (OX); Footscray released Nick Jamieson and Jordan Clarke (OS) and Richmond released Ed Barlow (OS). The only unfortunate thing about them all being released last weekend, was the weather.

The conditions limited their ability to show their class but nevertheless all were welcome inclusions and their experience and presence were a lift for those around them. Old Trinity didn’t have any VFL players return for their 10 goal demolition on Beaumaris. Of the 22 OT players last Saturday, 19 have come through the school with the other three players coming to the clubs as mates or as a brother to someone. It is a fantastic effort, and whilst there are other Premier clubs with an equally strong connection with their feeder school or junior club, Old Trinity are the only undefeated side after four rounds of the season.

Beaumaris arrived at Daley Oval with a spring in their step. They had unblemished record that mirrored their first three weeks last year, but also an increased fitness base and a couple of new recruits bolstering an already talented list. The Sharks rightly had an air of confidence going into the match. The lush surface of Daley was a little more lush than usual and this required a change in game plan. Old Trinity familiar with the local flood plain played a simple wet weather game.

One handpass then kick, get the territory, then numbers to the next contest. For four quarters the Sharks over possessed the ball. The first three OT goals were from Beaumaris errors in the back half when taking an extra possession. Old Trinity won the game in the first half, but their defence and indeed their midfield played manful roles in restricting the Sharks run throughout the day. Holding the Sharks to a single goal for the afternoon was a superb achievement. Brendan Iezzi has elevated his game again, his leadership with the ball in hand is unquestioned, but listening to him barking orders, setting up defensive zones 2

and positioning at stoppages is like having another coach on the ground.

Old Brighton’s start to their return to Premier has not been all apples, but there are signs that the Tonners will snare a win soon. Old Scotch seemingly had the game in control for most of their match last week, but there were periods where Old Brighton had the Cardinals worried.

The Cardinals has established and early lead but the game was always within reach as Brighton made their move in the third term, a Leigh Hendra special starting a momentum shift that saw the margin reduce to 10 points. Early goals to Old Scotch in the last, the second without the ball returning to the middle were like an arrow to the heart for Old Brighton. Shane Neaves’ influence continues to build each week for Old Scotch who will be happy with the four points. Old Brighton’s future is brighter than some of the doomsday talk that has surfaced already. Good luck to Andrew Edge in his 200th game for the Tonners today.

For only the second time in De La Salle’s 60 year history three brothers played in the same team.

Last year’s Woodrow Medallist Jake Williams joined bothers Sam and Luke in the senior side that defeated St Bedes/Mentone Tigers at the Dairy Bell. Whilst the Williams triumvirate were providing the run and silk and Tom Humphrey proving to be a rock in defence, having Matt Moore as a forward target was just as important for De La Salle. St Bedes/Mentone were well in the game trailing by 8 points at half time but no one could have predicted that De La would slam on six goals in a hearbeat in the third. It killed the game there and then as Paul Satterly lauded his team post match for their ‘total team effort’.

quarters with 17 men as two reports to key players soured their first win of 2014. Xavs held on by 3 points against a gallant Collegians at Toorak Park.

The result leaves both clubs at 1-3 and what we take out of the match is hard to establish other than the fact that Beetham and Shaw have been dealt with by the tribunal, and we were denied a real look at these sides after weather turned the match into a battle of attrition. Luke Barry has been a find for Old Xavs as has Jarryd Skene, both are performing on a weekly basis at this level.

Shura Taft has been omnipresent in Collegians best players all year and his three goals could have been more had he kicked straight. In the end it was a game of inches and Xavs just had enough to hang on for a much needed win.

Uni Blacks travelled to St Bernard’s with an understanding of the monumental effort that would be required to win at the Snakepit for a second year in a row. Even in the lean times, St Bernard’s ability to make life difficult for visiting sides is notorious, and importantly 2014 is not shaping as one of those lean times. Four goals in each of the first two terms

PREMIER

Old Brighton are moving in the right direction but the Sharks have a point to prove after last week.

Would like to see the Tonners win but can’t tip them just yet. Both Old Scotch and Old Xaverians have struggled to find second gear this year, going with the Cardinals at home. Uni Blacks should slow the momentum building at De La Salle when they run out at the Uni whilst St Bernard’s will be too strong for St Bedes/Mentone Tigers at the Snakepit. Old Trinty will make it five straight wins when they travel to Harry Trott to tackle Collegians.

gave the home team a 20 point edge at the break.

Whilst Blacks reduced that by three quarter time, a five goal final term saw St Bernard’s join Blacks and Beaumaris at 3-1. Bentick was his industrial self, and Sullivan continues to rack up the plaudits. This week however it was Nick Cooke who stole the show with his four goals and ball use making the incisions to the Blacks rearguard at the perfect times. Blacks returned another sub 10 goal effort and will need Jandre Slabbert to hit the scoreboard as well as he hit the packs last week to give support to Pattison (3) and Kruse (2).

MID TABLE LOG JAM A wet, boggy round five sees both the relegated and promoted sides for 2014 sit at the top and bottom of the ladder respectively, and the race for the top four extended the field of potential candidates. St Kevins out-bodied AJAX at home to prove themselves as a red hot finals chance; Fitzroy wrestled out a victory against Caulfield Grammarians at Brunswick Street; Old Carey beat Old Ivanhoe and became equal ladder leaders; Old Haileybury slogged out a win against Melburnians in a low scoring affair; and University Blues put Mazenod to the sword in a master class.

AJAX travelled to play SKOB at TH King Oval in a fixture that was to separate the sides on the ladder and solidify a spot in the top four for the victor.

St Kevins got the jump early and dominated the game for all four quarters. AJAX only managed a single goal half time, while SKOB raced away to a 29-point lead at the main break. SKOB dominated stoppages and contests with bigger, harder bodies than their rivals, while run through the middle and class of ball movement created a lethal combination that the Jackers couldn’t contain.

Only troubling the scorers with four behinds in the third term, AJAX were out of the running at the final change, 40 points in arrears of SKOB with only one goal on the scoreboard. Four junk time goals in the last couldn’t close the gap for AJAX, as Coates and Karageorgiou dobbed three each and Nash, Wood and Salopek moved the ball with class to help SKOB to a 54 point win. St Kevins travel to Old Ivanhoe today, while AJAX host Old Melburnians.

Fitzroy needed a win to stay in touch with the top four, and they fought one out at home against Caulfield Grammarians. Fitzroy kicked at goal wildly, getting the early jump despite their inaccuracy finishing with 4.11 on the scoreboard by half time, to the Field’s 3.5. Although Caulfield weren’t finished, and showed some grit in the third term, dominating play and kicking two goals four while holding Fitzroy to only one behind.

However it was The Red’s who had more heart, roaring like the Fitzroy of Old and booting two 4

goals seven and this time holding Caulfield to only one point for the quarter to win by 15 points on a day when goals were hard to find. Fitzroy Need to beat Mazenod next week if they are to keep their top four hopes alive, while Caufield take on the surging Old Carey.

Old Carey’s surge continued at home, with a 26 point win over Old Ivanhoe. The win wasn’t without a battle for Carey, though, who after jumping to an 11 point lead at quarter time, found themselves 20 points down at the main break. A gutsy third quarter proved the difference for Old Carey, dominating play with five goals two to Ivanhoe’s two behinds setting the foundations for a win. Old Carey kept their foot to the throat of Old Ivanhoe in the last, exceeding the Hoes’ two goals one with four goals and fives behinds, to win the quarter and the match. Roach played with class and nabbed two majors for the home side, with the aid of Crowther and Howat who were too strong for the Ivanhoe midfield in Vella and Groth and a gallant performance from Siciliano, who dobbed five majors.

Old Haileybury grappled against Old Melburnians in an old fashioned slog at the Junction Oval.

Both sides were level at quarter time, before Haileyburians broke free and kicked two majors in the second term to enjoy a 15 point margin at the main break. As the rain cleared and conditions bettered in the third quarter, both teams began to move he ball with more fluidity. OM’s lifted to win the quarter but still trailed narrowly by three points at three quarter time. Old Haileybury dominated the scoring in the final term, but were wasteful with their opportunities. The Bloods booted 1.6 to OM’s three behinds to clinch an important win on the road and bring them back PREMIER B — TIPS IN BOLD (YEARS TOTAL 11 / 44%) Mazenod v Fitzroy Old Ivanhoe v St Kevins AJAX v Old Melburnians Caulfield Grammarians v Old Carey Old Haileybury v University Blues

in contention with the chasing pack. Paul, Stowe and Backway were among the best for the victors, while Peacock and Batchet can be content with their games. It is still difficult to get a read on the form of Old Melburnians but one this is clear, they need to start winning some of these close ones soon. Both sides face tough opposition today, Melburnians shape up against AJAX, while Old Haileybury take on the steaming Uni Blues. A win for both sides would confirm the belief that this section is wide open.

won every quarter easily and held Mazenod to one behind for the entire second half in what turned out being a flogging. The day truly belonged to Uni Blues, as Summers starred around the ground and kicked four majors, alongside Butler, Carr and Mugavin who were the pick of players within the well oiled machine. Kelly and Patti played brave games for Mazenod, who will take some lessons from a day they would rather forget into their clash against Fitzroy today. Uni Blues, on the other hand should keep the momentum moving when they travel to Old Haileybury.

University Blues made up for last week’s loss by absolutely dismantling Mazenod in front of a parochial crowd celebrating the 10 year anniversary of their 2004 A Grade flags. The Blues

PIRATES TAKE COMMAND OF C A Friday night downpour ensured all games were played on bog-heaps, but that did little to dampen the spirits of Peninsula, Marcellin, PEGS, Oakleigh and Old Camberwell – who each recorded important wins. For the vanquished it was a case of missed opportunity and an inability to appreciate the wet conditions. Crucial losses to Ormond and the Monash Blues have seen them lose ground on the rest of the competition, while Parkdale and Banyule remained parked at the bottom.

the quarter. For the Eagles Carlson and Antypas made light work of handling the heavy Sherrin, each kicking two goals up forward in the trying conditions. Meanwhile for the Blues it was Bryce who kept them in the contest contributing two valuable goals. The Eagles were almost left to lament their wayward third term as Monash mounted a late challenge, but it wasn’t to be. The Eagles now find themselves in 3rd position on the ladder.

Hampton Rovers have slipped to 4th on the Premier C table after a 30 point loss to Peninsula.

The Pirates were challenged in the first half but responded with an eight goal third term. It was a fiery contest early at Boss James Reserve as both sides quite literally traded blows, but it was the Pirates with their noses in front at the main change. Despite injury concerns at the half time interval, the Pirates, against the odds, kicked seven unanswered goals in the third term, snuffing out any hopes of a Rovers revival. Pensinsula Captain Stu Grigg embodied the sentiments of Coach Claringbold, fighting hard in and under the packs, in a best on ground display. For the Rovers Ting continued his rich vein of form with another stellar performance, while Turner added four more to his growing tally. Pomeroy, Glenn and Feldgen were also solid contributors for the Pirates on the day.

With a number of teams sitting on two wins and three losses and breathing down the neck of the Rovers, this week’s game shapes as a must win game, lose it, and the Rovers could slide further down the ladder.

PEGS’ Sporting Fields must have some first class drainage systems in place, because to kick 22.6 after an overnight deluge is by no means an easy feat. PEGS were never headed, extending their margin after half time to run about comfortable 71 point winners over Banyule. A blistering first quarter onslaught was the backbone to the win, in which they kicked 7.2 to four behinds. Banyule were able to challenge the locals in the 2nd and 4th terms but lapses in the 1st and 3rd cost them dearly. Forrest backed up with another impressive display this time kicking seven, whilst he as ably supported by Flaherty, Skurrie and Cerantonio who were all instrumental. For the Bears, Biscontin and Burns tried hard, but they lacked the cattle to contain the rampaging Bombers. Precision passing and quick ball movement enabled the Bombers to slice through the Banyule defence.

Unfortunately an ambulance had to be called twice to take two Bears players to hospital for separate incidents during the game. By all reports both PEGS and Banyule did fantastic jobs in supporting and caring for the two injured players.

Read more about this in For the love of the game on pages 9-12.

For the second time in only a matter of weeks, Monash have been unable to grind out a win in a tight contest, this time at the hands of Marcellin.

A two point loss is compounded on a day like Saturday with the grueling demands of wet weather football. Goals were hard to come by at Frearson Oval, with each team only booting four and five goals respectively. The game was evenly poised at half time as Monash held a slender five point advantage. The Eagles had a chance to put the game beyond doubt in the third term, but butchered the footy up forward, kicking 1.6 for 6

Parkdale again proved that they are not to be dismissed as a mere commodity in Premier C this year, pushing Oakleigh all the way, but ultimately PREMIER C — TIPS IN BOLD (YEARS TOTAL 16 / 64%) Ormond v Oakleigh Monash Blues v Hampton Rovers Parkdale Vultures v PEGS Marcellin v Peninsula Banyule v Old Camberwell

falling 17 points short. Rain had made a mess of the central wicket at Scammell Reserve, making it a task for both sides to keep their feet. Oakleigh found their feet first though, opening up a handy 34 point buffer at half time after they produced an imposing second quarter. But in this day and age, you can’t afford to rest on your laurels. The Vultures took full advantage of a reactive Oakleigh outfit closing the deficit to 21 points at the final change. Oakleigh would have to stave off another Parkdale challenge, but two late goals sealed the win. Oakleigh were well served by Cleary, Paisley and Di Siervi while Papatsanis and Graham were among Parkdale’s best.

Old Camberwell sent shockwaves through the competition with a 112 point pummeling of Ormond. Despite it only being the Wellers second win for the year, the percentage boosting win has seen their percentage skyrocket to 118.68 to be the third best in the league. The Wellers dictated

PREMIER C

Oakleigh could climb into the four, if they can replicate their form over the last fortnight with a win over Ormond. Monash will put two narrow losses behind them to secure win number three over the Hampton Rovers and PEGS will continue their ominous form with a big win over Parkdale.

The road trip will be well worth it for Peninsula when they get the chocolates over Marcellin and Old Camberwell should enjoy another percentage boosting win.

proceedings from the outset, extending their margin at every change. The Ormond defence was no match for Old Camberwell big men Robert Campbell and Tom Allwright who contributed 11 goals between them. The only highlight for Ormond was the performance of Plostins and three goals to Tabakman. The cornerstone to the win was the Wellers relentless desire to pressure the opposition and their ability to restrict them to 13 scoring shots for the match.

FOR THE LOVE OF THE GAME

MARCELLIN V BULLEEN TEMP LADIES There were plenty of Ladies Day activities last weekend and they continue this week as clubs who were away from home last week host their Ladies and Women’s functions this weekend.

Marcellin are one such club as they will host their annual Ladies Day Lunch before their home game against Peninsula. The special guests are Shelly Ware from the Marngrook Footy Show and Kate Moloney from the Melbourne Vixens.

As well as hosting a lunch, the club will on Sunday play their annual Ladies Charity Football Match between the Marcellin Sheagles and the Bulleen Templestowe Ladyants at Ted Ajani Reserve. Both teams are raising money for the

Ovarian Cancer Research Foundation. More information on the event is at the following link: http://goo.gl/S6FnSb. The teams are made up of the wives and girlfriends of both sides and with the series locked at 1-1 after the Sheagles took out the inaugural match in 2012 only to be toppled over in 2013, this year’s edition of the Bulleen Templestowe Ladyants v Marcellin Sheagles game is again the talk of the town. The clubs are hoping to get a decent crowd there and raise money for the foundation and would welcome all VAFA supporters to get along to the event which promises to be fantastic day’s football.

MUM’S BLANKET Being Mother’s Day last weekend, most football mums were out watching their sons run around in the mud on the Saturday. VAFA Football Admin Assistant, Christian Burgess still treks back to his home town of Myrtleford each weekend to play for his home club. Last Saturday, Christian unfortunately hurt his ankle in the second quarter putting him out of the rest of the game.

His mother, not satisfied that the club dressing gown was providing enough warmth for her 10

son on the bench, brought over a blanket for Christian at three quarter time. We thought these country footballers were meant to be tough?!

PEGS AND BANYULE MEDICOS AND TRAINERS TEAM UP This week emails have been flowing back and forth between PEGS and Banyule to enquire of the health of two of Banyule’s injured players and to thank all of those people that assisted with the injured players on the day. Rather than trying to re-tell the story, we will share how both PEGS and Banyule described the scenarios that saw two Ambulances called to the ground before taking away a couple of injured Bears.

PEGS’ Sean Flaherty: “A good news story that came out of last Saturday’s match between PEGS and Banyule -I say good news as the player involved is ok and will make a full recovery. In the first quarter of the senior game a Banyule player Lincoln was knocked out and when he did come to he was badly concussed. There was no malice in the incident just a freak accident.

Our CHB Jarryd French, who is also training to be a paramedic was first on the scene and along with our trainer Lisa, who has had experience with the Melbourne Storm were quick to assess the situation and got the trauma kit out and made the player feel as comfortable as possible until the ambulance arrived. Jarryd stayed by the Banyule player’s side and talked to him, the player did not know where he was or his name he was in a bad way, and he could move his fingers and toes which was great news. The game was played in good spirits and well umpired – it was pleasing to see the medical staff of both teams work together. Our medical staff is experienced and took the lead role but both Clubs worked together. It was unfortunate that another Banyule player Darcy, was also hurt, a broken leg again both medical teams looked after him before a second ambulance arrived.”

THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2014

Banyule’s Bruce Ryan: “Ambulance no 1 - At approximately the 14 minute mark of the first quarter Lincoln Burns #16 for Banyule, tackled a PEGS player but in doing so, pulled the player on top of him. In the action Lincoln’s head has hit the ground or the other player and knocked him out. Andrew Frazer #1 for PEGS was one of the first to help Lincoln as well as trainers from both sides, I think Andrew called over #38 Jarryd French who is training to be a paramedic to help. When I got there Jarryd was managing the situation and Lisa Harper (PEGS trainer) was other main person helping- she was holding Lincolns head and talk to Lincoln. Jarryd placed a neck brace on and also gathered a sample of blood that was coming from Lincoln’s ear as a precaution for the ambulance drivers but I believe the blood was later found to be from a cut. Lincoln was not moved from the ground and we waited for an ambulance to arrive.

The ambulance people were very good and took Lincoln to Royal Melbourne Hospital where he had tests including a CAT-SCAN and was later released that night.

Ambulance number 2 - late in the second quarter #22 for Banyule Darcy Cumberland, went to spoil a mark and landed with a straight leg and immediately went down. Sarah the Banyule trainer taped his feet together because Darcy said he heard a crack and he couldn’t put weight on his left leg. He was stretchered off the ground by Banyule and PEGS people. He was also taken to Royal Melbourne Hospital where he had surgery on Sunday for a broken fibula.”

LOVE THE GAME FORFOR THETHE LOVE OFOF THE GAME

CROWE’S TOSSES COIN AHEAD OF THORNTON Olivia was invited out to the middle pre-match to toss the coin as part of the celebration of Women’s Round. Earlier Olivia and more than 100 people packed into the social rooms at Daley Oval to hear from star of the screen and stage, Sigrid Thornton.

The VAFA’s very own newly appointed umpire operations Officer, Olivia Crowe was one of many special guests at Old Trinity’s Ladies Lunch for their match against Beaumaris.

Thornton spoke about how her career in acting is much akin to a footballer’s, “It’s not about the destination, it’s about the journey”. Despite Sigrid’s career achievements and notoriety, she was bumped from the coin toss for Olivia who took the honour as seen in the photo with captains Tom Dean (Beaumaris) and Brendan Iezzi (Old Trinity).

PINK BEARS We hosted 76 ladies for lunch raising funds and awareness for the Breast Cancer Network Australia (BCNA). The boys looked sensational in their pink guernseys as the club continued to raise funds well into the evening. Each player’s jumper was auctioned off on the night and unfortunately for some of the bidders the

12

player didn’t come with the jumper! Kew were grateful that they were able to come from 38 points behind at half time to defeat St Mary’s Salesian, because as is the case at all clubs, the supporters and players all stay around longer and reach deeper into their pockets after the club has had a win.

VAFA NEWSLETTER’S GLOBAL REACH The VAFA has released its new look weekly newsletter recently and it’s fair to say the VAFA reaches all corners of the Earth. As the map shows, we have people reading about the VAFA in more than 30 countries on a weekly basis. Obviously our largest readership is in Australia, with second biggest readership in the USA followed by the UK. Some of the more surprising countries where people are catching up on VAFA news include, Bolivia, Ecuador, Hungary, Poland, Morocco, Laos and Ukraine. That someone in Ukraine is reading VAFA news when the country is on the cusp of civil war is no mean feat.

TONY REACHES 450 GAMES Box Hill North would like to recognise an outstanding achievement by their loyal, committed, and respected Team Manager Tony Leonard on reaching 450 games. Tony has always been there, through the good times and the tough and all at Bocky are so grateful to have Tony around. The boys were particularly wrapped they were able to get a win for Tony last weekend. Tony first came to the club in 1989 as a player. He then went on to become the team manager in 1991 and 92. After taking a short break, Tony returned to the club in 96 again as team manager. Tony has also assisted as time keeper, running water, and being the runner on a number of occasions. Tony can still recall the ‘91 Premiership days but it’s the lifelong friends he has met through the club that continues to be his driver for maintaining his connection with the club.

THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2014

BLUES REMEMBER THE GOOD TIMES Over 170 people attended the 2004 premiership reunion lunch at Uni Blues last Saturday. John Kanis, senior coach of the club, attributed much of the success to newly appointed AFL CEO Gil McLachlan and former coach Grant Williams, in setting up certain disciplines that the club used in building a successful culture. This ultimately benefitted the club as they had one of their best seasons on record winning premierships in the A Section seniors, reserves and Club XVIII. The combined scores from the day read Uni Blues 53.27 to the opposition 20.22, an average winning margin of over 10 goals. To top it off current coach Quinton Gleeson took home the Woodrow Medal for the best and fairest player in A Section.

At the lunch to discuss current AFL issues was Chief Football Writer of The Age, Caroline Wilson. Caroline spoke about a number of hot topics including the Essendon saga, costs at the footy and the fixture but the one that raised the most discussion was her front page article in the late 1990’s on a proposed merger between the Blacks and the Blues. In the AFL there had been one merger and the talk of more to come.

Caroline believes there is no such thing as a real merger, but they are a takeover in disguise. In those days Uni Blacks were in E Section and Blues in A. Now we have Uni Blacks and Blues both amongst the favourites to win the titles in Premier and Premier B and with a distinct possibility of our two highest section senior premierships heading to Uni.

DIVISION 1

James Reid

@JamesRied9

BIG WINS, BIGGER LOSSES Division 1 produced a lively round of football yet again, as surprise victories, unexpected losses and another 100-point thrashing were the order of the day. Debate raged on whether a particular result was a costly slip-up or a much needed win throughout the week. However, for all teams vying for the top four, nothing is set in stone yet.

One side that will undoubtedly claim one of those four spots is Therry Penola, going 5-0 and setting a blistering pace for the rest of the competition.

NOBS/St Pats nip at their heels on 4-1 after a healthy win of their own to claim second place.

One who let an opportunity slip was Prahran Assumption as their grip on the top four slipped away last week. The Two Blues met their match when they travelled to Doncaster to take on Yarra Valley. Not to take anything away from the Bushrangers, their performance was by and large better than the Two Blues’ but Prahran Assumption were unable to kick accurately early and it cost them. Yarra Valley kept the edge with clean possessions and straight kicking to hold a 2-point lead at halftime. The Two Blues stuck with the Bushrangers in the third to win the quarter and tie up the scores at 47 apiece. However, in the fourth quarter Yarra Valley broke away to inaccurately muster 3.7 for the term and squeeze home an 11-point victory. Ryan Pollard led the goal tally with three while Ryan Amos was declared best on ground in YVOBFC’s second win.

Two of Division 1’s veterans met a Como Park as Old Geelong hosted Williamstown CYMS and both now sit in tandem on 3-2 and in the top four.

Williamstown had a fighting chance to go 4-1 and second spot before proceedings began, but OG’s prevented that and possibility in recording an important win. Old Geelong pressed early on to take an 8-point lead at quarter time which became 21 at half time after some wayward kicking from the CY’s. Williamstown made some slow progress in retrieving the deficit in the third quarter, keeping the home team goalless, but were still behind by 13-points going into the final change. However, Old Geelong held on in sloppy conditions to beat the visitors by 8-points. Alex Stewart was BOG in 16

what looks to be a promising season for the OG’s.

NOBS/St Pats delivered a four quarter performance in what was a dominant display as they convincingly knocked off Whitefriars. From the outset the end result was obvious, as the Nobs kicked 7.5 in the first half. A number not overly impressive, but their defensive efforts were. Chris Colman led the defence as they overwhelmingly won the battle against Whitefriars’ forwards. The wet conditions combined with a Fort Knox of a backline resulted in the Friars managing just two goals for the games entirety. NOBSPC’s attack on the footy was too much for Whitefriars as they ran away to a 67-point victory. Matt Keown was best afield with five goals in hellish weather for a forward, while club record holder Daniel Tokin relished the wet conditions.

Therry Penola notched up their fifth consecutive victory with a second 100-point demolition in as many weeks, this time defeating Bulleen Templestowe. The game turned ugly quickly, the first quarter reeked of warning signs of what was to come. By the second, the Lions had booted 11 goals to two and established a 57-point margin. Late into the third, the Therry broke the 100-points barrier before closing out a relatively pedestrian final term and finishing 109-points clear at the final siren. The Bannister brothers Corey (6) and Jarrod (5) ended with bags; likewise did Mark Valenti (5) who starred in the small forward role and was deemed best on in his first game back in the seniors.

Ever seen a game where one side completely controls possession and the run of play but still manages to lose? Old Mentonians almost lived it as their extreme inaccuracy almost cost them the four points against MHSOB. The Unicorns kept their noses in front throughout the first quarter, making the most of the opportunities in drizzly DIVISION 1 — TIPS IN BOLD (YEARS TOTAL 17 / 68%) Old Geelong v MHSOB Yarra Valley v Therry Penola Williamstown CYMS v NOBS/St Pats Bulleen Templestowe v Old Mentonians Prahran Assumption v Whitefriars

conditions. Midway through the third term the Panthers had kicked a staggering 2.18, luckily for OMFC the embarrassing misses somewhat ceased before their work rate translated to three quick goals and they found themselves ahead by 14-points at the final change. The final quarter Old Mentonians developed a lead their ascendancy deserved, going on to win by 26-points. Dan Maitland was commanding in the midfield for the victors, while Michael Myers-Snyders was superb in the backline to reap top votes.

This week, Old Geelong host MHSOB at Como Park, the OG’s have found the consistency they lacked last year and should convincingly handle the Unicorns. Yarra Valley has the task of battling

Therry Penola, the Bushrangers caused an upset last week however the Lions are a different kettle of fish and will claim another healthy victory. NOBS/St Pats travel to Fearon Reserve to play Williamstown CYMS, the Nobs have been successful thus far in returning to Division 1, but will be tested against the CY’s. Tipping Williamstown because of home ground advantage. Bulleen Templestowe tackle Old Mentonians, the Bullants have struggled thus far, but a win at home against a young Panthers side could reinvigorate their season.

Unfortunately, the Bullants will be up against it and OMFC will take the four points. Prahran Assumption face Whitefriars, the Two Blues need to bounce back with a win and I believe they’ll do so and defeat the Friars.

DIVISION 2

@BrentyMann

BEARS TICKLED PINK Football, no matter what level it is played at, is a game about attitude and desire. Due to last Saturday’s conditions, if players didn’t bring the proper attitude or the right amount of desire they were found wanting. Given the constant overnight rain and the “patchy showers” experienced all day, most grounds were downgraded to a Heavy 10 and games reduced to a war of attrition. Players and coaches knew that victory would be earned by going “harder for longer”.

With the top-four sides playing one another, round 4 gave us an indication of which sides are contenders and which still have a way to go. After their brilliant come from behind win at Victoria Park, Kew shortened into outright favouritism.

While Old Paradians announced themselves as a legitimate contender as they knocked off Old Eltham at Garvey Oval and took their first significant scalp of the year.

To start the day Kew played host to 76 ladies in pink for a successful charity luncheon raising funds for the Breast Cancer Network Australia (BCNA).

The Bears donned a hybrid pink strip in honour of the function, the fantastic cause and a great initiative by the club. From the function to the football, Kew faced its biggest test so far as they faced a red hot St Mary’s Salesian keen to knock off the form side of Div 2. Both sides were sluggish early and after registering a miserly goal each for the term a tense battle ensued. The Saints showed just how good they are in the second as they piled on seven goals to one in trying conditions and seemingly had the game “in the bag”. The bad news didn’t stop there for Kew as they lost in-form ruckman Paul Brough through injury. Bough had been their best player this season, but through injury, opportunity presents itself and youngster Brandon Droessler shouldered the ruck duties for the second half and was outstanding. The second half would be about attitude and intent, could St Mary’s sustain their pressure and could Kew overcome the deficit. In the third it was the homeside that lifted and kicked the only three goals for the quarter, reducing the deficit to 15 points and 18

set-up an intriguing final term. St Mary’s kicked the first of the last but as the quarter wore on the Bears lifted and late goals to Allman and Brazzale sealed a momentous come from behind win on a fantastic day for a sensational cause.

After their round one failing against South Melbourne at home, Old Paradians have won four on the trot and find themselves in second spot. Led by David Boundy again with five goals the Raiders seem to have found that extra level of consistency needed to take that next step this year. Old Eltham have had a horror fortnight. Two weeks ago they were 3-0 and flying. Now after a shock loss to Elsternwick a week prior and going down to Paradians by 10 points last week they find themselves back in the pack. Paradians have another test of their improvement this week as they take on St Johns at Thomas Carroll. The Turtles however face a stern test against a whitehot Kew at Eltham College.

Ivanhoe was another side to make a statement last round as they beat the JOCs to the tune of six goals at Ivanhoe Park. It was a game both needed to win to stake their claim this season and the Hoes simply outworked a St Johns side that need to find consistency. In a torrid affair the game was blown open as Ivanhoe slammed on six goals in the third as St Johns could only muster a solitary behind.

Coach Steve Ware would have commended the JOCs willingness to fight on but lamented their third quarter performance. While Ivanhoe will head to Monash this week full of confidence in taking another step as they endeavour to break into the top-four.

After a stunning win last week, Elsternwick were brought back down to earth as Monash handed DIVISION 2 — TIPS IN BOLD (YEARS TOTAL 18 / 72%) Monash Gryphons v Ivanhoe Old Eltham v Kew St Mary’s Salesian v South Melbourne Dist.

them a 14 point defeat and recorded their second win of the year. In a scrappy and contested game, the Gryphons were up for a fight and their resilience and resolve got them over the line and some much needed confidence. The joy may be short lived as the Gryphons host an Ivanhoe side on the rise and for Elsternwick they face cellardweller Glen Eira in the early season battle to avoid the wooden-spoon position.

South Melbourne snapped a three game losing streak and recorded a resounding 50 point win against Glen Eira at home. In wet and slippery conditions the Districts were simply a class above the Saints all-day with a greater number of

avenues to goal the major difference between the two sides. To Glen Eira’s credit they fought hard and offered a great contest but it was simply a bridge too far. The win was soured however, as the Districts copped a few injuries which will no doubt test their depth this week. The win keeps South Melbourne in the chasing pack and was much needed as they head to Ferndale Park this week to face a St Mary’s outfit keen on redemption. For Glen Eira they host Elsternwick and they should view it as a realistic chance to break their duck.

DIVISION 3

Kris Neil

@KrisANeil

NOBODY IS SAFE Round 5 is evidence that nobody should get too comfortable in Division 3 this season. In a tipster’s worst nightmare, first, second and third on the ladder all suffered defeats in the testing conditions, leaving no team undefeated after the first five rounds. Just four points now separates first through to seventh and it would take a courageous pundit to predict how the ladder will look come finals time.

The battle for positions may be causing coaches and their teams angst in 2014, but for supporters and spectators alike, Division 3 is bound to make for fantastic viewing all year long.

REVIEW UHS-VU def. Richmond Central The unpredictable UHS-VU ended Richmond Central’s unbeaten start to the season with a 38-point win at Brens Oval. The Vultures got the jump on Marcus Goonan’s Snakes in the contest by bursting out to a 40-point first half lead then coasted for the rest of the game with that lead hovering between six and seven goals. Rhys Kirk put his wet weather skills on display with four goals for the home side in the tough conditions while teammate Aaron Pincott was best afield for UHS-VU. South Mornington def. by St Francis Xavier St Francis were the major beneficiaries of the round five pandemonium, shooting up to fourth on the ladder after dismantling South Mornington by 84 points at Citation Oval. The X-Men enjoyed a wide spread of contributors in the muck, with ten players getting amongst the goal-kickers. The Tigers remain the only winless team in Division 3 after five rounds and at this stage it is looking like being a tough season for the 2012 Division 4 premiers.

La Trobe University def. by Eley Park Sharks Eley Park continues to be the section’s surprise packet, backing up last round’s win over UHSVU with a 15-point win over La Trobe at La Trobe University. A third quarter lapse in concentration cost the Trobers dearly, as the Sharks strung 20

together four unanswered goals. The Shark’s got huge performances from both Michael Paolini and Matt Dyson in the absence of skipper Matt Costorphin while spearhead Noel Bahnsen continued his goal-kicking form with another four majors.

Power House def. Albert Park A late change of venue may have been the difference as Power House registered their second consecutive win in a low scoring affair against Albert Park at Ross Gregory Oval. Amazingly there were only seven goals kicked in the match with Power House kicking 4.7 (31) to the Falcon’s 3.6 (24). Given the final margin, Albert Park will be ruing the local council’s inability to have their home ground ready in time that ultimately led to the fixture swap with Power House. The Falcons will now host Power House later in the season as a result. The win continues an improved stretch of form for Ant Voyage’s men, after going winless in their first three games of the season, Power House are now part of a clutch of clubs chasing a spot in the six.

Swinburne University def. Aquinas In the upset of the round, Aquinas bounced back from their disappointing loss to the Northern Blues by defeating the Division 3 leaders Swinburne Uni by 46-points at St James Park. Russell Barnes’ men controlled the contest from start to finish, extending their lead in every quarter. Nick Morrison-Storey put together another stellar performance for the Bloods, linking up well with forwards Sam Williams (6) and Callum Cormack (3) who kicked nine goals for the day between them.

Northern Blues def. by Emmaus St Leos The Northern Blues were also on the receiving end of an upset after succumbing to Emmaus St Leos by seven points at Ruthven Reserve. The Blues fantastic start to the year now faced with a reality check of being outside the top six after DIVISION 3 — TIPS IN BOLD (YEARS TOTAL 22 / 73%) Aquinas v Albert Park Northern Blues v UHS-VU St Francis Xavier v Eley Park Sharks La Trobe University v Swinburne University Emmaus St Leos v Richmond Central Power House v South Mornington

five rounds. The Blues looked set to escape with a win after five third quarter goals gave them momentum heading into the final term, however the Animals were as devasting and more in the final quarter as they kicked seven goals to four to pinch the four points. Captain Paul Baranello lead the way for his side with four goals in the winning effort while brother Nathan and Daniel Hill were also first-rate.

PREVIEW Aquinas shocked everyone with a win against Swinburne last week and will be looking to extend that form against the Falcons. Richmond Central travel to Emmaus St Leos and it is well known that a bump in the tracks can sometimes derail a train, so the Snakes will want to get back on the winners column straight away against the volatile Animals. Swinburne were comfortably

THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2014

handled by the Bloods last weekend, however they should be too good for Brenton Hunt’s tenth placed La Trobe University. South Mornington have been improving, although I expect Power House to string a third win in a row together as well as using this match as a chance to improve their poor percentage in the clash. The winner of St Francis Xavier and Eley Park Sharks will jump clear of the chasing pack in the first eight point game of the year. It’s hard to pick either side with great confidence but home ground advantage gives the X-men the edge in this encounter.If there is such thing as a season defining game in round six, this is it. The Blues will be fighting an uphill battle all year if they can’t defeat the inform Vultures this week. Having said that, UHSVU might take the points.

DIVISION 4

BOX HILL, MANNINGHAM SLIP UNDER THE RADAR Even though we are only heading in to round six, plenty of Division 4 punters have already made up their minds on the teams who will find themselves at the top and tail of the ladder come the pointy end of the season. With this in mind, there is plenty of interest regarding which teams will fill the bottom end of the top four in 2014. Round five might have given us a few clues on who to watch out for with Manningham and Box Hill North winning their second and third consecutive games respectively.

Westbourne Grammarians let another three-quarter time lead slip, whilst the Hawks and Pies recorded strong wins once again.

NORTH BRUNSWICK (3.2-20) LOST TO HAWTHORN (9.12-66) North Brunswick put in a spirited performance but were no match for the table topping Hawks. After a scoreless first quarter, the home side rallied in the second to bring the deficit back to twelve points.

However, Hawthorn’s class showed in a five goal final term, which ensured their record this season remained unblemished. Simon Mair, in his 50th game for the club was best for the home side who presented the Hawks with their stiffest competition thus far in 2014. Hawthorn will return to Rathmines for the first time in three weeks to host Point Cook, whilst North Brunswick will face a Westbourne Grammarians outfit who will be desperate to put four quarters together having relinquished two consecutive three-quarter time leads.

CANTERBURY (16.12-108) DEFEATED CHADSTONE (6.6-42) Canterbury made the best of muddy conditions with a seven goal first term, which saw them burst away to a forty-point lead at quarter time.

Conditions improved as the game progressed and a more even contest ensued for the remainder.

Tom Eckersley was a standout for the victors whilst Anthony Bailey and Nicholas Boothman looked dangerous despite limited opportunities for Chadstone. Canterbury will look to build on the momentum they accrued against Chadstone as they head to Ransford Oval to take on the undefeated West Brunswick today.

BOX HILL NORTH (17.11-113) DEFEATED WESTBOURNE GRAMMARIANS (16.12-108) Box Hill North registered their third consecutive win against a Grammarians outfit who seem to have slightly lost their way after pleasing early season form. The contest was tightly fought throughout, with no more than two straight kicks separating the sides at any major break. Daniel Penny continued his rampant 2014 form with a bag of five, which could have been considerably more had it not been for inaccurate kicking. At the other end, Carl Chesterman had a similar outing, finishing with six goals six. Having forfeited another three-quarter time advantage, Grammarians will be keen to sure up a spot in the top four when they host North Brunswick this afternoon.

WEST BRUNSWICK (17.8-110) DEFEATED DRAGONS (4.9-33) West Brunswick comfortably accounted for the Dragons, thanks largely to a nine goal opening term. From then on, the Dragons battened down the hatches with plenty of bodies behind the ball as they attempted to contain their destructive opponents. Whilst this approach worked to an extent, the Dragons forgot about scoring at the other end and the rest of the match became a congested ‘stoppage-athon’. None the less, the Pies went through the motions and did what was required to register their fifth win on the bounce.

POINT COOK (9.10-64) LOST TO MANNINGHAM COBRAS (13.11-89) Manningham seem to have their 2014 season back on track having recorded their second win in a row and third of the season in the west against Point Cook. The game momentum swung back and forth through the afternoon with Point Cook bouncing back from a disappointing first term with an explosive six goal second term which saw them lead at the main change. Unfortunately for Point Cook, they weren’t able to maintain that kind of form throughout the remainder of the game.

The triumphant Cobras were well led by multiple goal scorers Stuart Fisher and Daniel Wills.

THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2014

Five rounds to date have given us some reasonable indicators of where teams are at in 2014, but there is still plenty of footy to be played in Division 4.

Can the Grammarians put four quarters together?

Are Box Hill North and the Cobras the real deal?

Or can one of the other mid-field teams put an exclamation mark next to their name and take down the Pies or Hawks? There’s plenty of questions to be answered heading into round six and plenty of coaches, players and supporters hoping they get the answers they’re after.

CLUB WAREHOUSE RISING STAR 2014 LUKE BARRY – OLD XAVERIANS This weeks Rising Star Nomination is Luke Barry.

Luke’s first year at the Club was in 2013, after finishing at Xavier College in 2012. His first year was impressive, playing 19 games in the Under 19 Premier side, including the Grand Final, as a bottom age player. In 2014, Luke has taken his football to the next step, producing a solid preseason. Although still eligible for Under 19’s, he made his senior debut in Round 1. In the early part of the season, Luke has proven to be a versatile old-school utility type player who has the ability to play forward or back, and on a short or tall opponent. This versatility, has allowed Luke to play various roles throughout the year, and standing tall to each task. Outside of football, Luke is currently studying Environmental Engineering and Science, full time at Monash University.

* to be eligible for the club Warehouse Rising Star, a player must be born no earlier than 1993 and playing his first full season of senior football.

@GeoffreyReilley

5 YEARS AGO – 2009 Old Brighton firmed in fourth spot on the A Section ladder when they inflicted St Bedes Mentone Tigers’ first loss for the season, 12.16 to 6.18 at the Beach Oval. The ‘Beders’ got within striking distance early in the final quarter but the ‘Tonners’ drew away for an excellent win. Best: Marston, Ainley, Smith, Edge, Mason, Olliver (OB) and Shakaib, Hellier, Richards (3), Bliesner, Monaghan, Corda (StBMT).

In B Section Old Melburnians drew away from a gallant Hampton Rovers’ outfit in the final term to win 20.13 to 13.15. OM’s were now on top of the ladder. Best: Wilmoth, Greene, Miller, Morrison (3), Davis, Gardiner (OM) and Duddy, Dallas (3), McCarthy, Verlin, Fletcher, Alexander (HR) Andrew Torney (Uni Blacks) and Max Burgess (Old Trinity) both recorded their 100th game.

10 YEARS AGO – 2004 In D3 section, Oakleigh were expected to have an easier game against bottom placed Mount Lilydale but were trailing at half time. Following some sharp words from coach, Chris Moore, the Oaks lifted their work rate and kicked 6.12 in the third quarter to take hold of the game and won in a canter 19.24 to 11.6. Best: Britt, Bromley, Treacey, Collins, Furnell, K Holden (O) and Kellett, Hansford, Cunningham, Leonard, Carstens (MtL).

In D4, North Brunswick and Eltham had a great tussle after Eltham trailed by 6 goals at half time, they rallied and it went goal for goal before North Brunswick held on to win by 3 points. Best: Santecroce, Aref, Robertson (NthB) and Panetta, McKenzie, Jorgenson (Elth).

20 YEARS AGO – 1994 In C Section Whitefriars were surprisingly behind at half time against Old Geelong and copped a blast at the main break. With Carbone and Reidy running riot in the third term, the Friars kicked 9 goals to 1 and increased their winning lead to 21.16 to 14.8 at siren time. Best: Flanagan, Jenkins, Carbone (4) (W) and Taylor, Glascott, O’Halloran(OG).

In D Section, St Kevins defeated Old Camberwell 19.18 to 8.8 and took top spot on the ladder.

Best: M Getson, Simonetti, J Jones, B Cooper, M Cooper, Bourke (Marcellin) and Crutchfield, Hibbins and Parsons (Collegians).

Just when Kew looked like upsetting Old Xaverians, the moves of Burne to the ruck, Curtain to CHF and Armstrong to FF resulted in 10 goals to the Xavs in 18 minutes and a 6 goal victory.

John Kanis played his 100th game for Caulfield Grammarians and during that time was a dual, senior best and fairest winner. Old Scotch saluted John Morgan on his 200th game. John was a key member of the 1977 B Section premiership and the 1978 A Section premiership. John also served as a VAFA selector following his retirement.

40 YEARS AGO – 1974 In F Section, North Brunswick trailed Old Mentonians all day but drew level and then kicked the winning goal in the dying moments to win 10.10 to 9.10. Best: Carell, I Duncan, B Duncan (4) (NB) and Harrison, Peel, Ingram (3) (OM).

It was 150 games for Elsternwick’s vice-captain Alan (Hawk) Ramsay. Hawk had been a stalwart on and off the field for the ‘Wicks’ and had won both a competition and a club best and fairest as well as being a past captain of the club.

50 YEARS AGO – 1964 Old Melburnians and Melbourne High School Old Boys, battling for fourth place, turned on a great game with MHSOB well ahead at the main break and then fought off a great challenge by OM’s in the second half. Best – Nelson, McKnight, Reed (MHSOB) and A Balzey, Clark and Kerr (OM’s).

John Maunsell played his 100th game for Geelong.

The winless OMs started their game against Old Scotch well to only be down by 3 points at quarter time and 14 at half time, but from that point on it was all Scotch with Daggian kicking 9 goals for the game and shooting up the goal kicking leaderboard. The red hot Beaumaris recorded their first loss of 2014 going down to St Kevins at Banksia Reserve. SKOB shot out of the blocks kicking 5.1 to 0.1 by quarter time and they were never troubled from that point kicking 4 goals a quarter for the rest of the game. Lewin (6) was electric throughout and Lattanzio was

@jdonohoe12 outstanding for the league leaders. St Bedes/ Mentone took on De La Salle at Brindisi St but fell short losing their 5th straight game despite leading at half time. A huge 3rd term by De La had them kick 7 goals to put the game out of reach for the Tigers. The Old Xaverians took on an old foe in St Bernards and although Xavs were within striking distance throughout, St Bernards were too good in the end, running away 21 point winners at a soggy Stradbroke Park. A 4-goal-to-1 second quarter helped the Snowdogs get over the line.

Caven, Hedley and O’Halloran were St Bernards best players in a win that send them to third.

U19 Section 2 Report

@LewisEmmerson The top of the table clash Brighton by 7 points. Jordan Quaile deserved to between Fitzroy and University be best afield for Blacks while Jack Knight almost Blues provided a great contest dragged his Brighton over the line. The scoreboard on the perfect Victoria Park resembled that of a Rugby League match between deck. The Roys held their own Mazenod and Collegians. Mazenod earned the and finished with a 4-goal win four points with a 26-22 victory. Stephen Foster, on Friday night. Fitzroy’s Joe Hill claimed another Peter Rotzanitis and Daniel Hayes were Mazenod’s bag, kicking 3 while Joshua Cross created some highlights of his own for Blues. Caulfield Gr. are yet trio of goal kickers. Old Trinity has grabbed top to register a win as they fell to Parkdale Vultures spot with a convincing 51 point win over a strong by 52 points. Vultures forward Jack Francis Whitefriars. Joseph Campbell seemingly cannot dominated kicking 5 goals in the win. Zac Amos be stopped, doing as he pleased kicking 5 goals was more than handy for Caulfield. A low-scoring for Trinity. Whitefriars Ryan Malt gave another thriller saw University Blacks get the edge over Old solid performance kicking 3 of his own.

U19 Section 3 with Tom Connolly @tomconnolly15

Another week and another round for the Under 19’s in Section 3 of the VAFA. Williamstown CYMS have strung together another win beating the AJAX by 38 points, Ebinger had another great game for Williamstown kicking 4 majors for the day. St Mary’s Salesian were unable to carry on their winning form from last week with a loss to Old Ivanhoe by 32 points, the Hoes’ Crouch kicked 6 goals for the day. Marcellin had a fantastic home win over Old Camberwell, ending the day a convincing 70 points ahead and Burns for Marcellin helping the cause by kicking 44

9 for the day. Old Xavierians had a much needed win over Therry Penola defeating them by 87 points and Fitzpatrick for Old Xavs kicked 3 for the day. Finally Old Carey had a demolishing win over the Northern Blues running away with a 167 point win as Nixon kicked 8 for the Panthers. So as it stands after five rounds, The pacesetters are Old Ivanhoe and Old Carey, both undefeated thus far.

An outright leader will be established this week, as the two unbeaten sides face each other today.

At the other end, Northern Blues are still winless and let’s hope they get on the winner’s list soon, although it’s a tough ask against Xavs today.

UMPIRES

Steve McCarthy & Kit Harvey

MILESTONE UP FOR TUGGER This week at the Chadstone v Manningham Cobras game we’ll see Peter ‘Tugger’ Pullen run his 200th VAFA game. Tugger came to the VAFA in 2001 and has a few hundred games clocked up elsewhere. He lists being presented with the Andy Carrick Award in 2009 as a highlight. (The Andy Carrick Award is highly-regarded and is presented to a member of the VAFAUA who does not reach the higher sections but still performs admirably each week throughout the season in the lower sections). Along with many other VAFAUA umpires he runs games with the South Metro Junior Football League on a Sunday.

Jonathan Auditore and Wayne “Chuck” Hinton, both VAFAUA umpires co-ordinate the “senior umpires group” which Tugger runs in with young umpires allocated to run with experienced umpires to help develop their skills and send them to the VAFA. In Tugger’s words, “In my case it is the very senior umpires group and the experienced and skills development part might be questionable also!”

Anyone contributing to the development of young umpires needs to be commended. He’s also had a couple of stints as an international umpire by umpiring games in Japan and was a recipient of the VAFAUA’s Ten Year Service Award last year.

Well Tugger. Have a great day. And for all you others out there, don’t forget to let us know if you have an upcoming milestone.

MISTAKEN IDENTITY The top knot hair style is making a resurgence in modern footy. For those who need examples, Hawthorn’s Chance Bateman was famous for his and Bomber swingman Michael Hurley has had a crack with the hair tie this season to mixed reviews. Now, it’s been spotted in the VAFA umpiring ranks. Young gun Josh Thorburn has been sporting the ‘do and, frankly, pulls it off with great skill and flair.

So much so, that at a recent coaching session in which one of Josh’s (correct) decisions was featured on the big screen, fellow field umpire Christian Schaefer mistook Josh for a member of the fairer sex. Admittedly, the pair haven’t had a lot to do with one another, but it’s a mistake that won’t happen again any time soon. We are hoping a nickname comes out of that debacle.

40 MINUTES AND COUNTING In a game with more than 150 stoppages due to ball ups and throw ins, it’s a wonder only the second quarter of the game between Old Scotch and Old Brighton lasted 40+ minutes.

On a wet ground with a glue pot in the centre, the ball repeatedly skidded out of bounds.

It’s a good thing VFL boundary umpire Ryan O’Shea was on deck to toss the footy in during the VFL split round. Field umpire Russell “Rusty” Davidson could be recovering for months to come.

This was the problem all over Melbourne last Saturday where we all got to appreciate that old saying, “Well, it is a winter game.” And Melbourne being the city we love, after a day of torrential rain, of course we had bright sunshine at about 4:30. We love it!

ON THE COMEBACK TRAIL Former Umpires Corner poison pen and VAFA umpiring legend Leah Gallagher is officially on the comeback trail after a long-term injury, having been spotted at training several times in the past month. It’s hard to imagine a world in which she’s not officiating in the VAFA. Plenty of club people have been asking about the popular Leah, so we all wish her all the very best in her return to footy!

FORWARDS DAY OUT Another four seasons in one day was again experienced in round 5, but it didn’t stop some team’s power forwards from having a day out.

After two disappointing weeks, UHS-VU showed improvement, especially on the scoreboard as they fell just 7 points short of Old Paradians. The Uni boys had the lead at quarter time but could not keep it up as Paradians were able to gain a level of control to see them over the line. Sean Money was again dominate down forward kicking four in the win. In the clash between second and third, St Bernard’s went back to back in victories away from home against Williamstown CYMS. The Snowdogs third quarter was outstanding as they piled on six goals to one and claimed the 64 point victory with five multiple goalkickers. Point Cook had a day to forget as they were only able to score four behinds against powerhouse ladder leaders Mazenod. The Bulldogs battled hard all day but Mazenod’s pressure was outstanding, as Kieran McKeogh had a field day with six goals and best on ground for the Nodders as it’s back to the drawing board for the Bulldogs.

University Blues had a positive start to their game against Westbourne Grammarians but the Blues second quarter was disappointing. After half time Westbourne came out a different side and claimed the 34 point victory away from home.

Norm Nugent

GET YOUR BOOTS ON Wet and slippery conditions meant low scores and congested matches were the order of the day in Round 5. A positive result in Section 3 was the emergence of La Trobe University, in their comeback season, as the team to defeat for the premiership.

ROUND 5 REVIEW SECTION 1 Undefeated leaders, Hawthorn with their multi pronged forward line, proved far too talented for Mt Lilydale, who as a consequence of their 38 loss, have dropped to third place. Antonio Brizzi with four goals was again Hawthorn’s best player.

As expected, Old Xaverians bounced back into contention for August honours with an 87 point drubbing of Old Geelong who managed just two goals for the day. Sam Chester for the Xaverians kicked five goals to singularly outscore Old Geelong. Prahran/ Assumption tightened their grip on fourth place through their 48 point win over Masala. Nicholas Mitchell with four goals was among the “Two Blue’s” best as were were Luke Farrell and Jason Storer significant contributors.

SECTION 2 Richmond Central managed to gain the lead early in their match against Eley Park. This proved decisive in the worsening rain and mud because Eley Park were never able to wrest the initiative before finishing 12 points in arrears. Best for Richmond were: Charles Logan, Jesse Malloy and Anthony Pruscino. For the vanquished “Sharks”; Stewart Andrew, Bradley Jackson and Jarrad Baker were best. Bulleen Templestowe stayed with leaders, Emmaus/ St Leo’s for a quarter before the undefeated leaders gained control and built their lead at each change before winning by 61 points. Mark Petryk (4 goals) was again best for Emmaus/ St Leo’s. In a similar vein, Therry Penola started brightly against Williamstown C.Y.M.S. and 58

led into the second term, before the Williamstown strength and superior talent took them to the lead.

Willy’s advantage was 25 points by the final siren.

SECTION 3 Undefeated teams La Trobe University and North Old Boys met under lights on the big University Oval on Friday evening. Although the “Trobers took the initiative from the outset, it was their two six goal quarters which really built their 108 point victory. North Old Boy’s/ St Patrick’s players must now wonder why their home fixture was played at their opponent’s home ground! Kew scored a come from behind victory when they outlasted University High School/ V.U. and won by fourteen points. Kew trailed by a mere two points at half time but in line with their recent pattern of play.

The third term was controlled by the Zookeepers, who led by 10 points at the last change. Then against the trend of play, Kew stormed home to record a meritorious victory which has consolidated their hold on fourth place. Nawid Zahar (5 goals) was the star for Kew. Third placed Melbourne High School Old Boys won by forfeit from the Dragons.

PREVIEW OF ROUND 6 SECTION 1 Prahran/ Assumption should consolidate their tenuous hold on fourth place by defeating the winless Masala. In an early match, I expect Old Xaverians to comfortably defeat Old Geelong whose 2014 displays have not been of the standard displayed over their two previous seasons. Leaders, Hawthorn should continue on their winning way by defeating second placed Mt Lilydale whom I suspect does not possess the depth of talent that Hawthorn will bring into the game.

SECTION 1 TIPS IN BOLD (YEARS TOTAL 13 / 87%) Masala v Hawthorn Mt Lilydale v Old Xaverians Old Geelong v Prahran Assumption

THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2014

SECTION 2 Bulleen Templestowe host Therry Penola in an early match which could see the “Bullants” record their first victory in 2014. With little between the two teams this season, I select Bulleen Templestowe at home and with the early start also favouring them. The winner of the Williamstown C Y.M.S. and Richmond Central match will secure second place. On the Fearon reserve I favour the local “C.Y.s to triumph. Leaders, Emmaus/ St Leo’s host fourth placed Eley Park. I doubt the “Sharks” possess the depth of talent needed to defeat the “Animals” who are enjoying a successful season.

SECTION 2 TIPS IN BOLD (YEARS TOTAL 10 / 67%) Bulleen Templestowe v Therry Penola Williamstown CYMS v Richmond Central Emmaus St Leos v Eley Park

SECTION 3 North Old Boys/ St Patrick’s should be able to defeat Kew who have not been able to maintain scoreboard pressure throughout an entire game this season. University High School/ V.U. should return to the winning list at the expense of the Dragons. A win will place the “Combine” back in calculations for securing fourth place. Undefeated leaders, La Trobe University face a danger game at Melbourne High School where the small ground will negate La Trobe’s running game. In their previous meeting the leaders, struggled to assert control over the “Unicorns” in poor conditions at Bundoora. La Trobe is worthy of my selection.
