1THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2014

April 5 is the earliest start to a VAFA season in living

memory. Having a stand-alone Premier Grand Final

and Easter occurring late in April has caused this

earlier than usual commencement time. Previously

Round 1 has been scheduled as late as the last

weekend in April. This early commencement has

caused some issues for clubs fi nalising grounds

and teams which in turn has impacted on fi xtures.

Still, we got underway last weekend and with

Premier joining the rest of the competition we

have a full book of matches this weekend.

The safety of all players has been highlighted with

an unfortunate incident where Newcastle Knights

player Alex McKinnon was left a suspected

quadriplegic. McKinnon was brought out of an

induced coma two weeks ago following surgery

on his fractured C4 and C5 vertebrae.

Last weekend two country football matches were

called off after players suff ered neck injuries. An

Ovens and Murray League match between Albury

and Yarrawonga was called off in the second

quarter after an ambulance was called to transport

Albury player James McQuillan to hospital with

concerns for his neck. McQuillan had scans at

Albury Hospital on Saturday night before he was

placed in an induced coma for safety reasons and

fl own to Melbourne.

The Heathcote District League clash between

Elmore and Heathcote was also abandoned in the

second quarter after Heathcote coach Grant Ford

copped a knock in general play and hurt his neck.

Recently the AFL has been strong on preventing

the potential for such injuries and have deemed

that any head high contact with a player would

result in a free kick being given to the player who

received the contact. This no tolerance principle

may have led to many players leading with the

head and working a free kick. As a response the

AFL has this year decided that this action is to be

outlawed and any player leading with the head

will not be given the free.

The NRL cases and the AFL incidents are diff erent.

The NRL case involved a tackle where a player

was lifted and ended up head fi rst onto the

ground. This type of tackle is outlawed in the AFL

and is thankfully rarely seen on our grounds. In

Australian Rules the problem occurs when a player

leaves his head unprotected and receives contact

either from the front or side.

When I grew up playing football we were always

taught to protect your head. Maybe the game was

a lot rougher then and the elements of protecting

yourself were always at the front of mind. Possibly,

today’s players don’t have that same fear element

of getting met aggressively, some may say

illegally, by an opposition player and are therefore

less inclined to concern themselves about safety.

When approaching the ball I was always instructed

to turn your body and get your backside between

yourself and the oncoming player – never leave

your head out there to get knocked off . Not only

would this protect your head but also give you

the opportunity to receive a free for in the back.

A much better result than trying to work a free for

around the neck.

One could argue whether paying every free kick

for head high incidents has led to more players

leading with the head but we can’t argue that

players need to be better educated in learning

to protect themselves and approach the ball in

the safest way. Australian Rules is a diffi cult game

to master with players approaching you from

all angles, so teaching our players the best way

to protect themselves is a responsibility of all

coaches, especially those at the junior level.

WATCH EVERY PREMIER GAME AT WWW.VAFATV.COM

Welcome to the 2014 season. Whilst the rest

of the competition started last week it didn’t

quite feel right checking livescores.vafa.com.au

last week and not seeing any Premier matches

taking place. Given the recent AfL Victoria Metro

Championships result and indeed the recent

results of the VAFA’s rep program, it could quite

reasonably be argued that Premier Section

of the VAFA is the best senior competition

in country outside of the AFL and the State

Leagues. We have some wonderful players,

astute pioneering coaches and of course a great

standard of footy to watch every week and it is

great to have it back.

The stakes don’t get any higher unless you are

in a fi nal. Round 1 is the home and away fi xture

win most coveted by every single club. A whole

preseason of training, learning game plans and

preparing for a match that can kick start your

year. Win round one and all is well in the world,

all the preparation has been worth it. Lose and

more questions asked and fi ngers pointed

than an episode of Poirot. I may have lost many

readers with the reference to Poirot, but the fall

out from a round one loss is magnifi ed more

than any other loss throughout the season.

Remember the endless analysis of the AFL sides

that lost their opener. Season over! Game plan

up in smoke? Off fi eld distractions! What have

they been doing all summer? Just some of the

many accusations that were thrown. So what are

the prospects of the ten clubs striving to be there

on the (second) last Saturday in September.

Beaumaris - The Sharks were magnifi cent early

last year before a late season rally saw them

earn a well deserved second crack in Premier.

Tom Dean and Matt Petering are stars, but they

do bat deep. Whilst they might be disgruntled

missing out Jason Blake returning to his old

club, they have secured the services of Raphael

Clarke. They also targeted and got Steve

Lawrence back to a senior coaching job and he

takes the helm of a side with more upside in

them than many might think.

Collegians - Played two practice matches against

St Bernards and Old Trinity, within these two

matches the men in purple played two of the best

quarters of football they have played in sometime.

Both were opening term assaults so look for

Collegians to jump out early in their matches.

Much to improve on last year and promisingly

have 17 Premier Sections premiership players fi t

and available. The loss of Jack Bull to Old Scotch

hurts but the biggest in is new senior co-coach

Darren Baxter to join Mark Hibbins. They have

plenty to be quietly confi dent about.

De La Salle - Much like last year ‘s week-to-week

team, there have been a number of changes,

most notably the coaching group, with Paul

Satterly bringing his AFL and VFL experience

to Waverley Park. Matt Fieldsend and Sam

Williams are back on a more permanent basis,

but Woodrow Medallist Jake Williams will likely

spend the whole year at Collingwood’s VFL.

Importantly they have gained height with old

boys Ant Furato (Frankston),Oscar Persson

(Sandy) joining Tom McMahon back at the club.

Old Brighton - After the euphoria of the Club’s

2013 Premiership, Old Brighton Grammarians

are thrilled to test their abilities back in Premier

Section. Simon Williams has most of last year’s

squad intact, and although the Tonners will

miss James North and Tom Mariani, who is

overseas, they do regain ruckman Matt Smith,

experienced Josh Homann and B&F winner Matt

Gadsden. Youngsters Harry Cannon, Charlie

King and Ollie Cavallaro will step up.

Old Scotch –The Cardinals are due. They have

been in years before but it feels diff erent

this time. Andrerson and Powell are in year

three their plan and they have one of the best

midfi elders in the comp returning home in Jack

Bull, also Eugene Routman steps up from AJAX.

The services of Lindsay Gilbee will be reduced, as

will those of Woodrow runner up, Nick Jamieson

and young gun Jordan Clarke (Footscray VFL).

However, Old Scotch have depth and some

quality youngsters coming through.

Old Trinity – Whilst devastated with a Grand

Final loss last year, the OT’s will be a far superior

group to the one that departed Premier in 2012.

Brendan Iezzi is one of the premium midfi elders

in the competition, Henry Winter will ruck and

Jake Walsh are good inclusions. Only real losses

are Christian Butler (overseas) and the retirement

of a certain Andrew Ramsden (see page 48). I

expect Old Trinity to be very competitive.

Old Xaverians – I wrote a headline last year of

death taxes and Old Xaverians playing fi nals.

It is hard to look past the reigning premiers to

again be amongst the contenders. Nick Bourke is

an out as Dom Berry takes sole control but the

other outs are also telling. Ryan Colbert and Sam

Tagliabue both depart for the country and there

were retirements of fantastic players like Lynch,

Sapuppo and Rogerson. The two Ambroses Pat

(AFL) and Murphy (VFL) are also out. Nick Wynne

was to play VFL but having broken his foot will

most likely resume in red and black. Cayden

Beetham is a great inclusion and there is plenty of

depth so Xavs fans shouldn’t be too concerned.

St Bedes/Mentone Tigers – As demoralising

as last year’s grand fi nal loss might have been

there is no doubt that the Tigers would be

taking the positives out of the day. They had

so much youth in that side and their upwards

curve is looking great. Mick Dwyer is a fantastic

leader and an onfi eld leader in James Tyquin

has returned as has Pat Liston from Bonbeach.

Unfortunately Dean Porter and Hiwad Shaikaib

will both spend large chunks of the year

overseas but there are plenty of reasons to smile

at Brindisi St.

St Bernards – The rumblings from the Snakepit

have been big in the pre-season. New coach

Anthony Rock has instilled a belief that the

players can make an impact on Premier this

year. Liam Wilkinson and Tim Harvey have

retiredwhilst Van Meel, Houlihan and Gosso

departed for other competitions. Chad Jones

(Claremont) is the big in with Alex McLeod and

Jake Calvery new plus Josh Madden returning

from overseas the list is primed to fi re.

University Blacks – If it has been noisy at the

Snakepit, then the off -season whispers have

been deafening at the University. Blacks – and

Blues for that matter – are expected to do

very well in their respective sections this year.

McCauley is out, but the recruits of Jason Blake

and Simon Hogan are testament to the pulling

power of the Blacks and by all accounts new

coach Cam Roberts has taken to the full time job

like a duck to water.

Five new coaches, ten great teams and a few

splinters in the bum has me sitting on the fence

when it comes to producing a ladder. So I will

present the following crystal ball predictions

and wish you all the best in 2014. Premiers: Old

Xaverians; Big Improver: Old Trinity; Woodrow:

Chris Waller (Old Xavs)


Round one saw AJAX give Old Ivanhoe a baptism

of fi re in their welcome back to Premier B footy;

Uni Blues make a statement to the competition

against Old Melburnians; Caulfi eld take care

of Old Haileybury away; Fitzroy account for

St Kevins at TH King; and relegated Old Carey

outclass the promoted Mazenod. Good luck if

you tipped that!

AJAX won the inaugural Henry Jolson Cup at

Chelsworth Park, by beating Old Ivanhoe in

the fi rst fi xture for the season. After unfurling

their Premier C Premiership fl ag, Old Ivanhoe

struggled to put any scoreboard pressure on

their rivals. David Fayman kicked fi ve goals for

the victors, while debutant Dean Rotenberg

was a pest up forward sneaking four majors.

Delmonte was good across half back before

a cameo forward with two goals for the home

team, but it was not enough. The Hoes added a

fl utter of goals in the fi nal term; but the match

was well and truly done at that point. AJAX

proved themselves as worthy contenders for

season 2014, while Old Ivanhoe were simply

outplayed at a higher grade of footy and will

surely bounce back this week.

Henry Jolson was a legendary member of AJAX’s

fi rst premiership in 1966, a game they won

against Old Ivanhoe. The centre half forward

was one of the club’s all-time greats, a brilliant

high mark, a long, accurate kick and a sprint

champion..Jolson passed away last year at 66,

and both clubs agreed to honour him with a

commemorative game and cup each season.

At Melbourne University, the home side brought

all their Premier Section class with them to

Premier B. Eight goals in the fi rst quarter, one

of which came from a Dom Nixon hanger, saw

them lead 54 points to 14 at the fi rst break

and have the game fi rmly in their control. Old

Melburnians dug their heels in during the

second quarter, slowing the pace of the game

and adding some scoreboard pressure. Led by

Paule, Old Melburnians constricted the midfi eld

in the third quarter kicking one goal to the

Blues’ none. However the fl oodgates well and

truly opened in the fi nal term, with the Blues

making good use of Cam Williams’ dominance in

the ruck and adding 10 goals to the scoreboard.

Dom Nixon kicked four for the game and was

seemingly everywhere in the Blues’ forward

50, while youngsters Williams, Blakely, Curnow

and Rippon were more than handy around

the ground. Hywood kicked four of Old

Melburninan’s eight goals in an impressive

performance, while Paule and Cumbrae-Stewart

showed some grit in the midfi eld.

With no one over 26, it was a young Caulfi eld

Gr. team who took to the park against Old

Haileybury. Noticeably bigger bodied after a

preseason under professional strength and

conditioning program, Caulfi eld looked to have

progressed to a higher standard of football.

After losing star recruit Andrew McGuinness

to a hamstring injury early in the fi rst quarter,

Caulfi eld’s youngsters put on a good display

to account for their opponents by fi ve goals.

O’Keefe was strong for Caulfi eld up forward,

slotting four majors, while Leigh and Price were

ubiquitous around stoppages. Meehan led

the home side’s goal kicking charge with four

and Povey, Witherow and Nicolopoulos were

best around the ground in a game that Old

Haileybury can take a number of positives from.

In what was an unpredictable game between

sides that didn’t play in the Premier B last

season, it was the relegated outfi t that got the

jump. Old Carey began the game with seven

goals in the opening term to the Northerly

end, which was being favoured by a moderate

breeze. Carey’s inaccuracy in front of goal

gave Mazenod chances throughout out the

game, but Old Carey’s skill was too much to

overcome. The Carey midfi eld combination of

Rice, Smithwick, Howat and Roach were very

clean around the ground and moved the ball

decisively. Port Melbourne release player Guy

Dickson, who is still under–19 eligible, played an

outstanding fi rst up senior game and alongside

fellow youngster Andrew Sloane demonstrating

there is some quality up and coming talent in

the Carey ranks.. Inglis, Mann and Phibbs were

best on for Mazenod, who have learnt some

valuable lessons in higher grade footy and will

move forward positively into next week.

Fitzroy proved too strong for St Kevins at T H

King Oval, coming from behind to win by 14

points. Turner starred up forward for Fitzroy,

kicking fi ve goals, as Baker and Mackay made

the play around the ground. Kanakis was good

for the home side up forward, kicking three

goals, as were Karageorgiou and Ring, however

it wasn’t enough to stop the run of Fitzroy who

over ran St Kevins late in the game.

Next week sees Old Haileybury travel to the

historic Brunswick Street Oval in Fitzroy and

have a chance to add themselves to the winners

column. In an enticing encounter, Old Carey host

Uni Blues in a clash of the relegated.Mazenod

have their work cut out, making the trip to Gary

Smorgon Oval for a fi xture against the powerful

and inform AJAX. Old Ivanhoe have a chance

to bounce back against Caulfi eld at Glenhuntly

Oval. Finally , rivals Old Melburnians play St

Kevins at Junction Oval in a game that will see

one of the two more fancied pre season sides

begin the season an unfavourable 0-2.

Hampton was the quickest away, Peninsula is surging forward, Marcellin have settled on the speed closely followed by Old Camberwell, two lengths to Pegs, Monash are pushing up three wide, on the inside is Oakleigh, a length to Ormond, further back is Banyule and Parkdale who missed the jump is a mile back, last.

Nothing can prepare you for the fi rst ten minutes of a round one encounter. The frenetic pace of the game. The hits and blocks to the body. The mental application needed to push through that initial pain threshold. Struggling through the lack of oxygen in your lungs after willing yourself to make that chase, or apply that extra shepherd. This week determined who could settle their nerves the best and adapt to the heat of round one action. It was a case of who could play four quarters of consistent footy. For some they succumbed to a second half fadeout whilst momentary lapses in concentration cost others.

There were certainly no signs of a premiership hangover at Boss James Reserve as The Rovers sent an ominous warning to the rest of the competition with an 85 point demolition of Parkdale. The Vultures were still in the hunt at half time but any hopes of a comeback were snuff ed out by a dominant second half display that saw the Rovers boot 16 goals to fi ve. Daniel Corp (7) and Ed Turner (4) did the bulk of the damage whilst Jay Ting was named best afi eld. For the vanquished, Sean Hendricks and Chad Ryan worked tirelessly all day and were rewarded with two goals each. The Vultures backline were put under enormous stress as the Rovers peppered the goals all day – registering 38 scoring shots. To Parkdale’s credit they were able to bring some respectability to the scoreboard in the fi nal term.

Ormond got a taste of the standard required for Premier C football going down by 43 points to a Marcellin side that led all day. The game was evenly poised at half time, but a strong second half by the Eagles ensured they opened their 2014 account. Dominic Bolger played a starring role in the win booting four majors, ably

supported by Patrick Millsom and Jarrod Carlson who were instrumental. The Monders were left to rue inaccurate goal kicking as they kicked 5.18 for the day, having only three less scoring shots than the Eagles. A four-goal surge in the premiership quarter set up the win for The Eagles. Despite the best eff orts of Thomas Cameron (2) and Luke Duthie, The Monders failed to hit the scoreboard when it counted late in the game. No doubt some goal kicking practice will be on the agenda at training this week.

An arm-wrestle developed at Frearson Oval as the Monash Blues and Old Camberwell traded blows. In what was a tight contest for three quarters, the game opened up in the last term as the Wellers prevailed by 15 points. Jack Duke was lively up forward for the Wellers kicking fi ve majors and Samuel Killworth chipped in with two of his own. Stephen Romanin and James Howells had plenty of it for the Wellers, whilst Tim Mackenzie was a solid contributor for the Blues. The Blues struggled to fi nd an avenue to goal with Zac Ledin (2) their only multiple goal kicker. When the game went up a notch in the fi nal term the Wellers backline were able to hold fi rm and show poise to retain possession. Monash wasted their fi nal quarter scoring opportunities, unable to fi nd targets when going inside 50.

PEGS and Oakleigh played out a seesawing battle that saw Oakleigh cough up a valuable 15 point lead at three quarter time. Held goalless in the fi nal term, the Krushers were overrun by a fast fi nishing PEGS outfi t, eventually going down by 11 points. For The Krushers Aaron Cloke thrived in his new role down back whilst Tim Scott (4) and Steve Tolongs (3) caused major headaches for the Bombers defence. Coach Jamie Mollo

didn’t lament over the loss and was pleased with the eff orts of his chargers. PEGS held a handy 14 point buff er at half time but a third term lapse in concentration almost cost them the game, as tempers fl ared in a ferocious contest. However the PEGS outfi t were able to regroup and restrict Oakleigh to a solitary behind in the fi nal quarter. Jarryd French and Daniel Flaherty were among Pegs’ best, along with Skurrie who led the way with three majors.

The Pirates held off a number of second half Banyule challenges to win by 37 points. Peninsula set up the win with a powerful fi rst half display, kicking four unanswered goals into the breeze in the fi rst quarter. In his fi rst game, Feldgen was named best afi eld as he ran rampant across half back, Glenn led the midfi eld brigade and veteran Powney mopped up down back. When many thought the game was over, Banyule had other ideas. Smith and French led a Banyule resurgence in the third term, bringing

the margin back to just three goals. However the fi ghtback had taken its toll on the Banyule players. Halfway through the fi nal term the Pirates answered Coach Claringbold’s calls for a ‘lift’ slamming on three goals in quick succession, to defl ate the Bears. The Bears were unable to contain Peninsula’s fi repower up forward, with the Pirates fi nishing with seven multiple goal kickers.

I expect Monash to bounce back and get on the winners list in 2014 when they do battle with Parkdale at Gerry Green Reserve and Old Camberwell will continue their winning form with a win at home against PEGS. In what shapes as the match of the round I’m tipping Marcellin, aided by the home ground advantage, to upset the Hampton Rovers in a tight one. Similarly Banyule should get the points at home against Ormond, and I think Peninsula will have too much class and experience to defeat Oakleigh.

YARRA VALLEY’S ROB DREW WALKS AND

WALKS AND WALKS…

On Saturday March 1st 2014, Yarra Valley Old

Boys senior coach Rob Drew completed the

most inspirational fundraising eff ort that the

football club has seen in its 21 year existence.

Setting off from Sorrento at 3am, Rob walked

to the Bushrangers’ new home ground in Leeds

Street Doncaster. The journey took him more

than 20 hours and in doing so, he raised more

than $30,000 to help with the fi t out of the

clubs new rooms. With the club relocating to a

new home, an extraordinary fundraising eff ort

was going to be needed to ensure that the

new home would be everything that the club

needed and would provide the players the best

opportunity to perform. So Rob went to club

president Ron Garlepp with his “crazy idea” to

walk 100km to raise $50,000 for the club. With

the season fast approaching, Rob didn’t want

to put his players at risk of injury so took on

the task himself. Training for the journey had

been considerably shorter than the 100km to

be walked with the longest training distance

just 23kms. Whether or not this would be a

problem only time would tell. After a restless

night, Rob and his support crew set off and

were accompanied by many patrons of “The

Conti” on their way home. After 4 hours, as he

approached Mt Martha, the sun rose, and whilst

he was still walking well, the sun was a welcome

relief as the road and hills around Mt Martha

are quite treacherous and he was on his own

at this stage and in his own words was starting

to get bored. In a strange role reversal, it was

the cyclists who were abusing him and telling

him to get off the road. Frankston marked the

halfway point, Rob was striding well, but the

feet were beginning to become a factor. The

positive was that he was ahead of his schedule,

but in the back of his mind was the fact that he

was still only half way. As the day wore on Rob

continued, regularly joined by members of the

playing group and supporters, but at 74kms

things became really tough. After continuous

cramping it appeared that the walk was over.

Rob thought he was done. It took a member

of his support walkers to get him through with

quick spot of massage and encouragement.

Fear of failing the task and letting down the

club and those that had sponsored him was

another driving factor in getting him back on

his feet and so he set off again, to complete

the fi nal quarter of his journey. With the sun

setting as he was walking past his workplace, he

fi nally saw Doncaster appear on a road sign his

support crew tried to lift his spirits, telling him

that he was nearly there. However, knowing

that the journey takes 20 minutes by car and

with his walking pace slowing considerably due

to fatigue and the relentless pain in his feet, Rob

knew that he still had a long way to go. At this

point Rob was about an hour behind his plan

and relied of his support crew to keep his spirits

up. As the support crew rotated, each new

member spurred him on. In the last 4kms Rob’s

parents joined him to fi nish it off . Unfortunately

for Rob, he miscalculated the distance from

Middleborough Rd to the ground, and there was

one fi nal hill which he audibly cursed. Every step

was like walking on broken glass. Past players

and committee joined him in the fi nal stages

and would have carried him home if need be.

But the Yarra Valley coach is a determined man

and this was his crazy idea. So at 11:27pm, after

more than 20 hours on his feet, 10 pairs of socks

and 100km, Rob Drew completed the journey

to the adulation of those that braved the chilly

night to see him home. In addition to being

determined, Rob is also very humble. Many


CANTERBURY POST MATCH BAND

Each year clubs are looking at new and

innovative ways to get both the home and away

supporters to hand around post match and enjoy

a celebratory or commiserative drink. One club

that is leading the way is new club Canterbury

who entertained all their bar guests by having a

live band in at the post match. The home team

won their fi rst ever match in the VAFA and the

band 2econd Chan3 were there to help the

players, supporters and sponsors celebrate.

HENRY JOLSON CUP

Old Ivanhoe and AJAX played in their round 1

Premier B opener last week and both clubs got

together to strike and play for the Henry Jolson

Cup. Henry Jolson OAM, QC, who passed away

late 2013 at the age of 66, will be remembered

by many for a distinguished legal career that

spanned almost 40 years.

While he was named a Legend of the Bar in 2012,

Henry also held legendary status as a member of

AJAX Football Club’s fi rst premiership team in 1966.

Many supporters and team mates said Henry

Jolson became a household name in the Jewish

community during his playing days. “He was

one of the club’s all-time greats — the perfect

centre half forward. A brilliant high mark, a

long, accurate kick and a sprint champion.”

As tribute to Henry’s qualities as “a player, a

person and a mediator” AJAX FC joined with

long-time VAFA rival (and loser of that 1966

Premiership match), Old Ivanhoe Grammarians,

to inaugurate a perpetual trophy in his memory.

The proposal for the trophy was put forward by

past Old Ivanhoe captain-coach Bruce Jeeves,

who enlisted the support of friend and former

schoolmate Michael Roth to gain approval

from the committees of both clubs. That trophy

was fi rst played for last week and we are sure

that Henry would have been happy to see his

Jackers do the right thing and claim the fi rst

one! (Pictured are captain Nick Marks (r) and

Vice Captain Josh Ludski (l) holding the trophy.)

would be looking for recognition and when

asked how he would like to be remembered he

merely answered, “Someone who put himself

out there and followed through” and that he

“would do it again if needed”. As for the walk

itself, he doesn’t want it put on any pedestal but

to be remembered as a as “just another thing

that somebody did to raise money for the club”.

Rob’s walk was an example to all who pull on

the jumper as to what self-sacrifi ce is all about

and not being scared to put it all on the line and

have a crack. To those that have formally worn

the red, yellow and black and those behind the

scenes, it was about reminding them how much

the club means to them.

Yarra Valley is a football club that is so much

more that a place to play a game. It is a part of

our lives and we will do whatever is needed to

support the club and one of our own, no matter

how crazy the idea.

VAFA UMPIRE PROMOTIONS TO HIGHER LEVELS

The recent announcements of the VFL and AFL Umpire panels for 2014 gave the VAFAUA and VAFA

many reasons to smile. The VAFA has been strongly represented in the VFL and the AFL in recent

years and this tradition continues in 2014. Congratulations are extended to the following former

VAFA Umpires who after a long preseason and trial period have been selected to umpire in the VFL/

TAC Cup in 2014: Joe Hartwig (Development Field) Ben Nicholson (Development Field) Matt Pryor

(Development Field) Charlie Blanch (Development Boundary). Congratulations are also extended

to Andrew Heff ernan (Field), Daniel Lawlor (Field), Ryan O’Shea (Boundary) and Matthew Dervan

(Goal) on being promoted from their respective Development Panels to the Senior Panel of each

discipline. These umpires join the following former VAFA Umpires at the VFL in 2014. Jarryd Barry

(Senior Field), Nick Brown (Senior Field), Brent Wallace (Senior Field), James Scully (Senior Boundary),

Chris Doyle (Senior Goal), Anthony Kyrkou (Senior Goal) and Steven Piperno (Senior Goal). Former

VAFA Umpires who are currently umpiring in the AFL are: Jordan Bannister (Field), Chris Donlon

(Field) (2011 AFL Grand Final Umpire), Leigh Fisher (Field), Simon Meredith (Field) (2012 and

2013 AFL Grand Final Umpire), Robert O’Gorman (Field) (Promoted in 2014), Matthew Jenkinson

(Boundary), Damien Cusack (Boundary) (Promoted in 2014) and Michael Saunders (Boundary) (2013

AFL Grand Final Umpire). Anyone thinking about umpiring across any discipline or any players that

have had one injury too many and are looking to transition to becoming an umpire should contact

Brian Goodman at the VAFA on 9537 6700 or [email protected]. Once again the VAFAUA and the

VAFA is proud to continue to provide the VFL and then AFL with quality umpires.


PAT AMBROSE STARTS WITH A BANG AT

THE BOMBERS

Quite literally Patrick Ambrose started his AFL

career with a bang as he backed back into a

pack only to be crunched by the traffi c behind

him when he made his debut in Essendon’s

round 1 win over North Melbourne.

The former Old Xaverians forward and Big V

representative was promoted to Essendon’s

senior list on the eve of Round 1 and in his fi rst

two matches, has made an immediate impact

for the Bombers. Putting his body on the line

multiple times in the win over the Kangaroos

before a 3 goal second half performance in the

narrow loss to the Hawks had everyone in the

football world singing his praises. Least of all

his coach Mark ‘Bomber’ Thompson who was

considering substituting Ambrose at half time

of the match against the Hawks. Only a late

injury to Patty Ryder prevented the substitution

of Ambrose and given the fact Ambrose

often comes into games late because of his

exceptional fi tness, the move proved a good

one. Ambrose missed last weekend’s match

against the Blues to rest he battered body but

on his opening two games, you can bet he will

be back wearing the red sash sooner rather than

later. Ambrose is the latest in the line of players

to have debuted in AFL after playing regularly in

the VAFA and wearing the Big V for the VAFA in a

representative game

THE LAUNCH OF ORMOND TOGETHER

There were many lunches at clubs to launch the

season but with Ormond returning to Premier C

they had close to 100 members, supporters and

friends from both the senior and junior clubs

present there to welcome the Monders to the

2014 season. Ormond unveiled its new brand

ORMOND TOGETHER uniting players, volunteers

and supporters as the club re-establishes

itself in the VAFA’s Premier grades. The Hon

David Southwick MP reassured the club that

he would do everything in his power to make

sure earthworks associated with removal of the

North Rd level crossing commencing later this

year would not adversely impact on the club.

The club also unveiled a fantastic portrait of

Bob Skilton in the social room to mark his tenth

anniversary as the club’s No 1 ticket holder,

and the triple Brownlow medallist, who has

been making a slow but sure recovery from

complications with hip surgery in 2013, spoke

about the important recreational hub that

local football clubs provide for young men.

Skilton regaled the audience with some of his

trademark cheeky humour and recollections

from VFL days with South Melbourne as a player

and Melbourne as coach. Longstanding Ormond

player, committee member and supporter Greg

Fisher was also re-presented with his VAFA

Certifi cate of Merit in front of the Club at the

lunch. (Pictured: L-R David Southwick (State MP

for Caulfi eld, and Ormond sponsor) Bob Skilton

16 THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2014SPORTS INJURY CASUALTY - OPEN 1-7 SATURDAY

The excitement of promotion and relegation brings new teams to rattle the competition each season, and already the new boys are stamping their authority. Two of those clubs, Therry Penola and NOBS/St Pats started their campaign in Division 1 with healthy victories, placing them fi rst and second on the ladder respectively. Early wins of 83 and 56-points earn more than just the four-points, but the respect of the section. You are only as good as your last eff ort, but the rest of the section looks on to see if that form will hold.

Therry Penola’s goal of a hat-trick of promotions too the fi rst step as they pulverised Old Geelong by 83-points. With an eight goal fi rst term, Therry set the tone for a good afternoon, the match ended up a rout soon after. The OG’s managed to keep the margin under 30 at halftime, however they were just clinging on. Following the long break that clasp let go as the defi cit became 47 at the last change. Then the fl oodgates opened and the Bannister brothers, Corey and Jarrod had a fi eld day. Jarrod ended up with 6 goals, while Corey fi nished with double fi gures bagging 10. Last year we saw Old Geelong’s indiff erent form on various occasions, but nothing like this. Expect a diff erent OG’s to show up as they host NOBS/St Pats this week.

For NOBSPC’s home game at St. Patrick’s College in Ballarat, the old boys donned the schools jumper for the fi rst time in the VAFA, and fi tting it was against old rivals Prahran Assumption. The visitors made the most of the pristine conditions and the wind at their backs, taking a two goal lead into the second quarter. And that lead could’ve been extended further as Prahran Assumption were looking at a 30-point advantage late in the term, but NOBSPC rallied with four late goals to be only 7-points behind at halftime. The second half was all one way traffi c, in favour of the home team. They put last year’s Division 1 fi nalists to the sword as they kicked 11.12 to 2.3 for the half, running away to a 53-point victory. St Pat’s old boy, Christian Ryan starred on his old home ground kicking 5 goals, while big man Peter Shepherd was best on ground for his dominance in the ruck.

For a third year in a row Old Mentonians opened

the season against Williamstown CYMS, and again it went down to the wire. In a free-fl owing contest, the now established rivalry was back and forth throughout the fi rst half. The Panthers took the lead for the fi rst time in the second quarter, before the CY’s drove home three quick ones to be 10-points up at halftime. The third quarter was all Williamstown, as they kicked four goals and extended the margin to a game-high 32-points, the game seemingly sealed. However, Old Mentonians didn’t give in and they managed to pull back to within a kick midway through the term. OMFC had their chances to steal a late victory, having kept Williamstown goalless and controlling possession, but they couldn’t convert their opportunities scoring 4.7 for the term and consequentially lost by 4-points.

Yarra Valley was unable to replicate fellow Division 1 newbies’ form as the travelled to Ted Ajani Reserve to tackle Bulleen Templestowe. The Bullants kept the visitors goalless in the fi rst quarter and slotted 3 of their own to take a 19-point lead at the break with the second being much the same. In the third, Bulleen Templestowe’s advantage became 38 and the game was done and dusted from here. Yarra Valley won the fi nal quarter but never seriously proved menacing as the contest ended 87-60. The Bullants played a solid team eff ort with nine diff erent goal scorers while Rob Edsall got plenty of the pill in a best on performance.

Whitefriars started the long road to the post-season on a positive note, knocking off Melbourne High School Old Boys at home. The fi rst term was a stalemate as the sides battled to produce scoreboard pressure with only two goals kicked for the quarter. Whitefriars slowly started to get into the swing of things in the second kicking three goals to one but the game still lacked intensity. Not until the fi nal term did the game get interesting. Eleven of the nineteen goals were kicked in the last quarter as the rolling maul became goal for goal football. The Friars bagged six goals in the fourth to defeat MHSOB by 24-points. Whitefriars’ Jean Daou continued his form with four goals.

DIVISION 1 LAST ROUND DIVISION 1 RESERVE


This week, Old Geelong host NOBS/St Pats and after last week they’ll need major improvement to get over the line. Expect a better performance from the OG’s but still see NOBSP coming out victorious. Whitefriars travel to Fearon Reserve to meet Williamstown CYMS, picking the CY’s in a close one. MHSOB face Therry Penola, and following their fi rst round win, have to back the Lions. Prahran Assumption tackles Bulleen Templestowe, the two played out tight contests last year and after being embarrassed in round 1, Prahran Assumption will get redemption with a victory. Finally, Yarra Valley plays Old Mentonians, OMFC were unlucky not to win last weekend so backing them to fi nish the round 1-1.

With round 1 now done and dusted, and four

of the fi ve games decided by 10 goals or more,

the Division 2 ladder makes for some interesting

reading. St Mary’s Salesian made an opening

round statement, with a commanding 107 point

win, while Old Eltham, Kew and St Johns round

out the top four. All would have had lofty goals

for the 2014 season, and it looks like, very little

may separate the sides as the year goes on. The

rebuilding Ivanhoe recorded a hard fought win

over the relegated Glen Eira, in a perfect debut

under new coach Paul Harris.

Lucky to not be relegated in 2013, Monash

Gryphons faced a formidable task of Old Eltham

away to kick off their 2014 season, and it proved

to be insurmountable. With 12 individual goal

kickers for the day and Ciavola booting 5, the

Turtles had control of this contest from start to

fi nish. They burst out of the blocks with a fi ve

goals to one opening term, as they kept the

Gryphons at arm’s length for the whole day

before blowing them away in the last. In what

turned out to be a tough pre-season for Monash

off the fi eld, may convert into a tough year on

the fi eld as well. The Gryphons will want to learn

from their performance, take stock and get their

season on track in a winnable game against Glen

Eira this week. Old Eltham are always dangerous

at home, but they need to be just as dangerous

away to take the next step in 2014.

In what was the performance of the round, St

Mary’s Salesian, under new coach Jess Sinclair,

sent a message to the other Div 2 sides, after

thumping Old Paradians by 107 points at Garvey

Oval. The game was scrappy early and St Mary’s

forward Ben Andrews opened proceedings

with his fi rst of four for the game. While fellow

forward Louis Holmes led and marked well, but

didn’t convert as he would have liked, kicking

1.4 for the quarter. The game tightened up in the

second as Parade worked their way back into the

contest but failed to capitalise forward of centre.

With new recruit Tim Dudgeon playing well on

debut and goals to Rogers, Holmes, Tanner and

Weetra, St Mary’s opened up a 37 point lead

heading into the main change. St Mary’s came

out after half-time, looking sharper and quicker

than the Raiders, conversion was again their

problem though with 5.5, while Parade put

through 3 straight after an improved eff ort. But

holding a 54 point lead at the start of the last, St

Mary’s produced their best football for the day,

they went for the jugular, and banged on 10.1 to

record a resounding 107 point win.

This season is somewhat of an unknown for both

Ivanhoe and Glen Eira, with both sides coming

off , by their own admissions, a disappointing

2013. Both wanting to start the year in a positive

way, the fi rst quarter was tight. With two goals

apiece at quarter time, Glen Eira would have

rouged missed opportunities with 2.8 for the

quarter. Ivanhoe got the game played back

on their terms in the seconds and turned a six

point defi cit into a 13 point lead, taking the

ascendency into halftime. Glen Eira came out

fi ring in the third, they closed the gap got their

nose in front, which set-up an intriguing last

quarter. It may have been unconvincing, but

Ivanhoe scrounged together 3.6 to 2.2 for the

quarter and recorded a dogged 11 point win and

started 2014 on the right note.

As is much the case in round 1 clashes, in the

fi rst quarter of St Johns v South Melbourne both

sides were rusty and the footy was hot early,

with the tackling and pressure around the ball

fi rst rate. The game opened up as the quarter

went on, with St Johns gaining the ascendency

in the midfi eld but failing with their delivery

inside forward 50. The JOCs rectifi ed this in

the second and their forwards capitalised to

open up a fi ve goal lead at halftime. With their

backline resolute, the pressure high through

the midfi eld, St Johns seemed to counter the

majority of Districts forays forward and took

some fi ght with a fi ve goal to six quarter and

would have wanted to save face in the last. A

ten goal defi cit proved too much for Anthony

Grace’s chargers to overcome with Kew running

out eventual 71 point winners and look set to go

up another gear in 2014. For Kew, youngsters:

Quinlivan, Margaritis, Leeuwen and Maibaum

were exceptional in the senior debuts while

Ryan Wyley was best afi eld with his run and carry

off half back.

Judging by last week’s form, four out of the fi ve

home sides should win this week, while I’ll give

Old Paradians a shot at redemption after their

dismal performance in round 1.


their opportunities when they presented. A

seven goal to three third quarter gave them a

match-winning 10 goal lead heading into the

last. In an even last quarter and the sting out of

the game, two late goals capped off a solid four

quarter performance for St Johns, and for South

Melbourne, it presented a lot to learn from.

In a rematch of the Division 3 Grand Final, Kew,

much like in the GF got off to a fl yer, kicking

six goals to none in the opening term. With

Elsternwick missing 10 players from their Grand

Final side and Kew boasting possibly the best

depth in Div 2, it was always going to be a tough

task for the Wicks. After quarter time, the game

was a lot tighter as the scoreboard suggested

and the Bears took a nine goal lead into the main

break. Andrew Brazzale picked up where he left

off in the Premiership win with a dominating

six goal haul. In the third, Elsternwick showed

Clean boots, clear lines and fresh ambitions, there is nothing quite like the aura surrounding the beginning of a new football season. The time of year when last year’s fairytale team and the perpetual cellar dweller come together on equal terms, but hope to send an entirely diff erent message out to the competition. Whether trying to prove they aren’t a pushover, one-hit wonder or the team that’s always almost good enough, all of the teams in VAFA’s Division 3 this year have their own unique journey ahead.

ROUND 1 REVIEW:

Aquinas’s new coach Russell Barnes was triumphant in his fi rst game at the club, defeating Emmaus St Leos by 10 points at Bennettswood Sports Ground. Sam Williams was dominant for the Bloods, piling on six goals in the win to continue his 2013 form in front of the sticks. The Animals gave Aquinas a scare in the fi nal term, piling on 8 goals to reduce the 33 point three quarter time margin, but it wasn’t enough as they conceded 5 of their own and fell narrowly short at their home ground.

UHS-VU were made to earn their victory over La Trobe University at Brens Oval, running away 20 point winners. Despite the fi nal margin, both sides registered the same number of shots at goal, as La Trobe were made to rue missed chances with UHS kicking a staggering 16 goals and 3 behinds. The Trobers got great output from captain-coach Brenton Hunt and Jack McMeel up forward who combined for nine goals, but were countered by the Zookeeper’s Rhys Kirk and Thomas Bay who combined for ten to keep the visitors at bay.

Last year’s Division 4 grand fi nalists Eley Park made light work of South Mornington at home, defeating the Tigers by a convincing 74 points. New ruck recruit Pat McMahon gave great supply to his midfi elders at the stoppages for the Sharks, while Noel Bahnsen took full advantage of their inside fi fty entries by kicking six goals. David Viola who kicked 45 goals for Eley Park last season, fl ourished in his new key defensive post.

In the closest game of the round in both Division 3 and every other section for that matter, Richmond Central overcame St Francis Xavier by two points at Kevin Bartlett Reserve. The X-Men led at every change by less than a goal in the nail-biter, but the Snakes came through when it counted stealing the win in the last term. Ben Spencer did all he could to spur his side to the win, kicking six goals in a losing side for the X-Men.

In contrast, the biggest blowout of the round was at VAFA Headquarters, Sportscover Arena, where Division 4 premiers the Northern Blues defeated Albert Park by 91 points. The Falcons toiled away early in the contest before the run and carry of the Blues put the scoreline beyond doubt in the latter stages. James King was a standout for Northern in the clash kicking eight goals. Former section best and fairest Stuart Maunder provided a shining light in a dim day for the Falcons, kicking three goals in his fi rst game back after a year on the sidelines. Blues sending an ominous message that last year’s premiership was no fl uke.

In the fi nal game of the round, Swinburne absorbed ferocious pressure from Power House to fi nish with a comfortable 58 point win at St James Park. The Razorbacks fought hard in the fi rst half before the game opened up, allowing them to kick nine second half goals. Tom Kennedy (5 goals) and Ben Higgins were both among Swinburne’s best players on the day.

ROUND 2 PREVIEW:

Aquinas v UHS-VU -The Bloods only faced the Zookeepers once last season, with Aquinas coming away with a 13 point win in a low scoring aff air. Aquinas should be able to keep their momentum going and make it two on the trot to start the year.

South Mornington v Albert Park - The Falcons will be looking to make amends after last weeks thumping at the hands of Northern Blues. South

Northern Blues v Eley Park -The biggest game of

the round comes in the form of last year’s Division

4 Grand Final rematch. The Blues will be unveiling

the fl ag in their fi rst home game for the season,

which should evoke emotion in both squads.

Result could go either way at the pint sized

Ruthven Reserve.

St Francis Xavier v Power House - The margin from last week’s loss to Swinburne doesn’t tell the full tale for Power House, who were competitive for most of the afternoon. Unfortunately, they may have to wait another week for their fi rst win though as they come up against the formidable X-Men.

Swinburne Uni v Emmaus St Leos - Swinburne look like they could be the big movers of 2014. If they can change their fortunes and win the close games they lost last season, expect them to charge into the fi nals with some confi dence.

The previews, speculation and Friday night’s out

on the town came to a timely close last weekend as

Division 4 of the VAFA got under way. All Division

4 teams were hungry for footy and keen to get

out on the park – some made bold statements,

some let their season opener slip, whilst others are

clearly still in a state of transition. The competition

favourites confi rmed that very tag, whilst the

competition newcomers performed an enthralling

litmus test. That left the rest of the competition to

either make the early running or consider round

one a week of discovery with their true character

to be revealed in the coming weeks

CANTERBURY (12.14-86) DEFEATED

WESTBOURNE GRAMMARIANS (9.18-72)

The battle of the two Division 4 newcomers

attracted the attention of the competition as other

clubs attempt to gauge the level of their fresh

adversaries. It was Canterbury, who celebrated

their fi rst win since 2012 in their fi rst outing since

transferring from the EFL with a victory over the

freshly minted Westbourne Grammarians. In what

proved to be a tight tussle throughout the match,

no more than three goals separated the sides at

each of the breaks until a rampant Canterbury

produced an almighty fi nal term. The EFL converts

overturned a 17 point defi cit at three quarter

time to win by 14 points. Westbourne will be

disappointed to have squandered a defendable

lead at the fi nal change and rue the consequences

of wayward kicking. Going forward, Division 4 will

be wary of a Canterbury side who proved they can

turn it on when required.

CHADSTONE (4.4-28) LOST TO WEST

BRUNSWICK (29.23-197)

A team in the midst of rebuilding played host to

one of the title contenders. Of recent seasons,

Chadstone have generally faced a challenging

prospect in the opening round, but the Magpies

re-enforced that when you are in re-build mode,

there is no easy path to the top. That said,

Chadstone showed fl ashes of brilliance as they

adapt to a new style of football under coach

Ken Schwab and adjust to playing with new

teammates. All considered, Chadstone showed

promise of competitively mixing it with other

Division 4 teams in 2014. A strong showing

from West Brunswick was punctuated with a

superb mid-air snap goal from custodian Richard

Benjamin from 30 metres. Whilst the scoring

was shared around, Benjamin kicked six for the

day and was well supported by Zac Tisdale who

bagged fi ve of his own. The Magpies will look to

build on last week’s result as they host Point Cook

on the club’s Friends and Family day today.

MANNINGHAM COBRAS (12.7-79)

DEFEATED NORTH BRUNSWICK (4.6-30)

Manningham got 2014 underway at home with a

convincing win over North Brunswick. The Cobras’

poor showing in 2013 was a distant memory as

they comfortably dealt with a team that featured in

last year’s fi nals series. Both teams played a similar

style of footy, but it was Manningham who looked

the better drilled of the two sides, creating more

scoring opportunities and fi nding themselves

better placed to execute than their opposition.

The green and gold will take some heart from the

fact that the distance on the scoreboard did not

refl ect the distance between the ability of the two

sides. Fitness was a perhaps telling factor in this

encounter as North Brunswick conscribed a few of

its reserves roster for the senior match. Both teams

face good tests this week as Manningham take on

Westbourne Grammarians and North Brunswick

tackle Chadstone at The Tip.

HAWTHORN (18.19-127) DEFEATED

BOX HILL NORTH (8.4-52)

competition favourites, Hawthorn, came out with

a point to prove against Box Hill North. The day

started well with the reserves registering an 88

point win. The seniors set about emulating the

form of their understudies, but found themselves

caught in a contest at the main break with Box Hill

North holding leads at both quarter time and the

main interval. The Hawks came out of the sheds

with renewed vigour in the second half, booting six

unanswered goals in the third term and a further

seven in the fi nal stanza. The 2013 O.J. Meehan

Medallist, David Tremewen, spearheaded the

second half assault with seven goals for the game.

POINT COOK (14.16-100) DEFEATED

DRAGONS (9.11-65)

Point Cook never looked threatened by a Dragons

side who were only slightly off the pace in the

season opener. The Dogs led at every change

thanks to four goals from Matthew Herbertson

and a handy three goal contribution from Peter

Donoghue. Mohammad Babar did his best to

inspire his team with three goals for the match, but

his fellow Dragons were wayward in front of goal.

The statistic of thirty shots to twenty gives a fair

insight to the diff erence between two sides. Point

Cook would have been happy to win in a canter

but they dace a diff erent prospect next week. In

fact both teams face the form sides of Division 4

and will have to up their respective games if they

are to challenge the early ladder leaders.

Round 2 gets underway today with plenty of

teams keen to keep their momentum building

and others hungry to rectify the events of last

week.

CLUB WAREHOUSE RISING STAR 2012

VAFA ELASTOPLAST TRAINER OF THE WEEK

Dean doesn’t just overcome hurdles, he runs straight through

them. At the young age of 18, Dean continues to demonstrate to

his team mates the resilience and determination that he excels

with. Overcoming two knee reconstructions to cement his spot

back on the senior list. Dean managed only two games last year

due to injury, and has since endured a demanding pre-season,

hardly missing a session since November. Dean is renowned as a

diligent trainer at the club, leading by example week in, week out.

This prolifi c fortitude earned Dean a senior selection for round 1.

Upon selection, eager to rectify the talent that lays within, Dean

oozed class, booting four goals in AJAX’s comfortable victory

alongside a best on ground performance. Dean has excelled

through the AJAX Junior Football Club, playing over 60 games

including four representative matches with SMJFL in the AFL Vic

Metro Championships. Dean is now working in Security, and in his

off time between trainings, enjoys time with family and friends who

he shares a close bond with.

Caroline Hyman has served as an enthusiastic and reliable member

of the Swinburne Uni AFC committee for the last 4 seasons. Caz

received our “Best Club Person” award for the 2011 season and is

always diligent with whatever duties are asked of her. Finding

reliable trainers has been an issue for our club in the past, so as

she so often does, Caroline put her hand up. After being qualifi ed

only a month or so ago, Caz has shown initiative in ensuring that

out medical supplies and equipment are up to standard ensuring

player health and safety. On the weekend, Caz truly showed that

we had a genuine star on our hands in her fi rst game as trainer, not

only doing a tremendous job in looking after our club’s players, but

also helping out an undermanned opposition medical outfi t and

insuring proper treatment of a pretty seriously injured opposition

player. All at Swinburne congratulate Caroline on her nomination.

* to be eligible for the club Warehouse

Rising Star, a player must be born no

earlier than 1991 and playing his fi rst

full season of senior football.

BEST: 5 YEARS AGO – 2009

Old Melburnians went to the top of the B Section ladder after disposing of Old Trinity by 17 points. In a stunning opening quarter, the OM’s slammed on 11.5 to 2.0 and Trinity never looked like getting back into the game. Although OM’s only kicked a further 5.4 for the match the fi nal score in their favour was 16.9 to 12.16. Best: Freezer, Seccull (5), J Beaumont, Davis, Harvey, Greene (OM) and Osborn, Pacconi, Ramsden, Gibson, Stockdale, Krakouer (OT).

The ‘For The Love Of The Game’ column detailed the awarding of Life Membership to a great VAFA personality, Peter Rhoden. At the time “Porky” was Old Xaverians longest serving coach and had been a Certifi cate of Merit winner in 2000. Peter also coached the Victorian Carnival team in 1964 and 1965 and was again State Coach in 72–74. Over a forty-fi ve year period, Peter had made an outstanding contribution to the VAFA on and off the fi eld.

10 YEARS AGO – 2004

Collegians remained undefeated in B Section after defeating Beaumaris 12.8 to 8.8 in an entertaining game. Collegians jumped out of the blocks with 7.3 to 1.0 and Beauy never got back into the match although they narrowed the gap signifi cantly. Best: Holst, Phillip, Hosking, Blumfi eld, Mooney, Unsworth (Coll) and Teasdale, Berry, Coote, Boon, Healy, Pitts (B).

Brett Dintinosante played his 150th game for Old Paradians having joined OP’s in 2001 beginning with the U19’s. Eddie Mitchell also recorded his 150th and the gutsy, running left footer had served St Leos Emmaus well over the journey.


Mazenod were trailing Old Trinity at half time in B Section but gave a polished display in the second half to run out winners 21.21 to 14.8. Best: Hunt, Buck (5), Green, Murray, McLean, Marshall (M) and Sutcliff e, Hudson, Rogers, Taylor, Norman, Edmunds (OT).

AJAX Utility player, Adam Michmacher, played his 100th game and Robbie Purcell played his 200th for St Bernards. Rob’s career included four premierships.


West Brunswick recorded their fi rst win with narrow win over Fawkner, 12.13 to 12.11 in C Section. Best: Buckley, Cecchi, Fyff e (WB) and Mitchell, Cropley, Hills (F). Michael Ritterman played his 200th game for AJAX and was one of the most highly decorated players in the VAFA. Among other achievements was the fact that Michael won the VAFA B&F in every section from E to B in a fi ve-year period.


In a great game between Monash Blues and Ivanhoe, it was the Blues who came out on top, 13.16 to 12.10 and consequently headed the B Section ladder with their two straight wins. Ivanhoe trailed all day but kept within striking distance. Best: Griffi ths (6), Sweetland, Ross, Halliday, Hargreaves, Booth (MB) and Hughes (8), Quinlivan, R Stewart, Ireland, Van, Rojo (I).

Ormond great, Bruce Bourne played his 150th in the distinctive brown and blue Ormond colours. No matter what position on the ground, ‘Bourney’ was an outstanding player. He was also honoured with the captaincy of the State team and was an All-Australian amateur.


In C Section Brunswick scored a convincing win against newly promoted Old Haileyburians by using their clever handball game to advantage, fi nal score 18.10 to 7.5 with ‘Bubbles’ Ball kicking 7 goals for Brunswick. Stokes and T Benns were other key players in the win. Cole, P McFarlane and Henderson were Haileybury’s best. It was a thriller between Glenhuntly and ANZ in D Section with Glenhuntly holding off a fast fi nishing ANZ, 9.17 to 9.14. Best: Williamson, Burman, Rees (Glenhuntly) and Bloom, Morrow, Mitchell (ANZ). AJAX belatedly entered a team into the Junior Section and evened up the section, which previously had a bye.

U19 Premier with John Donohoe @jdonohoe12

The under 19 season went off with a bang on Saturday with some mixed results and two of last years big teams going down by big margins. Wayward kicking cost St Bedes/Mentone

Tigers against Beaumaris. The Sharks showed the rest of the competition that they could be a force to be reckoned with in 2014. St Bernard’s took on an Old Melburnians side looking to make amends for a poor 2013 campaign. St Bernards trailed at the fi rst break but found their form in the second kicking 8.3 to 0.2 and controlled the match from there for a big win. James Riley and Edyn Sibbald

kicked 3 majors for the Snowdogs while Ryan Haward & Billy Alvin were OM’s best. Old Xaverians got their campaign started with a hard fought 10 point win over Old Scotch. Todd Vander Haar also showed a lot of class up forward in the win and despite a Cardinals comeback last year’s runners up held on. De La Salle took on SKOB at their home, Waverley Park, but it was the visitors who won decisively. Lewin (5) and Canterbury (4) were both instrumental for the hoops. With only 8 teams in the competition this season it could be a tight ladder throughout the year and we may even see one of the heavyweights anchored to the bottom at times.

U19 Section 2 Report @LewisEmmerson

Mazenod produced a 27-point win over newly promoted Whitefriars, who will be disappointed with a scoreless third quarter. Nicholas Peck proved a catalyst in the

Nodders victory while Whitefriars Jason Spencer fought hard. Old Trinity led at every change as they overcame University Blues by 4 goals. In a solid performance, Trinity’s Sam Joyce snagged 5 big ones. Daniel Batarilo kicked 2 goals for Uni Blues. A see-sawing contest saw Old Brighton sneak home by 3 points against Parkdale Vultures. Brighton’s Raury Bolger helped his side over the

line. Kurt Lopo was a shining light for the Vultures.

Fitzroy hosted Collegians, who fi nished 1st and 4th respectively last year. Fitzroy’s 2014 campaign started in the same vein as it ended with a comfortable 45-point win. Joseph Hill bagged 3 goals for the Roys while Michael Irvine led the resistance for Collegians.

Despite trailing at half time, University Blacks opened their year with a commanding 40-point victory over Caulfi eld Grammarians. Uni Blacks Harry King was best afi eld slotting 3 goals. Harry Witts was amongst Caulfi eld’s better players while kicking 2 goals of his own.

U19 Section 3 with Tom Connolly @tomconnolly15

With a lot of the teams

playing each other for the

first time, there was a lot of

uncertainty and doubt going

into these round one games.

Williamstown CYMS started off

the year with a bang with a convincing win over

last year’s pace setters the Northern Blues. The

Old Xaverians were also strong, producing a 10-

goal victory over St Mary’s Salesian. It was a hard

fought come back from Old Camberwell that got

them over the line in their match against Therry

Penola. The Wells kicked 10 goals in the second

half after just 2 in the first half against to win by

10 points. It was an amazing performance by

Xavier Burns from Marcellin who kicked seven of

his teams eight goals, alas it wasn’t enough to get

them over the line against Old Carey who won by

a convincing 37 points. Old Ivanhoe were just too

strong for the AJAX, winning comfortably by 34

points at home.

As the excitement of round 1 is now over, all of the

teams will be looking forward to getting on with

the year ahead and focusing on making finals. If

round 1 is anything to go by, then I cannot wait for

what is to come inthe rest of the year.


U19 North Anna O’Donnell @annaod_

Yarra Valley had a convincing win with a 117-point triumph over Old Paradians at Garvey Oval. Hancock kicked 6 for Yarra Valley while 9 of his teammates chipped in, with

Chipman kicking 3. Stedman and the two leading goalkickers were amongst the best on ground.

La Trobe pinched the points at Whitefriars, kicking 5 goals to their opponents 1 in the fi nal term. La Trobe’s O’Connor kicked 3 goals while Oliver and Allen were also among best players on the day. Ivanhoe Park saw the home team win by 83 points over PEGS. The Magpies booted 8 goals in the last

quarter. Bullen grabbed 5 goals and Emerson 3. Zammit, Camminiti and Vovos were among the best players for the visiting team but were unable to narrow the margin. Westbourne Grammarians fell a massive123 points short of St Benard’s 144. Pasznyk kicked 6 goals while Hanmer, Paintella and Sullivan all kicked 3. Douge, McNicol and Isaacs stood out and O’Brien, Fleming, and Molloy were best in their defeat.

Wyndham Suns boasted 46-point victory over Banyule at home. Wilson, Ali and Gallina all managed to kick 3 while Banyule’s Lowe, Langford and Centofanti kicked 2.

U19 South with Anna O’Donnell @annaod_

Collegians just fell short of Monash Blues low winning total of 59 after trailing by no more than 7 points until the fi nal term. Mandile was the leading goalkicker for

Collegians, but they were unable to do enough to get a win on Saturday. De La Salle won by 27 points over Beaumaris. McGaw kicked 4 goal for the victors whilst Cowan and Zaia helped bring home the victory. Davis and Tanzimat played well the Sharks but couldn’t do enough. Ormond sealed an 80-point victory over University Blues with Carothers kicking 5 and Putamorsi 4 goals.

University only managed 4 goals for the day and Baird, Condon and Morgan were among their best. MHSOB could not match Hampton Rovers as the Rovers doubled the Unicorns score. Jones and Baravelli were among the leading goalkickers for the day, whilst Cairns and Clarke also helped to seal the 67-point victory. Peninsula defeated Old Haileybury comfortably with Johnson kicking 4 for the victors. MacPherson and Meehan were among the best on the day but could not contest with the likes of McLean and Harrison who worked hard to aid Peninsula’s victory.

As Old Trinity take the

fi eld today in their fi rst

match of the year on the

delightful Daley Oval on

the Marles Playing Fields

of Trinity Grammar, there

will be something missing.

Andrew ‘Rambo’ Ramsden

will not be available for

selection for the fi rst time

since the AFL Grand Final

entertainment included

a bat mobile and Angry

Anderson. Debate still

rages whether Angry

Anderson or Meatloaf

are the most iconic

entertainment failures in

AFL Grand Final history

but that off the point.

Without doubt Rambo has

been one of the best and

most decorated Amateur

Footballers to have played

the game. It is not just the

longevity either.

Many amateur footballers

have played more matches and many have done

so in the top sections, but few have played at

such a high level and still been one of the key

players in determining the fortunes of their side.

From 1996-2007 Ramsden fi nished in the club’s

top two of their Best and Fairest count in every

single season (except for 1997 when he spent

a year at Essendon’s Reserves). In all he claimed

fi ve senior Best and Fairest Awards. Since moving

to a permanent forward he led the club’s goal

kicking from 2008-2013.

Ramsden confi rmed to the senior coach Adam

Andrews and the Old Trinity football department

he would not be suiting up for 23rd season in the

green and gold just a few weeks ago. Ramsden

has pulled on that jumper 348 times for the

club and is the games record holder. Only 15

of those games were in the reserves. Ramsden

is still struggling with the idea of his retirement

but said “I was starting to feel it a bit more, it

was getting harder and harder to come up each

week and with the club is back in Premier, that is

always where I wanted to fi nish up.”

Ramsden is a three-time premiership player at

the club, playing in the 1994, 1996 and 1999 Old

Trinity B Grade premierships. Of the many career

highlights he has had, Ramsden was able to

pinpoint them pretty easily.

“No doubt they have been the B Grade

Premierships, I managed to play in three of those.

Also representing the VAFA was an absolute

highlight. The chance to wear the Big V jumper

and play with the best players was something I

will cherish. I loved playing for the Big V”

His Big V Rep Coach and the man who made him

the senior VAFA captain from 2002-2005 Nick

Bourke said of Ramsden:

“I fi rst saw him play in a practice match against

Old Xaverians in 1995. He whacked a bloke and

got sent off . I knew straight away he was a bit

diff erent. But in no way did I think that nearly

20 years later he would still be running around

causing opposition so much angst.”

“He has been an ornament to the VAFA in

representative football, hardly ever turning a

bad game. His ability to avoid serious injury and

his underrated goal kicking accuracy have been

just two of his strengths, he is a great Amateur

man.”

Ramsden was also Vice Captain of the senior

representative side in 2000 and 2001. In total

Rambo played 13 times for the Big V from 1998-

2005 and was named in the AAFC (Australian

Amateur Football Council) Team Of The Year

from 2002-2004, in 2004 he was named All-

Australian Captain.

Old Trinity historian and ex club committeeman

Ian Jervis said Rambo was one of the few

automatics when Old Trinity selected their ‘50

year team’ of 1954-2003. “Given that Rambo was

such a good player for another decade after that,

he guaranteed to be fi rst name down in the next

50 year team” said Jervis.

Jervis has probably watched Ramsden in more

of his games than anyone else and when quizzed

on Rambo’s best showing in the green and gold,

he immediately referenced Old Trinity’s fi rst ever

fi nal in A Grade in 2004.

“It was the fi rst semi fi nal on a Sunday at Trevor

Barker Oval and the opponent was Marcellin,

a team we had had great diffi culty beating in

recent times. Being our fi rst ever A Grade fi nal

and the enormity of the occasion, Andrew’s

performance that day was sensational.”

(Ramsden kicked three goals and was named

best in the big upset win.)

However Jervis was quick

to point out another trait

of Ramsden that everyone

at Old Trinity would be all

too aware of.

“He is the only payer in my

lifetime that I have seen at

any level of football that in

the space of one minute,

could infuriate then

delight in equal measure.”

The umpires were fond

of Ramsden too. He is a

two-time section Best and

Fairest winner. Rambo

won the 2005 Woodrow

Medal in A Grade and

six years prior to that he

won the Moore Medal in

a premiership year in B

Grade.

Jervis again: “Probably

2005 was the better year

because it was in A Grade,

but he was extraordinary

in both years.”

Those individual honours were won when he

was predominantly a ruckman who sometimes

went forward but as the legs and body became

weary Rambo moved to become a permanent

forward who sometimes dabbled in the ruck.

“I played my best football as a ruckman and

when I was on the ball I really enjoyed going

forward to kick a goal. However, playing forward

was like a career change and it certainly allowed

me to keep playing. Some days you could have a

frustrating day forward but if I was playing in the

ruck, even if you were being beaten you never

felt like you had had such a bad day.”

Ramsden was made a Life Member of Old

Trinity in 2003 when he reached his 200 game

milestone for the club.

“He is wonderfully humble and very durable for a

bloke his size” said Jervis. “However he regualarly

played with injuries – his hand injury in particular

was quite brutal – but I doubt even people at old

Trinity would even have known about them,

probably because he never complained.”


U19 – SOUTH

Rambo said his toughest opponent was

another VAFA rucking legend, the Old Xaverians

champion Michael Blood. The best player Rambo

has played with at Old Trinity was their current

skipper and the reigning Moore Medallist,

Brendan Iezzi.

We will leave the fi nal word to the man himself.

“ I have loved every minute of playing in the VAFA and playing for Old Trinity, playing on Daley Oval certainly made it easier to keep playing year on year.”

On what the future holds Rambo is unsure.

“That’s a good question. I don’t have too many

plans for Saturday afternoons now. I will help out

with a bit of Ruck and goal kicking coaching at

training and I will make sure I get invited to as

many lunches as possible.

There is no doubt everyone at Old Trinity, the

opposition clubs Rambo battled against and the

VAFA selectors who picked in those 13 matches

for the Big sends their best wishes to you on a

great amateur career.

Round one. At no other time outside fi nals is the

classic umpires’ mantra “let ‘em play footy” as

pivotal. Regardless of the grade, players tend to

go in hard and tackle harder, desperate to start

the season on the right note.

During the week, our coaching sessions

emphasised the importance of holding the

whistle, protecting the ball player and keeping

our eyes on players after disposal. It’s a good

thing too, because it was a hot opening round

of competition.

The excitement among the umpiring group

was palpable, with attendance at training

noticeably larger than in recent weeks. For the

record, we shamelessly love the new paperwork

submission system.

I (Kit) was at E.E. Gunn Reserve for newly promoted

Ormond’s home opener against Marcellin in

Premier C. The Eagles got home comfortably, but

the footy was quick and hotly contested from start

to fi nish. When was the moment I knew footy was

well and truly back? It was two-and-a-half minutes

into the fi rst quarter, when I paid a free against a

ruckman who used a volleyball-style spike to slam

the ball deliberately out of bounds.

Footy’s back. Don’t you just love it?

OVER EXPOSURE

We welcomed co-scribe Kit Harvey to this page

last week and it was a great debut. He was asked

to provide a headshot for the top of the page,

so he provided us with a “glamour” shot you see

above. Little did we know that there would be

two other photos of Kit on that double page,

an action shot and as part of the representative

team. OK Kitster, you’ve make your mark. –

Macca.

“LET ‘EM PLAY FOOTY” MILESTONE

We mentioned last week that veteran goal

umpire Bob Seymour was notching up his 500th

VAFA game. Our error, and apologies to Bob

that it was actually game 550. He had a great

day with his crew out at Therry and would like

thank all involved especially Therry Penola and

Old Geelong and old goal-umpiring mate “Ball-

Tearer”.

ROAD TRIP

With the VAFA clubs being spread far and wide

across Melbourne most clubs have to endure

some pretty long road trips during the year. A

couple that spring to mind are PEGS heading

to Peninisula Old Boys and of course South

Mornington heading out to Latrobe University.

In a “one-off ” last weekend North Old Boys/

St. Pats hosted Prahran/Assumption at the

college in Ballarat. Of course we had to supply

umpires willing the make the trip. We thank fi eld

umpires Andrew Hartnett (from the foot of the

Dandenongs) and Owen Hinson (as a pilot he

travels further to work everyday) and of course

the goalies Ron Martyn and John Cahir. No truth

in the rumour that Ron and John stayed for a

weekend in Daylesford. But back to the footy,

a great day was had by all with the home side

being victors against their traditional country

rivals.

TIME FOR A BREAK

After a very long pre-season a string of practice

matches, and a frenzied start to the real stuff , we

need a rest. Enjoy the Easter break and we’ll see

you when we resume hostilities in a fortnight.

As the cobwebs were dusted off and the fi rst ball

was bounced for season 2014, it saw a variety

of all sorts. Only two of the three matches were

played with South Melbourne Districts having

to unfortunately forfeit against Mazenod.

They will have to await their opportunity

today to make their mark within this section.

It was a tight contest out in the west as Point

Cook and Williamstown did battle. The windy

Saltwater Reserve caused both teams to display

inaccurate kicking throughout the day, with

barely a third of shots at goal splitting the

middle. The CY’s were able to come away with

a four point win away from home. Jake Slee and

Andrew Robinson were the only multiple goal

kickers for both sides, with Oliver Becroft and

Blake Boyce judged best afi eld for both teams.

After a disappointing 2013, UHS – VU kicked off

their season successfully with a handy 17 point

win over St Bernards who just missed out on a

fi nals spot in 2013. The Uni Boys led all match,

with Nick Munari leading the way with three

majors for the victors. The Snowdogs struggled

to kick goals with inaccurate goal kicking (7.10)

and it cost them dearly. Josh Turville and Chris

Tormey played major roles for the Snowdogs

despite the defeat.

With round 1 completed, the focus is now on

round two which will no doubt bring another

variety of all sorts

Norm Nugent

Summer weather lingered to provide

excellent conditions for football. However

those players whose preseason eff orts were

lacking, tired and allowed their opponents to

contribute to the fi tter teams’ positive results.

The closest result was the three point win by

Kew, whereas there were several one sided

results, which hopefully will not prove the

norm over the remaining 14 rounds.

SECTION 1

Mt Lilydale continued their Club XVIII run of

success when they outplayed Masala, who despite

the eff orts of the consistent Ben Nugent, fi nished

43 points in arrears. Hawthorn celebrated their

promotion to Section 1 with a 132 point win over

Old Geelong on Como Park. The big ground held

no fears for Hawthorn for whom Ari Mitropoulos

kicked 10 goals. He was well supported by A.

Demetriou (Anthony not Andrew). Regular

fi nalists, Prahran/ Assumption gave a lack lustre

display against their nemesis Old Xaverians who

won the one sided match by 132 points. James

McDonnell, who kicked 8 goals was named as the

Crocodiles’ best. The Two Blues were well served

by their veterans; Luke Farrell and Craig Berger.

SECTION 2

Out east, Emmaus/ St Leo’s defeated the

promoted Eley Park by 61 points. After an even

fi rst quarter Emmaus /St Leo’s assumed control

of the contest in which Mark Petryk, with 5

goals continued his fi ne form. Richmond Central

recorded a comfortable four goal victory over

Williamstown CYMS. Peter Iser, who played well

for Richmond Central, has returned to playing

after a stint as the Club umpire. Therry Penola,

who led throughout the game, recorded a victory

over Bulleen Templestowe by 16 points.

SECTION 3

La Trobe University who have returned to the

competition, trounced last season’s fi nalist

University High School Old Boys by 139 points in

an impressive display of teamwork as instanced

by 14 players sharing 22 goals. The Dragons,

who led Kew by 22 points at half time, ran out

of fi tness in the second half when they had only

three scoring shots. Kew, on the other hand came

home strongly and wrested the lead for the fi rst

time late in the game. Their three point victory

was the closest result of the round. North Old

Boys/ St Patrick’s, celebrated their return to Club

XVIII with a 56 point win over the debutants,

Melbourne High School Old Boys. Interestingly

MHSOB’s playing side included several players

from Sweden. Best for the victors were: Jarrod

Poynter, Anthony Brennan and Todd Macleod (6

goals). For the “Unicorns”, Tom Fraczek and Albert

Kuang stood out.

PREVIEW OF ROUND 2SECTION 1

Old Geelong face the long trip east to meet Mt

Lilydale who possess a marked home ground

advantage. Based on Round 1 form, Mt Lilydale

should win well again. Prahran/ Assumption

face a daunting task to defeat Hawthorn whose

confi dence in their ability to cope in Section 1

is now sky high. I am in no doubt Hawthorn will

win this match. Newcomers, Masala will be able

to gauge the standard required for success when

they meet reigning premiers, Old Xaverians. For

the sake of the competition, I hope Masala can at

least curtail the Xaverian juggernaut.

SECTION 2

Therry Penola, who are always hard to beat on

the Fawkner Reserve, meet Emmaus/ St Leo’s

who possess a number of good players but who

have shown a lack of match fi tness. Talent may

well triumph but I am selecting Therry Penola to

win this game. Williamstown CYMS travel to meet

Eley Park Sharks. The “C.Y.s” may take time to settle

in the strange environment, but I select them to

fi nish ahead of the “Sharks”. Richmond Central

host Bulleen/ Templestowe in a game that should

tell us how much the “Bullants” have improved. I

select Richmond Central.

SECTION 3

All three games in this Section are scheduled for

the early morning. North Old Boys/ St Patrick’s

travel to Dragons, whose match fi tness seemed

suspect on the small Victoria Park last Saturday.

Based on Round 1 performances, North Old Boy’s/

St Patrick’s should win this game convincingly.

For the fi rst time in decades, the once powerful

Melbourne High School and University High School

Old Boys meet at Forest Hill. In times past these

Clubs were regular opponents in Premier Division.

University High School disappointed last week but

the newcomers Melbourne High did not impress

either. At home, I favour Melbourne High to win.

Two round 1 winners Kew and La Trobe University

meet on Victoria Park Kew started slowly last week

while the Trobers won easily. The small ground will

suit Kew, but I believe that La Trobe can win.
