FOOTBALL FEAST
Club XVIII Grand Final day is one of the biggest
weekends
at
Sportscover
Arena
and
congratulations to the four premiers – Collegians,
Old Brighton, Old Essendon and Old Melburnians.
Approximately 3000 people attended the ground to
watch these games and I am sure everyone was
sufficiently entertained to mark it in their diary for
next year.
That said, this weekend is unique in the VAFA
because our clubs can be at once, finishing the
home and away season, playing finals and
celebrating the post-season.
This weekend is also is our most difficult
administratively. Our Umpiring Department must
arrange field, goal and boundary umpires for 32
finals and 20 A and B section matches. The VAFA
hosts all finals and we require volunteers to be
ground managers at each of the venues.
Outstanding work by our Football Department has
meant that we have been able to secure great
grounds including the Junction and Sandringham
and in the following weeks, Box Hill, Coburg and
Preston.
Whilst this week may present its difficulties
logistically, it also provides us with some
intriguing matches.
In both A and B Section there are virtual qualifying
finals, with De La Salle and St Bede’s Mentone
Tigers battling for the right to play Old Xaverians
and St Kevin’s and St Bernard’s meeting for the
right to take on Old Melburnians in next week’s
respective second semis.
De La has surprised A Section teams with their
brave running and sharing of the ball. No doubt
they will need to maintain confidence in their game
plan if they are to defeat the Tigers, who appear to
be peaking at the right time.
B Section has arguably
been our most competitive
and this week, each match
has significance on either
finals or relegation. It is not
often you get a true R18
relegation battle and the Michael Sholly
Ormond and Hampton CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER
Rovers clash is, for mine,
the match of the round.
This will be cut-throat football at its best and there
will be no holds spared at Boss James Reserve.
Trinity will need to win against the fast finishing
Carey to stave off the Uni blacks’ challenge for the
four.
With C-D4 finals on us this weekend, four senior
teams will be celebrating promotion on Sunday
night, while five will be out of the race for 2009.
The dual prizes of premiership and promotion
makes all these games that much more riveting.
Caulfield, Rupertswood, Peninsula and Bentleigh
go into the second semi-finals as favourites
against MHSOB, Werribee, Williamstown and St
Francis Xavier respectively. D4 have final five with
La Trobe Uni playing Kew and the winner playing
minor premiers Albert Park next week.
Friday night at Sportscover Arena will see another
wonderful experience for our junior players with
our inaugural Under 18 finals. The two standout
teams, Northern Bullants and Oakleigh have met
three times during the season, and it’s with 2-1 in
favour of Oakleigh.
It’s a feast of football action that might just be my
favourite VAFA weekend? Or does it get even better
next week, with preliminary finals on the menu?
Whatever your favourite weekend of VAFA football,
I am confident you will need your copy of Amateur
Footballer at hand to check on ladders, promotions
and next week’s matchups as the results come
flooding in.

A SECTION

Round 17 was one for the front-running tipsters to tick
the favourites with confidence and impunity. Nothing
really changed: some teams firmed, others just died a
little more. It was the round we had to have, though it
looked to be a bit of a yawn, and indeed, was exactly that.
No feathers ruffled, no ripping rags-to-riches yarns, the
favourites saluted and the Pick 5 paid $1.05. That’s just
the way it was, a rare dead spot in a lively season that
has produced drama and disappointment, though it must
be said, evolution rather than revolution.
Marcellin had an opportunity to guarantee their spot and
end Collegians’ fading finals’ hopes, but they found
trouble early and were pounded late. The Purples had no
shortage of contributors as they added sixteen goals to
four after a cautious beginning. Shura Ta ft, whose
season began just this month, kicked six in a display not
unfamiliar to Lions’ fans. M i ke Dye r was again
prominent for the Colls, as were the brothers Ba xter, Tim
and Andre w. The Marcellin names were all too familiar –
Ca m Ma cLa re n, Dan Cul l i na n and Da l l a s Ja rre d.
Down at the Beach, the Brighton nightmare went another
week. This time it was De La who came in to steal the
four points from the Tonners. Le i gh Ha rri son and Mi ck
Dugga n got four each, which was enough to match OB’s
output for the afternoon. Dan Cl ose , Ja ke Gotch and
Josh Oa kl ey were named best in a solid Blue and Gold
team effort, while the home team had just few who got
the job done, among them, Andre w Edge, who worked
hard and Tom Me nti pl a y, who kicked three and was its
most effective forward.
Old Scotch travelled to Mentone and to no-one’s
surprise, went down to the reigning premier. The Tigers,
however, did not have it all their own way, though the
lead they established by quarter time held up. La chie
Thompson and Charl ie Ta ll e nt were again standouts in
a young Cardinals team, while no-one would have been
surprised to see Sa m Anste y, Brett Col li ns and Ja me s
“ Ta xis” Tyquin among the Combine’s top contributors.
Xavs welcomed Old Essendon, toyed with them for a
quarter and then put them to the sword. Da mi an Lynch
and Jon Me rcuri were dangerous, while Mick Da rve ll
and Rya n Col bert ensured they were never starved of
opportunity. Jorda n Le a sk and Tre nt Skurri e were best
for the Bombers, the latter doing a good job on Ma tt
Ha ndl e y, though the big blond did break free to kick
three.
2
University Oval was the last
chance saloon for the
Browns, but the Blues were
in no mood for upheaval.
With Ja ck Wa tts dominant,
the Varsity powered away
early, only to be drawn back
in by a determined Old Ivanhoe, who won praise from
many for their persistence. Dre w Sol l y was back to his
best for the victors while Stue y Low and captain-coach
Brad Thompson battled away for the visitors.
THIS WEEK:
The clash at Waverley Park between De La Salle and St
Bede’s Mentone Tigers will decide who takes second
slot. The first time around, at Brindisi Street, the Tigers
tested De La early with its eighteen man blitz, but the
visitors hung in and then gave it back even harder to
register a famous win.
Recent form suggests the outcome here will be different,
though De La’s apparent dip in form has in large part
come in games against lesser fancied opponents, Uni
Blues excepted. The Mentonians have the twin ambitions
of revenge and a second-semi spot, and playing on this
foreign turf shouldn’t hamper their progress. The
reigning premier seems to have hit top form at the right
time and are playing with the confidence and the
swagger for which they have become quickly renowned.
Old Scotch tackle Uni Bl ue s (and Collegians will be
hoping they tackle them hard). Six weeks ago, this
looked a marquee match-up, but recent form has taken
some of the shine off the contest. Yes, it’s still vital, as
Blues need to win to guarantee their booking at
Sportscover, it’s just that it’s hard to say Scotch raising
the necessary firepower to steal the points. Their team
sheets of late reveal names unknown to us, and the focus
is already on the future. By contrast, blues look to regain
a couple of stars to add to their mix.
The Purples, apart from hoping for a Scottish revival,
also hope they can go with Xavs. Last time, they lost by
the even hundred, though no-one expects that to happen
on the Trott. Will the league leader rest players, and if so,
will it make any difference to the result? Can the Purples
maintain their good form against a top flight opponent?
Expect a scrappy, low scoring affair with the final siren
high up there in the day’s highlights.
Old Brighton head north to meet Ol d Ivanhoe in the final
chapter of their sorry season. Once again, rain could be
the key and the wetter the better for the Browns. All clubs
like to finish with a bang rather than a whimper, but a top
effort here from either club will merely leave their fans
asking “why, why now?” I suspect that the home team
will win in what could prove a rather bitter/sweet day at
Chelsworth.
Old Essendon had harboured hopes that this final home
clash would give them the victory they need to stay in A
Section. As things have transpired, Ma rce l l in have
around fifty-five goals to play with and need only to take
the field to guarantee their A Section spot. The 2008 B
Section Grand Final that featured both these clubs is but
a distant memory.
The big question mark is the weather. Rain, and lots of it,
is currently predicted for Saturday, so a wild contest may
ensue. Such mayhem will neither suit nor dissuade
anyone. The reigning premier is quick, but De La is
quicker, but how well can they swim? It’s certainly not
looking like a day for the high marking forwards, though
football punditry is a safer occupation than meteorology.
It’s difficult to go past Be de’s in this one – wiser, more
experienced, perhaps slightly more talented - though it
would not really surprise to see the Dees find their very
best when needed and take the massive prize.

Round 18
Re vi e ws
1 round to go but so much to still be decided. Round 17 was
a girl in a Burqa....it didn’t reveal too much. Technically we still
have 6 contenders and 4 teams fighting like all hell to stay up
although this scribe cant see the light at the end of the Blacks
or Bloods tunnel.
I’ll start my report with the match of the round out at Marles.
The game certainly lived up to expectations yesterday. Uni
Blacks rocked by the pre-game withdrawal of Matty Kempton
and the big Savige came out of the blocks and fairly led OT a
merry dance getting out to a first half leading by 38 points.
Much of the dominance attributed to Aaron Rau who seemed
to be everywhere.
OT Coach Brett Chandler gave his boys a fair spray that would
have made a sailor blush at the long break and it obviously
worked with the boys responding with a season defining 3 rd
quarter. Six goals into the wind in the third quarter with the
timeless Ramsden kicking four all from strong marks on the
40 metre mark.
Still 14 points down at the final change OT had the wind and
all the momentum, it didn't take long to over haul the Blacks
and the rest is history. The winners have almost certainly
booked themselves into the finals. They were best served by
Captain Brent Walsh, his brother Tim and the impressive
Jessop. However the star of the day was undoubtedly the old
stager Rambo with a 7 goals to wrap up the B section goal
kicking comp.
The other game with massive ramifications was out at
Ormond. Carey travelled south east to take on a badly
struggling Os outfit. In many long years of watching Amateur
Football I can not recall a more stunning loss of form. When
the newly promoted C grade champs knocked off OMs you
simply could not have imagined that they would find
themselves in this position.
To the game, winning the toss and kicking with the aid of a
strong breeze Carey was able to keep Ormond goal-less until
half way through the second term and took a 15 point
advantage into the main break . By the end of the third quarter
the game was over as OCs lead extended to 47 points. Ormond
fought hard in the last term and finally were defeated by 33
points.
Ryan Martin was best of the Ormond players getting plenty of
the footy on the wing and through the middle of the ground.
While Howat just racked them up for Carey.
Special mention should be made to Ormond stalwart Matt
McConvill who battled hard in the ruck in what was his last
game for the club after 20 years of senior football. In that time
Matt has won competition best and fairest as well as an
Ormond best and fairest and in one amazing year at
Sandringham had the distinction of coming runner up in the
seconds’ competition B& F as well as the Liston trophy .
Just to make sure the Hampton/Ormond clash this week had
absolutely everything riding on it OM went through an under
strength Hampton Rovers like a hot curry.
8
The B Section ladder leaders &
premiership favourites had a
near full-strength side including
all four Beaumont’s playing
together in the seniors for the
first time and were far too good.
As seems to be the norm, it was
again windy, favouring the St Kilda end in the opening term, of
which the Rovers had the advantage of. The visitors kicked the
opening goal of the game however it didn’t take long for the
OM’s to warm up – they went on to kick five majors to the
Rovers two to hold a 16 point lead at the first change.
The second quarter was a repeat of the first, again five goals
to two in favour of the home side to stretch their margin to 39
points at the long break. Old Melburnians pace and skill all
over the ground was proving to be way more than the Rover
could handle.
It was all Old Melburnians in the second half eventually
running out 77 points winners and sealing top spot.
It was also blowing a gale out west where the Snowdogs took
on the Bloods. St Bernard’s started like a train kicking to the
southern end with a 4 goal breeze favouring the southern end
The Snowdogs went into the first huddle with a tidy lead.
Coming out from the break the bloods were buoyed by an early
goal to Voss. Four more to OH and two to St Bernards saw the
game almost level at the long break. The Premiership quarter
proved to the turning point as the Bloods were able to hold
their own against the wind.
The game was the visitors for the taking. When former VSFL
premiership player Laz ran an open goal the Bloods looked
liked they had sealed the deal. However this Bernards vintage
are full of fight and got back into the match looking like they
would sneak a win. Alas for the West Essendon boys on 27
minutes mark former B section B& F winner Tony Brown roved
beautifully and converted from about 65 metres out. There
would be no miracle escapes this time and St Bernards were
consigned to losing 2 on the bounce meanwhile for the victors
season 2009 lives another day.
Out in North Balwyn SKOB were playing for a potential double
chance while Old Camberwell were playing for their skin. With
wildly varying motivations it was a game the held considerable
interest. For the opening bounce it was all Old Camberwell in
the first half, they looking like it should have been them and
not their visitor on the cusp of a finals campaign the Home
side took a 5 goal lead into half time. Not overly dis-similar to
the half time lead the side held in corresponding fixture earlier
in the year.
The long trip down to the change rooms bought about a
change in the second half. With the game at their mercy and B
section 2010 beckoning Camberwell were unable to extend
their half time lead despite kicking with the aid of a strong
breeze; a 5 goal lead at ¾ time left the door was very much ajar
for the fast finishing SKOB.
The barnstorming finish has become somewhat of a
trademark of SKOB 2009, this has been required due to the
V
THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2009
continued poor starts the Tri-colours like to dish out in equal
measure. Round 17 proved to be no different, skipper Ben
Dowd led by example, his hard work and courageous acts
getting the side back into the contest.
Inch by inch SKOB crawled their way back into the match and
finally it was left to 2009 recruit Luke Williams, on a tight angle
with a shot on goal to put SKOB in front with minutes
remaining. As he did earlier in the season his checkside sailed
through the middle and SKOB hill erupted as they hit the lead
for the first time since the opening minutes of the contest.
The visitors were good enough to hold on for a win and move
into second place while Camberwell, much like Bon Jovi are
livin’ on a prayer. Results now need to go their way to be a B
section side in 2010.
Pre vi e ws
Well what a massive massive last round of football.
Ill start out at Boss James for the match of the day. Very rarely
do sides get the chance to atone for grand final loses but for
Hampton here it is. Expect a massive crowd down bayside way
to see the loser disappear from B section and the winners go
into Mad Monday with some serious gusto. As I said last week
it’s impossible to tip Ormond given recent form. Rovers by a
smallest possible margin.
Carey take on Trinity not knowing if they have already done
enough while Trinity would want to make sure there not any
freak results that knock them out. Ill take the Ts with Rambo
to kick another bag.
OC vs. OH. Camberwell lose and they are GAWN…it’s that
simply. The Bloods have run into some cracking form and will
end Camberwell as a B section jaunt. (Slightly beside the point
but OH have a great record against the teams inside the 4,
Doubles against SKOB & Bernards)
Blacks take on OMs at the Varsity. Uni actually took the points
at their last meeting but I don’t fancy a repeat. The Red Legs
to put the boots into a desponded Students outfit.
If the blockbuster out at Boss James is the MOTD than the
Snowdogs vs. SKOB game is a pretty handy support act. Both
side approaches this game two wins from A section. Bernards
have struggled of late and will no doubt have their poor finish
to last season in the back of their mind. Balancing that will be
a great recent record against St Kevs, many Bernards people I
have spoken to this week believe they have a mental edge over
their east suburban brethren.
In the biggest match between the two sides since the 2001 A
section prelim final I’ll go for the home side with plenty back
to stem the tide of poor starts and fall over the line against a
fast finishing Snow-dogs.
Finally I’ll be putting together my team of the year this week.
Great chance to pump up your favourite player or even
yourself. wi l l _mcca nn@hotma i l . com

RISING STAR
JESS RUSH – RUPERTSWOOD
This week’s Rising Star is Jess Rush of Rupertswood.
After a solid preseason with the senior squad, the 17 year-old Jess Rush has continued to
improve and impress his coaches and teammates alike.
On Saturday, the 6’1” youngster booted six goals in the club’s win over Fitzroy.
The highlight of Jess's game is his work-rate and use of the football. He has a massive engine
that allows him to get to a high number of contests and to assist other players.
Rupertswood is looking for big things from Jess in the finals and in future years.
Well done Jess.

C SECTION
by Johnny Aitken
Strange results from Round 18 add mystery to the
finals makeup, Oakleigh surging much like Collingwood
of recent weeks straight into premiership contention
with their dispatching of MHSOB while Beaumaris and
Caulfield stumbled against D1 bound Monash Blues
and Bulleen-Templestowe respectively.
AROUND THE GROUNDS
Out to Ted Ajani Oval, battling Bulleen-Templestowe
welcomed the Caulfield juggernaut, punters happy to
take the $1.08 on offer for the ladder leaders
throughout the week. However, alarm bells rang early in
the first quarter, the Fields not showing any willingness
to match the Bullants hardness around the contests
with their pretty football game plan shifting the
mismatch on paper into a see-sawing battle. Veteran
Bullant De a n Ma tthe ws was the focal point up forward,
his five goals overshadowing century chaser Andre w
Sl e vi son at the other end. The final siren saw both
teams locked on 74 points, a draw meaning a virtual
win to Bulleen-Templestowe.
Down to the sand belt, Beaumaris decided to rest
several key names ahead of the finals as they met last
placed Monash Blues in a game of virtual touch
football. 17 weeks too late, the Sky Blues forward
Nathan Hicks put on a clinic for the $4.60 hot dog
eaters, his bag of eight majors creating one of the
upsets of the year as Beaumaris found little to go down
by 33 points. Jorda n Be l l was dominant in the middle
for Monash, Sharks Robbi e Ca thca rt nor Bra yde n
Ha yne s unable to stop him from attaining the Sherrin
at will.
Up Warrigal Road, MHSOB fans were making
preparations to leave at half-time, the Unicorns played
off the park as Oakleigh went into the main break
sixteen goals ahead. The Hoga n brothers and Le e
Ba rra nd all brilliant, their efforts complimenting the
B ro me l y and Ed wa rds show up forward, their

combined return of eight
goals capping an excellent
home
and
away
partnership. He a th Ta yl or
was one of the few
Unicorns to win his
position, his raw talent
pivotal in MHSOB stopping the bleeding, winning the
second half but still 82 points adrift at the final siren.
Across to Central Reserve, Mazenod ended the year on
a high, Cha ma th Ja ya we e ra snagging six goals while
Da vi d Ch a m be rl a i n put in a best on ground
performance to run out easy 53 point winners over
Ajax. For two teams predicted to be heavyweights of
the 2009 season, injuries have rendered them just out
of the Top 4. Ajax in particular has had a horror run
home, losing seven of its last nine games.
Finally at Gerry Green Reserve, Parkdale farewelled
club legend Tony Ma cGe orge in style, turning around a
four goal deficit at quarter time to ease away with a 57
point victory. Ma tt Bola nd responded to his omission
from the team of the year with six goals, sidekick
Da rre n Rochford slotting five of his own as the pair got
the Vultures Nest rocking. There wasn’t a dry eye in the
house after the game, Ma cGe orge strolling off the
Parkdale turf for the last time ever.
SEMI-F INAL PREVIEW
Both finals are to be held at the historic Junction Oval,
fittingly the last two matches of football to be played at
the ground which from next season will be a cricket
only venue.
1st Se mi -F i na l
Ca ulfi e l d Gra mma ria ns ($1. 70) v MHSOB ($2. 10)
Stuttering into the finals, Caulfield should display a
more aggressive showing against the Unicorns who
put in their worst performance of 2009 against
Oakleigh. Caulfield have had the measure of MHSOB so
far, but the Unicorns will welcome back a bevy of stars
including bohemiath ruckman Roge r McIntyre , that will
give it the optimum lineup to thrust it straight into the
Grand Final and B Grade for 2010. Much responsibility
for the Fields will fall upon full-forward An dre w
Sl e vi son, nine short of his ton but interestingly has
kicked just the seven goals against the Unicorns, 2009
revelation Andre w “ The Gl ove ” Vi l l a ni to get the
shutdown role on the little dynamo.

Oa kl e i gh ($1. 60) v Be a uma ris ($2. 20)
Beaten in both encounters against the Sharks, failing to
kick a combined 100 points in both matches, Oakleigh
have sparked up at the right time and head into their
elimination final as the side to beat. Boasting the
firepower of Bromely and Edwards which will test any
team in the competition, Beaumaris’ defending ace
Mark Ensor will need to be in two places at the same
time. It will be fascinating to see how the Sharks fare
without their stats van, with no room at the Junction
Oval for the Beaumaris brains trust to set up their hightech operation. No Carey, no North Melbourne. No stats
van, no Beaumaris.

VAFA d gossip
an
FOR THE LOVE OF THE GAME...
The Umpires’ Pre-Final Dinner was
held this week and opened a few eyes
in the non-arbritating community. L u ke
“ V i d e o K i l l e d th e R a d i o S t a r ” H o l m e s
put in a huge effort producing the
audio-visuals and was omnipresent on the big screen
himself. Tim Sutcliffe and Rob Mayston received life
memberships, but we have to wait until GF week to
learn who will win Umpy of the Year.
O l d Sco t ch’s reliable A n d re w Q u a i l
rings up his 150th this weekend.
Andrew played as a defender for two
seasons in the Old Scotch under 19s,
but now he usually plays on the
forward line as a regular member of
the 1st XVIII. Andrew is a popular
player with team-mates and opponents alike. He is a
good clubman, always participating enthusiastically
in the Cardinals’ social events and often helping to
organise them. A s h W a l s h also celebrates a
milestone with the Cardinals after arriving at
Camberwell three seasons ago from Yea FC as part of
Old Scotch's policy of recruiting quality country
players. He is a quietly-spoken young man with
plenty of ability as a midfielder. Ash recently won
back his position in the 1st XVIII after playing much
of the 2009 season in the 2nd XVIII.
Confucius say “It is unwise to give
umpires lip, but downright foolish
to give them a microphone.”
B e nt l e i g h ’s Sh a u n “ K i n gi e ” Ad a wa y
nails 150 this week and continues to
be a great servant of the club.
Although regularly giving away
height to opposition ruckmen, he
usually gives his teammates first use
of the ball.
The VAFAUA might be the only body in
the world that features the word
“Association’ twice in its name. Just a
thought!

Angry mob scenes
avoided
at
Sportscover last
Sunday
when
hundreds of fans
picketed
the
c a n t e e n
demanding ‘Wick
burgers. That big
warm bun and huge hunk of meat, the signature dish
of the VAFA was strangely unavailable because of a
bakers’ strike, forcing many to starve during the Club
XVIII games or else eat lesser fare.
E l st e rn wi ck’s Je r o me K a i ce r finally
managed to play his 50th game for the
club last week. Jerome joined the
‘Wickers in 2005 but was restricted in
the number of games he was available
for due to work commitments and
injury. Playing the majority of games
in the reserves, his determination and run off the
back line is an inspiration to his team mates.
It was a pretty windy day at
Elsternwick last Sunday but it couldn’t
blow harder than did Collegians’
President
Wayne
Dyer,
who
performed commentary duties for the
Lions’ Club XVIII premiership team.
Dyer began confidently and called the
game in an even-handed fashion – until the Colls
broke it open – then all pretense at impartiality went
out the window as the Prez went into serious
overdrive. With every goal came a bigger yelp. A
truly classic piece of broadcasting that would be
worth a listen. As we write, the balcony is being
checked for sonic damage to its structure.
Scores galore . . . and not. Parkdale
Vultures U19s had twenty players
line up and twenty players score
goals in last week’s game. Six of
them managed to draw twin calicos
in the final quarter. Meanwhile, OM’s
premiership Clubbies skipper James
Newton was thrust forward in the final term to try to
get him on the board, but alas, it didn’t happen.
Didn’t happen for the Old Essendon Reserves either,
beaten by Xavs 30.30.210 to zip.

D1 SECTION
by Di Langton
I feel really bad. You know when you’re so comfy in a
relationship that you can just sledge away without
fear of reprisal? No matter how ordinary it gets,
you’re joined at the hip and so self-assured you fling
any nasty ol’ comment you like, knowing full well
they’ll still be there at the end, loyal and true. Well last
week I was a cow. Sure, performance had not been up
to scratch but I just let fly with the stinging barbs like
‘abysmal’. And yeah, I might’ve suggested you were
no cert to stay, but as everyone knows, chicks say
stuff they don’t mean all the time. In a cruel twist
you’ve just up and left and I’m still in a state of shock.
Sure, you can blame others, say they were conspiring
against us, but we know the truth. Goodbye Prahran,
can I have my CDs back?
ROUND EIGHTE EN REVI EW
The middling clash between North Old Boys St
Patricks and Old Mentonians could well have been a
ho hum affair, nothing to be gained for either except a
winning end to a fairly beige season. The Panthers
hosted and NOBS dominated for most of the game to
take a 33 point lead at the last change and yes, a fairly
predictable result was looming. Ooh but wait, what’s
this? The Panthers showed some serious ginger in
the last kicking 9 goals and reversed the deficit,
winning by 33 points! Not so tedious after all, and the
Panthers’ mad Monday was anything but.
ahead of today’s semi. But
gird your bustles and
hedgerows; I think they’re
about to get medieval.
Similar ducks and drakes
at Whitefriars College in a somewhat timid affair.
Werribee maintained a steady lead throughout the
game, notching up a 29 point win and a little payback
for round seven …but without the breakdance
fighting. Tigers De a n and Pa l mi ngt on are in prime
finals form, while plenty of well rested Friar Men will
push for selection in today’s clash with Fitzroy.
South Melbourne Districts took a dramatic final stand
at Albert Park, determined to stay in D1 and worked
hard from the first bounce. Prahran struggled to move
the ball forward, the Bloods taking full advantage and
by half time their tenure was secure. The Two Blues’
only hope of survival in this section was to reduce the
deficit and hope that ESL could do the same against
Aquinas - thereby keeping a superior percentage.
Unable to make any inroads in the final quarter,
however, Prahran’s fate was sealed as the shellshocked crowd was seen scratching its collective
head in the eerie blue glow of mobile phone
calculators.
Fitzroy hosted Rupertswood at BSO in one of two topend dead rubbers that brought to mind that weird
saying reminiscent of a whacky Led Zeppelin lyric (but
I think it’s actually from the bible), something about
hiding your light under a bushel. The Roys had five
outs, noticeably captain O ’ R e i l l y (who ran the
messages), K e l l e h e r, B i g g s, et al and played
debutante, Ha rb or who kicked his first goal in senior
footy. Rupo had all the usual suspects on the ground,
but it was youngster Rush who kicked a handy bag of
6 as the visitors cruised to an effortless 41 point win
Is Aquinas the Steven Bradbury of D1? They were
gone. As in GAWN. Even if they beat Emmaus St Leos
last week they were still gone. To stay in D1 the
planets had to line up just so: they would have to beat
Emmaus by HEAPS; they’d have to promise to tidy up
their rooms; South Melbourne would have to win;
they’d have to wear one sock up, one sock down; and
Prahran would have to lose by HEAPS. Well that’s
what happened and Aquinas literally stood up on the
ice with the two arm salute and sailed through the
finish line doing a crazy little dance, singing narneenarnee-nah-nah.

SEMI F INALS PREVIEW
First of all, congratulations to Rupertswood spearhead,
Le i gh Bre nna n, on winning the 2009 D1 Goal Kicking
with 68 majors. Leroy will hope to add to that tally
today as the minor premiers take on Werribee in what
will be a classic second semi struggle for a GF berth
and promotion to C grade. The St Bernard’s venue sits
halfway between the two clubs, who in their two
meetings thus far have each won away. Rupo dropped
down to D1 this year from C Grade, adamant it’s but a
fleeting visit; while the Tigers came up from D2 and
would surprise no-one if they kept that momentum
going. Both have finished the home and away season in
winning form on the road, and would love the week’s
rest. Werribee is the only team to have beaten
Rupertswood this year, and has had more recent finals
experience than the Sunbury outfit. It’s going to be a
close one, however I’m tipping Rupo by 10 points in
front of a huge crowd after their Reserves take on Old
Mentonians in the earlier game.
The first semi tomorrow between Whitefriars and
Fitzroy should also be a ripper as these two old stagers
bring out the big guns in a do-or-die at Central Reserve.
The Friars have had the wood over Fitzroy on both
occasions this year, but through injury, holidays and
suspension there hasn’t been a full-strength battle to
truly test their mettle but both will have a number of
significant ins, two teams close to their prime. It’ll be
an arm-wrestle early, but a three goal margin in the
end. Both will be at St Bernard’s looking at matchups
and tactics for the Preliminary, only one will get to put
those thoughts into action. And that will be Whitefriars.

thief, showering next to him took
his towel oblivious to the fact it
wasn’t his. Pe te r did the good old dog shake to rid of
the water (hairy Greek) and was last seen checking his
towel for any left behind short and curlies.
Still got it
It’s great that umpires who have had their time at the
higher ranks still run around at lower levels to help out
the up and coming umpires. One such umpire in Ma rk
Je nki ns runs around at U/19 level imparting his
wisdom onto umpires that require it. At one U/19 game
one club noticed his over the top wisdom on the
players, not only is it good to see Ma rk has not lost his
skill but he hasn’t lost the angry ant attitude. Good
effort Je rke r.
Double-barrelled Gunn
A fantastic effort last weekend by Club XVIII umpire
Ja mi e Gunn. Gunny was appointed as a field umpire
for one of the grand finals which itself is a great
achievement. Gunny arrived at Elsternwick Park nice
and early and put his hand up when the appointed
boundary umpire was a no-show in the curtain-raiser.
Result – two grand finals in one day. Is this a new
record/achievement?
Well done to David Windlow and the rest of the Club
XVIII panel.
Benny’s Rule of the Week
WHEN TO CALL PLAY-ON
It is imperative that when a player has been awarded a
free kick or takes a mark that when they move off their
line to play-on we call it quickly and tell everyone in a
loud voice why we have called play-on such as – playon you are round! – Play-on you have moved off line!

All VAFA Match results in The Age & Herald Sun each Sunday
Do not get caught calling play-on too quickly if the
player has not made a genuine attempt to do so – we
must concentrate so we get it right.
The VAFA does not have a time limit as to when a player
should be called upon to get the ball moving so we
should ensure a player moves the ball on after a
reasonable time has elapsed – this is a judgment call
and we should take in to account the level of football
being played.

D2 SECTION
by Caillin O’Shannessy
All good things must come to an end, and so it was last
Saturday with home and away season 2009 finishing in style.
The last round saw many sides giving their all to finish the
year on a positive note, and has shaped an intriguing first
week of finals for those that are left standing. After eighteen
grueling weeks only the super high quality teams remain, and
for them the next two weeks will define their season. For
those that didn’t make it, mad Monday will have helped them
forget their troubles and now it’s back to the drawing board.
Williamstown were able to overcome a persistent Old
Westbourne last weekend to secure second spot and a
double chance in the finals. Williamstown seemed the better
team for the first half, but Westbourne simply wouldn’t go
away and were still well and truly in the game. The third
stanza saw Westbourne come out with all guns blazing and
pile on six straight goals to go into their last quarter for the
season with a sixteen point lead. Williamstown then took
command in the last quarter and were able to quickly bridge
the gap with Ben Gra y and Andrew McKa y in good form. To
Westbourne’s credit they never gave up, but Williamstown
with more class and more to play for eventually ran out 22
point victors. This week is a great challenge for Williamstown
against flag favourites Peninsula, they should play with
nothing to lose and really test their mettle in a pressure
situation. For Westbourne the season has ended earlier than
they might have hoped, but there have been good signs,
especially in the latter stages of the season. The club will no
doubt look to 2010 with optimism.
way for Peninsula as they have
all year, and the only
disappointment for the day was
Captain Sha un Pa yze’s injury.
The Pirate’s assault on the
finals this year will be hard to
stop, and Williamstown have
that undesirable task this weekend.
Therry Penola’s morale boosting victory over Banyule was a
telling one, and could provide a psychological edge as they
meet again in the first elimination final. It was a low scoring
affair and both teams worked hard into the wind. It was not
until the third quarter that Therry Penola was able to open up
a healthy buffer that ultimately won them the game. Banyule
fought back gallantly in the last but was unable overcome
Therry, who produced a good team performance. Jarrod
Egglestone continued his impressive year, and they will be
comforted in the knowledge they can beat a good side with a
relatively low scoring contribution from Core y Ba nni ste r.
Therry Penola at their best is certainly a force to be reckoned
with, but when the wheels fall off they can be a shambles. The
pressure of finals football will be a good test for them.
Yarra Valley’s last hurrah for the year was a valiant effort
against Glen Eira. In a high scoring affair both teams were
clearly desperate to finish with a win, but it was the Saints
who proved they had made much progress throughout the
year. Yarra Valley had their opportunities and were wasteful in
front of goal, while Glen Eira only needed half a chance to
snatch victory. It was a high quality match and both teams
can take positives for the season. Glen Eira will look to take
another step forward next year and push for finals, while
Yarra Valley will take relegation as an opportunity for success
and improvement.
As to the unbackable premiership favourites, Peninsula
maintained their winning form and appear set to embark on a
successful finals campaign. The Pirates were always in
control against Old Paradians last week despite failing to
apply scoreboard pressure early on. The Paradians battled
hard against the minor premiers and applied fierce pressure
all around the ground but were simply outplayed by a better
team. The Paradians are another team that would no doubt
have hoped for a finals berth, but should not be too
disappointed with a season that contained some good wins
and much improvement. Al Wood and Tom Re e s lead the
Eltham finished disappointingly, losing badly to the relegation
bound Ivanhoe. It has been a season of ups and downs for
Eltham, but with more consistency they could have a much
better season next year. Ivanhoe would have enjoyed
finishing the year with such a comprehensive victory.

. . . Retrospective
5 YEARS AGO – 2004
by Geoff Reilley
In the C Section first semi-final, Monash Blues met
Parkdale Vultures at Sandringham. The Blues had the lion’s
share of the play but could not convert and the Vultures
defence was to be commended for applying appropriate
pressure as did their on-ball brigade. Parkdale were 2 goals in
front at the first change and still enjoyed a margin of 7 points
at half time. De Young, Renton and Smyth were excellent for
the Ashers while the O’Sullivan boys and O’Meara were
working hard for Parkdale. With Rowley and Macgeorge
becoming more dangerous as time wore on, the Vultures got
out to almost 4 goals ahead at three quarter time while Monash
still had plenty of the ball but could not find a secure avenue
to goal. With Parkdale’s defence working overtime as Monash
mounted a huge challenge early in the last term, suddenly the
goals started to come for Monash and the Monash defence
shut down the dangerous Parkdale forwards. Craven, Smith
and Gregory became really dangerous forwards for Monash
and despite a Vultures’ goal against the flow, Monash, with 5.8
in the last quarter, ran out winners 12.16 to 11.14 in a very
entertaining game. Best players – De Young, Janssen,
Renton Farrar, Craven (3), Smyth (Monash) and Dixon, M
Sullivan, Rochford, Johnston, O’Meara, P O’Sullivan
(Parkdale). Mark Gibson and Peter James, two very
experienced and former A Section Grand Final Field
Umpires controlled the game.
The second semi-final in C Section saw Melbourne High
School Old Boys fail to take full advantage over Caulfield
Grammarians in the first quarter with multiple shots on goal.
They still looked in good state at quarter time 4.8 to 4.1. In
excellent conditions, both teams had key forwards who were
great targets, Jason Bamert (MHSOB) and Brett Sinclair
(CGFC). Caulfield were more accurate but MHSOB increased
their lead slightly at half time, 6.14 to 6.1 and may well have
had the game sown up. After half time Brett Sinclair, Mark
Liddell and Ben Gross led the charge up forward with majors
and Caulfield hit the lead just before three quarter time. In a
great last quarter, Caulfield continued their surge with
Thompson, Pertzel and McCully working overtime for
MHSOB but even their efforts could not stop the inevitable as
Caulfield celebrated their return to B Section in many years,
15.9 to 10.21. Best players – Fagan, Will, B Gross, B
Sinclair, Fallu, Erickson (Caulfield) and Cassell,
Thompson, Gerner, Suirskis, Pertzel, McCully (MHSOB).
Geoff Caulfield and Damian Anderson were the “Men in
White”.
In D Section it was a thriller in the first semi-final as Fitzroy
Reds overran Ormond in the last quarter winning 10.10 to
10.7. Ormond seemed to have had the game in their keeping
with a three goal buffer at the final change but the Reds were
32
too strong and deserved their
win. Best players –
Atherton,
Meighan,
Cianci, O’Reilly, Drury,
Rawlins (Fitzroy) and
Keleher, Miller, Whelan,
Robbins, Martinov, Bailey
(Ormond).
It was a very comfortable victory for the highly fancied
University Blacks in the second semi-final over Banyule.
The undefeated Blacks continued their charge toward a
“champion status” season and were never seriously threatened
apart from Banyule’s 5 goal to 3 goal second term. With a final
winning score of 19.11 to 11.12 few thought the Blacks would
be threatened in two weeks time. Best players – Rawnsley,
Batten, Barry, Sibilia (5), M Kempton, A Costello (Uni
Blacks) and O’Connell (5), D Gayfer, Williams, Demetriou,
Brown, P Gloury (Banyule).
10 YEARS AGO – 1999
Old Geelong ran away with the C Section first semi-final and
following on from their 5.9 to Assumption Ivanhoe’s 1.2 in
the first quarter, were never pressured. Over 10 goals up at
three quarter time, OG went into cruise control in the last and
won 17.20 to 8.17. Best players – Taylor, Higgins, J Wilson
(6), Fisher, L Wilson, W Paul (OG) and Doherty, Jacka, Lee
(3), McFarlane, Chazan, Narkiewicz (Ivanhoe/
Assumption). Old Geelong’s day was complete as their
reserves also won 13.6 to 5.7.
D Section, with twelve teams, saw the elimination final won
by Thomastown over Old Camberwell, 9.7 to 7.5.
Thomastown led from start to finish. Best players –
Farchione, P Valeri, Godino, Delpapa, Buron, Scott
(Thomastown) and S Derry, S Hancock, Rowe, C Williams,
Spurritt, Alex (Old Camberwell).
The D Section qualifying final between AJAX and Old
Essendon was a fluctuating affair, Essendon holding the early
advantage and AJAX mounting their charge just before half
time. The Jacka’s third quarter was a telling period and they
increased their lead to win 14.17 to 11.8 in a great last quarter
(4.6 to 1.0). Best players – Levin, P Goldberg, Cohen,
Gelbart, Halphen, Rajch (AJAX) and Goodger, Dragoljo,
Doolan, Fletcher, Hunter, Fleming (Old Essendon).
20 YEARS AGO – 1989
In A Section, it was a monumental round 18 game out at
Bundoora with fourth place up for grabs for either the visitors,
Marcellin Old Collegians, or the home team, Old
Paradians. Marcellin held the first advantage with 4.4 to 3.3
V
THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2009
at quarter time in a high standard game. Joe Amad and Matt
Getson were setting the early standard for the Eagles and the
Considine boys were in the action for Parade. Paradians lifter
their work rate and with Brendan McClements the main
instigator, held a 17 point lead at the main change. Back came
Marcellin in the third term with Origlasso and Lennox firing
but a 9 point lead may not be enough with Parade having the
scoring end in the last quarter. In a truly great last term
typifying the amateur spirit, Marcellin did not score a goal but
still held on to a slender lead and finally won by 4 points and
looked forward to a first semi-final encounter the following
week. Best players – J Amad, Origlasso, M Getson,
Lennox, Zannoni, Battistella (Marcellin) and Wood,
Heffernan, Angove, M Considine, P Considine,
McClements (Paradians).
Typical of the promotion/relegation pressure of two up two
down out of only ten teams, B Section held a few more shocks
in the final home and away round. Monash Blues played a
fantastic game against the more favoured Old Melburnians,
winning 12.7 to 4.9 and therefore avoiding relegation. The
Blues were desperate from the word go and their form of the
past few weeks had really been ‘relegation avoidance’ at its
best. The OM’s remained in fifth place. Best players – Kiers,
Culvenor, J Quin, Hipwell (3), Alexander, Kohler (Monash
Blues) and Smith, Con, Pisarski, Tyrrell, Nicholls, A Witts
(OM’s).
John Kanis played his 200th game covering his career firstly
at Caulfield Grammarians and with University Blues where
he was currently Captain. JK’s dash and ability had played a
significant part in the Blues rise back up the A Section ladder.
(John is presently the senior coach of the Blues – GR)
30 YEARS AGO – 1979
In A Section, Ormond travelled to Old Paradians needing
to win to have a chance of replacing North Old Boys in the
top four. NOBS were expected to struggle against Uni
Blacks but the lure of a possible finals’ spot could well
change this prediction. Ormond may have kicked their
chances away with 3.8 to Parades’ 6 straight goals in the
first quarter. They did not improve their chances in the
second quarter with the scoreboard showing them 10.16 to
Parade’s 10.2. Paradians jumped to the lead (6 points) at
three quarter time as Ormond continued to miss shots on
goal (11.22). In what was a complete contrast in sharp
shooting, Ormond eventually won the game 16.29 to
Parade’s accurate 19.5 and the critical news came through;
NOBS had gone down to the Blacks and Ormond finished
in fourth place. Best players – Hardham, Naylor, Bourne,
Herkess, Buckley, Boyanton (Ormond) and C Hughes,
Grills, P Wood, McGough (5), B Considine (4), Roe
(Paradians).
In B Section Old Haileyburians joined Old Trinity for
relegation to C Section as they struggled against top team
AJAX and lost 9.9 to 17.17. Haileybury put up a reasonable
fight until half time but AJAX powered away in the second
V
THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2009
half. Best players – Bluzer (3), Zemski, Korn, Lisner,
Feldpicer, M Ritterman (AJAX) and Code (4), Gerny,
Meadows, Paul, Schmidt, Thomas (Old Haileybury).
40 YEARS AGO – 1969
There would be no changes to the A Section top four after
round 18 but Old Paradians (3rd) may well have been
concerned over their loss to University Blues, a team outside
the four. Paradians were struggling from the start and trailed at
quarter time and at half time. A temporary rally in the third
term was thwarted when the Blues answered the challenge to
win the quarter and won comfortably in the finish, 12.14 to
8.12. Best players – Owen, Hume, Norman, Barkley (3), R
James, Scarfe (Uni Blues) and Gordon, Quinlan, Audley,
Coghlan, O’Brien, Kendall (Old Paradians). Paradians
would need to lift their game as they were due to face up to an
in form Collegians outfit in the first semi-final.
Old Scotch in B Section were in a similar position given they
could not lose their spot in the top four but went down to Kew
(5th) in the final home and away game. This was an extremely
close encounter for the first three quarters and the scores were
all tied up at three quarter time, 6.13 each. Scotch hardly
troubled the scorers in the final term and could only manage 1
behind while Kew kicked 4.7 and their season finished on a
high note. Best players – (Kew must have been concentrating
on their end of season celebrations as they failed to tender their
better players!) for Old Scotch, Anderson, Hiddleston,
Sowden. Welch, Whitford (3), Wilson.
50 YEARS AGO – 1959
In the C Section first semi-final University High School Old
Boys outplayed and outpaced Glenhuntly in the first half and
did enough to hold on and earn the right to advance to the
preliminary final. UHS’ pressure caused the ‘Hunters to
fumble early and their strong backline cleared easily enough
whenever Glenhuntly advanced. Glenhuntly made a short
comeback in the third term and again in the final quarter but
UHS always had the answers and won 11.17 to 10.8. Best
players – Shearn, Master, Leigh, Beissel, Rainsford, Jones
(UHS) and L Shannon, Bryant, Walker, Moss, N Smith,
Davis (Glenhuntly).
Powerhouse easily won the second semi-final 13.13 to
National Bank 6.17. Best players – Bishop, Crane, Pirrie,
Thompson, Hutchinson, Chalmers (Power house) and
Brewer, Wall, Mueller, Dunn, Neale, Daniels (National
Bank).
St Kilda CBC defeated St Kevins Old Boys in the D Section
first semi-final 11.17 to 10.8. Best players – O’Brien (4), E
Riordan, J Healy, Davidson, Sharkey, Sheehan (St Kilda
CBC) and Presnell, R Donohoe, Chapman, Filgate,
Bennett-King, Summers (SKOBS). AJAX won the second
semi-final final 9.17 to FTCOB 6.10. Best players –
Lebransky, D Merkel, Levy, R Merkel, Pratt, Bridgeman
(AJAX) and Carrall, Broadway, Luke, Kelly, Wardell, M
Wildie (FTCOB).

D3 SECTION
Bentleigh. We also congratulate Ben Spencer for winning the
D3 leading goal kicker award. His total of 61 goals was a
fantastic effort considering he played a lot of football during
the season in the midfield.
by Stephen Clarke
As I drove home from the footy yesterday in busy Melbourne
traffic I had time to reflect on the season and what I had been
lucky to witness since April. Our great game means different
things to different people but for me it’s about people
competing fairly and doing their best week in week out with a
smile at day’s end. I have been lucky to coach a flag, painfully
coached some huge losses but it always comes back to the
people, your mates, your foes, who make it all worth it.
There was some feeling at Ross Gregory in the last home
game for Powerhouse. They needed a win or at least a very
honourable loss to survive in the section. Their assignment on
paper was brutal, defeat Bentleigh who boasted some 16 wins.
Sure they took confidence from the fact they did defeat them
earlier on but their good form since has been absent. Bentleigh
rested Ja me s Robe rtson but had expectations of a good show
and inside a minute kicked a great goal. Luke F orre st was
running from end to end and opening up the hosts but then
they gradually started to win some contests and move the ball
with purpose. Rhys Humphre ys was silky with all his first half
touches and Ada m Col l e tt showed his finishing was of the
highest standard. Five goals each at half time had the crowd
wondering if Bentleigh could come out and simply blast the
lesser rated side away. However the ‘House continued to work
harder and kept their heads about them to score eleven second
half goals. Ba hr and Dri e sse n just won so many ‘fifty fifty’
balls through the day it made the difference. The end of the
game saw the end of playing careers of Da mi e n Bol a nd and
Da rre n Coope r. A changing of the guard at the lake now with
these two club champions having said goodbye on a win. The
Bentleigh form is not a worry but they were disillusioned with
the officials efforts on the day and drove south down the
highway refocusing for the finals.
with ‘ F e rga l ’ Sha rke y they were
great targets up forward all day for
the home side. At three quarter
time coach Naumoff saw his side
had registered sixteen majors and missed just three shots.
This was an outstanding return. Roha n Scott and Be n
Pi cke ri ng tried to ignite the visitors in the final term but the
gap was too great to close and they missed out on the win and
a finals berth. Monash left the field proud of their effort but
have gone down to D4 with some six wins. Considering eight
wins plays finals you would be shattered. It’s their first visit to
the lowest grade since 1998 which is amazing. But
considering it was the Gryphons who have the youngest
senior squad going around, their future is rosy and this
demotion might be nothing more than a speed hump in their
overall journey.
So with that result Monash needed a win and a massive one at
that to stay in the section. Their opponent St John’s needed
victory to grab fourth spot so the interest at East Caulfield was
immense. To be successful the Gryphons needed to convert
their chances all day and ensure they started, continued and
ended well. Chri s Le e ton bought his A game on this occasion
and continued his terrific second half of the season. Along
So with the bottom of the ladder sorted and the top four
settled now the attention turned to see who would finish in
second or third position. If the X Men were to gain that
valuable top two berth they had to gain a win at Elsternwick. At
times Dennis Grace’s men have started big games poorly and
today was no exception. An eleven goal romp from the away
outfit in the first term embarrassed the ‘Wicks and all but
decided the result for the day. The long term coach now was
fuming at the quarter time huddle and simply told his side
some home truths. Get working. And get it working together.
Suddenly the game was even and the goals flowing at both
ends. The home side realise that the hard work they do to win
the ball is rewarded through the genius of Scott Gra ce and big
Da ve Smi th. And it was Luke Si mmons who got things rolling
for the red and black brigade showing great form. The margin
had been cut from 79 points early in the 2nd term to just 2
points late in the final term and coach Lenders was urging his
men to keep positive and move the ball to their targets in
Pa bst and Spe nce r. They were able to hold on in this epic
finish which saw the X Men need all their great players to show
true form to take the points away. If this game means anything
on form then Elsternwick are very much in the mix to win a
final even though they finish fourth with an 8-10 record. Also
the X Men would be confident in their massive game against

TODAY’S D3 RESERVE MATCHES
V
THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2009
St Mary’s Salesian who have been extremely confident of
taking this competition for some weeks now had a chance to
sew up second spot with a trip to the Zoo and a match with
Uni High. Blustery conditions greeted both sides who enjoyed
an even first half where goals were shared between Al e x
Le a ch and Rya n Ste ve ns. The visitors were from there
inaccurate and wasteful going forward and the ramifications
of their actions has sent them into a sudden death final.
Eleven behinds was a slight disaster whilst for the home team
this was a positive end to a some what flat season.
The West Brunswick Magpies in 50 years have had success
but sadly 2009 never hit the really high notes. There were
moments like Saturday though when they simply outclassed
the Hawks all day to run out big winner son the score board.
The Hawks usual fortress that is Rathmines Road reserve is
no longer since Peter Tyson left the helm and a new breed of
players came to town. They never really held sides to low
scores this time round the Hawks and that hurt most games.
The Magpies wrapped up with a 70 point away win with
Ma cGuga n and La yl e y most effective. They may be a force
next year as they do take their A Grade on the road often
enough.
Huge thanks for the reports in season 2009. Jono Healy at
Monash deserves special mention along with Dennis Grace
and Colin Page at Elsternwick, Chris Seuren at SFX and Mick
Verberne at the ‘House
TIPS F OR F INALS –
Coming off zero from five, I make these with a low degree of
confidence . . .
Saturday Bentleigh versus St F ra nci s Xa vi e r
Going with the X Men just by just 6 points. Their top five players
should adjust well to Scammell in hopefully fine conditions.
Their scoring ability has increased and that is the key.
Seems ridiculous to pot a 16-2 side but just feel this will be
extremely close all day with the lower ranked side to prevail.
Sunday St Mary’s Salesian versus El ste rnwi ck
I think this is even tougher. Elsternwick did beat St Mary’s
Salesian at Ferndale 15 days ago and then the round 18
results firmly should place the red and balck unit as
favourites. But Scammell is a consideration and the fact that
maybe this is where the focus has been for SMS the past few
weeks. Say 14 points.

THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2009

D4 SECTION
by Duncan Palmer
The final round didn’t quite serve up the surprises that
beckoned, however certainly saw some tight battles as
several lower ranked sides took the game right to their more
highly rated opponents in an attempt to either make finals or
leave one last mark on the competition. Hopefully all the
sides that have finished will enjoy the off-season and look
forward to a fresh start in 2010. I offer commiserations
particularly to Mt Lilydale who missed at the final step, and
will rue injuries through the middle of the year. At their best
the Rams would have been worthy Grand Final contenders,
however sometimes that is the way the cookie crumbles.
Exciting times now beckon for the five sides left, with South
Mornington competing in their first finals series, Richmond
Central returning after many years, Albert Park searching for
their first flag, and already heading to D3, and Latrobe Uni
and Kew seeking to return to the higher echelons of the past.
At the College the Falcons enjoyed first use of the breeze and
steadily built a solid 5 goal lead with Tom King continuing his
dominant year at centre half forward. On the back of some
good running football from Daniel Cerra, in a second term
which lasted a remarkable 40 minutes, the Rams struck back
with a flurry of late goals> Jus ti n R obe rt s was also
prominent as the margin was reduced to a couple of points
at the last break. In a tense third term Mt Lilydale defended
stoutly and were able to restrict Albert Park to a 3 goal lead
at the final change. In the last though the Falcons ran and
ran, and you guessed it, ran, with St ua rt Ma unde r and
B re nda n Murna ne typically creative up forward. At the final
buzzer the Falcons had sewn up top spot and promotion to
D3, unfortunately for the Rams relegating them from the top
five in the process.
In the second game with a significant bearing on the final
make-up of the top five, Manningham hosted South
Mornington. The Cobras won the toss and enjoyed first use
of the breeze. With Be n Cookson in vintage form, the home
side was able to create a 21pt lead at the first change. Like
the Tigers, Manningham managed to kick a couple against
the wind, and appeared to be heading into the half-time with
an important lead, however elusive forward Ni ck Wood,
popped up with a couple of quick goals, including his 50th,
and helped South to a narrow lead. In the third the topsy-
turvy nature of the contest
continued as R ya n D a l e y
dominated through the
middle for the Cobras, and
South were staring down the
barrel at ¾ time. Sa m W ri ght
who had been brilliant all day sparked the Tigers, and with
C ol i n O’ Bri e n in his 100th dour in defence, and Gra nt Rya n
kicking a couple, South Mornington surged home, and into
their first senior finals campaign.
Chadstone were ferocious in the first term, taking the game
right up to the Snakes, who were a little shell-shocked
initially as the impressive K i e r a n C on ra u dominated.
Richmond quickly adjusted though and in the second
‘ Porsche ’ P oona s a my revved his engine, and almost single handedly tore the game open. A tight contest quickly became
a rout as Rury Li ddi e also displayed some of his trademark
class. In the third the Synners again stepped up their game,
but were unable to make the required inroads into
Richmond’s lead, and the Snakes carried on through the last,
with Chri s Crough finding some important form coming into
and exciting finals series.
In a game of contrasting styles, North Brunswick’s runners
attempted to combat the big marking Bear outfit. In the first
half Ja s on Ha r k i n s and A da m J e f f r e y showed their
counterparts a clean set of heels, and with Be n Wi l l i a ms
kicking accurately an upset was well and truly looming. Kew
to their credit tightened their defence in the third quarter
holding North top a solitary behind. Gre g Be l l took control
on the ruck, and He a t h McDe rmott controlled the air. At the
final change the Bears established a two goal lead. In the last
North threw everything at Kew, however with the all
important double chance beckoning, the Bears held on.
A ndre w De hne rt was fantastic all day for the victors, whilst
S a ndy F a mul a ri was impressive for North Brunswick.
Eley Park notched up their third win on the trot to finish of
the season as they comfortably won the battle of Box Hill.
After a good first quarter from the Demons, led by Cameron
Liston, the Sharks dominated. S te ve n Buge j a , the evergreen
Mi cha e l Vi ol a and Adri a n Pi l l a y were in everything as Eley
Park dominated the second quarter then ran away with the

contest in the third. Only some inaccurate kicking prevented
a far larger margin.
After an inaccurate first quarter where they kicked three
goals seven, Latrobe Uni tuned up nicely for the finals with a
dominant performance against Swinburne. Enjoying the
spaces of their huge ground, Latrobe benefited from the run
of B ra d Va n Ooi , Le i gh Coffe y, and clever forward Ge re mi e
Ga ni no. S tua rt P a t te n was in ominous form with eight goals,
whilst at the other end, competition goal-kicking leader A tti l a
Ya ma n was starved of opportunities.
I would like to take the time to thank all the press
correspondents for the year, and their efforts in improving
the articles that you read. It would be fantastic to receive
reports from all teams in finals, including reserves, and
please keep team of the year nominations coming.
F INALS PREV IEWS
Qua l i fyi ng F i na l - La Trobe Uni V Ke w
Two weeks ago Kew sealed third spot with a narrow win at
home against Latrobe Uni. This match promises another
tense contest as the fleet footed Latrobe runners will attempt
to overwhelm Kew. The Bears will be hoping that players like
Cra i g Horne , St e phe n Duk e , and Ja rrod Poxon are fit, or
they may find the task beyond them. At the same time Ti m
Ba gna l l has established himself as one of the premier
forwards in the competition and Gre g Be l l continues to be
one of the top ruckmen. LaTrobe is a very even side. They
certainly have some class players, none less than Coach
De a n She l dri ck, key forward S tua rt Pa tte n, and the Pres.
Bra d Va n Ooi , but it is their spread of talent that may prove
the edge. Garvey Oval is probably more similar to Victoria
Park in dimension and may suit the Bears however I feel the
Uni ve rsi ty si de can reverse their round 17 result and move
into D3 with a three point victory.
Re se r ve s: North Brunswick
El i mi na ti on F i na l - Ri chmond Ce nt ra l v South Morni ngton
Both these sides are renowned for their determined on-ball
divisions. Da ni e l P i ke for the Snakes and S a m Wri ght for the
Tigers are both tough, strong players, that are also endowed
with enviable skills. At either end classy forwards in Na tha n
Nuske and Robe rt W i l son are struggling with injury so it
may be McConvi l l e -B ra i n and Wood for South, or B usby and
the Andre ws for Richmond who may hold the edge in this
game. I expect this game to go to the wire, however
Ri chmond have held the edge over South this season and I
think they can maintain this with an eleven point win.

Under 18s
UNDER 18
by Joe Morsello
Joe y’s Jargon
And then their were four. Just another rubbish cliché I have
given you this year. Fine effort in Round 18 of the tipping to
punch in four winners but more importantly its finals time,
and Sportscover Arena Friday night and Saturday morning
there promises to be two tight clashes between four
deserved finalists. For the big one the bookies have firmed
Oakleigh into $1.55 with the Bullants not far away at $2.45.
Plenty of value about for UHS / Flem at $11 and the Snow
dogs at $14. Let’s see what happened in the last round of
Under 18 footy for 2009.....
La st Round:
UHS / F l e m v Ol d Ca mber we l l : Old Camberwell came out
firing for their last hit out for 2009 and although it was all
tight at the final turn the UHS boys stuck to their guns and
saluted by 14 points to hold onto third spot. It was Habel and
Bourke down back who were the key to UHS’s victory, along
with Allen in the ruck who was a consistent performer
throughout. For Camberwell, Benson and Tenace finished on
a good note.
Oa kl e i gh v St Be rna rds: St Bernards made the early trek
down the freeway to meet Oakleigh and gave a good account
of themselves a week out from the finals. Despite not taking
the points the Snow dog lads would have taken some
confidence out of this one. Hunt and Scott proved the
difference in the midfield and for St Bernards it was Sullivan
again showing his class.
The rr y Penol a v Northern Bul l a nts: The Bullants started
slowly but their midfield got on top to run away 42 point
winners. Therry tried their best in their last hit out for 2009
but unfortunately lacked the Bullants class. Better players for
Therry were Jones and B. Ratcliffe. For the Bullants, Viola
and Sutton were the main destroyers.
St Be de s/Me ntone Ti ge r s v St M a r ys/Sa l e si a n:
Unfortunately for St Bedes they left their run too late as their
win was soured with news of them missing the four despite
a 64 point victory. Shipsides was good again and staked his
claim for a team of the year spot. For St Marys Batchler and
Docker tried their hardest.

pressure will win. The Oaks may
have the upper hand with the
most dominant forwards in the
comp. Big Moustafa will have to
step up for the Bullants and kick
some sausage rolls to support his goal kicking midfield. The
wide spaces at Sportscover Arena have suited the Oaks more
so than the Bullnats this year. I think the Oaks will be suited
by the dewy conditions and the ground, I have them getting
over the line by 17 points.
Key Pl a ye rs: Oa kl e i gh: Jetta, Hunt, Scott, Pappon.

UHS / F l e m v St Be rna rds
Thi s Sea son: Pl a ye d 2: UHS 0 / St Bernards 2.
The Snow dogs have had the upper hand on both occasions
here. UHS in my opinion have been a more consistent side all
year and deserve their finals spot. If UHS can keep Tom
Sullivan quiet they may go close to doing enough to win with
their midfield’s strong defensive pressure which has proved
the difference in a number of close matches. On the other
hand UHS will have to rely on “Plugger” Sullivan to keep
Henry quiet whose 32 goals have been against some handy
opposition. Although they haven’t beaten them I believe that
UHS’s midfield is superior to St Bernards and for mine UHS
will get the chocolates by 8 points.
Key Pl a ye rs: UHS/Flem: Everist, Moore, Coombe, Free
St Be rnards: T. Sullivan, Overman, L. Sullivan, Kavanagh
It is getting close to that time of the year for the U18 Team of
the year side to be announced. Please send through any
nominations to me.

Justin Waldron (U19 South 1 & 2)
U19 Pre mi e r
Welcome to the finals. Congrats to De La Salle (Blues) on
winning yet another minor premiership and to Old Xavs,
Old Scotch and Uni Blues who also join them in post
season. Before we have a look at this weeks Semi’s a
quick look back at round 18.
Uni Blacks traveled to Bulleen Road to meet Old Trinity in
their last Premier engagement before returning to North
1 and made life difficult for an under manned OT outfit.
After a lack luster first half Blacks fired into life in the 3rd
quarter and then ran away with it to record a solid 10
goal win just to help those end of season drinks taste
slightly better. Tommy Cerini was at his best for The T’s
while for Uni Blacks Tyran Bell and Shane McNamara got
amongst the votes.
An even first quarter in the match between Old Scotch
and Beaumaris kept their rivalry bubbling along but The
Shark’s resistance waned in the second as The Cards
slotted through 5 goals 8 to Beauy’s solitary point in the
second stanza. Contrasting fortunes in the third as it was
the Scotchies midfield who went to sleep allowing The
Baysiders back into the contest with a big quarter
however Old Scotch were kicking to the scoring end in
the last and ran out comfortable 6 goal winners. Beauy
can be proud of their efforts finishing 5th in their first
season in the top flight while the welcome return to form
of Old Scotch is just what the doctor ordered as they look
to a 1st Semi Final against Uni Blues.
Finals contenders Old Xavarians squared the 2009 ledger
against Uni Blues in their clash at Parkville. The contest
was on a knife edge with The Bluebaggers only 3 points
down late in third term but Xavs with Hamish Buckley in
fine form powered away to win this battle by an
impressive 6 goals. Better players on the day included
Woods, Cross and Davies in Black and Red while in Black
and Blue Vickers-Willis, Robertson and Llewyn Butler got
amongst it.
St Bedes Mentone Tigers visited Rupertswood who were
playing for their Premier lives and The Woodsman didn’t
disappoint rolling The Beders by 10 goals. Adam Jones
(SBMT) capped off a stellar season with another eye
catching performance although it was Rupo’s Lachlan
McKenna who proved to be the difference smashing in 6
goals on his way to a best on performance that
confirmed 2010’s Premier sides will be making the trek
out to Sunbury again.
It couldn’t have got much worse for The Eagles, coming
up against our rampant ladder leaders and needing to
beat them by a huge margin to maintain their Premier
status things got ugly early and didn’t improve through
V
THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2009
out the day. De La Blues capped
off the home and away season
with a 20 goal drubbing of
Marcellin who no doubt will
regroup and be a force in South 1.

1st Se mi F ina l – Ol d Scotch vs
Uni Bl ue s
When these two sides met a few
weeks ago it was Uni Blues who
took the chockies however my gut
instinct is the OS coaching staff
may have been reluctant to show
their hand. That said though Uni
Blues have been flying down the
home strait only to come up short
against the highly rated Dinomites. Ash Lim and the OS
rucks hold the key for mine, if they get on top early Uni
Blues will pay however The Bluebaggers have some guns
of their own and no doubt the names Townley, Nice and
McClure will be keeping Doddy up late Friday night. Old
Scotch by 2 goals.

Considering Retirement
2nd Semi Final – Old Xavarians vs De La Salle (Blues)
Will this be the Muller vs Noonan show or the Murphy vs
Buckley show. Read either of the team sheets and you
can’t help but be impressed with the talent that will run
around in this game. De La Salle are an awesome unit
and will be hard to top however if anyone can pick a way
through the star studded midfield and half back line it’s
Dino and his boys. Let’s hope the Sandy Doctor can stay
away until Sunday night as this will be a cracker. De La
by 3 goals.
U19 North 1 a nd 2
DAMO’ S BALL
Round 18 Re vi e w - North 1
My predictions last week were spot on as North 1 gets
set for a massive week of finals.
Old Carey season has finished on a high, with a massive
win over Old Camberwell to secure 4th spot. The top
team faulted in their first loss of the season, as Old Carey
came back from a first quarter deficit. B. Elzarka was
superb in the finals like clash.
St Bernards smashed Banyule Viewbank, but without any
incentive for the effort, narrowly missing out on the four
due to Old Carey’s win. Cooper and Gleeson kicked 7
goals each in their last match for ’09.
Fitzroy knocked off Manningham comfortably to secure
3rd spot. D. Di Bartolomeo starred in his last match for
49
continued page 50
from page 49
the year, whilst W. Johnson has peaked at the right time
for the Roys.
Old Essendon walked away 59 point winners over
Bulleen Temp, as they look forward to their clash with
Old Camberwell. The Drysdales and Ravanello were
superb for the Bombers.
week to now finding themselves out of this seasons
finals series after the Melburnians defeated the Monders
by 21 points. P. May and A. Armstrong were the real
danger men for the burners as they aided there side to
another win and some good form heading into the
finals.
Round 18 Re vi e w - North 2
Aquinas won their last match of the year over La Trobe
by 15 points infront of a home crowd. Aver, North 2’s star
goal kicker of 2008, kicked 5 in his first game for the 19s
this season after a productive year in the seniors.
Ivanhoe finished Old Xav’s late run, and forced
themselves into the 4 in the last round of the home and
away season, knocking them off by 7 goals. C.
Petricevich was instrumental for the Hoes, booting 6
majors, the key if Ivanhoe can knock off Old Westborne
next week.
Old Geelong knocked off bottom side Rupertswood to
guarantee form into the finals. Kent, Officer and Price
booted 17 between them in a demolition down in
Sunbury. Swallow was the best in the last game for
Rupie.
Old Westborne secured 3rd spot and bumped Emmaus
out of the 4 in their final game, victors by 35 points. A 5
goal to none last quarter snatched the heart out of the St
Leos faithful, Turner again turning on a show through the
midfield.
And Therry has comfortably matched Fitzroy, beating the
Roys by 104 points. Will Dean was a vital contributor
with 6 majors, McMahon booted 5, and Cannatelli
dominated around the stoppages.
I will keep this one short as De La Salle had a training
run against Mazenod this week getting up by just the 31
goals. A. Zaia was best afield after he booted a lazy 8
goals. The battle was won this week by the Fielders who
defeated Old Haileybury by 22 points. Best afield for the
Fielders was R. Lewis.
We e k 1 fi na l s TIPS - North 1
Can’t go past Old Carey, even though Fitzroy was my
preseason premiership tip. It will be a cracker of a match,
but OC by 13 points.
Old Camberwell are down and Old Essendon are up. Will
Old Camberwell bounce back? I close my eyes…OEG to
upset by 2 points.
Collegians who finished the year off so well would leave
season 09 disappointed after an 11 goals drubbing by
the Brighters this week. T. Tickell and J. Portelli both
booted 4 sausage rolls but it was A. Dewar who was
named best on ground.
Be ntl e i gh vs. Old Me ntoni a ns: Can the Mentonians stop
big bustling B. Morrison as he seems the real problem
for the Tonners this week. This one could go either way
in my opinion even though Bentleigh have been in some
sensational form of late, I believe the Tonners may gain
some old team members back and could well cause an
upset. I will play it safe this week and tip Bentleigh by 6
goals but keep an eye on this one because there could be
an upset on the cards.

Pre vi e w:
Ol d Me l burni a ns vs. Old Bri ghton: Hard to go past the
ladder leaders heading into the 1st week of the finals but
I am going to tip the underdogs this week. Old Brighton
have hit their straps at the right time this season and I
believe the momentum is with them and feel they will
clinche this one in a nail bitter. Old Brighton by 2 goals.
De La Sa l l e vs. St Ke vi ns: Terrific effort from De La to
host a 2nd side in the under 19's competition and make
the 4. They have been up against the odds all year and I
am not going to jump off the band wagon now. De La by
5 goals in a very tough contest.
South 1
Re vi e w:
One word this week people, FINALS!!! You little Rippa.
Kick things off this week with two teams that may meet
again come finals time as the Hampton Rovers defeated
the Mentonians by 7 points. J. Sperring was best for the
home side and for the away team it was E. Macquire
who battled his guts out all day long.
We e k 1 fi na l s - North 2
Can’t go past Old Westborne, with recent form over
Therry and Emmaus in their last 2 games, should be too
strong for Ivanhoe, by 30 points.
Therry to continue the hoodoo over Old Geelong and
sneak narrow victory, by a goal.
Ajax find themselves in all sorts a week before the finals
as they copped a belting this week at the hands of a
rampaging Bentleigh who defeated the Jackers by 4
goals. B. Morrison booted 6 and looks to be Bentleighs
real weapon in this years finals series.
U19 South 1 a nd 2
Re vie w:
Yes I’ve been sniffing for that finals action for some time
now and you little Beauty!! It is here!! We have waited 18
long rounds but finally we are there. More on that
shortly. Ormond will begin my review this week as they
have fallen from grace after being 2nd on the ladder last
In other matches it was Monash defeating the Pirates by
71 points as L.Waldron and D.Hood put on a clinic for
the home side. Prahran finished their season off with a
thrilling win over Beauy and Parkdale finished their
season off in style with a whopping 129 point win over
MHSOB. For the Vultures it was R. Irvine who stole the
show.
50
Pre vi e w:
Hampton Rove rs vs. Aj ax: Ajax in big trouble this week
as the Rovers are a ball of momentum and Ajax are a
ticking time bomb ready to self destruct. It will be an
almighty upset if the Jackers were able to get up but I
can't see it happening. Rovers will triumph by a
comfortable 7 goals.

CLUB XVIII SECTION
by Norm Nugent
R E V I E W O F 2 0 0 9 GR A ND F I NA L S
S e c ti o n 1
Collegians have won their first Section 1
Premiership. This fact and the final score line, giving
the “Lions” victory by sixty five points will be
recorded in V.A.F.A. annals. What won’t be as easily
recalled will be the unprecedented last quarter surge
produced by Collegians to turn a three quarter time
deficit of two points into the huge win. Twelve goals
in a quarter is not a common football event… much
less so twelve goals kicked in seventeen minute’s
playing time (plus one kicked by Old Xaverians)
For the first three quarters the game was a closely
contested and low scoring one with neither
Collegians nor Old Xaverians 2 able to breakaway
from the other’s persistent pressure. Then came the
deluge!
Best for Collegians included; Luke Schnoknecht, who
was awarded the King / Landrigan Medal for being
named “Best on the Ground”, twin co – captains
Matt. and Simon Day (4 goals), Blair McDonough,
who dominated in the mid field, and left footed
flanker, Josh. Heard, who kicked three goals. Naming
these players could be considered unfair to so many
others who contributed to Collegians victory.
Old Xaverians, who led the competition for most of
the season, were overrun and could find no answer
to Collegians last quarter heroics. Their better
players included; Lynch, Ockleshaw, Lukatis and
Morton.
Congratulations go to Collegians, to Jason Storer
(Prahran) who won the competition Best and Fairest
award for the third time and to Edward Cooper (Old
Melburnians), who was the leading goal kicker in
Section 1.
58
S e c ti o n 2
Old Brighton culminated
a seven game winning
streak with winning the
Premiership by thirteen points over Marcellin. Like
the phoenix, Old Brighton surged from the ashes of
despair to win over minor premiers, University
Blacks, in Round 12 and under the tutelage of
rejuvenated Coach, Marcus Barber the players have
carried all before them since that July day.
The wind played a big part in deciding the outcome
of this game. Old Brighton started with its aid and led
by twenty one points at the first change. Marcellin
utilized the wind but only led by a point at half time.
Old Brighton then were able to build a twenty one
point lead by the last change.
The fourth quarter saw Old Brighton mount many
attacks to the Glen Huntly Road end only for
Marcellin defenders to repel them all. At the other
end and in the mid field the superior aerial strength
of Old Brighton came into force as they defended
stoutly and held Marcellin to a solitary goal, which
meant Old Brighton won by thirteen points.
Significantly Marcellin’s two scoring shots at the
Glen Huntly Road end in the first quarter were the
only scores there for the game.
Congratulations go to Old Brighton and to Karl
Sheehan, who was adjudged “Best on the Ground”.
Other good players for the Premiers were: Matthew
Jackson, Ewert and Alcock.
Marcellin, who were unable to reproduce the form
which qualified them for the Grand Final, have
enjoyed a successful season in the higher grade.
Their better players included; Leigh Hanson, Coach,
Dustin Cracknell, veteran Garry Petroff (the leading
goal kicker in Section 2) and the Matthews Brothers.
Congratulations were given to Monash Blues
ruckman, Keith Perry who won the Best and Fairest
Award in Section 2.
V
THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2009
N or th
Congratulations go to Old Essendon, who set up
their Premiership win over Old Ivanhoe with a
dominant opening quarter, when they kicked six
unanswered goals. Old Ivanhoe were never able to
make up this deficit and by the game’s end they had
barely passed the Old Essendon quarter time score
Inaccuracy in the second quarter did not help Old
Ivanhoe’s chances as they trailed by twenty points at
half time. Aided by the increasing wind intensity Old
Essendon went further ahead in the third quarter and
led by thirty six points at the last change. The last
quarter saw old Ivanhoe score two goals but they
conceded one to their opponents at the Glenhuntly
Road end which virtually halted the Ivanhoe advance
before Old Essendon ran out twenty seven point
winners.
Best for the Premiers included: John Hughes, who
was adjudged as “Best on the Ground”, Captain Tim.
Campbell and Jeremy Williamson.
For Old Ivanhoe Tieman, Delaney, Paine and Golden
were best.
Each of these teams deserves commendation for
qualifying for the Grand Final in its comeback
season.
Congratulations go to Luca Guerra (Old Carey) who
won the Section goal kicking.
Elmi Amarch, (Therry Penola), Matthew Shanks
(Whitefriars) and Nicholas Everett (Old Carey) tied
for the section Best and fairest award.
Congratulations go to all three.
So uth
Old Melburnians again defeated Ormond for the
third time in three weeks. In the Grand Final their
winning margin was reduced to eighty seven
points. Ormond started brightly and against all
expectations led by three points at quarter time.
Unfortunately their players could not sustain the
momentum and Old Melburnians took control and
increased their margin as the game progressed.
Ormond did not score in the last quarter, which
aided the Melburnian’s margin.
Best for Old Melburnians included: William Harris,
who in addition to being judged “Best on the
Ground” also tied for the Section Best and Fairest
award with David Logan from Old Scotch. Ray (5
goals), Wright and Phillips also played well.
For Ormond the consistent, Brown, Broadbent,
Calvert and Holman were again prominent
Congratulations to Old Melburnians who lost only
once for the season and to Ormond who have been
finalists in their first two seasons in the section.
Scott Saunders (Caulfield Grammarians) won the
Section goal kicking. Congratulations go to him
and to William Harris and David Logan for their
award.
My thanks goes to my loyal band of
correspondents, whose weekly reports greatly help
with the writing of this column. I am grateful to our
editor Jess. whose tolerance of script errors and
tardiness has been boundless. Printer, Gary Sparke
has coped with my verbosity with a minimum of
complaint. Thanks Gary, I do hear you and do try to
meet your requirements! Finally as I lay down my
pen, thanks to you my readers, without you there
would be no need to write. … Until 2010 …
