VAFA MAJOR SPONSO R

Footy is a tough game . We all know it but som ]:in;~s ~~~~~need to be reminded how bruising it can be and thenews of 22-year-old Geelong footballer Tom Lonerganlosing his kidney during the week certainly does that .The sickening accident is on the back of a discussionabout how physically demanding the game is for 17 and18-year-olds who are involved in their first AFL or VFLseason .Basically, in their first year out from the TAC cup, under18 boys are pitted ,'nst men and find themselves upagainst guys who hr ie been in the AFL system for years,100-plus gamers, pro f essional athletes, who are bigballs of muscle .It is a dangerous combination and former Adelaidepremiership captain Mark 6ickiey recently said thesituation was alarming and needed to be changed .There will always be some young talent that can step upto AFL pace immediately and star in their first seasonbut these players are the exception .Bickley pointed out that several of this year's brightestlights had not been able to complete the season becauseof injury.The rest of the players are thrown into the VFL but againthey find themselves against AFL reserve players, ex-AFL players and seasoned footballers .It is still not an ideal situation .There was a mental side to the equation as well, Bickleysaid, and AFL clubs were daunting places for youngstersno matter how talented they were .The VAFA believes it can provide a sensible bridge forthese young guns from the TAC Cup to walk across intoAFL, following the footsteps of Melbourne star JamesMcDonald and St . Kilda veteran Andrew Thompson .This is the smart road .Our competition provides a mix of different age grou ,n s,ex-AFL players and some of the best amateur football I- sin the land .And because it is such a big competition, youngVictorian players will able to find a local club which isconvenient, an important consideration for the player ifhe is studying or doesn't drive .VAFA CEO Michael Sholly said the amateurs intended tocontact all the TAC Cup clubs in a plan that wor= ld ----. ... .. ... .. ... ... .. ... .. .. ... ... ... .. .. ... .. ... .. .. 6 3--6A

hLl ;~efully net some of the best young stars to the

competition .The aim is to provide asafe, alternate path forthese young players t otravel down, allowing them to age and develop ratherthan been cast to the wolves .He said the VAFA also provided great experiences foryoung players and they could play U19 representativegames, interstate games and even a youth tour ofI reland .The idea is simply to let the youngsters maturephysically and mentally and provide them with some lifeexperiences before they are released to the AFL .Shelly said the other exciting news for the VAFA wascrowd attendances in recent weeks .He said the numbers that had been reported toheadquarters were incredible, not only due to the earlyconclusion of Club XVIII and school competition, butperhaps a potential disenchantment with the AFL brand .AFL has certainly had its problems in recent weeks, fromits fixture, to broadcasting, injuries and the footballitself, but as the amateurs head into the finals it iscertainly all systems go .It should be a fascinating few weeks ahead .Congratulations to the Club XVIII premiers and goodluck to all the teams playing finals football this weekend .As for A and B-sections, what an incredible year and thattop of the table clash between Collegians and OldBrighton today should be a beauty .

And then there t,re, well, thre eYou know, sometimes you can catch Old Xavs on an off day .But when the stakes are high, the sun is shining and the crowdis out, its time to say your prayers. You can add and when theopposition is De La" to that equation as well . The minute the yran out on Saturday, you could tell the visitors were primed .The game pretty much followed suit, with Xavs always keepingDe La at an arm's length, despite a plucky performance fromthe home side, who snuck within a couple of goals at onestage . A lethal Tim Ockleshaw didn't help De La's cause, nordid the move of Damien Lynch (6) up forward . I really liked thegame of Chris Santalucia as well .De La had everything to play for and reflected this at theselection table, bringing back Jeremy La Ragy from injury andLuke Seeger from a broken leg, which most people hadassumed would sideline him until season '07 . Players toimpress included Aaron Shields, who is really hard at it, DavidSpithill, the best ruckman De La have had for years and JeffMorel, who always seems to bob up in crunch games. Maybeadd a key forward and a hard-nosed midfielder into next year'sline up and they will be one hell of a side . But full credit toXavs, who looked very polished .Speaking of the need for key forwards, Haileybury haveacquired a pretty handy one in the form of Stewart Loewe, amore than adequate replacement for the bung hipped BrettO'Farrell . Three goals and a stack of marks was a pretty handyreturn for a bloke his age as the Badlanders had the Cardinalson toast . Some equally impressive names in Heath Hopwood,Carl Steinfort and Kynan Ford were all prominent (and theBloods went in without Paul Corrigan, who missed with workcommitments) . It really is hard to know what to make ofScotch but they look right off the pace when stacked upalongside the other three likely finalists . Sam Troon was theirbest .The other games were a bit less significant in the scheme ofthings but heralded some great individual performances .Callan Potter slotted a cool seven against Marcellin (who, onceagain, were competitive but lost concentration after half time) .Another ripping game by Gary McIntyre down back for the'Pitters. Andy Cultrera's stellar season continued as he mauledthe hapless OMs out at Bulleen. You'd have to say he is thecompetition's premier player in '06 but maybe his tendency togive a bit of lip may cost him a much-deserved Woodrow . AndUni made mincemeat of my upset selection, easily seeing offIvanhoe at Parkville . Ivanhoe's rotten luck with injurycontinued with State players James Hope and Stewed Lowboth sitting out . Marcus Toovey bobbed up with a very classyseven but George De Crespigny was in similarly hot form atthe other end for Uni and their midfield ran riot .

The ScenarioI didn't pass a maths testafter Grade 4 at school soreally struggle with thissort of stuff but this i spretty much th esituation . . . . .If De La are to sneak into fourth, they need to beat Uni Bluesand hope Marcellin roll Scotch . They'll also sneak in if theybeat Uni by 227 goals, a tad unlikel yHaileybury will get the double chance . So should Uni. If thingsaccording to the script (as if, it's the Amateurs)! we'll have theexact same finals line-up as last yea rWell wasn't that a learned summation of things? Sorry, mybrain just doesn't function this way.

But Watch Out . . .You see, it isn't as simple as it looks . Fact is that Trinity haveprobably the best record of any A Section side against OldXavs . They always beat them in the ruck and Xavs havedifficulty matching up on Cultrera.The Badlanders are no certainties against Bernards, who aresteaming home, have nothing to lose and also have a very

good record against the Bloods . No surprise at all to see them

get up .

Marcellin aren't that bad! And for a team in fourth spot, Scotchare in abysmal form . You just never know . . . .De La are a pretty handy team themselves and despite a dismalrecord against the Blues, showed enough last week to suggestit's not out of their grasp .

The Cop OutBut I'm a wuss, mainly because I can't bear the fact of anotheryear on the bottom of the tipping ladder. So let's tip Uni overDe La, Xavs over Trinity (if it wasn't at Sportscover I would beless emphatic) Haileybury over Bernards & Ivanhoe in thedead rubber against OMs. And in the only upset, let's go forMarcellin over Scotch at Camberwell .

1s.1:r3.7 .S.. O1V1a&OLD XAVERIANS congratulate TRAVIS RUYG on 50 games2005 saw an A Grade Premiership and selection theVictorian State Team - Well done Travis from all at the club .St.Bernraris congratulate both Gary McIntyre and JoshM adden on 50 games last week. Gary is having a great yearplaying mostly in defence whilst Josh is already an U/19premiership player, state rep and Senior B&F winner in 05 .Well Done G-LOVE and JOSHY.The exuberant and exhilarating Michael Duggan plays his150th game for DLS against Uni Blues this week .With superb application Michael has managed to improvehis game every season as evidenced by his equal 3rd ClubChampion in 2004, exceeded by his 3 way tie for ClubChampion in 2005. He is also in his 2nd year at Club VC .Noted for his "understated" reaction to kicking a goal,Michael's play is inspirational . Well done Dugg oUni v ersity Blues congratulate M ichael Kordick and AndreySolly on 100 Senior games. Michael has developed into oneof the toughest midfielders in the competition . His ability tokeep his feet and provide others with first use is a key to thesuccess of Blues teams over the past years. Andrew is insome of the best form of his career. Super quick, superskillfull and very evasive . Can play wing, down back as astopper and up forward as a very dangerous option . Bothare integral members of the club on and off the field, Welldone 'Special K' and 'Sol Brother' .OLD HAILEYBURIANS' congratulate popular Reserves ViceCaptain Luke Pitcher on his 100th game for the club todayagainst St Bernards . Under 19 V-C 2001, Ressies 2005/06and, during a prolonged injury earlier this year, filled in withoff-field jobs is testimony to Luke's commitment to theBloods . Well done 'Pitch' .

& THE AMATEUP, FOOTBALLER 2006 7

Even the best laid plans can go awry. )'~ ld so :,e come toRound 18 with a couple of live games to -'acide the finalistsand the demotes what a way to finish a season .

REVIEWOld Brighton just had that touch of class when it mattered mostthat kept them in front all day against a brave and competitiveBlacks side who would be ruing a couple of easy goals givenaway from point kick ins. Josh Dickerson played a great gameto keep Savige quiet. Pat Phelan was terrific, the Edge's weresplendid, Mr Magic was irresistible and Nick Perry did somepretty handy inconspicuous work . Blacks defenders DanCostello, Hugh Whitehead and Tom Purcell all played really wellwhile Like O'Connell was his oallant self .Beaumaris continue to disappoint their supporters against anMHSOB side who ran all day and won the hard ball to scoretheir 5th straight win to really finish their season in style . StuMcCully was best for the High receiving good support fromSimon Anderson, Andrew Villani, Josh Richmond,MatthewHamilton-Ho and Nick Orchard. The Sharks who mighthave finished closer but for some poor kicking were wellserved by Sean Coote and Dougie Ensor down back with LukeMcNicholas and Brayden Haynes battling hard on the ball.OEG are the classic Jekyll and Hyde sort of out it capable ofbeating and losing to anyone, hence it took them well into thelast quarter to shake off a Mazenod side who really gave it theirall in their last chance for survival. The Glimmer Twins Flahertyand Forrest were very dangerous up forward for the Bombers,while Whopper Teal and the studious McPherson also weregood. Byron Bonner, David Nisbet and Mark Appolonia with 5goals all helped the Nodders cause .To use that old football parlance we are just taking it one weekat a time and that is what Stevie Wright told me last SaturdayNight as he started his preparation for the big game againstCollegians . The situation a win would keep them alive a lossand they were doomed. A 4 goal to zip second quarter set theball rolling for the Fields as they took control of the game andjust did not allow the Lions to get a look in . Simon Vdidja; -- inand under was an inspiration to his side, while Mark Liddelland Nick Tassell also contributed greatly to the cause .Collegians were pleased with their rucks of Marty Williams andJames Jorgensen, with Nick Harrison and Grant Rowstonfinding plenty of the ball .SKOB were disappointing against a desperate Whitefriars whowere on their last chance and took it . The visitors did all thehard running early but couldn't put the Friars away, and givena sniff the home side took it and ran with it. Bad kicking in thethird quarter where they sprayed it like cheap fertiliser also nothelping SKOB'S cause .Lenny Mulgrew found his niche on the wing and played a grea t

gar as did BOS M,°-uiredown back .

The first of three possibl etest matches takes place at South Road today as Old Brightonwelcome Collegians to their humble abode . What do theCoaches do??? - play ducks an ddrakes and rest a few who are carrying little niggles or playthem all and go out and try and gain the ascendancy over theiropponent. Bragging rights and top spot on the ladder also atthe end of the line at 4.30. Collegians need to find some formwhile the Tonners are in good form and will win .Melbourne High would want to finish their season off at homewith a win and will certainly be in the game for a long periodof time but in all reality the Bombers must win so they tacklenext week with their confidence in tact and I'm pretty sure thatthat is what will happen .Righetti Oval makes a comeback to B Section this week as StKevins welcome Mazenod in this absolute crunch game . Quiteironic that Dave Murray's last game as Coach of St Kevin's isagainst his old club . Well done Dave you have given SKOBS agreat 3 years and I'm sure the importance of today will not belost on anyone at the club . Perhaps with a touch of Garlick tospice up the recipe I feel the SKOBBERS will get the job doneand remain in B Section .I also think that Whitefriars can and will beat Beaumaris atShark Park but it will be to no avail as the result some 15kilometres away will unfortunately consign them to hopefullyonly a year in C Section . My tipping the Friars is based purelyand simply on the fact that they must win .And so to the Univers4'y where a simple equation "win" andyou are "in" confronts both sides . The Fields have collected a

Not surprisingly, the lads from Hampton Moverswere crestfallen after they fell to Fitzroy Reds on theweekend in bright sunny conditions . Meanwhile,down the road at Alec Gillon Oval, the Combine wereall smiles as they took care of Monash and arrestedtheir slide to secure a ticket for C section in 2007 . Itis always a difficult round when teams futures lie inthe balance until the last few minutes, but supportersand players alike are to be commended for themanner in which they handled themselves .

No quarter has been given, and none expected in thisextremely tight year of footy. For Old Paradians andHampton Rovers, we must bid a fond farewell buthope that they return again as soon as possible. Bothsides have proud histories, with good juniorprograms so there's little doubt they will bedetermined to make this an aberration only. For theNOBSPC crew, it was bound to be a Mad Monday asthey had occupied one the bottom two slots for 10 ofthe 17 previous weeks!! Still they pulled out the winwhen it counted, and capitalised on Monash's formtailing off when finals were out of the question .

In the battle for the finals, Parkdale Vultures tookcare of business at Gerry Green Reserve, dispatchingOld Paradians by three quarter time and ensuringthat only an Old Camberwell upset over AJAX couldkeep them out this season . Given last year had seenthe premiers fall to The OC to keep the Vultures out,it was as if some good karma came back to Parkdale,with news of the Jackas' 4 goal win drifting throughthe airwaves at 5pm . The Vultures had kept theirseason alive, but at what price? Word is that a coupleof key players may have suffered injuries in theprocess, and Parkdale may need to cover theirabsences in the 1st semi . So, without further ado,let's rip into the preview as September rolls on . . . . .

2nd semi fina l

St Bedes M entone Tigers -v-AJA X

To the winner go the spoils and in this match it willbe the critical week's rest before the Big Day and thejoy of punching a ticket to B section in 2007 .

tI': Jiously, ven theTigers have gonethrough the seaso

n undefeated, theydeserve favoritismand it's hard to seewhere the Jackas will assert their authority, it isalmost impossible to fault the Tigers' form as theyhave matchwinners all over the park .

The key to AJAX giving it a shake will be theircohesiveness as a unit and their attack on the ballfrom the beginning . Their strength is rimarily onball but, with Rapaport in rare `nrm ~_ ~r! "3om &Rosen to return, they certainly have .power toworry the favorites . It really comes dc n to depthand, whilst both sides' gun players are evenlymatched, the Tigers have more key position optionsand greater depth . Frankly, the performance of thelast 6 players chosen will probably determine theoutcome here .

have a good shot, but that's about the bestconditions they could hope for. We all know thewinter just passed has been very dry, and I can't seeit changing this week . With a fair amount ofconfience, its the Tigers by 31 points .

1st semi fina l

Ormond -v- Parkdale Vulture s

Here's another match which looks reasonablystraightforward with most expecting Parkdale todrop out at the first hurdle . Ormond have been prettyconsistent throughout the season and have been inthe top four for pretty much the entire season . I haveevery reason to expect the likes of Miller. McConvilleand Keleher will relish the Sandy deck whilst TonyMacGeorge knows every single blade of grass atTrevor Barker Oval too!!! Word is Paul Sullivan, afterripping out another BOG, will go into this gameunder an injury cloud . Whilst not fatal, his brilliantform has been one of the major reasons for theVultures' soaring into September . I expect him toplay, but his influence could be limited .

Ormond have the benefit of several gun forwards inChishom, Russell and even Beckett to provideavenues to goal . Still Parkdale have one Mr Rowleyin great nick at the other end, but have to find othersif Sullivan can't produce . Ormond have managed towin most of the close ones, and I reckon this onecould go right down to the wire, with a Mendervictory by 8 points .

At the bottom end of the table,Prahran had a handsome 33point win over Old Mentonians . With more to play for, the TwoBlues jumped out to a big lead early, and although thePanthers were the better team on the scoreboard in the secondhalf, it was too late for OM to make any significant impact .Michael Scicluna starred for the home side in the backline,while Anthony Palmer made the most of his 150th game forthe Panthers.This result, coupled with a 68 point thrashing by Old Geelongat Como Park, consigned St. Leo's Emmaus to D2 football forthe 2007 season . Matt. Wilson and Lachie Teague impressedfor the home side, while Nic Casboult and Colby O'Brien onceagain starred for the Oggers .Top and bottom spots were already locked in and top side OldCarey prevailed over a young Banyule combination to win by105 points at R J Brockwell Oval . A useful tune up for theminor premiers saw Tim Angus bag seven, Pete Tiras kick five,Tow Howgate and Ryan Mullins do well in midfield, Stu Jessupimpress down back, and Pete Unkles continue his strong formin the ruck.At Domeney Reserve, a 69 point win to Yarra Valley Old Boysover Therry Penola, coupled with results elsewhere, ensuredthe Bushrangers of D1 finals football . The Lions can beencouraged by the performances of youngsters Matt Reynoldsand Jarrod Hanlon as they look to keep their start of- and endof season form going throughout the middle of the season in2007 .At Ted Ajani Reserve . Rupertswood scored a massive 86 pointwin over home side Bulleen Templestowe, sending theBuliants tumbling from second spot to fifth spot and out of thefinals in the process, allowing Rupo to claim fourth spot andto fight another day .

F' ' - AL PREVIEWForm side Yarra Valley Old Boys square up to early seasonhotshots Rupertswood at St. Bernard's College this Saturday .The Bushrangers were not given much hope at the start of thisseason and a 1-4 start seemed to confirm that wisdom .However, they had been competitive in all their match at thatpoint, which should've hinted at the potential for greater thingsto come, which an 11-2 record for the rest of the season istestament to. By contrast, Rupo won their first six matches,and were topping the table at that stage . Although they havebeen 'only' 6-6 since then, I would think they would besatisfied with a 12-6 record for their first year playing at thislevel .Obviously the marquee duel here has to be that of Valley keyforward James Keem against Rupo's David Collins . It will beinteresting to see if the Bushies will persist in trying to playthrough Keem if Collins gets on top early, or if they'll try tonegate Collins' influence by playing around him instead.Rupo's Tom West and Valley" s Ashley Drew are also sure tocross paths many times during the course of the game, andtheir impact is sure to also be a factor come full time .

Only one team can winhere, and although Rupohave done well to salvage afinals spot, theBushrangers have themomentum, and ergo anair of imprenentrebleconfidence that's hard to beat at finals time . Yarra Valley formine .

SECOND SEMI FINAL PREVIEWJunction Oval will be more like Planet of the APS on Saturdaywhen Old Carey take on Old Geelong . The Panthers have beenthe most consistent team in D1 this season, and are worthyminor premiers . The Oggers did suffer a case of the wobblesfor a while back around the three quarter season stage, buthave recovered well to take the other double chance position .I predict that Al Parton will start forward, in the early stages atleast anyway, by either Ai Munro or Steve Lansdell . NicCasboult and Colby O'Brien have the potential to wreak havocin the Oggers forward line, but the likes of Chris Battle and StuJessop will ensure things won't be one way traffic .Luke Maslin has been fantastic for the Panthers since his earlyseason arrival from Northern Bullants and combines well withCollins to provide as good a one-two midfield punch as anyteam at this level, but look for Bayles to bring his own brandof magic to the table for the Hoops .Both teams have strong claims as to why they should win, andit was only three weeks ago that the Oggers scored a

St Be rn ard's utility Josh (:'adden is the nominee for the Club Warehouse Rising Star Nomination for Round 18 afteranother sterling performance against Old Melburnians last Saturday .

Josh has had a stellar season averaging over 30 possessions per game . This is backing up from winning the clubbest and fairest in his debut season last year .

Josh stands at 6'4" in the old measurement yet has the ability to cover ground with ease . His ability to read the play,take big grabs and hit the ground running sets him apart from other players in the competition .

Josh has played rep footy for the under 23's in both seasons and is sure to be a prominent player in the VAFA as heendeavours to bring St Bernard's back into the four and in the hunt for a premiership in the next couple of seasons .

Let the business end of the season begin . Well Done toPeninsula, Oakleigh, Salesian and Aquinas for making thefinals, and good luck during the finals series, To IvanhoeAssumption and La Trobe Uni, good luck in D3 nextseason .

Finals is a word that has haunted Peninsula in the past .On more than one occasion the Pirates have been thebest team throughout the year, and lost form once thefinals has begun . I think it might be different this yearthough . Peninsula had only their second loss of the yearlast Saturday going down to Aquinas by a point . Acouple of players may have been rested, however theboys from Mt Eliza have been the form team of thecompetition all year and certainly go in as favouritestoday. Oakleigh have been competitive against themboth times during the year, but Peninsula have got thefour points on both occasions . No doubt that ShaunPayze is the key for the Pirates . If he kicks five or moregoals then Peninsula win . Key players for the Krushersare Trevor Bromley and Shane Kitts . Bromley is knownfor performing in the big games, so I expect a big gamefrom him . Peninsula by 13 points .

This one is a flip of the coin job . Some may say thatAquinas go in with the better form having knockeo offPeninsula last Saturday, but one has to remember thatthere are many experienced heads running around forSalesian . Mick Hazell is a seasoned performer and I expecthim to turn it on today. Throw in impressive youngstersHarmit Singh and Ivan Bobetic and Salesian certainly hav e

enough talent to win . Aquinas were ultra impressiveagainst Peninsula. Trent Harkin had his best game of theseason and Michael Glassborow continues to impress atCentre Half Forward . Glassborow is a tough player tomatchup on, and provides his team with a great avenuetowards goal . Salesian by 2 points .

Ressies Tip sSalesian to knock off Peninsula by 12 points and Aquinasto defeat La Trobe by 3 points .

In the other Round 18 matches last Saturday, IvanhoeAssumption knocked off La Trobe by 11 points but it wasnot enough to keep them in D2 next year . The Hoe's and LaTrobe were relegated . There was a big party at ThomasCarroll Reserve on Saturday night, with the Joc's knockingoff Werribee and staying up in D2 for 2007.Congratulations to St John's, and good luck next season.Glen Eire went down to Oakleigh by 13 points, showinghow much the Saints have improved since the start of theseason . Williamstown lost by 23 points at Salesian but arestill in 02 for 2007 . The relegation situation looked grim forthem during the year, so a good effort by the boys from theWestern suburbs .All match reports, milestones, social events, 02 team ofthe year nominations please email tojonathan,healg@hotmaii .com by 5 :00 pm M onday .

Aquinas OCFC - congratulate John Jess on playing 150games for the club against Salesian this weekend . Johnstarted his career with the Bloods in 1998 in the Under 19'sand co-captained them in 99 .

- What's that Smell ?The weather's warming up, buds of new growth areappearing on the pruned trees and the scent offreshly cut grass fills the air. That smell that footballfollowers identify at this time of the year is the smellof finals . Yes, finals fever hits the VAFA this weekendwith Semi-Finals in all sections except for A and B .This year's finals series promises to be one of themost hotly contested in recent times with mostsections not having a clear cut favourite . Provided theweather stays fine, bumper crowds are expected atfinals venues, ensuring a fantastic atmosphere towatch the best local footy in Melbourne .

® Club `i na lsSe t R .c

Speaking of bumper crowds, a record number ofpeople turned up to watch the Club XVIII finals heldlast weekend . The VAFA recorded nearly 1000 morepeople watching the action on last year's figures andthe highest gate takings since Club XVIII began .Those watching were treated to some fantasticmatches starting on Friday Night with Old Essendon'swin over Fitzroy Reds in Club XVIII (3) . Mt . Lilydalegot off to an early lead in their Club XVIII (2) againstMonash Blues and they were never headed in their 56point win, but the match of the weekend was surelythe Club XVIII (1) decider between Old Xavs andPrahran . Old Xavs got off to a flyer leading by 37points at the main break but a spirited comebackfrom Prahran saw them close the gap to a goal atthree quarter time . A see-sawing last quarter followedwith Prahran hitting the lead with 10 minutesremaining and looking the stronger side . Old Xavsthen amazingly kicked the last three goals to againengrave their name on the premiership cup for the15th time in 17 years . Well done to all teamscompeting as the games were played in a fantasticspirit yet very competitive .

® Ear ly PreparationWho said Club XVIII players don't take their footballseriously. Turning up for my duties at ElsternwickPark on Sunday at just after 10am, I was amazed to

see both sides out on the ground doing warm ups anddrills . Whilst there is nothing unusual in that, thegame was not scheduled to start until i 1?Oam .Fearing I was turning up late and the game was aboutto begin, I checked my watch against another clockand relaxed .

- The ;yThe last round of every year always throws up greatstories of the improbable win, the surprise defeat, thehard luck story and the Cinderella run . The 2006nominations are-Improbable Win - Rupertswood's 86 point win overBulleen Templestowe . Fully aware that they requireda 70+ point win over 2nd placed Bulleen Temp .,Rupertswood headed to Ted Ajani Reserve knowingthat the task ahead was massive . Rupertswoodjumped out of the blocks to kick 8 goals to zip in thefirst quarter and steadily increased that to a 62 pointlead at three quarter time . Knowing the job was stillin front of them, a three quarter time rev up by CoachShane McLauchlan saw his bovs continue on andrecord an 86 point win and secure 4th spot on theladder .Surprise Defeat - Even though they have one roundto go. Collegians loss to Caulfield Grammarians takesthe gong for this one . After thumping Caulfield by 48points in Round 9 at Glenhuntly Oval, Collegians wereexpected to sure up top spot and the double chancewith a comfortable win at home . Not to be, withCaulfield keeping their finals hopes alive with a 21point victory .Hard Luck Story - Surely Bulleen Templestowe . Theyhave been in the four all year only to be knocked outof the finals (from 2nd spot mind you) after goingdown by 86 points . They missed out on Septemberaction by just over 2% .Cinderella Run - Yarra Valley OB in D1 started theyear disastrously losing 4 of their first 5 games . Theyrecovered remarkably through the middle part of theyear winning 7 of their last 8 games to finish third onthe ladder, only missing out on the double chance bypercentage .

® PS CZ - . g YearThe VAFAUA held their End of Season / Pre-FinalsDinner on Monday Night at the Victorian Club wit h

32 THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2006

around 200 "men in white" (and a couple of women)gathering to celebrate their year. Guest Speaker forthe night, Brian Waldron - CEO Melbourne Storm,gave an interesting insight into the world of NRLcompared to his background in Amateur and AFLFootball . The level of interest in his words wasobvious by the amount of questions fired at him fromthe floor. If allowed to continue I think he would still ibe there!! Brian, an ex-De La boy, not only spoke ofhis continuing passion for Amateur Football and howhe still attends game on a regular basis, but also ofthe similarities between Amateur Football and hiscurrent club . Several major awards were presentedon the night with details outlined in the "UmpiresCorner" section of the Amateur Footballer .Congratulations to all award winners and I'm surethere were a few sore heads on Tuesday .

® EdwardsPowerhouse Forward Paul Edwards h ;:s become thesecond player in the VAFA to bring up a century ofgoals when he kicked 7 (out of 12) in a losing sidelast weekend . His 7 on the weekend brings his tally to102 for the season, the first time Paul has kicked 100goals in the VAFA . He also takes out theSharpshooters award for D4 which is also a first fo rPaul in the VAFA . Also chasing the "Ton" in D4 and isa certainty to get there will be Hawthorn's DanLauletta, who currently sits on 94 goals with a least 2matches left for the Hawks to contest .

Continuing on with the useless stats from previousweeks is the number of players that have played everygame for their team in their respective sections .Useless but interesting .

In A`ection it v. :,> Old _'__ ::vs versus in a last

minute battle for fourth spot . The game was willing and

not a foregone conclusion despite the Xavs leading at

each change . The High School boys were valiant in the

last quarter and kicked 4 -oats despite being down to 1 7

men due to a`send-off' . How many times do teams defeat

the odds when one man down? Plenty from my

experience but not on this occasion and Xavs held on to

win 13 .13 to 11 .10 and would eo into the semi final the

following week against strong rivals, St Kevins Old

Boys . In fact, all four finalists were Catholic old boys'

teams with i4lareellin and St Bernards occupying the top

two spots . There is no doubt the Catholic Colleges

contribute strongly to the Australian game! Best players -Blood, Cranage, Andrew Dillon, P McDonald, Clarke,

McCarthy (Xavs) and McCully, Fairchild, R Clowes,

Bamert,T'hoanpson,Joseph (MHSOB) .

The Ormond Amateur Football Club was in distinct

danger of falling to their lowest position in amateur

football since the 1934 season as they faced relegation

from B Section . They hosted second placed, long term

rivals, De La Salle and only a win would guarantee theirstay in B Section . De La jumped out of the blocks,

peppered the goals and all but sunk the tvlonds but for

inaccurate kicking . Still, they were in a handy position at

quarter time, 4 .8 to 2 .2 . With the advantage of the wind

Ormond slammed on 9 goals in the second term and held

a 5 goal lead at the main break, Steve Grace, Naughton

and Stone all amongst the goals. De La almost caught

Ormond by three quarter time with Mannix . Bowdern,

Corin and Goodier finding the big sticks and it appeared

Ormond would hold on with the wind in the last . Well, it

was a classic last quarter with both teams constantly

attacking and each scoring 5 goals . At the final siren it

was a desperate Ormond hanging on by three points, 18 .9

to 17 .12 . Best players - McConville, Wilson, Robbins, A

Grace, S Grace (6), Martinov (Ormond) and Bowdern,f,'nrel, C;todi-uci :iei: . Spithill, J Hall (De La Salle) .

It was all happening in A 5~!ction with the final roundbeing played to decide the final four and, although

Collegians had 4 points plus percentage taken off them for

playing an ineligible player in round 1 0 and 17,they could

not lose the double chance . At the Junction Oval it was a

huge game between long term protagonists, Old

sc'hurnians (fourth) and

Old Scotch (third) with th

e fifth placed team, Un i

Blues playing bottomplaced IM azenod and

certain to obtain a place if

they won . OM's starte d

better to take a 2 goal lead at the first break . Peter 0 iirienwas winning plenty of the ball for OM's and David

Strooper was on fire whether at full forward or centre half

forward . Justin Husking and Stephen Hume were great

for the Cardinals and at half time Scotch had leveled the

scores . Strooper and Simon Bromell were the danger for

Scotch and they both continued to worry the Scotch

defenders in the second half with Strooper controlling the

show to finish with 7 goals in the 11 .12 to 8 .12 victory. Uni

Blues, as expected, had demolished Mazenod and moved

into the finals at the expense of Old Scotch .

In C Section, St Ki1dalSouth Caulfield made short work

of AJ AX in the first semi-final 21 .16 to 9 .3 . Best players -

Kerion, Govan (5), Hayes-Dewar, Mihaljevic, A

McCaw, L rvSeGaw (StK/Sth Caulfield) and Jeremy

Wrobel, P Goldberg, Kirzner (5), B Goldberg, Jason

Wrobel, Weisler (AJAX) . The second semi-final was a

much closer affair and went down to the wire . St Kevins

and Marcellin lined up against one another and there was

plenty of physical stuff early . Marcellin wasted some

opportunities in the first term and St Kevins lifted the pace

in the second to hold a 4 goal lead at the main break . Bello

and O'Flynn upped the ante for the Eagles in the third term

and had it not been for Brady and Hart's determined play

for SKOBS . Marcellin may have taken the lead . The final

term saw h4arcellin, with CaFfry notable, kicking some

good goals but SKOBS responded and outscored their

opposition to run out comfortable winners 15 .15 to 11 .17 .

Best named for the respective sides - Gross, Dollman,

Macey, Brady, Terzini, Gribble (SKOBS) and Purcell,

Mackintosh . Moran, Theisz, Caftry (5), O'Flynn

"Aarcellin) .

In A Section, :;rmond easily accounted ter "iturcellin

20 .16 to 8 .6 . This result ensured Ormond earned the right

to play in the following week's first semi-final and

Ivlarceilin were to be relegated along with Ivanhoe . Two

of the three McDonald brothers, Mark and David,played exceptionally well along with Phil Mehrten ,

Nash, Barnes and Russell . Crowe, Paatsch . AnthonyAmad, Carr, David and Lennox battled hard for theEagles .

Fawkner won back their spot in the top four in B Sectionwhen they defeated Uni Blacks and took the Blac''splace . It was an entertaining game with no more than 6points separating the two sides at any of the breaks .Fawkner w ere only I point ahead at three quarter time butwere too strong for the Blacks, winning 13 .15 to 12 .12 .

Best were G Busst, M Tymms, Brown, Hills, Weir andBuckley ( Fawkner) and Thompson, Wines, Marks,Heath, Huntington and Warren (Uni Blacks) .

In C Section, as expected, (}Id Trinity easily won thesecond semi against Thomastown, 22 .15 to 7 .5 . In thefirst semi it was a different type of game as AJAX held

the lead for the great majority of the game but Banyule`fought it out' and played a terrific last quarter to win by

4 points, 9 .11 to 9 .7 . Ladd, Hare, Mikac, Power, Gibson

(3) and Legge were Banyule's best . L Burstin,Kausman, R Marks, Basser, Friedman and Briskin

were best for AJAX .

Phil Mehrten from Ormond won the J N Woodrow

Medal in A Section as the competitions leading player

and Michael O'Dea (St Bernards) took out the G TMoore Medal in B Section . Paul Cox of Ormond wonthe C R Nei-, 7)u7-,, .'edal for the best lar,er in ,iuaiorSection 1 .

In A Section . University Blues regained their place in the

final four, thanks to Ormond's big win over Old Trir,ity,

who had displaced Uni Blues the week before . The Blues

did their part by `belting' their fellow, blue academic

fraternity from Monash University . 23 .20 to 8 .16 . Mark

Tyquin kicked I1 aoals in a match winning performance

for Uni Blues and was aided by Moore, Carne, Hindle,Vivian (4) and Forge . Better players for Monash were

Hopkins, Sweetland, Burgin, Curtain, Black and Olds .

In the final home and away game in B Section, CaulfieldGrammarians put up a dismal display against Ivanhoe,6 .15 to 21 .t1 . This defeat cost Caulfield top place which

went to Old Scotch on percentage . Scotch comfortablydefeated Old Paradians by 48 points . Best players were- Marx, Anderson, Mason, Tallent, Meadows (3),Clarke (Scotch) and Hough, Tellefson, Symes, FordCarroll, Lyons (Paradians).

Rick Sykes . Power House captain for the past 5 seasons,played his 150th game against Old Melburnians . Rick

had represented the State for the past 2 seasons and was

vice-captain of the 1975 squad . Rick joined the club in1969, played a season and a half in the U1 9's before being

promoted to the senior team where he played the majority

of his games at full forward . (Rick is currently anexecutS ~ e member of the Vi, 'A) .

In A Section, Caulfield Grammarian's high marking,

long kicking style under the tutelaee of coach John

~TVilson countered the `short' game of Coburg to clinch

Caulfield's place in the top four ; their first appearance at

this level since before the Second World War! Coburg

kept the pressure on Caulfield for the majority of the

game but could not effectively counter the Grammar

boys' style and the final margin was 12 points . Cayzer,

Williams, Hore, Ward (5), Tom Tootell and Smith were

Caulfield's best - Parkes, Scanlon (4), Lawson,

Callahan, O'Brien and Dumayne for solid for Coburg .

University H igh School Old Boys made a valiant

attempt to stay in B Section with a win over top four team

Old Melburnians, 11 .10 to 6 .7 . Although they drew levelwith St Kevins' (3Id Boys on points . St Kev*s had enoughpercentage up their sleeve to hang in there . Best players -

Kinnear, Read, Nettleton, O'Kane, Johnston (5), GBoag (UHS) and J Robertson, McArthur, Stan Smith,

_- (Old ', `~ (burnians) .

In A Section, Unhs-~ :i_F 11Sues had to win the last oame

to have a chance of m ;;l :ing the final four . It would be adifficult challenge u , they were to play second placed

Coburg . The Blues started brilliantly in the first quarter

and shot to a four goal lead . They maintained the lead at

half time but the boys from Coburg bounced back in the

third to draw within a kick before the Blues kicked a late

one to hold a two goal break at the last chan-e . The final

term was all Blues and they added another three majors

and held Coburg to three behinds . The final score : 12 .13to 6 .10 was agreat performance but when the scores came

through from the Old Melburnians versus Ormond

game, Otvl's had won easily 12 .26 to 6 .13 and held their

place in the four.

HWell done to the top four in both Seniors and Reserves andgood luck over the next three weeks .

ReviewThe round's focus was at the Bentleigh'Old Westbournematch, With a huge crowd in attendance, the Warriors startedthe better of the two sides and with the Damien Lockwoodseemingly in everything it looked as though a boilover was inthe making . However, in the second quarter, with Ben Pvleridithon song up front and Scott Sice doing well . the Demons didwhat the Warriors could not, and piled on the goals to put itseemingly out of the grasp of Westbourne .Ultimately it was the determination of Bentleigh that shonethrough as they set up the double chance and knockedWestbourne out .It was therefore up to West Brunswick to deliver againstSt .Marys to make the finals . They did just that as Dishon,Hilton and Pietsch went to town in the second quarter andblow the Saints away to set up a chance at glory .In the other matches, Elsternwick had to survive a hard gameagainst their old rivals in Monash . With the "Master of Cool"Steve Curtain demonstrating his importance to the Wickets,they fought back from a four-goal deficit to run out 20-pointwinners . Tim Bourbon was the star for the Gryphons .Meanwhile New finished well with a good win to UHS andSouth had a good hit out as they accounted for Swinburne .

Preview - SeniorsSecond Semi-Fina lSOUTH MELBOURNE DISTRICTS vs BENTLEIGH AF CFor the Swans, it has been big Bill McGee leading the chargeand the likes of Steven Aquilina . Joel Washington and JackCronan have ensured there has been plenty to cheer about asSouth have taken all in their wake this year . The addedincentive of those bozos trashino the Albert Park clubroomswill provide even greater inspiration, if they needed any.On the flip side . Bentleigh have not had it all their o w n wayafter starting the season as premiership favorites . However,when you have a superstar uo forward on 110 goals in ChrisSharp, combined with the likes of Scott Lawry, Brad Meehanand Charles McFadden . it is a team that deserves to be onegame away from the big dance .Until last week, there was a question mark over the Demons asto whether they would answer the challenge in the "biggames', however, after witnessing the lads dig deep in the lastquarter last week, that monkey is well and truly of, their back.Therefore picking a winner is almost a coin toss . SouthMelbourne go in deserved favorites having accounted for theDemons twice this season, however, it will be the side thatresponds best to finals pressure that tdlill ultimately salute . Inwhat will go right down to the taaire, I think that it will be SouthMelbourne that deservingly make it through to the Grand Finaland promotion to D2 .

First Scr7t Ftn . iELSTERNWICK AFC vsWEST BRUNSWICK AFCThese are two contrastingsides, on one hand you hav ethe Wicks who play with class led by Scott Grace and Brianand Craig Mahoney who are in top form . However, WestBrunswick have proven to be a team of fighters, and whocould forget their finals campaign last season that fell soagonizingly close, once again against all odds .Meanwhile, the Magpies have stars of their own with Bill Irvinglikely to have his say on proceedings as will Sam Pietsch andjarred Stictio1z.UntoRunateiy there can be only one winner, and while I doadmire the boys from the West, I cannot see the Wick-trainstopping just yet as they continue their extraordinary chargefor back-to-back glory.

First Semi-Fina lOLD WESTBOURNE vs ELSTERNWICK AF CIt was unfortunate for Elsternwick that tNestbourne'sseniors lost last week, not only for the fact that their ownside missed the double chance, but also that a number ofWarriors are now eligible for this match .It will not go all the Warriors way though, as the Wicketshave the likes of Aaron Foster who will be looking to kick abag . However, at the other end it has been D3 strongman,Damian Biliman who has taken all in his stride, whiieveteran Adrian Board oozes with big game experience . Assuch, I will stick with Westbourne to win by a few goals .

No, seriously, finals are here and we wish all teams thebest with their goals of premierships and promotions intohigher grades. For the umpires it is a special time as all that

cursing of Rob Sneddon (ourTraining Supervisor) as wetrain is coming to a close andwe should give thanks to that .

Revenge of the bal lMany times as an umpire we think as we are about to bounce theball "please don't hit me in the head" . Well, Paul O'Loughlinprovided a different look on it recently when he tried to throw theball up and it came off his head. Revenge 1 to the ball . Revenge2 to the Ivanhoe player who was heard to say "good thing aboutKarma" . Maybe Paul can re-enact that move next time he's attraining .

And Super Saturday it turned out to be !Great win by Box Hill North see them finals bound for the firsttime in their VAFA history. Fantastic game between Eltham andBulleen with the Turtles securing the double chance whilst theHawks proved too good for Albert Park . Finally, both Eley Parkand Syndal ended the year on a high as they accounted forNorth Brunswick and Richmond respectively. We also sawPaul Edwards break the magical 100 goal mark, a greatachievement .

ReviewDo or die for the Box Hill boys as they welcomed Power Houseto their home ground . Box Hill have been around the markmost of the year but needed to seal the deal with a win and didthey ever do it! A dominant second quarter set the win up withMartini with 7 goals and Beaumont the stars . As noted earlier,Edwards notched his 100th as he helped himself to 7 whilstEdwards and Taylor were also good . The result? We can all doit again next week !Eltham and Bulleen put on a great show as they fought it outat Bulleen . The margin was never much more than a few goalswith the Turtles eventually holding on for a great win . Austinand Thomas starred in defence for the Turtles whilst the everreliable Trinchi and Conn were Bulleen best . End of the road forthe injury ravaged Bulleen whilst onward for the Turtles.Albert Parks slim finals chance was blown early as Hawthornshot out of the gates . Lauletta and Pritchard starred forHawthorn whiist Mclndoe and Bennett were the Falcons best .None the less, good finish to the season who will be lookingforward to a Commonwealth games free pre-season in 2007.Great finish to the season for Eley Park as they upset NorthBrunswick . Viola starred with 6 and was ably supported bySilvers whilst North's best was Sorietto .Finally, Syndal also had a great finish as they beat Richmondby 9 goals . Zuccaro and Speakman were the best forRichmond . Syndal were a tad disappointed with their yearwhilst Richmond saw some improvement . Good luck for2007 !

PreviewSecond Semi Fina lHawthorn and Eltham dash with the winners taking the shorttrip to both D3 and the grand final . The sides split wins thisyear along home ground advantage lines and look evenlymatched .McCiaren and Blagrove are the keys up forward with bothbeing particularly strong overhead . The goal scoring optionsare boosted by Turner who whilst spending plenty of time onthe ball also bobs up consistently on the scoresheet. Galvinand Foo are the midfield stars with pace to burn . Down back,

Runco is the general andOgilvie a willing lieutenantin ensuring the tightest D4back line is kept in shape.Hawthorn has the trio ofLauletta, Tyson an dJackomos up forward with the result that they have been thehighest scoring side in D4 (highest in the VAFA in fact) .Ruckman Dawson and midfielder Aitken tend to get the Hawksmoving whilst Ogge and Ridley hold the fort down back .The Turtles had a bit of a mid-season slump before bouncingback in recent weeks whilst Hawthorn had a slow start beforegetting on a big roll towards the back end of the season . Notsure at all . Maybe Eltham .

First Semi Fina lRound 18 was just a dress rehearsal for Box Hill North andPower House as they meet again in the first week of the finals .The House have been a bit stop start in recent weeks with afew injuries not helping . No surprise in suggesting thatEdwards is both the star and the key. He certainly is the mainavenue of attack with the next highest goal kicker being on 18 .Taylor and Cooper are the other main avenues and will belooking to play key roles in the next few weeks . Haseler is ashonest as they day is long in the ruck whilst wingman Brady

reminds me of the Eveready battery, he never stops! Downback, the creative Sosic and human blanket Boland are theHouses stars .Box Hill North have been a bit up and down but proven to beon the mark when it matters . The best D4 small forward inPenny complements Martini (almost certainly in the team ofthe year if not for a few injuries!) whilst the enigmatic Langleyis also dangerous . The midfield oozes class with the likes ofBall, Irvine, Odza and Riscalla stars . Down back . Liston hasn'tbeen beaten too many times at Full Back .Can the House turn the 8 goal defeat around in the space of aweek? My biggest concern is that Edwards was great last weekand the House couldn't get over the line . Going against mywords of a few months ago but might have too go against theHouse, Box Hill North for me!Finally, in the magoos, Eltham should defeat Power HouseWhilst Hawthorn should keep their season alive against NorthBrunswick .AnyWay, don't forget you can get a hold of me via either0418348723 or ed .sill @locker.com .au

Birth Brunswick - 50 Games Ahmed Taha Well doneo'Taxi' for reaching the half century, an elusive lef t

foot half foward he has been one of the reasons whyNorth are challenging for a Reserves finals position ,This season he has also taken or coaching our Unae r10s leading them to a preliminary final . He has alsobeen part of the committee this season he has shownthat he is Green & Gold through & through .5 0 Games Luke Sparta Well done to Lukey for alsoreaching the 50 Games milestone . A regular seniorplayer his dash off half back has been very good .With some pre season work he will no doubt cementhis spot in the ones. An ever present at club functionshis dedication to the club is never in doubt . Alwayssmiling & friendly he is well liked & respected atAllard Park .I

WHAT A WEEK OF SEtA! FINAL LADIES AND GENT SWe witnessed a few great upsets, and saw some even betterand tougher footy. All players that took the field down atParkville two weeks ago showed what we had all beenanxiously waiting for and that's to see these boys/girls to giveit all they have got and just that little bit more in order play inthe Grand Final of 2006 .I must and fore most congratulate all the teams on making itthus far and hopefully many of the 2006 players stay on to playwith us in the years to come .Well done to all the teams, unfortunately only 2 teams can playin a Grand Final and I strongly remind players that the shouldnot drop their heads on not making it this year, but come outfiring next with the goal of reaching the Final's at the end of the2007 season .

THE f'' ;kTEUR FOOTBALLER 2006 47

UNDER 1911iReviewA real premiership performance by Xavs over at sunny sunbury,Booting eight goals to one in the first quarter, they blew any chanceRupo had early. Stevo Doyle jagged seven of the best and sensational allday. He was not alone, ably helped Henry Whiting, who ripped it and theever reliable Richie Benson taking his season tally to 76 - terrificperformance .Blues only just scrapped in over St Kevins at the Cray, . Four goals up atthree quarter and the opposers put up a fight . . . .a real fight Not enoughthough . David Wood was adjudged best on, while captain DiarmidHayter was also hardy.A scare for De La at this stage of the season, only just overcoming StBernard's . Behind until the last stanza, De La booted five majors to onein the last. James Crowe kicked three and was given the honors, whileJames Pitcher, Jacob Gotch, and Nick Roberts were also in fine form .In other games, Collegians toned 0!d Scotch and h9arceltin bored allwith a win against Bly .PreviewFirst week of the real stuff - get to Junction Oval Sunday 3rd September .Its going to be a cracker of a day. A day that will showcase the strengthof U19 football within the VAFA .11 :20am will see University Blues take on St Bernard's . The Uni havebeen strong of late, while St B put in a brave fight against De La lastweek . I can't tip against my brothers . I'll take the Blues, but I fear ameans to an end come next vreek .The main game 2 :00pm. Battle of the thumpers! Xavs take on De La.Two months ago I may have said De La easier than Bomber Bill in aclass 6 at Casterton . Now I say Haradasun! Xavs are strong all over theground . Benson will need to be shut down, while Dom Quinn, Alex Ross,Luke Kelly. . . . . (I could go on) all need to be stopped . Have a week offfellas.Lock of the week Dogs to beat Essendon . Please let me know anysuitable players for the U19 team of the year by early next weekbeatonc@tabcorp.cam .au . Happy punting !UNDER 19 (2 1The OM's outc!asssed a disappointing Raiders outfit by 6 goals . Themidfield that dominated the first had of the year - Kennon . Playfair andMorrison never let the home side in .Camberwell knocked off Carey by 33 . Hillier dobbed 4, stealing theGolden Boot from Bull, who was appropriately playing down the otherend. However it's the last time the Wellers will grace Barnard Reserve,so they should be re-planting turf at Trinity .The Friars toppled the Fielders by 23 . The Sharks couldn't saverelegation doom. against the Tonners. And finally the OT's dropped outof Section 2 with a BANG, delivering the Blacks a 140 point towelling .BanFeld (6) and Stockdale (2) starred in Trinity's last gasp of Section 2air.Four sides left on the track and you can feel the tension in the air,First Semi - Paradians vs Camberwell (2-0)The Raiders have that consistency across the board with very fewweaknesses at either end . Spinner's boys pose problems for anybackline. The Wellers on the other hand have won their last 5 . Fullforward Hillier has been a revelation for Coach Clarke . But Camberwellwill need to adapt to Manes Playing Fields quickly to have any chance .Parade by 14 points in their 11 .20 start.Second Semi - Carey vs f9elburnians (1-1 )With the likes of Bull . Elliot . Wagner, Parker, McQueen and Smithwick,the Panthers have been the yardstick all year. The OM's were

unstoppable in the first ha o06, but a streak of poorperformances has made themlook even mediocre at times .The victory against the Raidersat the weekend will give the mconfidence but I think Butch's Panthers have the her,ier artillery. 5goals and into Section 1 . bernecich4netspace .net .au1st Week of FinalsU RDER 19131My tipping this season has seen me finish on top with 81 °i (with finalsto come}, just ahead of the VAFA's favour :te scribe Ed Sill and otherfancied rivals in Horn, Healy and Cameron . E .E Gunn Reserve sawOakleigh defeat a potential final's rival in Ormond, with ChristopherMeyers booting 5 for Oak;eigh and Joshua Derks-Revere completing astellar season with another best afield performance . Other finalcontenders included St . Bede's tulentone, who scored an easy win overEmmaus St . Leo's with Lynch, Bodinnar and Andrews all kicking 5 forSBMT, while Old Ivanhoe were miserly in defence this week as RobertHondromatidis and co held MHSOB to only two goals for the match .Hayden Dekretser slammed home 6 goals for Old Ivanhoe while AndrewLim finished off well with a BOG performance for MHSOB . Finally, LaTrobe beat Old Essertlon but not by much, sfrhile "~3x ended Bentleigh'sdisappointing ~ ason by defeating them by 3 goals .

3/4 TIME FINAL

0 THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2006 55

Another season has ended on a high note wi - recordcrowds witnessing two close struggles for ultimatesuccess in Season 2006 . Section 2 after providingsuch a thrilling final four contest for several weeks,saw the widest winning margin in the three Sections .

Section 1At half time, in the minds of all but the Prahranplayers and their most optimistic supporters, itseemed Old Xaverians were well on their way to acomfortable victory as they held a commanding 37point lead . Their captain Patrick Nail was roaming theforward line and in addition to kicking three goalshimself, he set up several more as Perry, Davies andO'Kane marked well and constantly sent the ballforward . In the opening quarter, Old Xaveriansmoved the ball quicker and were on the look out forcreative handballs to put the Prahran defendersunder pressure .Prahran's third quarter efforts were thrilling as theymoved the bail quickly and their star forwards,Butterworth and Cartlidge marked strongly andfeatured in many forward thrusts . Prahran added sixunanswered goals, and by half way through thequarter Prahran had snatched a narrow lead . Only alate goal by Patrick Hall restored the lead to theXaverians, who were 6 points in front at the lastchange .More drama unfolded during the break, when itbecame known a Xaverian player had been reportedand sent off for the statutory fifteen minutes .Prahran took ,_-' . . ,- 'age of their extra player andLimoli goaled on -. ::e r~~n to tie the score . Prahranedged ahead through a goal to Stephens, whoreceived from the combined efforts of Cartidge andButterworth . Davies, through a long goal, reducedthe Xaverian deficit to one point before Morton toCartlidge to Butterworth resuited in another Prahrangoal . Enter Dan . Rush, whose singular efforts, erasedthe Prahran lead and put Old Xaverians in front bythirteen points . In a frenetic seven minutes, Rushadded twenty points off his own boot to turn a seven

point deficit into a 13 11 Ipoint Old Xaveria nvictory . Little wonder

, he was awarded themedal for being best on the ground .Old Xaverians had other stars in Captain Patrick Hall(4 goals'), midfielder Perry and forward, Davies .Prahran were gallant in defeat and their performancewas a meritorious one as they achieved many thingsthey were considered incapable of producing, e .g . aspirited comeback from a 37 point deficit as well astheir determination to continue to attack throughoutthe final quarter. in many ways to quote Winston-Churchill, this was Prahran's finest hour and theirvaliant ef"~rts will long be remembered . Their bestwere ' °{r ; : rs Chris Morton and David Green aswell as rr:- -c : er Jason Storer and forwards BrettCartlidge 1 Dave Butterworth .Congratulations to the Old Xaverians, who won theirthirteenth premiership in fifteen seasons .

L, . .u quickly raced to the lead and were neve ryMonash Blues, who despite striving hard

fell further behind each quarter. The Monashdefenders could not negate Justin Roberts and PatOaro!an, each of whom kicked five goals . Around theground, Mt Lilydale Captain Michael Rhodesdominated the aerial duels and clearly earned hisBest on Ground Medal .With a seven goal opening quarter by Mt Liiydale,Monash were forced into having to play catch upfootball for the remainder of the match, which was atask well beyond them on the day . In the end theLifydale based side won by 52 points :Congratulations to Mt Lilydale, who have come backfrom near oblivion over 2004 and 2005 to have wonfourteen consecutive games, which culminated in theclub's first premiership . Monash Blues were the topplaced team throughout the season, when they onlylost to Mt Lilydale, albeit thrice .Best for Mt Lilydale were Michael Rhodes . Damia n

Section 3 .In damp conditions under lights Old Essendonscored a 27 point win over a valiant Fitzroy Reds towin the Section 3 premiership . Old Essendon,learned from their only reversals of the season (TheReds defeated them twice!) and started the betterwith the dry ball . At quarter time Old Essendon led by14 points . The Reds had the better of the secondquarter duels and•trailed by ten points at half time .The margin remained the same at the last changeafter the Reds had moved to within a point during thequarter. The last quarter saw the Reds in attack forseveral minutes before they could goal to be within akick of the lead . Old Essendon forward Craig Morgansteadied his team with a left foot snapped goal . TheReds, despite several attacks could not penetrate theOld Essendon defence and with time elapsing OldEssendon forwards made the most of their lateopportunities to add another three goals to widentheir margin to 27 points .Congratulations to Old Essendon, who as their coachJohn Rush mentioned post game, struggled to fieldeighteen players at the start of the season . Their bestwere Blair Cariss, adjudged Best on Ground, BrettPapal, John Hughes and Brett Turner.The Fitzroy Reds or "The Perspirationals", accordingto their President, have enjoyed another successfulseason and just failed in the second round afterhaving beaten the eventual premiers twice in the firstround .
