LET THE GAMES BEGIN
Michael Sholly
CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER
With all the uncertainty
surrounding the beginning
of the season it is with great
anticipation and relief that I
welcome you all to the
commencement of the 2007
season.
No doubt you are all eagerly awaiting the start and can’t
wait to get things started. Everybody involved with
community football in Victoria have worked hard to ensure
the grounds and facilities are in good order for the season
and everyone needs to be congratulated on their efforts.
We begin this season with two new clubs, South
Mornington in D4 and St Francis Xavier in Club XVIII
Section 1. South Mornington combined with Powerhouse
last season to field an Under 19’s team and this year they
stand alone as a senior club and we look forward to them
fulfilling their goals in the future. St Francis Xavier is a
newly formed old boys’ team from a co-educational school
in Beaconsfield. As is evident from these two new teams,
the growth areas of football are in the outer metropolitan
areas.
The Under 19’s continue to grow with two additional
teams making 5 equal sections of 10. The Club XVIII
competition is flourishing with eight new teams this season.
Not everyone is suited to the two or three nights of training
and match day and therefore Club XVIII plays a great role
in meeting the needs of our clubs. Mt Lilydale, premiers in
Section 2, has rejoined the seniors and will compete again
in D4.
The scheduling of this year’s matches has been very
complicated due to issues regarding ground availability
mostly stemming from the drought. All clubs have had
their training severely restricted and ground usage for their
Saturday games will be affected. As a result some Under 19
matches will be played on a Saturday morning at 9.20am,
prior to the reserves, and other games will be played on
venues not often used in the VAFA. We thank the clubs
and the twenty-two councils who oversee these clubs, for
their cooperation.
The VAFA does not prioritise the competition and will
endeavour to treat each match with equal importance.
There will be no favourites with regard to the scheduling of
matches and each query will be handled uniformly.
During the off season, illicit drugs use and sledging by AFL
players has taken up much of the football time. The VAFA
have a responsibility to ensure that the games are played in
a safe environment and are being enjoyed by all. The
VAFA’s motto is Fostering Family Football. Illicit drug use
does not foster family football. The VAFA is working
closely with Vic Health and is reviewing its policies on the
matter and we will advise the clubs of our position more
formally in the future.
Sledging is something that the VAFA does not condone in
any form. I believe that we are the only competition that
has a send off rule for audible obscenity. This rule creates a
mental discipline to the players and this discipline transfers
to other areas. In the VAFA we have great respect for our
umpires and in part this rule assists with the
implementation of our policies.
Representative Football will again be of great importance
this year. We are disappointed the A – D4 match against
the SFL has been cancelled due to the drought as this game
has been very competitive over the years. However the
Under 19’s will be having two matches, against AFL
Queensland and the VCFL, the Under 23’s will play the
SAAFL and our senior team mix it against the VCFL as
they play for the Brian Moloney Cup. We trust that these
fixtures will provide extra motivation for our leading
players.
There are thousands of stories that will unfold over this
season and to assist us to spread the Amateur message, I am
pleased to welcome Russell Gould as the Communications
Manager of the VAFA.
Russell is currently a
journalist/editor of mX newspaper and is a former Amateur
Footballer scribe and VAFA player. Please contact him at
russell@vafa.com.au if you have any stories of interest.
Good luck to the five thousand players and two hundred
and thirty umpires who will actively participate in this
weekends matches. It is the start of a six month journey
which will hopefully be a rewarding experience for you and
all your clubs’ supporters.

A SECTION
by Jonathan Horn
A fortnight ago, I hunked my way down to my local ground,
hoping to catch a bit of A Section action. Alas, all I
encountered were a couple of old pervs and a bunch of kids
throwing bricks at one another. Totally rattled, I switched
on to 96.5 Inner FM but all they could give me was an hourlong Finnish folk festival. It then dawned on me – drought
and cashed up suburban clubs are the scourge of amateur
football but even they cannot detract from what looms as
the most even A Section in living memory.
1. Old Xavs - Even, that is, with the exception of these
guys. They’ve lost Ford, Mollard and Lethlean to retirement
but get back Matt McCarthy (Geelong), Cam Purss
(Werribee) and Nick Serafini (from overseas). They also
pick up the very handy Nick Bye (North Ballarat) Nick
Dimattina (Port Melbourne) and Dustin Lloyd (Rye). That,
my friends, is good list management – Lock ‘em in,
mortgage the house.
Before anyone starts throwing wobblies, bear in mind that
I rate the next nine teams fairly evenly and thus, it is pretty
much a token gesture that I go….
5. St Bernards Remember those St
Bernards teams where
there were half a dozen
blokes who could kick
ten on you and the rest of
the side were complete nut-bags? Well the modern version
is a bit more low key but they’ll certainly be a factor this
year. If anything, they’re definitely due for a change of luck.
Jumping ship are Brett Cook (Kyneton) Jacob Spinella (Old
Essendon) Andrew Gill and Liam Wilkinson (Point Coin).
6. Old Brighton - Pre-game solariums, a howling, souldestroying Antarctic gale and an A Section record that is,
quite honestly, an absolute rotter. Brighton have been
dismissed as jokers but I reckon they may be OK – they
lose Nick Perry (retirement) but have added some very
handy recruits, including Mark Ainley (East Perth & North
Melbourne) and Marcel Bruin (Springvale). A genuine
wildcard.
2. Uni Blues - Plenty of people willing to write off the Blues
over summer but the tide is turning. Contrary to internet
skulduggery, Patterson remains. They’ve also got a bevy of
young guys from the country, of which little is known. Not
going very well am I? A shattering Preliminary loss will still
linger in their minds but this will be a new look outfit and
they loom as very much a mystery side. Luke North is
overseas and Tom Wilcox has retired.
7. Collegians - They may have lost their coach but the
Wesley club have done well to retain most of their
premiership side, together with a few handy pick-ups in
Craig Robbins (Maffra) and Daniel Strachen (Coburg).
Apart from the fact that it takes half a day to find car park
at the Trott and the glut of De Grade celebrities in the their
lower ranks, it’s good to have the oldest Amateur club back
in the mix.
3. De La Salle - I’m not totally sold on De La. Lots of cats
around town reckon this is their year but the fact remains
– a/ they can’t beat Xavs and b/ they can’t beat Uni. They
regain Rob Bonnici from England and Viv Buckley from the
VFL but lose Damien Rayson to Coburg, David Lowe to
overseas travel and my soon-to-be flat-mate Luke Seager,
who did his knee in a Bikram Yoga class. The jury is still
out.
8. Old Scotch - The Cardinals lost me in about five minutes
after witnessing their First Semi Final last year. They also
lost their skipper (Berenger) to Old Camberwell and their
best utility (Wigney) to Old Carey. But they’re always canny
recruiters (Adam Houilhan joins) and they’ll have a whole
heap of very good kids from a cracking 2006 APS side.
Tempted to, but won’t write ‘em off.
4. Old Ivanhoe - Amateur football is a young person’s
game these days – lots of quick, little blokes on their P
Plates. As such, older, wiser heads and stronger bodies are
a something of a novelty and Ivanhoe has it in bucketloads. Were going along very nicely until injury derailed
their August so they’ll have a lot to prove. Luxon returns
from Queensland, Hope is fresh and firing and they’re in
this up to their ears.
9. Old Trinity - Trinity have lost Damien Buttler to the
‘burbs – that’ll hurt. They also lose Fraser Cameron, who
dragged a host of players over to Fitzroy, ala Kim Hughes
on the South African rebel tour (only joking scribe). Always
hard to get a handle on Trinity – Ramsden and Cultrera
have stayed loyal and Jack Healy and Scott Krakour return.
Reserving judgement – the sort of team who can beat
anyone on their day.

10 - Old Haileybury - The Badlanders adjourned to Darren
Seccull’s farm to celebrate their stellar Premiership win last
year. The way things are shaping up, I reckon most of ‘em
are still in the barnyard. Corrigan’s gone to play in the
Geelong league, Jenke is sitting out because of work
commitments, Martin, McIntyre and Brown are off to the
VFL, Trollope and Steinfort have packed up and young gun
Tom Chisholm is an indefinite out with a back strain.
Seccull and Stewie Loewe are fronting up again but they’re
pushing forty. Three years ago, I picked Nicholson’s St
Bernards to finish in the drop zone and I reckon I’m lucky
he didn’t burn down my house. This time around, I’m
willing to take the risk – goodbye Premiership Cup, hello B
Section. Not even you could pull this off Nicko.

by Tom Brain
Finally after months of uncertainty, the longest pre
season imaginable we are away, we get a start and all
our ambitions and hopes go on the line. I wish all
participants well both players and officials in what
promises to be yet another intriguing season of
Amateur Football.
SEASON AHEAD
Old Essendon – Finished third last year so obviously
will be looking to maintain and improve on that. The
return of the Biggs Brothers plus the recruitment of
U19 State Rep Jake Spinella adds to a strong list.
Darren Handley in his 2nd year will know his charges
better so a good season is again in the offing.
Caulfield Grammarians – Next highest placed in
2006 and a great performance in the first semi. Have
kept nearly the entire list intact and with the influx of
some young blood are sure to trouble every one
again. A pretty tough pre season though.
Uni Blacks – Stiff in the end in their first year back to
miss the finals. Will be smarter from that and be keen
to consolidate and improve. The addition of Huw
Lacey plus a few returns and a few new recruits
certainly makes Michael Rizio’s side one to watch.
Beaumaris – Very good year last year to consolidate.
But again for some incredible reason the travel bug
has hit the Sharks and a few of them have ventured
off into the overseas skies. But a man would be a fool
to write off a side coached by Russell Barnes.
MHSOB – New coach Mark Murray took the youth
policy last year and blooded some fine youngsters
culminating in a top second half of the year. Aided by
their excellent senior players has me thinking this
side will further improve and must be watched.
St Kevin’s – Traumatic season but did enough to
hang on. The loss of Paul Greenham and Ryan Chard
two of the main reasons of survival will really hurt.
New Coach Michael Duggan knows his footy has had
plenty of numbers on the track and is looking for
much improvement from the SKOB unit who back at
Righetti have a base in which to work.
Marcellin – Haven’t been here for a while and won’t
want to be here long. Murray Browne makes a
8
welcome return as
Coach. The loss of
Chunky and we believe
Papaluca is not going
to help his cause but the improvement the young
ones gained in A last year will be of great benefit. To
be watched closely.
Old Melburnians – Have had a disastrous last couple
of years almost losing their entire list. But I believe
Russel Morris has generated tremendous
enthusiasm around the place and they look forward
to a promising season. But one wonders whether the
loss of Lacey and James Beaumont can be offset by
a few games from Simon Beaumont, the first 4
weeks will tell.
St Bedes Mentone Tigers – Return very quickly after
a one year sojourn in C grade a tremendous effort by
all concerned. A tough act to follow winning 3
premierships in a season. But haven’t lost too many,
have recruited a great player in Ben Phibbs, have
some walk up starts from the U19’s, a great coach in
Luke Beveridge who keeps them on the straight and
narrow and the advantage of Brindisi Street. Expect
them to go well.
Ajax – Fantastic year probably should have won the
Game of the Century but was not to be. Will miss the
experience of Tim O’Shaunessy as the main man but
that is to taking nothing from new gun Stewie Powell
whose record at St Kevs is impeccable. Have picked
up a giant to play CHF which just adds to a
formidable list. Sure to impress.
PREVIEW
Always terribly hard to tip winners in Round 1 as
anything could happen and more so in this staggered
start so I will be very staid in my initial
prognostications and will go with all the home sides.
OEG will repeat their practise match win over
MHSOB. OM’S at the Junction will just give “The Fly”
a first up win. Marcellin in their first test will finish to
the fore of Beauy. Blacks to get home at the Uni
against a super competitive Jackers outfit, while the
flag unfurling and a huge home crowd including me
will see the Tigers over the line.

C SECTION
by Peter Williamson
INTRODUCTION
Hello readers and welcome to Season 2007! This
year’s C Section promises to be a tight affair, with
all four new teams (Whitefriars and Mazenod from
B Section, and Old Carey and Rupertswood from
D1 Section) all promising to add a new dimension
to the competition.
In short, I am taking Old Camberwell as my early
season favourites, with the acquisition of many top
line players strengthening Paul O’Shaughnessy’s
arsenal, despite the loss of Brent Christie. Other
contenders must include Fitzroy Reds, with
newcomers Scott Dann, Anthony Kenna and Matt
Davies set for a big year; Ormond, who blooded
plenty of youngsters while playing finals football in
2006; and newcomers Old Carey, who have
acquired former Old Scotch trio Tom Wigney,
Robert Josephs and James Ross, and ex-Old
Trinity man Jon Mai, are a good dark horse for
mine. Parkdale Vultures must also come into
consideration, and it will be interesting to see what
influence new key defender Rochford will have.
Whitefriars, relegated from B Section, have not
had an ideal preseason in terms of available
personnel, and at this stage, pending any
developments in that regard, I’ll be keeping them
safe. But certainly the loss of Jordan and Grant
Hill, plus Rob Petracca will hurt. Mazenod,
especially if the likes of returnees Jerome Dunn,
Michael Chamberlain and Sam Reed can stay injury
free and play to their full talent, should finish
somewhere in the middle.
D1 runners-up Rupertswood, who have enjoyed a
great run since joining the VAFA in 1999 are
another in this category. A strong running, skilful
side, they should match up against most teams
and will be particularly difficult to beat at home.
Time will tell if they can adjust to this level as well
as they’ve done in the lower levels previously.
That leaves Monash Blues, and North Old Boys/St.
Patrick’s, and as I’ve heard nothing from anybody
14
about them, I’m
going to put them in
my bottom two.
Petty, yes, but if I’m
not hearing hype, I
don’t take it as a
good sign. NOBs Michael Barker is as talented as
any forward in the division, but needs the midfield
delivery for his side to benefit from his talents,
whilst the signing of John Barker intrigues.
The lack of a cohesive preseason program for many
teams (and maybe some media 'black bans'?)
makes these assessments somewhat difficult, so I
wouldn't be surprised if, at least early on,
expectations are turned on their head. But it's the
'sturm and drang' of this unpredictability that makes
it exciting. Bring it on, I say!
ROUND ONE PREVIEW
The first game up for preview sees 2006 D1
Premiers Old Carey travel to Gillon Oval to take on
North Old Boys/St. Patrick’s, who were eighth last
year. The Panthers as mentioned earlier have three
recruits from A Section clubs, as well as an
assortment from other sections and local leagues
and are quite balanced in all parts of the ground.
NOBs have also been active on the recruiting front,
but I'm not expecting big things right away. The
Panthers will miss 'Dolly' Parton, but should still put
out a good side with Steve Collins, Travis Bull, Pete
Tiras, et al. I'm gonna go Old Carey on this one.
Next up is Mazenod OC and Parkdale Vultures at
Central Reserve. The Nodders have lost Dom Dunne
to VFL club Sandringham, but the return of the
aforementioned trio from injury should more than
make up for that. However, apart from the midfield,
there are a lack of names that jump out and demand
attention. For the Vultures, Tony MacGeorge is still
doing the business, and along with O'Meara and
whichever Sullivans and Barrs are playing this year,
but the loss of Stephens and Hecker tempers this
somewhat. Tricky to call, but I'll take Mazenod
today.

Rupertswood made their C Section bow at E.E. Gunn
Reserve up against Ormond with both sides full of
exciting youngsters. The home side can boast Bryce
and Leigh Deledio, David Robbins and Robert
Chisholm, along with the veteran leadership of Matt
McConvill. For Rupo, Dave Collins, Tom West and
Leigh Brennan will provide the drive and momentum.
Rupo will definitely be competitive and take it right up
to the Monders, but I think the home side may be too
polished for the visitors today. Ormond to win.
Monash Blues host Fitzroy Reds at Frearson Oval in a
clash of the primary colours. Word on the street (and
in the chatrooms) is that the Reds are primed for a
big season while the Blues will have, well, the blues,
and struggle, especially with no 'Spider' Smith. But
Round One always produces a surprise or two, and
Monash will be looking to catch the Reds short. Can't
see it happening today, especially if Tim Davis and
Jeremy Rawlins are on song. The 'Bolsheviks' to win.
Finally, it’s Whitefriars versus Old Camberwell at
Whitefriars College Oval. The Wells have recruited
strongly, securing (deep breath) Tristan Berenger,
Ryan Chard, Gabriel Deane-Johns, Rayden Tallis and
Tom Bayford, amongst others. In contrast, the
Friars have lost some key personnel, and may still
be in a period of adjustment. With the continued
firepower of David Loats in the goalsquare, and the
aerialism of Ryan Chard, I'm gonna take Old
Camberwell on this one.
CONTACT
Match reports, milestones, social events, and
anything else can be sent to me via email at
Peter.PS.Williamson@centrelink.gov.au
and
theqwill@hotmail.com.
I am keen to hear from all clubs and establish a
degree of parity as far as publicity goes. Please
keep your match summaries to 50-100 words if
possible (due to space restrictions), but I am
certainly happy to take on board any other
comments, be it about the match or other things.
Remember, this is about your club, so make the
most of it. As David Lee Roth said in "Hot For
Teacher", 'gimme somethin' to write on!'
Good luck to your team today, and have a great
VAFA weekend!

VAFA d gossip
an
FOR THE LOVE OF THE GAME...
• NEW YEAR – NEW CLUBS
Welcome to the 2007 season and finally we are underway.
FTLOTG would like to welcome our 2 new clubs to the
Association, St Francis Xavier OC and South Mornington.
St Francis Xavier OC is a brand new club based at
Beaconsfield and will compete in Club XVIII (2) in their
inaugural year. South Mornington joins us from the
Southern Football League and will compete in D4. South
Mornington was a partial member of the VAFA last season
when they formed an U19 side with the assistance of
Power House in U19 (South). Their U19 side has gone into
recess for this season to ensure their Reserves side is viable
but will return next season with strong numbers from their
junior club. South Mornington will be coached in their
inaugural year by local legend Sein Clearihan and St
Francis Xavier will be lead by former Pakenham player
and coach Justin Pearson. Good luck to these clubs and
every success as they begin their VAFA journey.
• Cystic Fibrosis Cup Cancelled
Unfortunately, due to the delayed start to the season, one of
the regular highlights of the VAFA’s representative
schedule has been cancelled for this year. George Voyage’s
A-D4 side which takes on the Southern League annually
for the Cystic Fibrosis Cup has been a victim of the need
to play regular season matches over the June long-weekend
in both competitions. George, who is undefeated against
the Southern League, has offered is services to assistant the
other representative teams in whichever way he can. Given
his record and the results from other games last year, he is
sure to be a valuable asset.
• Representative Matches
Even with the cancellation of the Cystic Fibrosis Cup for
2007, the VAFA has a very busy representative schedule
this season. The VAFA’s first representative match sees the
U19 side take on Queensland U21 in their return match
from last season. The match will be played at Sportscover
Arena on Sunday June 10th commencing at 1pm. The U19
side will again be coached by Justin Pickering who will be
hoping for much more favourable conditions than they
encountered last year in Brisbane. The VAFA U19 side will
also take on the VCFL U19 side on July 15th at either
Ballarat or Shepparton.
The VAFA U23 side meets old foe South Australia in the
final match of the AAFC Tri-Series on July 14th in
Adelaide. The VAFA must rely on South Australia beating
Western Australia on June 2nd, then defeat South Australia
handsomely to have any chance of retaining the
championship. The side will be lead by former St Kilda
and Melbourne Defender Jamie Shanahan, who will be
assisted by former St Kilda team-mates Nathan Burke and
Jason Daniels, as well as former Old Haileybury Coach
18
Mick Dwyer who has been appointed Chairman of
Selectors.
The Senior representative side meets the VCFL in their biannual clash for the Brian Molony Cup on July 15th at
either Ballarat or Shepparton. Having lost the last two
matches against the VCFL, the VAFA are very keen to
ensure the ledger returns to square (currently 5-4 in favour
of the country). A coach for the VAFA side is yet to be
named, although several high profile candidates are being
considered for the role. An announcement will be made
shortly.
Vale – John Wilson
John Wilson, VAFA Life member and former
representative coach, passed away on Friday April 20.
John had been battling illness for some time.
John was an outstanding contributor to the Caulfield
Grammarians’ Football Club from the time he left
Caulfield Grammar in 1945 until he retired as a player
after the 1955 season. John coached the senior team
from 1961 to 1971, winning the D Section flag in his
first season culminating in the outstanding win in the A
Section premiership in 1970.
Both John and Liz continued to support the club
throughout the years in an outstanding manner. In
recent times, JA would even mark the ground for us on
Fridays before taking up his seat on Saturdays to cheer
on the Fields. His encouragement to all players and
coaches, up to and including the 2006 season, was
greatly appreciated and acknowledged by all. He would
fiercely defend CGFC whenever it was necessary.
John was also recognised for his outstanding
achievements within the amateur football code by
being awarded VAFA life membership in 2003. In
addition to serving on the permits and registrations area
and committee of VAFA football for many years John
also coached a VAFA representative team in 1971. He
had an association with amateur football extending
over 62 years.
One of the greats, John will be sorely missed but has
left a lasting legacy of exceptional commitment to the
VAFA and CGFC. Our thoughts are with Liz and the
family at this sad time.
• Certificate of Merit – Colin Green
At the 2007 VAFA Season Launch,
6 recipients were presented with
the VAFA Certificate of Merit
award for exceptional service to
their clubs. Each week we will
profile these recipients and this
week we congratulate Colin Green
from MHSOB.
V
Colin played with MHSOB from 1960 through to 1966,
topping the VAFA A-Section goal kicking in 1963 and the
VAFA U19 goal kicking in 1961 and 1962. Colin coached
the MHSOB U19 side from 1967 through to 1970 before
making a comeback for one year in 1971.
Colin continued to be a loyal supporter of MHSOB
through the 70’s and 80’s, helping out wherever and
whenever he could. Colin assumed the role of President in
1996, a position which he still currently holds along with
the prestigious role of Canteen Manager (his most
important role). Colin was rewarded with MHSOB Life
Membership in 2001 and a worthy Certificate of Merit
recipient.
• Joke of the Week
18 year-old Patrick goes to confession. "Bless me Father, for I
have sinned. I have been with a loose woman!" he says...
The priest asks, "Is that you, little Patrick?"
"Yes, Father, it is."
"And who was the woman you were with?"
"Ah, I can't be telling you that, Father, I don't want to ruin her
reputation now."
"Well, Patrick, I'm sure to find out her name sooner or later, so
you may as well tell me now. Was it Bridie O'Shaunessy?"
"I can't say Father - honestly."
"Was it Ginger Murphy?"
"I'll never tell."
"Was it Rosie Brady?"
"I'm sorry, but I can't name her."
"Was it Mary O'Callaghan?"
"My lips are absolutely sealed Father."
"Well I'll bet it was Suzie O'Brien, then?"
"Please, Father, I can't tell you for it wouldn't be fair on her."
The priest sighs in frustration. "You're very tight lipped, Patrick
and I admire that. But you've sinned and have to atone. You
can't be an altar boy now for 4 months. Now you go and
behave yourself and don't let me see you again for a while
now."
Patrick walks back to his pew, and his friend Murphy slides
over and whispers,
"What'd you get?"
"Four months vacation and five good leads!"
• A Good Day’s Night!
The Hampton Rovers AFC & the wider community were
brought together as one to support the fight against
depression and to help out a great clubman in Joel Day.
Saturday 28th April’s function was a huge success raising
$20,000 for the Day Family while raising awareness of
depression. 360 people passed through the doors at Boss
James Reserve making it one the biggest Rovers
functions ever.
V
$1,000 was also raised for Beyond Blue, the national
depression initiative, through the selling of blue
wristbands.
Highlights from the night also included Billy Brownless
and Tim Watson auctioning items including a morning with
the SEN Morning Glory crew, Billy telling the famous
“kick after the siren” and “kick over the silo” stories, and
many more.
The club would like to thank everyone involved: from
those who volunteered their
services in both organising the
night and helping out on the night,
to those who donated and
purchased auction items and
donated on the night. For more

D1 SECTION
by Fraser Cameron
Welcome one and all for yet another season of
grassroots VAFA family footy. Those who were keen
readers of last years’ Amateur Footballer will have
realized that “Willo” and myself have experienced a
promotion / relegation of our own as scribes, with Peter
stepping up to C section to replace myself. Rest
assured, my relegation was self-induced (due to an offseason change of clubs) but I’m sure Old Paradians and
Hampton Rovers will hope to give me plenty of good
things to report during 2007!!!!
Maybe / Maybe Not
Old Paradians – It
would be a tough call to
tip the Bundoora boys
for a ‘double drop’, and
I’m not about to suggest
that here. No doubt Mark Spinoso is taking charge of a
club which is ‘rebuilding’. Unfortunately, they can’t
afford to ‘bottom out’ because that would mean only one
thing in VAFA footy….nup it won’t happen.
There’s been plenty of rumor mongering during the
extended off-season, and with the inevitable 2 week
delay to the season proper, it’s high time we found out
what’s truth, and what’s fiction. At the start of the
season, every team’s hopes will be high, but there’s no
doubt some will be more hopeful or optimistic and
genuinely confident.
Prahran – With Paul Greenham taking over from Staff,
the change at the top will bring new ideas and some
fresh enthusiasm to the list. I understand some handy
inclusions have arrived, and this may mean a better
showing by the Two Blues in ’07.
Unfortunately, access to facilities and grounds is likely
to play a big part in the early season form of most
teams. Those who have managed to train regularly (on
grassy grounds with Sherrins), rather than haphazardly
(on basketball courts or on the beach), will have an
immediate advantage.
So, with only a modicum of confidence, let’s have a
quick rip through the teams which make up D1 and then
look forward to these weekends’ clashes.
Oakleigh – a bit of a smoky, they’re coming into D1
boasting a very handy home ground advantage. No
doubt they will play hard physical footy, and every side
will be happy to leave Scammell Reserve with the
points.
Peninsula – the longest journey in the VAFA? Well they
were until South Mornington joined the club XVIII!!! The
Pirates will be keen to jump another rung in a hurry,
given their solid junior program and the gains of last
year.
Flying
Old Geelong – with a couple of losses, but many
acquisitions, the Como Park boys will be keen to atone
for their surprise exit last season. They have good depth
and will take a power of beating in 2007
Battling
Bulleen Temp – controversial, maybe. However, they’ve
lost several quality young players who were expected to
play major roles in their rebounding from last years’
astounding round 18 debacle. Whilst their U19s won the
flag last year, stepping into senior footy is a different
thing altogether. Will need to finish strongly.
Old Mentonians – I’ve seen the OMs first hand and it’s
no surprise, given the quality of their home ground at
the moment, that they are way ahead in their preparation
than most sides should be. Ben McGee has introduced
a greater level of hardness and discipline to the club,
and this should see them thereabout at the right end of
the season.
Yarra Valley – apparently not as deep in their list as they
would want, and need to keep their best 22 on the park
as often as possible to be a chance for a finals’ repeat.
The Bushrangers are known for fighting against the
odds, and at this staged, they’re stacked against them.
Hampton Rovers – just knocked off Monash by 12 goals
a fortnight ago, and have had a ‘feel good’ off season
with some fundraisers and a change of coaching staff
generating many positive vibes at Boss Reserve. Should
challenge strongly.
20
Therry Penola – is this another amateur club suffering
from being surrounded by suburban clubs with cash?
Methinks so and, despite the Herculean efforts of their
long standing players and committee, I can’t help but
think something’s gotta give in 2007.

D2 SECTION
by Jono Healy
Welcome all to the new season. 2007 promises to be an
exciting year with plenty of surprises, and let’s hope that
my tipping performance can improve on my woeful
showing in 2006.
Congratulations on winning promotion and a big
welcome to D2 for South Melbourne Districts and
Bentleigh. To Emmaus St Leos and Banyule good luck in
trying to get back up to D1 again.
My predicted ladder:
1. Aquinas OC
2. Emmaus St Leos OC
3. Werribee AFC
4. Salesian AFC
5. South Melbourne Districts
6. Glen Eira AFC
7. Williamstown CYMS
8. Banyule AFC
9. St Johns OC
10. Bentleigh AFC
To those teams I have picked to make the finals best of
luck, and to those who I have chosen to miss out, please
try and prove me wrong.
Emmaus St Leos OC AFC $1.40 v Bentleigh $2.70
My spies have told me that Emmaus St Leos new coach
Ben Pilley has put his players through an arduous preseason, and the goal for 2007 is to get straight back up
to D1. Baranello, D’Amico and McKenzie are all class
players and the Animals are sure to be thereabouts
come finals time. The success of Bentleigh this year will
come down to one man. Chris Sharp. The bald headed
goal kicking machine doesn’t really look like a footballer,
but he has an excellent knack of finding the footy and
kicking goals. If he gets injured the Demons will
struggle. Being unsure of how many or if any
Dimmatina’s will be pulling on the red and blue this
season and taking on a team that won four games in D1
in 2006, I expect Emmaus St Leos to be too strong in
this one. Emmaus St Leos by 37 points.
Glen Eira AFC $1.70 v Williamstown CYMS $2.05
Glen Eira look to have held on to the majority of their
26
better players for 2007,
and with skipper Alex
Tsirogiannis
going
around once again the
Saints
should
be
pushing for a finals berth come September. My mail is
that Steve Vamvakis has been on fire during the preseason, snagging a bag of eight goals in one practice
match, and the experienced forward could be a nice
value bet for the sharp shooter award this year.
Williamstown did extremely well to avoid relegation in
2006 and after making an atrocious start to proceedings
last season the boys from Willy will surely be ready to
put some early wins on the board. With Tim Wheeler,
Ben Hynes and Shaun McGuiness all facing up for yet
another season there is enough class in the ranks from
the side across the West Gate, but at Packer Park I
expect Glen Eira to be too strong. Glen Eira by 12 points.
Werribee AFC $1.50 v Banyule AFC $2.40
Werribee have always been hard to beat at Soldiers
Reserve and with an excellent junior program in the
Western Suburbs the Tigers are sure to play an exciting,
fast paced type of football this season. The departures
of Nathan Addamo, Daniel Lee, Ben Stornebrink and
Dean Whitten are sure to be felt, but new coach Kirk
Norton is sure to have done his homework during the
pre-season and will have his troops ready to fire firstup. Banyule impressed during the pre-season with a ten
goal victory over the Monash Gryphons, but have had a
few of senior players join Kew in the off season, and
although a couple of handy acquisitions from McLeod
are sure to fit in well, a trip to Werribee in the opening
round is a stiff proposition. Expect the experienced
heads of Keogh, Kidd, Carson to get Werribee over the
line by 31 points.

Salesian AFC $1.33 v South Melbourne Districts $3.10
Despite the retirements of Ivan Bobetic and Mark
Canavan, Salesian should once again feature in the
finals race in 2007. With Mick Hazell arguably the most
polished footballer in the division, Salesian have a guy
that can win a game off his own boot with a bag of
goals. Big ruckman Patty Dunne is probably the key
player for Salesian and new coach Robbie Mallet will be
hoping for an injury free season from his number one
tall. Simon Ionnides and Dimitri Kalogiannis are the
young players to keep an eye on for the team from
Chadstone and with the possible signing of Nick
Rutherford, Mallett should have plenty of talent at his
disposal. South Melbourne are ready for the step up to
D2 and as long as Paul Cheevers and Steve Aqulina can
stay fit I expect them to perform admirably in this
division. Tough ask to travel to Bosco Street first up
however. Salesian by 22 points.
St Johns OC $2.40 v Aquinas OC $1.50
St Johns have done well to recruit Chris Cachia and
Robbo from Syndal Tally Ho but will sorely miss the
services of John Ryan up forward this season. Aquinas
on the other hand were close to promotion during 2006
and with veteran Glen Whitehead once again captaining
the club I expect the side from Ringwood to go well this
season. All the early money for the premiership has
come for them. These are the type of games that the
Jocs failed to win last season, and unfortunately for the
boys from Doveton I expect Aquinas to win this one by
25 points.

. . . Retrospective
by Geoff Reilley
5 YEARS AGO - 2002
CEO, Phil Stevens, reminded us that the busiest
time of the football year was over and we could now
“get on with the games”. The coaching accreditation
course had been completed as had the Coaches’
Night, the Sponsors’ Night, the Season Launch
Dinner for Presidents, Secretaries and Members and
many more gatherings. There was a new Umpires’
Adviser, Brendan Carland and a new
representative contest for our C-D clubs against the
Southern Football League.
And there was an exciting start to the season in A
Section when the Old Xavs, as they had done for
the past seven years, watched the unfurling of the A
Section flag, only this time they were at Marcellin
and the home club were the proud ones exhibiting
their spoils from the 2001 season. The game was
fast, full of great one on one battles and only
Marcellin’s inaccurate kicking in front of goal may
have stopped them from starting with a win. The
Xavs were too good, 13.10 to 10.16 and the best
players were – Scanlon, Stoney, Brushfield,
Mollard, Blood, Occleshaw (Xavs) and Hansen,
Romanin, Cox, Thiesz, Jarred, Goodwin
(Marcellin).
A Section coaches were Paul Cooper (De La Salle),
Simon Dalrymple (Marcellin), Luke Soulos
(MHSOB), Paul Fahey (Old Ivanhoe), Dale
Tapping (Old Scotch), Leigh Carlson (Old Trinity),
Tim O’Shaughnessy (Old Xavs), Peter Nicholson
(St Bernards), Mike McArthur-Allen (SKOBS)
and Michael Conlon (Uni Blues). A Section Field
Umpires were – Jamie Kvins, Graeme Hunichen,
Rob Sneddon, Steve McCarthy, Anthony Damen,
Albie Firley, Jason McNiece, Peter James, Wayne
Hinton and Mark Gibson.
10 YEARS AGO – 1997
The CEO, Phil Stevens, welcomed all amateur
football followers to a new season and announced a
change of Umpire Adviser. Michael Sneddon was
appointed to take over from Brian Bulluss, who
had held the job for the previous 5 seasons. Jason
Frenkel was appointed A Section scribe replacing
the respected Don Blackwood and Jason paid
34
tribute to the quality of
Don’s work.
In perfect conditions,
the Old Xavs unfurled
the 1998 A Section Flag
at Toorak Park and
then proceeded to
pummel their opponents, St Bernards, unmercifully
in the first term kicking 10.2 to zero. As the
afternoon wore on things did not get much better for
St Bernards as Xavs dominated all over the field but
at least Xavs’ scoring was restricted to a degree.
Dan Richardson booted 8 goals, Jones and
Bourke added 11 between them and David
Landrigan and Tim Wood were outstanding
throughout the game. Jason Gollant was the only
multiple goal score for St Bernards with 2 and was
joined by Tim Dobson and Ben Chatfield among
the hard to find best for the visitors. The final score
of 26.10 to 7.2 suggested the Xavs would again be
a power and the Bernies coach, Gary Foulds,
would have much to think about.
B Section scribe and St Kevins stalwart, Terry
Quirk, reported on the Mazenod versus St Kilda
South Caulfield game and highlighted the fact that
Mazenod had found a focal point up forward in
Chris Harrison who finished with 8 goals.
Mazenod were in charge by half time and looked
very sound with a comfortable 22.8 to 13.13 victory.
Better players – Harrison, O’Hara, Schofield,
Ballenger, Murray, Young (Mazenod) and
D’Agostino, Gilmore, Diamond, Tkocz, Buck,
Astapenko (St Kilda).
VAFA President, Jim Hawkins, in his opening
statement in The Amateur Footballer spoke thus –
‘In an era of disruption in football in general, the
VAFA is pleased to be able to offer Member Clubs
an optimistic future’. He reminded all VAFA
followers that, unlike the professional football
bodies below the elite level, the VAFA was
continuing to grow its ranks.
The 1986 All Australian and Victorian Captain,
Dominic Spillane (Old Paradians), adorned the
V
VAFA RNd 1 07.qxd
26/4/07
11:04 AM
Page 35
cover of the Amateur Footballer and played in his
team’s first round win against the reigning A
Section
Premiers,
Collegians.
Despite
Collegians’ Richard Herman with 6 goals and
excellent games from their stalwarts Irvine,
Lemon and Bickford, Paradians ran away to
score a huge win, 24.13 to 12.8. Skerrit,Woods,
Grills and Gleeson (6) were outstanding for
Paradians. Having won the B Section pennant the
previous season, Paradians looked to have every
reason to believe they would be a power in A
Section as well.
Old Trinity and Fawkner, Grand Finalists in C
Section the previous season, both started their B
Section campaigns in fine form to win against St
Kilda CBC and Uni Blacks respectively.
The 85th year of amateur football commenced with
the trial, for one season, of free interchange of the
20 players in each team. There was some
disappointment expressed by the VAFA Executive
in that the number of teams competing had dropped
from 140 (1976) to 137. B Section grand finalists
from the previous season, Marcellin and Caulfield
Grammarians, began their season strongly with
respective wins. Marcellin received solid opposition
from Uni Blues but the comfortable margin of 19
points at the final siren was due in the main to
Dillon, Crimmins, Carrucan, Butler (4), Mahon
and Toniolo for Marcellin. Standish, Schauble,
Church, Melville (3), Hindle and Hager were
Blues’ best. Caulfield ran away from Old Trinity
19.16 to 10.14 with best players – Lester, Lean,
Morphet, Clark, Griffiths, Long (Caulfield) and
Robison, S Emerson, Jones, Williams, Beer,
Cowley (Old Trinity).
100 games to Old Brighton’s Club Captain, Ian
Paroissien. Ian joined the old boys in 1969 and
proved to be not only a close playing defender but a
very attacking one with considerable skill. Ian was
best and fairest in 1971 and also served as Honorary
Treasurer.
George McTaggart, Editor of The Amateur
Footballer, announced that the taking over of
Elsternwick Park by the VAFA for the 1967 season
meant that it was the Association’s third “central”
ground since inception, the previous central grounds
V
being Olympic Park No 2 Oval and the St Kilda
Cricket Ground. Caulfield Grammarians and Uni
Blacks in A Section performed the opener at the
new headquarters but the Blacks prevailed easily in
the finish 10.18 to 7.11. Best players – Sinclair,
Crouch, McGregor (3), Saunders, Shackleton,
Costello (Blacks) and Herington, Barker, Ward,
Chaffey, J Tootell, P Hore (Caulfield).
In B Section it was a close tussle between Uni Blues
and Uni High School Old Boys with the Blues
winning 11.5 to 8.16. Best players – Wilson,
Loftus-Hills, Rutherford, Rhoden, Church
(Blues) and Prosser, A Hume, Kinnear, Heaton, G
Boag, Nettleton (UHSOB).
Old Melburnian’s Murray Peden played his 100th
game and having given his club great service both
on and off the field, received the plaudits of the
OM’s supporters.
During the summer preceding the commencement
of the 1957 season, amateur players and amateur
football generally received outstanding recognition
during Melbourne’s Olympic Games. On Friday
7th December, visiting sporting enthusiasts from
all over the world had the pleasure of observing a
demonstration Australian Rules football match. The
game was played at the main stadium and was
between a team selected from the VAFA and a team
of amateur players, currently playing in either the
VFL or VFA. The VAFA team was victorious (12.9
to 8.7) in modified conditions such as slightly
smaller playing space (by 5 yards in both length and
width) and with less than the normal time between
quarters.
The spectacle met the requirements of the
International Olympic Federation who always
asked the host nation to include in the games, a
demonstration of a national sport. The Honorary
Secretary of the VAFA, Jack Fullerton, as
organiser of the demonstration match, also sat with
HRH, the Duke of Edinburgh, to explain the finer
points of the game.
One of the participants that day, boundary umpire,
Jack Wilson, is still active in amateur football
today heading up the team of gatekeepers at
Elsternwick Park. Jack also played VAFA football
and was a premiership coach with Ormond
Under 19’s and continues to devote his time to the
great traditions of amateur football.

What a great off season – so many INS and OUTS to
keep us busy. David Hicks is finally out, Lara Bingle
was in and out all summer, Shane Whitnall wants to
be in the media circus but he should stay out,
Brendan Fevola is on the outer at home but in form
against the Dons yet was he ever in with Lara Bingle
? ? Damien Oliver has ended his run of outs in Group
1 races, my old mate Aaron Baddeley is in with God
and winning tournaments again, crazy haircuts in the
AFL are out, Borat is an outstanding comedy that we
all should watch, house prices continue to be out of
this world, Neale Daniher is in more strife than Tony
Mokbel to keep his job and holiday makers have
found that the rain fell mainly in Spain this Easter
Break.
PREVIEWS
Our first game is between two historic members of
the VAFA, where Elsternwick entertain Powerhouse
at the postage stamp. The hosts played finals in 2006
and desperately want another crack at that level. The
boys from Ross Gregory have some great players
and will find this transition to D3 well within their
grasp. I am tipping Elsternwick due to the home
fixture by just a gaggle of points.
Two many younger clubs in the league, Swinburne
take on Hawthorn at Rathmines Road – our first and
only Derby for the year! Derek Theone is back
coaching at the Razorbacks and it was under his
guidance that they won their 2003 flag. The boys
should welcome him back with a win !
Old Westbourne kick off their campaign at home
against Ivanhoe – a team boasting just one away win
last season. The visitors have to accept that some
days they will be the pigeon in this league, yet other
days – like in round one – they will be the statue.
The home team here by lots.
Victoria Park in Kew is the venue for Dave Witchell’s
men to tackle Latrobe. In the past, Kew have walked
the ‘thousand steps’ for inspiration but that won’t
translate into much come game day! The visitors
started 2006 in competitive fashion, but the wheels
came off in the second half and there were
‘latrocious’. I’m giving the red and black army the
benefit of the doubt here by a few goals.
Finally, West Brunswick who hope to be finals bound,
36
travel many miles to play
Monash. The Gryphons
will be hoping for an
upset but this will be
more like giving Dracula
the keys to the bloodbank. The visitors will take the
win and some percentage to boot.
In the two’s I see wins for the ‘House, the
Razorbacks, Old Westbourne, Latrobe and the
Magpies.

UMPIRES CORNER
by Steve McCarthy & Leah Gallagher
We’re back!!
We all did the rain dances over summer but the heavens just
wouldn’t open up. So after a two week delay due to ground
closures, we finally get to play “for real” today. We’re sure that
players and umpires alike will be that little bit fitter due to our
extended pre-season training. Here we go, bring it on!!
Web Site
We encourage all umpires to constantly check our web site at
http://www.vafaua.asn.au/ Our Webmaster Tim Sutcliffe has
done a fantastic job with this over the summer with a whole new
look to the site. All information is there if umpires are unable to
make it down to training, therefore missing out on all sorts of
news. Well done Tim, and thanks for starting the season as
Leah’s temporary replacement in Umpires Corner as she enjoys
an extended trip to the US.
VFL – Here we come!!
Congratulations to a few of our young umpires who have earned
positions with the VFL after trialling with them over summer.
Here’s a recent article compiled by Tim Sutcliffe for our website.
‘In a major triumph for the VAFA Umpires Association, eight
umpires have been promoted to the VFL for season 2007.
Field umpires: Rob O’Gorman, Daniel Silfo and Tim Saunders.
Boundary umpires: Adam Rogers and Matt Jenkinson. Goal
umpires: Lucas Robson, Michael O’Donnell and Daniel
Brooks. All made the VFL list for 2007. And Vaughan
Sidebottom was elevated to the VFL supplementary field
umpires list.
After a long and arduous pre-season campaign involving
training, fitness testing, coaching sessions and practice
matches, they were informed of their success by the State
Director of Umpiring at Victoria Park on Tuesday March 20th.
Brian Goodman, VAFA Director of Umpiring Operations, is
excited by the promotions and believes this is a significant
occasion for the VAFAUA and its members. “This is a real
feather in the cap for the VAFA Umpires Association. All
members of the VAFAUA should be proud of their contribution
to the development of these umpires. The encouragement on
the training track and the support in matches by fellow umpires
has made a significant contribution to the development of these
field, boundary and goal umpires.”
Goodman was also pleased that the umpire coaching and
development programs in the VAFA were achieving results. He
believes that the programs in place give young umpires every
opportunity to succeed.
Field umpires coach for the VFL
Development Squad, Adam
Davis, was full of praise for the
young umpires recruited from the VAFA. He was particularly
pleased with their skill development, fitness levels and maturity.
“The time spent at the VAFA has given these umpires an
excellent foundation for the start of their VFL careers.” said
Davis.
Davis also added “that the challenge now starts for all the
umpires and they must look for consistent performances to
progress at the VFL.”
Goodman’s attention will now turn to VAFA season 2007 and the
development of the next crop of young umpires with VFL
aspirations. But Goodman, like all members of the VAFA
Umpires Association, will keenly follow the progress of all these
enthusiastic umpires.’

Summer Social News & Congratulations
Back in November, goalie Kevin (Chilli) Segota wed long time
partner Jane in a beautiful wedding at Patterson Lakes with
quite a VAFA flavour. As well as a large number of umpires past
and present in attendance, the celebrant was none other than
VAFA legend Ken Bremner who for once in his life was a little
intimidated to be in a room full of umpires. Not forgetting the
irrepressible VAFA Executive and media megastar Tom Brain,
who was best man.
Well done to Rob and Kerryn Sneddon on the birth of Connor,
and Grant and Lisa Wardrop on the birth of Mitchell.
Anthony Simpson, who is currently the father of three boys is
soon to become the father of twins. Well done Simmo, we look
forward to the arrival in May. Possibly Anne (Mrs Simmo) will
be sending you off for a little bit of “surgery” soon?
Recruitment
For any players out there who may have found the pre-season
too long and painful (and you realise you just can’t do it
anymore), it’s not too late for a career change. Yes, the legs will
get a work-out, but you won’t suffer the physical body torture of

D4 SECTION
by Ed Sill
Finally, back into it! An extremely exciting D4 this year with
the usual supply of two sides relegated form D3, a
promotion from the Clubbies and some new boys in town.
It will be very difficult to get a form line on this one with at
least 4 rounds required before things started to settle.
Albert Park - One of the few sides for whom the drought
won’t cause as much grief as to others. Very competitive
last year and will be aiming for finals action.
Box Hill North - Last year’s big improvers and went close
to toppling the eventual premiers in the first semi. Expect
to progress further this year.
Bulleen - Slightly disappointing last year and will be
hoping for some of their veterans to have injury free
seasons. Will have their eyes on the finals but improvement
is needed.
Eley Park - Solid year after coming up from Clubbies.
Depth was a problem last year and will need to work on that
in 2007.
Eltham - Great home and away season before injuries and
form saw them get bumped out of the finals in straight
sets. Great coup in attracting Garrard as playing coach.
Premiership favourites.
Mt Lilydale - Back to D4 after a short recess in the
clubbies. Will be looking to consolidate first year back.
North Brunswick- Disappointing last year however some
strong rumours of recruiting coups over the summer. Will
be eyeing finals actions but a good start is a must.
Richmond - Made some solid strides last year where they
were competitive for most of the season. Word is further
improvement can be expected in 2007.
St Mary’s - By far the largest beating of drums are
emanating from the Saints. Star recruits apparently abound
with a goal kicking machine in the offing!! Will be aiming
to make the D4 stay a short one.
South Mornington - Welcome to the Ammo’s! Impossible
to get a form line through the Mornington boys so the first
few weeks should be interesting. Simply not sure.
Syndal Tally Ho – A tough off season for the Sinners as a
few stars try their luck elsewhere. Great club spirit will no
doubt help.
Uni High - Disappointing 2006 with the resultant dip to D4.
Word is plenty of numbers on the track with hopes of a
strong year. Strong finals contender.
To the games!
Uni High host Syndal with both sides having extremely
interrupted pre-seasons. Uni High for mine.
Box Hill North welcome new boys South Mornington in a
game that will give an early indicator to form lines. Always
42
like home sides early in
the season so Box Hill to
give off to a great start
with a win.
Two highly rated sides
meet when Albert Park
journey out to Eltham. The Turtles are keen to avenge for
their quick departure last year whilst the Falcons would
consider this one a bonus. Eltham to start the surge.
Local derby of sorts when Eley Park makes the short trip to
Bulleen. Both sides were mid table last year and desperate
to push up. Again, home team for me as Bulleen should
record a win.
The cellar dwellers of 2006 meet when Richmond hosts
North Brunswick. I felt North weren’t far of the mark early
last year before the year started to go pear shape.
Richmond made some improvements and looks likely to
continue in 2007. Not ready to confirm the improvement
just yet so might stick with North Brunswick.
Finally, St. Mary’s trek out to Mt Lilydale. No form line on
Mt Lilydale just yet however the Saints have the drums
beating loudly. Saints for mine.
Top four, Eltham, St Mary’s, Uni High and Box Hill North
with the Turtles my flag tip!
Please email me on ed.sill@locker.com.au with some club
information.

The VAFA Blood
Challenge is on again!
The aim of the challenge is to collect 1,000 blood donations during the footy
season. Winter is a time when the usage of blood is increased, but many people
are unable to donate due to colds and flu. That's why the donations of VAFA
players, friends and families are so important during this time.
The results of the 2006 Challenge are below. The top 3 clubs (by percentage) for
2006 were:
1. Caulfield Grammarians
38.1%
2. Peninsula OB
33.8%
3. VAFA UA
25.2%
Caulfield Grammarians were also winners of the VAFA Blood Challenge in 2005.
Can they make it 3 years in a row, or will Peninsula or VAFA UA beat them to
it this year?
The Challenge runs from this Saturday 28th April - Saturday 1st September.
Remember that if you donate before the start of June, you will be eligible to donate
TWICE during the challenge - DOUBLING YOUR CHANCE OF WINNING!
(Donors are eligible to donate blood every 12 weeks)
You have received some registration forms in your kit this year, so please distribute
these to your players to encourage them to donate. Extra forms are available at the
donor centre, in the Refreshment area.
Please ensure that each player fills in a form when they donate in order to
register their donation for your club. These completed forms should be left at
the donor centre.
It will be fantastic to have some new Captain Bloods on board this year - welcome!
And it's great to have many of you back again as Captain Bloods in 2007. Thank
you all for your commitment to help save lives (and maybe win some great prizes
along the way!)
If you have any questions about the challenge or would like to book in a group from
your club to donate, please contact Natalie Reid on 9694 0265.
Looking forward to working with you this year!

U19 SECTION
by Charles Beaton (U19’s 1),
Duncan Palmer (U19’s 2)
& Justin Aitken (U19’s 3)
U19 SECTION 1
Another season is upon us, lets be honest it’s going to
be hard to top last year, but we will give it a bash. Finally
the season looks set to start, and after months of warm
wind and fine dust, ten U19 Premier Division teams
begin the climb up Mount Vesuvius in search of the
elusive and coveted U19 section 1 flag, the “JS McCann
trophy”
As a famous DJ once said, “It’s a walk-off……..”
Who’s hot
De La La La – Great win last year over highly fancied
Xavs. Word is they are just as big and strong. Look out
for a very consistent model of the La this year.
OX – Always on top, I’d be ignorant not to mention the
“Desert War” of the premier competition. Look for them
to be grinding down the straight come seasons end.
Scotchy – Bit of a steam train last year. 18 goal win in
final practice match and this year lead by the capable
Sean Lieth. Look out for marked improvement this year
with plenty of direction by Coach Brendan “Buzz” Hart.
Marcellin – Smashed Collegians in the latest practice
match and word has it that coach Stephen Layt is
assembling a team fast enough to challenge this year.
Blackers – stepped up to the plate and taking on
Premier Division is a big step. I liken them to a young
racehorse that needs to be harnessed into the real deal.
All the ability in the world but a bit green, now lets see
what coach J Gray can do with it. Big chance fellas!
Who’s not
Give me a couple of weeks but could be a tough year for
the SKOBS and with no news from the Blues, I can only
assume they will be thereabouts again. Is that good
enough?
Down to the serious business and selection time. This
week I will go for De La Salle, St Bernard’s, Old Scotch,
Rupo and Xavs.
Its back, “the lock”. This week it will be Cats to beat the
Kangas – over 39.5. Get on it.
CORRESPONDENTS
On a brighter note, I will be relying heavily on feedback
this year. Please contact me with any correspondence,
best players and opinions. Until next week……happy
punting. Beatoncharles@hotmail.com (please note new
email address).
48
U19 SECTION 2
It has been a long build
up to season 2007 with
the drought creating a 6
month preseason. For
most U19’s this equates to four weeks rather than two.
This may mean that the U19’s this season will be better
prepared for the season's start, particularly teams with a
large university constituent. Grounds will still be hard
and will initially favor the quick running sides, whilst later
in the season, the sides with greater depth will come to
the fore.
Predicted Ladder after the Home and Away Season
Each year large changes in personnel make predictions
exceptionally hard in U19’s. Early feedback on Section 2
suggests that this could be a very even, competitive
section. Pre-season form has been mixed for most sides,
and although player quality appears strong, numbers
seem to be low across the board. Old Camberwell and St
Bedes Mentone, as premiers of their respective divisions
last year appear to be early favorites; however there is
also strong support for any number of other sides, with
Old Brighton a regular smokie in early correspondence.
Old Camberwell will be looking to premiership players
Caine Hillier (competition leading goal kicker), and Chris
Wright to help them to consecutive flags.
Looking into my crystal ball
Old Brighton
St Bedes Mentone
Old Camberwell
Collegians
Caulfield
Old Paradians
Old Melburnians
Whitefriars
Beaumaris
Banyule
Good luck to all this weekend, and I look forward to you
proving me wrong. However with only three responses
from club contacts thus far, tipping is more guess work
than reason.
My selections this week are Old Brighton by 13pts,
Caulfield at home in a 3pt thriller, Old Camberwell by 25
pts, Collegians away, and Old Parade by three goals.

I cannot watch 10 matches so please send me reports.
U19 NORTH
The stunning last quarter success of BulleenTemplestowe last season shows how quickly U19 form
can change. With three new teams in the section most
sensible judges would wait until at least round five
prior to making predictions. It is far more fun to
provide the coaches with some ammunition.
Predicted Ladder after Home and Away Season
All the early feedback suggests that last year’s finalists
Fitzroy, Aquinas and Old Xaverians will be the
yardsticks, whilst Rob Smith will again attempt to
guide the ‘Golds’ into the finals. However, the preseason form of the likes of Gareth Rees and David
Walsh at Therry Penola suggests that this section may
be far less predictable.
Fitzroy Reds
Therry Penola
Aquinas
Old Xaverians
Emmaus St Leos
St Bernards
Old Westbourne
De La Salle
North Old Boys St Pats
Rupertswood
I truly hope you can all prove me wrong, though I
would love to get one tip correct in my first round. Dry
grounds will suit sides with on-ball depth, so the
traditionally quick Rupo may set this trend from
Round 1.
solid 2006 but a promotion to Section 3 will see it
struggle to get the runs on the board regularly enough.
La Trobe University ($34) 8th – Cohesion, class and a
history of success means I see the Uni boys not coping
early before rattling home with some respectable wins
to lift it from the doldrums.
MHSOB ($11) 6th – MHSOB can be more
unpredictable than the quality of my fathers roast
dinners so they will be hot and cold all year and
therefore be a rollercoaster ride for all involved.
Oakleigh ($4.50) 3rd – I like the form of Oakleigh, who
seem to find a big goalkicker each year, play consistent
football which plagues several clubs (see MHSOB) and
have one of the best grounds in the competition.
Old Essendon ($9) 4th – Bomberland like their seniors
show much promise yet fail to deliver, maybe it’s the
year of the baby bombers but I don’t think it will be.
Old Ivanhoe ($4.50) 2nd – The Hoes are normally a
polished school unit who play a tempo brand of
football which will see them in the thick of it come
September.
Old Mentonians ($21) 7th – Freshly promoted
Panthers are the new kids on the block and some early
victories wouldn’t surprise but when it all settles down,
they will be on the receiving end more often than not.
Old Trinity ($4) 1st – Strong club determined to erase
memories of 2006 and with the lush training
surroundings of Bulleen, it should ensure the Eagles
had an un-interrupted pre-season and go into the year
as flag favourites.
Ormond ($7) 4th – The Monds will fly the suburban
club flag with Oakleigh and push the school clubs all
year long.
CORRESPONDENTS
Good luck and please send match reports to
Duncan.palmer@epworth.org.au or
deejaypalmer@bigpond.com
Round One Preview
Old Ivanhoe shape up against Bulleen Templestowe
and should prevail down at Chelsworth. Ormond head
out to Bundoora to meet La Trobe in a game that will
be a tight tussle with the visitors sneaking home two
goals. Bentleigh go to the postage stamp in the rounds
closest encounter where I think they will have a little
edge at the final siren over MHSOB and win by a goal.
The Panthers will cause the upset of the round by
rolling the Bombers. Finally in a possible grand final
preview, Oakleigh host Old Trinity in an early treat that
will establish some bragging rights with the home
team to win by three goals.
U19 SECTION 3
Here are all the early flag odds and ladder predictions.
Bentleigh ($51) 9th – The boys down the Nepean
Highway may have spent a bit too much time in Port
Philip Bay working on their tans and not enough on the
training track. They have the ability to surprise but will
need to conjure some magic to play finals.
Bulleen Templestowe ($101) 10th – The Ants had a
U19 – SOUTH
Here are all the early flag odds and ladder positions.
Ajax ($7) 3rd – Proud club with an elite setup will see
the Jacka’s cutting the mustard in 2007 with a lot of
their home games to be played on the vast expanses of
Sportscover Arena.
Hampton Rovers ($34) 6th – “We live by the seaside”
brings smiles to the faces of all as some of the more
My selections this week are Old Xavs at home by 6
points, Rupertswood by 2pts, Aquinas by 23, Reds in
a one point thriller, and De La Salle by 17pts.

interesting theme song lines, but the Rovers will need
to make Boss James a fortress as they look to lift on
their mid-table finish from 2006.
Mazenod ($5) 1st – The Nodders are my flag tip as
they have a strong mature-age senior team that won’t
rely on too many young guns allowing for a settled
outfit to push for the silverware.
Monash Blues ($4) 4th – Recruiting will determine
much of the Blues fortunes for the year and I think the
Clayton campus boys will sneak into the finals.
Old Haileyburians ($2.75) 2nd – Would have to be the
undeniable favourite after a 2006 where they lost no
games however with young Stefan Martin off to the
VFL and all the young jets will be blooded in the
seniors meaning instability may cost them pole
position in September.
Parkdale Vultures ($34) 8th – Great jumper, even
better ground and facilities, Parkdale would win the
flag on this alone but sadly four quarters need to be
played and they will win some but not enough.
Peninsula ($34) 7th – As close to interstate travel as
you an get in the VAFA, Peninsula need to snaffle a few
early wins to play finals but depth problems may rob it
of consistency and a birth in the top four.
Prahran-Caulfield ($21) 5th – The two-blues enter a
new Under 19 team that will take time to mature, much
like a bottle of Penfolds Grange, and that will take
many years.
Salesian ($251) 10th – Unlikely to field a team in
2007.
St Bedes Mentone Tigers ($51) 9th – The Tigers will
be a wait and watch in 2007. They do play there
Brindisi St Ground like champions much like the West
Coast play Subiaco, minus the drugs.
Round One Preview
The merged outfit of Prahran-Caulfield head out to
Mazenod and in what will be a tough initiation,
Mazenod will win by plenty. Monash Blues welcome
SBMT off Springvale Road to campus with a close first
three quarters before the Blues kick clear after orange
time to record a seven goal win. Vultures and Ajax are
both teams that aren’t known for being up and running
early so I flipped a coin, saw heads, Ajax to win. Old
Haileyburians meet Salesian with the Purple and
Blacks home comfortably. The bay boys face off here
with Hampton to ease the cost of the travel and return
with the points over Peninsula.

CLUB XVIII SECTION
by Norm Nugent
The long hot summer has passed at last and like
former times the football season starts late in April.
Nothing is new in football!!
All is well with our competition, which is bigger
than ever before with thirty six teams vying for the
right to participate on Sports Cover Arena. Former
teams return and new sides have entered for what
is hoped will be a season of fierce competition.
Section 1
Old Scotch have often started slowly and for this
reason I am selecting St Kevin’s to open the season
with a win.
Promoted Monash Blues host Mazenod, who did
not enjoy much success in 2006. Reports received
indicate a rejuvenated Mazenod and I tip them
today especially as University players are not noted
for their pre season dedication.
Old Melburnians, under new Coach, David
Landrigan, host De La Salle, who also have a new
mentor. I favour De La Salle, who are always a force
in this competition.
Prahran play Old Xaverians 2, whose player nucleus
will have benefited from last season’s experience in
the Section. The Prahran veterans, who can play
great football, are not noted for their early season
fitness and today Old Xaverians have a great chance
to start with a win. I will stay with Prahran and pick
them to win.
Reigning premiers, Old Xaverians face the
University Blues, who will field a lot of new players.
The Xaverians should win as the Students may take
time to learn each other’s strengths.
Section 2
University Blacks play St Bernards on the Crawford
56
Oval. St Bernards,
who just missed the
four in 2006 may take
the points after a
close tussle with the Blacks, who may take time to
settle into a cohesive unit.
The Caulfield Grammarians and Emmaus – St Leo’s
game should be a physical affair as neither side has
been noted for its pace over the years. At home I
lean to Caulfield, whose attention to training should
have been the more intense (B section as opposed
to D2 Section)
I select Fitzroy Reds to defeat Old Trinity at McHale
Stadium as the reds should be the more settled
side.
St Bede’s – Mentone Tigers played well in Section 1
last season and at home today they should defeat
Collegians many of whom will be journeying to
strange surroundings..
Two newcomers St Francis Xavier Beaconsfield and
Kew meet out at the S.F.X. College. The Kew team
has come from the joining of the V.A.F.A. Club with
North Kew. Given the long journey south east and
the fact the home players know each other from
school days, I select St Francis Xavier.
Old Brighton, keen to atone for a disappointing
2006 season travel to play Old Scotch at St James
Park. I suspect Old Brighton will be the more settled
side and as such should win.
Section 3
I select Beaumaris to open with a win over Therry
Penola, who disappointed last season.
Old Carey return after a season’s absence to play
Whitefriars, who have lost many players. Despite
V
VAFA RNd 1 07.qxd
26/4/07
11:04 AM
Page 57
their changed personnel, I select Whitefriars on the
small Victoria Road, Reserve.
Marcellin, who from reports have been training
solidly should win at home over newcomers, Old
Westbourne.
Fitzroy Reds play the returning Bulleen
Templestowe, who have not played in Club XV111
since Round 3 in1995. The “Bullants” will take time
to adjust to their new coach and so I select Fitzroy
Reds.
Two of last season’s disappointing teams, Old
Scotch and North Old Boys/ St Patricks play at St
James Park. I select Old Scotch purely because
they will be playing at home.
Two sides used to playing on a big ground, LaTrobe
University and Old Geelong play at Bundoora. Home
ground advantage should enable La Trobe to open
with a victory.
Another two newly formed sides in Oakleigh and
Box Hill North play on the Scammell Reserve. The
home ground advantage should enable Oakleigh to
open with a win.
Team Managers.
Please send me details of your game by noon
Monday so as I can provide a more meaningful
resume each week. E mail nknugent@bigpond.com
or telephone 9467 2857.
