Last week our president Bruce Me'E4-;_?L:: - wrote a lovely piece about myleaving the VAFA after 16 years as the Association's Chief Executive Officer .I have been absolutely overwhelmed by the emails and comments frompeople over the last couple of weeks since my announcement becamepublic knowledge. My request to the Executive and staff was that mydeparture be free of "fuss and fanfare", but I must say I was particularl ymoved by Bruce McTaggart's, Nick Bourke's and Andrew Langford-Jones' ST -;- ;:

comments at the Vote Count Night, as well as the many genuine best CHIEF EXECUTIVEwishes from many who were at the Vote Count. I can say 1s a OFFICER

"g=iazak you" .

I will explain today the reasons for my departure and my hopes for the future, and then I expecthe last weekend of the season to be "Phil-free" (apart from calling out the names of the players

io receive the premiership medallions) and we can all enjoy the excitement of the Amateur grandlinal weekend .I have always held the view that in such a vibrant and tren such as theVAFA, that to sit in the chair as the CEO until the old grey beard reaches the floor would not begood for the VAFA, and from first hand observations of similar situations in school environments,where I spent a fabulous first 16 years of my working life, and other sporting bodies, I made apersonal vow to myself long ago I would not let that happen in my case . I also wanted to take anopportunity, if one came along, to take on a fresh challenge that is different to the footballenvironment that offers weekends back for personal pursuits . Heavens, if I hadn't taken thisopportunity not many more would came my way - 54 next week, but let's keep that a secret !So I go to hopefully rediscover the joy of watching football matches in 2005, without the weightof "being on duty" and look fonvard to contributing in some way "post-2005" to the VA FA, eitherat the highest level or via a club involvement .Thank you to all who have made my job so fulfilling and challenging, and if I leave with the placejudged to be in as good a condition, or better than it was when I first walked in the door, I amtruly satisfied .

7antastic Vote Count and Presentation Night last Monday evening and it was great to see somany players rewarded for their efforts over the season . Well done to the club officials andplayers for representing themselves and their clubs so well . To the VAFA Executive and sponsors

tie night the quality night they always are -Stse

THE JOUR N AL OF THE \"C-- --

E~ Uni 1. oos set the tone for the day with

yet anot' .er ten goal plus shellacking .

Question: would they beat any A Gradesenior side outside the top four? I suspect

so . Anyway, in the big one, Bernards hadjust as much of the ball early on but justcouldn't convert. Near misses, posters,shanks, they were all there and a frustratedside went in at half time 7 points in arrears .

As is their way, the Blues proceeded to turnup the wick and blew the game apart . RossYoung was scintillating, Jimmy Scambler a'major nuisance up forward and MarkPaterson was damaging around the packs .

What a team! Bernards looked absolutelyTommy Knacl .ergeemered by the end .

Dam),- . Lucas Fielding and ChrisMitchell spent time on the bench andDan Jordra,= was battered from pillar to postby some pretty heavy bodies (though he stillplayed OK did big Dan and pretty muchbroke even with the impressive Jim Ilayter,who plays a lot like Mal Michael at

Brisbane) . Meanwhile, while the Bernies'huffed and puffed, the students looked asthough they could go another 10 rounds .

ls t semi finalFrom all reports, Andrew Ramsden playe d

what was perhaps his greatest ever game onSunday and that's saying something. i"'-

`fess up; I didn't think Trinity were up to itand they made me look like a complete anutter mug. Too many midfield options, tootight down back and Ramsden was toodominant both in the ruck and up forwardas they careered away to a ten goal win .

Significantly, some of their less heraldedplayers stood up, Scott Krakouer, Toby VanDer Venne and Lucien Deane Johns were allin the mix as they recorded a win as

significant as any of those B Gr : de flags .

As has become a trend in =~-°==1 weeks,

fell a~ay. T11,usual mainsta, . :-;stood up in themiddle but theyjust couldn't generate anything from their

key forwa*ds . They're the sort of team that

will st : trz . - . :ig next week, so expect themto "Oe a major force in 2005.

~..~--- . . , . . . .: . .- . "S

For g : .< Old Trinity have toiled andplugged away in the lower grades, risingthrough the ranks steadily, collecting astring of minor flags along the way . In

recent years, they have been thereabouts in!A Grade, never quite clinching an A Gradespot, but always searing the living daylightsout of the marquee teams . Last week theyplayed their first ever final but questions

persisted . Did they have enough decentdefenders? Were they too reliant on theirskipper? Were there to many loose cannonsin the side? And were they simply content toplay second fiddle to the big boys? Yourstruly was as surprised as anyone when theyblew Marcellin away; I thought they were

pretenders .

Today they loom as a genuine threat toprogress to an A Grade final . They are inform, have a full complement of players tochoose from and their opponents lookdecidedly shaky. Last Sunday, Bernardswere run off their feet, seemed to lack paceand some of their big names were real'-rshaken up .Having said that, there's just one little thi nI can't get out of my head ; a demolition thattook place in West Essendon on the Fifth ofJuly. That day, St Bernards kicked 31goals, Dan Jordan took about two dozenmarks, and Trinity's backmen were shel -shocked . Yes they had a host of players outand yes they evened up the ledger later inthe year with a hard fought draw on aground in a shambolic state but they mayjust struggle a tad with the guns from thPit .So much at stake today, such an appetisingcontest, Bernards by two goals but don't besurprised if Trinity pull off the most famouswin in their 50 year history .BouquetsThanks to those who made this columnpossible, particularly Col Glover at De La,Matt Vernal at Whitefriars, Joe Sturrock atUni and Brett Connell and Phil Stevens aheadquarters . Thanks also to those peoplewho took the liberty to have a crack at me,whether by email or in questionable pubs ; itreally does brighten up my day and getspeople talking about what is a well run andinteresting competition . Special thanks tothe walking rain cloud known only as MrPet (first name Mup?) who crawled out fromunder his rock to email me approximately750 times per day with his dastardly dribbleand who pretty much threatened imminentArmageddon anytime I tipped against hisclub . Enjoy your summer Mr Pet ; we'llresume hostilities when autumn comes . . .

To the victors go the spoils, congratulations to JohnFogarty, Dave Murray, Tony Miller, Tim Hart, RobGross, Luke Mahoney and all the St Kevins players,officials and supporters on your victory on Saturdayand the promotion back into A Grade that goes withit . A terrific performance after being relegated at theend of 2003 to re-group and go straight back upwithin 12 months .

F _ : . .How heartbreaking it must have been for the StBedes Mentone-Tigers coaches, players andsupporters when the final siren sounded the end oftheir season last Sunday. So close but yet so far. Butas Russell Barnes was heard to say we gave it ourbest shot and just weren't quite good enough . Youcan ask no more than that .Old Ivanhoe are happy to admit that they used upall their get out of jail free cards as they looked welland truly gonecvith 5 minutes to go, the Tigers hadall the run, Luke Wintle and all the big guys weretaking marks and they had a bench full of injuredplayers . But the Tigers squandered a fewopportunities kicking 4 points in a row to give theHoers a chance . Still 9 points down with about 2minutes to play saw Mark Luxon take the mark ofthe day and goaled to bring the margin back to 3points . Somehow the ball again found its way intothe safe hands of young Luxon and as he slotted itthrough the middle the Brown and Whites hadbooked themselves an appointment withSportscover.The smaller players of the Hoers kept them in thegame with Stewart Low absolutely dynamite, LukeLochran played a memorable 100th, Johnny Stevenshad racked up 20 possessions by half time, ScottCuratolo yet to put in a bad one in 04 was king ofthe packs and the defence led by Jarred Gieschenand Chris Quinlan were rock solid . For the Tigers noone was better than little Michael "Mouse" Wintle, hereceived great support from James "The Stud" Drurywhile Osbourne was again a revelation up forward.In the Ressies the Robbie Gross inspired SKOBSwon a very hard fought battle against a verydetermined Old Brighton outfit . Ben Dollman put uphis hand for a return to Senior ranks, with a BOGperformance, receiving good support fromCampagna, Katavolous and Jarred O'Keefe . For theTonners £7-it Reid was outstanding as was BigPezza, Chris McNicholl had a crack and young

Brendan Crilly wasalso good .SECOND SI-A FINALAs has been the normfor any clashe sbetween those two sides in 2004 St Levine and

'i s turned on another tight encounter.wins took the early lead and had opened up anbreak until an unfortunate send off allowed

! .ions back into the game as they kicked 5i : savered goals to have the scores almost level atL ng break .A t? ^zt third quarter ensured that the fight to be thefirst into A Grade would go down to the wire .Collegians kicked the first one of the last to take a 7point lead, until the SKOB Machine got the wheelsinto motion started to play the free flowing footy forwhich they are renowned and came away with a 5goal victory against the gallant Lions, who live tofight another day.Mark Brady and Luke Mahoney used their final'sexperience to advantage, little Tommy Simpsonshowed poise and maturity beyond his yearswinning a heap of hard ball, Mulgrew was handywith 3 twins, Paul O'Keefe and Dave Sheehy rocksolid up back. Chard was classy, Bowles hard at it,and Perrett tough was the story of the Skobbers day .Best thing was they won despite only having 17 menfor half an hour.NOBS set the tone for the day by beating Collegiansand put some spark into a disappointing season forthe club by advancing to the GF.

PR E VIEWAnother crackerjack game awaits us today asCollegians and Old Ivanhoe slug it out atSportscover Arena for the right to have a crack at StKevins and the promotion to our premier section thatgoes with it . Two pretty evenly matched sides whoboth enjoy playing on the wide expanses of the oldElsternwick Park.Both sides have a healthy respect for each other andno stone will be left unturned in the quest for victory .One has to admire the performances of both club's toget so far this year but unfortunately at about 4 .30this afternoon only one of them will live to fightanother day. Who will it be??? I don't really know.Old Ivanhoe have won 7 in a row now so face a bigtest to keep that momentum going today, althoughsome of their stars are pretty fresh not having playedthat many games . The Lions although disappointedlast week were far from disgraced and will be in thegame for a long time. I don't like picking against anyside coached by Pat Hawkins but have to stick to myprediction of a few weeks ago that it will be a StKevins Old Ivanhoe Grand Final .In the Reserves I reckon the spur of joining theirSeniors and Under 19's in the GF will see SKOBS getover the line allowing Grossy to partake in someCheers and BeersPRESS CORRESPONDENTSGoodbye and thank you to Andy Mullet and DaleCollins for their efforts and reports during the year .Just one more week to go for the rest of us .

palming and incredible stamina has seen him take onsometimes 2 or 3 opponents week after week, withnever a complaint, an absolute coaches dream . Lukealso tivas a member of the 2001 team and hopefully afew more premierships to come.Kane Theodossi has come up from the reserves thisseason and cemented his spot as a dangerous smallfonvard . Ever the opportunist he has made theopposition pay if they don't keep constant watch onhim, with some of the best goals this year, which cancome from the most incredible angles and situations.Chanz Crowley has taken on some of the biggestnames in sections A & B in his position at fullbackand more times than not came out trumps. Alwaysseemingly to have that bit of extra time to manoeuvre,Chanz is one of the modem style attacking defenderswho don't mind streaming down the ground to roostthe ball deep into the forward line. Also a member ofthe 2001 team, Chanz has gained Vic representation

and will no doubt be one of our key defenders foryears to come.

Well done all.

Power of a Negative ImageThinking is a complicated process. A process that can help you

find a solution to a problem, or a process that can bring about thevery outcome you hope to avoid .Over the past few years golfers have been advised to have a strong

pre-shot routine . This routine usually includes feeling the swingor putt, seeing the flight of the ball and several other elementsdesigned to separate the thinking from the hitting aspects of ashot. The some applies to other set routine skills such as kicking

for goal . You only have to watch Matthew Uoyd preparing for hisset shots at goal to know what I mean. Unfortunately, many

players include some very destructive aspects in their pre-shot

routine. One of the most damaging of these is the negative image .

Remember that every time you think of what you want to avoid,you practice making that mistake . The way the mind processesinformation makes this nasty occurrence happen. Remember the

old joke about "Don't think of a purple covi', and, of course, youhave to think about that purple cow. You have to think about

what you don't want to think about because part of the process isto clearly identify the subject, the purple cow . Of course, a cow is

an object and not an action. If you think of an action, especiallyone that has a strong emotion attached to it, your mind willautomatically begin to recall and/or create the experience .

Never ask yo ' to do what you don't want to do . This means

that when yoi '~ of something your mind must process the

thought down tc . he fibres of your muscles. When you think of awater hazard, and hitting it into the water, your mind processesthe thought and you must mentally PRACTICE hitting the baIlinto the water. It doesn't matter if you want it or not . If you think

it, you practice it . Avoid the thoughts that force you to practicewhat you do not want to do. The best way to do this is to occupy

A .F C, (~; ' '/,% )I V.A.EA.

"Your Coaches' Association "

your thoughts with what you want . Focus on the centre of thegoals (pick a specific target behind the goals), focus on the feel ofa good goal kick, focus on the exact spot where you will put the

ball. In the early stages of shot preparation, look up the field, atthe target and where the mark is, but when you are ready toactually take your kick your thoughts must focus on the positive,

on success. When it's time to kick the ball avoid all thoughtsand/or images of failure .Do not use thoughts such as: 'Watch out for the opposing players

on the mark" . "Keep it out of the dead pocket", "I sure hope I don'tkick it there again ." or "My last shot was far too short" . These

negative thoughts force you to think about the very thing that you

want to avoid . When you think it, you practice it . Confidently hold

the image of the target and take your kick .It would be ridiculous to believe that you can avoid or eliminateall of your negative images or thoughts. You do not need to fear

having these images or thoughts, they will occur. What you canlearn to control is the effect that the images have on your game .

You do this by controlling when you have them . This means that

you control the sequencing of your thoughts . If. as you prepare to

kick at the goals, you remember badly shanking a similar kicklast week, don't panic . Simply remember to take an extra fiveseconds and immediately go to a positive image and recall a

strong feeling of success . Refocus your mind on the target andexecute the kick with all the confidence a good shot at goal

requires . Never let a negative image or thought be your last imageor thought before you kick. You will probably get what youmentally ask for, so don't ask for the negative, ask for success .

In 2004, MHSOB set themselves the task ofan immediate return to B Grade competitionand the minor premiers were rewarded fortheir stellar season, by halting the braveAshers campaign and creating a Grand Finalclash of salivating proportions .

PRELIAUNARY FINAL REVIEW

Biblical type rain on the Friday night, meantfor slippery conditions at Sandy and it wasthe Ashers, who made the early running,booting the opening goals of the contest . Thissparked the Unicorns . into action and withMcCully and Fairchild repelling the Monashoffensive forays, the Highs midfield andforwards began to assert themselves . Inspiredby Smyth, Smith and Main, a third termMonash surge was quelled by three lateMHSOB majors, setting up a match winningadvantage. As gallant as The Bluespersevered, they were unable to reproducethe final quarter scoring spree of the previousweek and with MHSOB's Bamert and Rosmanproving lively up forward, they always lookedthe more polished and were deserving victors .

COMPETITION AWARDS NIGHT

MHSOB dynamo Matthew White will behoping to cap off a wonderful individualseason, with premiership honours, afterclaiming the competition's highest award by asingle vote . White polled 22 votes to eclipseGeorge Smyth from Monash, with Parkdale'sMichael Dixon third .

The Unicorn player had a busy eveningcollecting awards, also being recognised asone of the grade's MVP's, along with MonashBlues' Christian Gregory and Caulfield'sAndrew Will, who were all worthy winners ofthe prize, judged by opposition coaches .

In an outstanding achievement, OldCamberwell's Nigel Credlin and MHSOBEwan Thompson were both selected in the All

Ajax's JulianKirzner was

with 89 and Caulfield defended its title ,acknowledged as the leading sharpshooter,

claimed in 2003, by again being the umpire s

oice, for C section's, Most Disciplined Club .

J-r T BIG ONE

It's fitting that the teams who perched formuch of the season in places one and two areplaying off for the pennant . Whilst winningthrough to the Grand Final is a magnificentaccomplishment for the club and guaranteespromotion next year, the players themselveshave slugged through gruelling preseasonsessions and the bitterly cold wintry trainingnights for the dream of premiership glory . Thesupporters will revel in the victory, but todayis for the players and both the MHSOB andCaulfield Grammarian line-ups are hungry tofulfil their preseason imaginings .

The ledger stands at two to one in favour ofthe Unicorns, with the Fielders coming fro m

behind a fortnight ago, when the Highskicked themselves out of a potentially matchwinning lead . Over the three encounters,both have snagged 40 goals, so it's fair to say,little separates these teams . If the day is fine,we should be in for another sensationalcontest . The Unicorns boast enormous A andB Grade experience, that could prove vitalwhen the game is tight . The Fielders playwith great passion and perseverance andtheir tackling was a feature of their victory inthe second semi . The side that takes the halfchances will prevail in what promises to be afast paced, free flowing contest of amateurfootball . The scribe has not done too well in

Always something that comes up in thehurly-burly of the game which has peoplemomentarily (sometimes longer)scratching heads . When a player is "red-carded", this means he has been reportedand is to be off the ground for 15minutes, the time off the field onlycommences when an official of theoffending team reports to the timekeeperswho note THAT time . The timekeepers willthen advise the official, UPON RE!@UEST,of the expiration of the 15 minutes ofactual playing time whereupon theoffending player or other player may takethe field through the interchange area .

If an umpire "red cards" a player andwishes him to be off the field for theremainder of the game (and cannot bereplaced), the umpire is to call over theoffending player's runner and ask him toadvise the coaching bench of this fact. Ofcourse this event should only happen inthe most extreme of circumstances .

Amateur Footballer D I Section, Grand Finals

Congratulations to Coach Greg Whitcroft & Team,Rick Brockwell & Committee, and all Supporters,on Banyule joining Blacks in C Section next year!They've done the hard yards this year and have thetalent coming through to be worthy contenders at

that level . Well done also to Ormond's mercurial

Michael Miller for taking out the 2004 L.S . Pepper

Medal for the Section's B & F !Many thanks to our Finals gate team of Michael,Alex, plus Chris, Warwick & Nick (the latter threebeing Caulfield Grammarians U19s, courtesy oftheir Coach and VAFA legend Geoff Reilley!) whohave handled everything with stylish aplomb .

Thanks also to my fellow Duty Officers John Belland Keith Sharkie, with whom it is always a

privilege to serve !

PRE : Box Hill City Oval

Banyule v Fitzroy RedsThe rain dump on Friday night left the uncoveredwicket square the consistency of black clag, andthe practice nets area on the flank in front of themachinery shed cum visiting coaches perch was

ankle deep in water. The rest of the ground held upquite well and by the time the Senior game started

an 85% good footing rating applied . However, fromthe first bounce, it was obvious that the Bears weremore at home on it than were the Reds, &, equally,the latter were in trouble countering the centrebounce drive of Dave Williams' hits outs to the hard

running Brad Willmore . This became more

pronounced in g2 when the defensive dash of DaveGayfer & Adam Dooley dampened the Reds scoringopportunities while at the other end LukeO'Connell, Jayson Egan, Lorenzini & Co. gave the

Bears a 32 point buffer which they built into the

final 76 point final margin. There was no question

that the intensity of the Reds' heroics in theirenergy sapping lst Semi win had left them drainedfor this game, and, while they never ceasedcompeting, they were unable to counter the

pressure applied by the Bears . Brad Willmore

dominated the middle throughout for Banyule, PaulGloury & Adam Dooley kept Ben Atherton & VinnieCahill quiet all day, BIG Dave's contribution was

priceless as usual, -while Jason Plant and Dave

Gayfer were effective f

stoppers andrebounders. Redsmentioned Abbott,Rawlins, & Cianci i ntheir top performers, but on the whole had an offday, without that detracting at all from their fineachievement of playing in a D 1 Preliminary Final in

their promotion year.

RESERVE : Ormond v Old Mentonian sThe Panthers turned on a 5 goal Q2 to take a handylead in a low scoring match and somehow outscrambled the Monds in a nail biting Q4 to win aspot in the Flag play offl AND, by the predicted onepoint margin do you mind!!! The midfield trio ofRicky Ironmonger, Daryl Stevens, & Brendan Russokept the Panthers' opportunities flowing all day .

and Matthew Austin again toiled mightily in the

Ruck . Chris Telley was effective through the

middle for Ormond, while BP bookends, BradCormack & Jacob Dale, were their customaryefficient selves, & winger Shane Metz also did well .

GRAND FINALS : Box HillUniversity Blacks v BanyuleSo the big day has arrived, and it is great that D1is once more back at Box Hill because it is such a

superb venue for Amo finals . Weatherwise, it lookslike being a repeat of last week with rain overnight

Friday/Saturday then clearing for the matches .The firmer the footing the better it will suit theBlacks, but, it has to be said, Blacks are 19-0 thisyear after playing on & in all manner of groundsand climates, so they are quite adept at coping.One advantage Banyule could have is, that theyhave played on BHCO, whereas Blacks have not,but since that doesn't seem to have worried UBthrough the H & A games it may not be asignificant factor. The Grand Finalists are the twohighest scoring sides in the competition this yearwith UB averaging 114 points from 19 games, andthe Bears 101 from 20 . Points scored againstfigures are UB = 59, Bears = 71 . So, on points forand against averages YTD, Blacks rate as a 4 goalsbetter side. Which, in a GF, means 4/5 of 5/8 ofdiddlysquat! What is critical, is control of themidfield, and there we have magnificent contests instore today. The two best ruckman, ChrisSandiford-UB, and Dave Williams-Ban, and thetwo best midfielders Andy Costello-UB and BradWillmore-Ban! The Bears don't perhaps have a setof round the packs beavers like the Wog Squad ofBevaqua, Vilella, & Sibilia, but they do have theTaylor Bros, Cantwell, & Demetriou any one ofwhom could wreak havoc if left unattended .Interestingly, for the two highest D1 score kickers,only Sean Lorenzini-Ban features in theSharpshooters list, so neither side is overly relianton any particular forward . What will be a worry forBanyule is the field kicking of this Blacks team: itis long and precise, so they move the ball furthe r

faster and with less effort than their opponentshave this year. However, whichever way you lookat it, Blacks have been the outstanding unitthroughout and have to be favoured to win asensational game (weather permitting) by 2-3goals.

RESERVE: University Blacks v Old MentoniansCan the fairy tale fina's run of the Pantherscontinue? Of course it can, but Blacks' percentagefor the year is more than double that of theKeysborough tribe and it would be a shock ofworrying proportions if UB lost today .

KNITWEARbi ,

Old Carey overcame their "Central Reserve Curse" scintillating 14-goal-on Saturday with an overwhelmingly convincing 81 to-three second-halfpoint victory over Old Geelong at Glen Waverley . last week and inThe first quarter was quite a tight affair, with each doing so erased theside only registering a single goal apiece, defenc eruling early on . An interesting ploy was initiated byOld Geelong, starting glamour full-forward MarkVickers-Willis in the centre square, but maybe thisrendered them impotent up forward. Respectivefull-backs Stinchcombe (OG) and Munro (OC)asserted their authority during this period . OldCarey dominated the first half of the second termand had skipped away to a five goal lead, with ex-Richmond AFL man James "Jogger" White and (promotion) means a lot for the club," Old CareyAndrew Kent causing mayhem . However, the OG sresponded positively to the gauntlet being thrown to finally moving forward ." With promotion achievedthem, as they kicked the last three goals before halftime to close the gap to 13 points . At this time, Iwas pretty pleased with my prescience, havingtipped this encounter to be a thriller, but I doubtanyone would have expected what was to follow.Opening the third quarter against a slight breeze,Old Carey the game apart, kicking nine goalsto three, st seven unanswered, before OldGeelong scr : :,Dled to stem the tide . Al Stewart-Holmes was particularly impressive during thisspell for the Panthers, as was Nic Everett in theruck, W110 ouipu ;.,toa +.F,, Oc'o IIuiay Legua formost of the day. "Jogger" White again was rampant.After that third quarter blitzkrieg, the final stanzawas something of an anti-climax, also Old Careystill meant business, skipper Al Parton imploringhis troops to keep pushing and finish off the game .The Panthers kicked five goals four to the OGs sixbehinds, with the usual suspects accumulatingpossessions at will, and Carey hardman ChrisBattle continued to display his trademark tenacityand ferocity . In the end, the final margin of 81points was a fitting tribute to an Old Carey unit thatwas fitter, quicker and more committed on the day .Unfortunately, there's not a lot positive to say aboutOld Geelong on the day, also Cannon, Stinchcombeand Betts were probably the pick of their players .As for any Bulleen Templestowe people watching, Iwould be surprised if they weren't impressed, and Ireckon they have a very tough match on their hands

. What Andrew Says:The Backgroun

d Old Carey joined Bulleen Templestowe in D1 nextseason after blowing Old Geelong away with a

painful memories lingering from their insipid finalsfailures against West Brunswick last year and theBullants a fortnight ago . The Panthers spent lastweek facing the galling prospect of bowing out instraight sets but can now look forward to theprospect of celebrating a premiership . But thePanthers viewed victory today as being lessimportant than their preliminary final win whichensured promotion to D-grade next year. "It

the Panthers are now hoping the players have theirefforts rewarded with a premiership . "Sometimesyou think that the promotion game is for the cluband the premiership would be for the players,"Raftopoulos said . While Old Carey's Grand Finalplans were hatched prior to the season it was notuntil the Bullants showed rapid mid-seasonimprovement that they started looking at finalsaction and only in the last six weeks has that aimbeen lifted to winning a flag. With 11 players new tothe club this season Bullants coach Steve Easton, asix time premiership coach in the Diamond Valleyleague, said the improvement was due to a"settlingdown thing" and a combination of playerscommunicating better on the field and his side'simproved on-field organisation .

the evenness of his side and said up to 10 playerscould win the club's best and fairest award thisseason. 'That's amazing really," he said .PreviewAfter defeating the Panthers a fortnight ago theBullants are entering today's clash as underdogsbut full of confidence . "There's no doubt Carey arefavourites but we'll win," Easton said. But Easton'sconfidence should not be mistaken for arrogance ."We've seen them three times and they've beenreally terrific twice," Easton said of Old Carey . "Thethird time (two weeks ago), it gave us a fair bit ofhope that we could get the better of them ." ThePanthers forwards struggled two weeks ago but theinclusion of the super-skilled James White todayshould improve their goal-scoring stocks. White wasone of three players Easton said the Bullants wouldneed to keep a watch on with the other two beingmidfield dynamo Andrew Kent and athleticruckman Nick Everett. But Easton also rated "veryhighly" the Panthers' defence . "They're verydisciplined and don't make too many mistakes atall," he said . But if they do then the Bullants,through Robert Williams and Jordan Wise who havekicked more than 90 goals between them andskipper Greg Chivers, have forwards who can makethem pay on the scoreboard .But the Bullantsforwards could be starved of opportunities if OldCarey trio Everett, Kent and competition best andfairest Allister Parton control the midfield . Combinetheir skills with the pace of wingman Chris Angusand Nick Vasilopoulos' run from the backline andthe Bullants could well be run off their legs if theyare unable to reduce the game to a tough and hardcontest . But the Panthers of 2004 unlike theirpredecessors have shown they can slug out hardwins . Panthers' supporters will be hoping they can

show their new-found toughness again todaybecause if they don't, then the Bullants will wintheir first premiership in 21 years .

Firstly, it would be remiss not to thank Phil 20 minute mark.Stevens on his wonderful work at the V.A .F.A. McGovern was alsoSpeaking for a personal viewpoint, my club alwaysfelt great support from Phil and this certainlyhelped in the development of the club . Thanks,well done and good luck Phil !ReviewPreliminary FinalAnother final played under clear skies and inwindless conditions . Heavy overnight rain hasresulted in plenty of surface water, an issue theastute coaches no doubt did some planningaround! Rupertswood went into the game undersome enormous pressure . The thought of beingbundled out in straight sets in consecutive yearswould have weighed heavily on the club . St Johnson the other hand would have attacked the gameunder the 'nothing to lose' mentality . With a younglist, the Jocs year developed rather than explodedand they might not have had the expectationsplace upon them that Rupo did! The typicalfrenetic start to the game with a Rupo goalanswered with three from the Jocs . Great signsearly for the Jocs, Chalk, Arnold and Pattersonwere starring in the midfield and a few ominoussigns were showing . Credit to Rupo though, thenerves appeared to settle and they quietly workedtheir way back into the game . Hewitt was provingto be a handful up forward for Rupo . Close at thefirst break . The second stanza went the same wayas the first. Jocs got some early goals before Rupoonce again worked their way back into the game .The dangerous Diaz began to have an effect for theJocs whilst Brennan was also damaging upforward for Rupo, who led by 4 points at half time .The third quarter proved to be the deciding phase .The Rupo backline became like a fortress,rebounding consistently of the half back line. Theystarted to ram on the goals and at the 20 minutemark it looked almost all over. The Jocs hit backhowever to get within three goals at the finalchange (a poster on the siren almost making it twogoals) . With the likes of Powell, Spinner andPlummer dominating, Rupo got out to whatappeared to be an unassailable lead by about the

providing a wonderfulspark off the bench as he racked up possessionsin the second half. Once again, the Jocs hit backand almost unbelievably got to within 6 pointswith a few minutes to spare. A great steadier forRupo meant some breathing space and ultimatelypromotion!Cracker of a game, well done to Rupo and nodoubt the Jocs will be back next year !PreviewGrand FinalFittingly, the best two teams during the home andaway season will fight out the Grand final . Welldone to both clubs, the amount of behind thescenes work done is always immense and therespective Presidents Rob Morrice (R) and BarryAlexander (0) are to be congratulated on helpingsteer their clubs to the Grand Final .

The semifinal win of the Krushers was good and whilst itdidn't prove beyond doubt that they had the Rupomeasure, it did go a long way down that track . Thethree big guns at Oakleigh are no doubt themercurial Mackenzie, A Kitts and CaptainBromley. All three are capable of match winningperformances and will be the subject of plenty ofhomework from the Rupo brains trust during theweek . Off course, it is not all about the three bigguns. The Krushers had plenty of contributorsduring the year with the ever reliables in Britt,Furnell and Way leading the way . Hogan alsoproved to be a star on semi day . His ability to winplenty of close in footy served him and his teamwell . Rupertswood have been very even during theyear but will be looking for one of their guns tohave a cracker on the big day .

Very hard to call . Both sides haddominant years and there are very few obviousweaknesses. I think that Rupo need someone to'seize the day' for them to win . Whilst there are anumber of candidates, Oakleigh have a number ofproven finals performers . Expect Rupo to be infront at the last break but the Kruhsers to wearthem down in the last quarter to win !

BeiersdorfAustralia Lt d

Congratulations to both Old '(: esiLaurne an d Kew ontheir promotions to D3 . They were clearly the two bes tsides in the competition for 2004 and their promotionis just reward for the hard work of the players andcoaching staffs. Well done also to Craig Mahony o nwinning the D4 Best and Fairest Award and Afri mOdza for getting so close to causing a huge upset.Congratulations also to Justin Horsburgh on takingout the goalkicking . Finally, well done to Horsburgh,Tinetti and Baker on their Coates MVP awards . To allmy regular readers, I would like to thank you for yourinterest and if I happen to be promoted along with theWarriors next year, I wish all those remaining in D4next season all the best in 2005 .ReviewSenior Preliminary Final - Kew vs St .MasysIt was a match that lived up to expectations withregards to the closeness of the result, however, thepressure of the occasion resulted in very low scoringand inaccuracy in front of goal. It was a scrappyopening with neither side able to gain the ascendancyas the Saints, through the good work of Wright andDwyer, went into the first break a goal up . In thesecond quarter, however, St .Marys completelydominated proceedings but they were not able toconvert this dominance onto the scoreboard as theKew defence stood tall under the barrage . The matchthen changed complexion after half time, and it wasthe premiership quarter that saw Kew draw level asthey put through four majors for the quarter as Tinettiand Lafranchi lifted a gear. In a tense final quarter,Kew seemed to do enough to jump ahead early, but theSaints refused to lay down. Ultimately though, it wasnot to be as Kew booked a ticket to the big dance by amere 4 points .Reserves Preliminary Final - Old Westbourne vsElsternwickIt was perhaps one of the biggest boil-overs of theseason as Old Westbourne registered a memorablevictory against the more highly fancied Elsternwick.The Wickers managed to go with the determinedWarriors for most of the first quarter, however, theybegan to fall away in the second, as Warriors Gerace,Bartolo and Moore dominated. With a lead three goallead at the major break, the underdogs managed tokeep the Wickers at bay and in a fitting tribute to clublegend, Daniel Slattery in his 100th game, Westbournejoined their senior counterparts in the Grand Finalwith a sensational 20 point win .PreviewSenior Grand Final - Old West? :,irr_:z : ;rjc~ ; Kew

To quote an oldcliche, two weeks in along time in football,and today, Kew will behoping that cliche willring true . Three time sthis year, OldWestbourne have met Kew in season defining matches,and three times this year, Old Westbourne haveprevailed against the premiership favorites .Having been at all three of those encounters, I havenoted a common theme in every match . Kew beginwell, and look as though they could run away with thematch . Their taller players dominate early, utilise theirsuperior aerial strength and bombard the Warriordefences . But in all three of these matches, the Warriordefence has withstood the assault . The moreinteresting trend though, is the fact that the Warriormachine does not click into gear until after half time,and it has been in the final quarter that the Warriorshave used their fitness and superior leg speed to runover the top of a tiring Browns line-up.So we enter today's match pondering the two veryimportant questions . The first is as to whether Kewcan again start well, but somehow covert thisdominance onto the scoreboard . If they fail to do thisearly, you can rest assured that the Warrior fitness willprevail . The second is as to whether the young Warriorteam will be able to stand up to the extra pressure ofthe club's first grand final or will the crumble like somany before them? The answers to these questions

will go a long way in determining who will win today'smatch .There is no doubt that Browns coach Rohan Dohertywould have noted his team's shortfalls in their lossesto the Warriors, and as any good team will do, they willlearn from their mistakes . Therefore I would expecteverything but the kitchen sink to be thrown at theWarriors to open up an early lead, and this is wheresome may expect the Warrior young-guns to falter .However, while I believe Tinetti and his troops will kickahead early, be ready after half time for the inevitableWarrior charge . In what will become a very closematch, I am sticking with my heart and predicting mybeloved Old Westbourne to destroy my pre-seasonprophecy of a Kew premiership and close out afairytale season with a memorable 5-point victory .Reserve Grand Final - Kew versus Old WestbourneToday's game is an interesting match up given thatKew has thumped the Warriors twice this season,however, given last week's result, the Browns knowthey are a team not to be taken lightly.Warrior coach Steven Leitch has worked miracles withhis side this season, reviving the careers of many olderWarriors whilst elevating the stature of many of hisyounger chargers . However, reversal of their previoustwo defeats is a mountain I think may be just toomuch for the determined Warrior outfit .In Reserves football, everyone knows if you get in frontearly, it is rare that you will lose. And today this maybe the Warriors downfall . I expect the experience of theawesome Kew juggernaught to get the better of theWarrior line-up of which none have experienced aGrand Final before. Before they know what has hitthem, they will be five goals down and will not recover .As such, I am picking Kew to make it a big double asthey beat a gallant Westbourne by 29 points .

Section One - Review entertained us allPreliminary Final throughout the

An absolute thriller at Parkdale to near-complete what season, and many L_

has been one of the tightest section-one seasons inrecent times, St Kevins coming back from a forty pointdeficit to defeat Werribee by six points . In a game thatlooked all but over in the third term Coach Obee's sidecompleted one of the best comeback victories of theyear, eclipsing their round two effort against Scotchthat has already entered club folklore . On the verge ofcrashing out of the finals' series with a 0-2 record,Obee played his trump card to full effect movingO'Rourke to the forward line reaping instant dividends .Still five goals down at the final break Lynch andMarchesani were inspirational in the last, Dowd andGullifer ensuring SKOB's would continue their pushfor section one glory .Grand FinalAfter twenty weeks of under-nineteen's football, season2004 comes to a conclusion this afternoon as thesection's top two sides play off for the J .S. McCannCup . Emphatic victors in their Semi Final encounterDe La Salle are clear favourites to take line honours,eleven wins from their past twelve outings suggestingthey will definitely be tough to beat . However it is hardto write off St Kevins, Obee's boys have played withsuch tenacity for the entirety of the season that they'renot without a chance . While both sides are fairlyunaccustomed to the big stage having failed to makethe finals cut in 2003, SKOB's coach Richard Obee isno stranger to final's football, the new recruit formerlya premiership coach with Old Brighton in 2002 .Section One grand finals have a tradition of being closeand this afternoon's game will be no exception; De LaSalle to reign triumphant at the final siren and wintheir first section one flag since 1991 .Section 2Preliminary FinalThe dark horse has bolted, and it is Old Camberwell,which has a date this Saturday with Collegians. Theysurvived a tense struggle with Rupertswood, finallyprevailing by 12 points . After a pretty even firstquarter, the Wellers started to find the goals, withCottrell providing a formidable target up forward .Morrison replied in kind for Rupo, who weredetermined not to let their season fall apart . Littleseparated the teams in the third quarter, but theWellers, through Matty Shanks, Rigzin, and Renshaw,were just starting to win more 50/50 contests . They hitthe final break with a 3-goal lead, and just enoughpetrol in the tank . If previous efforts were anything togo by, Rupo would've been expected to run out of gas .However, they're made of sterner stuff and the likes ofPhillips, Watson and Monzell refused to throw in thetowel. They threw everything at Old Camberwell,creating plenty of chances, but simply couldn't bridgethe gap. So it's farewell to the Sunbury boys who

thanks to Bennyfor his committed reporting .Grand Fina lCollegians would have to be shorter favourites to knockoff Old Camberwell at Preston on Sunday thanOctagonal was to win the 1997 Australian Cup . Still,stranger things have happened, and Section 2 hasthrown up so many upsets this year that I'm notbanking the house on them today . 'fhe beauty of boththese teams is their even-ness . Frankly, that's whythey've made it to the last match of the season, andwhat a ripper it promises to be. For Old Camberwell,Davis, Heffernan and Rigzin have hit sweet form at theright time of the year, and with Cottrell bobbing up lastweek, they've found a new avenue to goal . However,Collegians have plenty of boys on song, and themanner in which they've belted Rupertswood in the

second semi, plus the week's break to freshen up,should be sufficient to see them hold the cup aloft .Collegians by 32 points .Section 3Preliminary FinalThe Raiders settled better in the first quarter shoot out,hammering home 9 majors, whilst Brendan Staffordhad 3 of the Friars 5 goals playing out of the middle .Whilst Abdallah continued to shine around the packs,he was the target of some close attention from theopposition . Play resumed in a different fashion as bothsides had tightened up, but Parade were the first tospark, then produced 4 quick goals to extend theirlead . However, after a strong mark and conversion byJohn Daou, followed up by another Friar goal, it wasback to 6 goals . Parade played the second half with 17men after Thomas was sent-off, and the Friars startedmaking headway from a Walker snap and Daou'ssecond goal, which narrowed the margin to 4 goals .With so much at stake, Parade were not about to let goeasily and they denied the Friars' engine-room space tocreate and get a'run on' . In the end Parade were simplytoo good and deserved their GF berth . For Whitefriars,they should be commended for resurrecting their sideafter a year in recess, and going so close . . . . .Grand FinalOld Carey are justifiably the favourites going into theGrand Final, and not just because they beat theRaiders by 7 goals in Round 12 . They have been brutalin the past two matches (albeit one over Therry) . Laing,Stocco & Costello must be shut down, and thedangerous Ashworth has found a new foil inThompson . Plenty of firepower there!! Meanwhile theRaiders have finally been able to put their bestcombination on the park. I was impressed with thegames of Girovski and Rehlicki last week, but they'llneed that plus more to grab the silverware today. I'msure if the opportunity presents itself again, they won'tend up kicking 2 goals 11 to finish the game offl! Atthe risk of copping egg on my dial, I'm leaning towardsParade by 11 points .Under 19 BluePreliminary finalA real arm-wrestle in the first half saw one pointseparate the teams at the first two changes . WithoutMiller or De Lange in the goals, the Pirates foundWignall a welcome provider, keeping them in thecontest . The JOCs didn't have to rely on Ryan alone, asthey produced 6 multiple goal kickers across the dayincluding Walker & Peake who snuck into the votes . Itall came down to the final quarter, with the Pirates(who had lead the competition all season) taking a 15point advantage after a profitable 'premiershipquarter' . They had quite a few chances but didn'tconvert enough to put the game out of the JOCs reach .In fact, the JOCs slotted 5 goals to get home by 2points in a thriller. The pain felt in the Peninsula roomswas extreme, as they'd planned this as a steppingstone to the final Showdown . Sadly, for them, the JOCSshowed enough mettle in the dying minutes to live tofight another day .Grand FinalCometh the hour, cometh the man . In this Section,most of those men have been playing football forBentleigh and racking up cricket scores along the way .

Aside from a small hiccup against the Pirates, theDemons have been virtually unbeatable . Still the JOCs

have done well to make it this far, and will givethemselves every chance of causing a massive upset .The previous two meetings between these sides sum upthe situation - the Demons won in by over 20 goals onboth occasions . Frankly, I'm tipping something similar .Bentleigh by 12 goals .Section Red - ReviewPreliminary FinalLa Trobe Uni confirmed their status as the section'ssecond best side, booking a spot in Sunday afternoon'sgrand final last weekend with a comfortable 63 pointwin. Avenging their miserable round-ten showing, LaTrobe outclassed Westbourne from the outset, Wood,Tamblyn and Borrelli once again impressive for theuniversity side . The Fitzroy Reds will attempt to etchtheir name into the record books this weekend, whenthey meet La Trobe University in Sunday's Section RedGrand Final . Not only would a victory cement theteam's name in metropolitan football folklore as one ofthe few sides to spend a whole season undefeated, itwill also mark the side's first-ever premiership at theunder-nineteen level. Having dominated the sectionfrom the season's outset regularly winning matches byone-hundred-plus margins, Fitzroy have rarely beenthreatened this year; the top-of-the-table clash inround twelve blowing out to a 182 point win to theReds . However unlike Fitzroy, La Trobe have nothing tolose this afternoon . They are the clear underdogs, therank outsiders, and will be encouraged by theirimpressive performance against the Reds just twoweeks ago. The key to victory for La Trobe lies innullifying Fitzroy's powerhouse forward KaneMaghamez. Still dripping with accolades from Mondaynight's VAFA presentation night, Maghamez wasnamed the section's leading goalkicker as well as thesection's best and fairest player. While shuttingMaghamez down is the key to victory for La Trobe, eightsides have been trying to do so since round one withlittle success, Fitzroy by 31 points .
