Eliza Short history Mount Eliza played in the reserves of the Mornington Peninsula Football League in its debut season. The Redlegs joined the MPNFL in 1968 and won their first flag in 1983. The club’s biggest rival is neighbour Mornington. Great eras The club started to gain strength and recognition in the 1980s. Not only did the club win its first flag in 1983, but the Redlegs also appointed Greg Lambert as senior coach and he managed to mould the club into a force to be reckoned with. The hard work in this time bore fruit when the club won three flags from 1998- 2005, as well as two reserves and five under-18 premierships. Club legends The 1983 premiership laid a foundation for the club to build upon in the following decades. Coach Lambert and captain Tom Faithfull are regarded as club legends for the part they played, as are Adam Woinarski and Andrew Hassett. The club’s strong showing in the 1990s produced players such as Carl Gwnyee and Mark Glen. Defining moments After finishing on top the ladder with 15 wins from 18 games in 2005, the Redlegs went into the premiership decider against Frankston YCW as favourites. But no one could have predicted the outcome. Mount Eliza dominated from the start to score a record 27.17 (179) to 7.5 (47) victory. EDITHVALE-ASPENDALE Founded: 1921/1924 Nickname: Eagles Premierships: 1940 (Federal FA); 1965, 1978 (Mornington Peninsula FL); 1987 (Division 2), 1989, 1999, 2000, 2002 (MPNFL) VFL/AFL players (include): Laurie Sharp (Richmond), Stan Alves (Melbourne), Gerard Healy (Melbourne), Greg Healy (Melbourne), Michael Moncrieff (pictured below – Hawthorn)Edithvale-Aspendale Short history Edithvale was founded in 1921, while Aspendale began three years later. The teams amalgamated in 1931, becoming the Regents Park Football Club. The club became Edithvale-Aspendale in 1935 and played in the Federal Football Association until it joined the MPFL in 1956. The club’s greatest foe in the MPNFL is Chelsea – its nearest neighbour and a rival since FFA days. Club legends The club is very proud of all Eagles who went on to play at the elite level, but one club icon not to play league football is Brett Wright – one of the great clubmen in Victorian footy. Wright won a league best-and-fairest, seven club B&Fs and played in three premierships among his 300-plus games. He also coached the club to three flags in five years and is a life member of both the club and league. His commitment has not finished, with Wright now coaching the under-18s. Controversy Edithvale-Aspendale was expelled from the Federal association in 1955, officially for the late payment of fees. But the club has always maintained the real reason it was booted out was so the league could avoid having a bye in its draw. All details are provided by the clubs.

AFL Coaching Newsletter - April 2009
AFL Coaching Newsletter - April 2009 THE NEW SEASON Most community football leagues around Australia kick off this weekend or immediately after Easter and NAB AFL Auskick Centres commence their programs in the next month. This newsletter focuses on a range of topics which are relevant to the commencement of the 2009 Australian Football season. PLAYING AND TRAINING IN HOT CONDITIONS The new season generally starts in warm to hot conditions and there is always a lift in intensity once the premiership season proper starts. Regardless of the quality of pre-season training programs, early games are usually more stressful and players and coaches should keep safety factors associated with high intensity exercise in warm conditions in mind – these include individual player workloads (use of the bench), hydration and sun sense. The following article by AIS/AFL Academy dietitian Michelle Cort provides good advice regarding player hydration. Toughen Up - Have a Drink! Why are so many trainers necessary on a senior AFL field and why they are constantly approaching players for a drink during a game? Obviously the outcome of not drinking enough fluid is dehydration. The notion of avoiding fluid during sport to ‘train’, ‘toughen’ or ‘adjust’ an athlete’s body to handle dehydration is extremely outdated & scientifically incorrect. Even very small amounts of dehydration will reduce an AFL player’s performance. Most senior AFL conditioning, nutrition and medical staff invest considerable time into ensuring the players are doing everything possible to prevent significant dehydration from occurring in training and games. The effects on performance are not limited to elite athletes.

A'court, BILL (West Adelaide)
A A’COURT, BILL (West Adelaide): Acourt was placed on Oliver and to keep this man from taking his sensational marks gives a man plenty to do. Acourt did not let him do too much, and played a good game beside.1 Father of star West Adelaide ruckman of the 1950s Fred A’Court (profiled below), Bill A’Court was a strong defender who also played with West. He debuted with the club in 1909, and was a key member that same year of its winning grand final team against Port Adelaide. He went on to play in the premiership sides of 1911 and 1912 as well. From 1909 to 1915 A’Court played 83 SAFL games and kicked four goals. A’COURT, FRED (West Adelaide): Fred A’Court was a stalwart of West Adelaide sides during the club’s nightmare decade of the 1950s, when four grand finals were contested without success, all against Port Adelaide. He commenced with West in 1949, and over the ensuing 11 seasons played a total of 159 league games and kicked 110 goals. In January 1954, A’Court applied for a clearance to VFL club Richmond, claiming that, if he made the move, he would be £15 a week better off financially, but West Adelaide refused the application and he continued to play for the Blood and Tars for the remainder of his career. A tough, tireless and talented ruckman, A’Court - popularly known as ‘Boof’ - represented South Australia eight times, kicking 10 goals. AAMODT, COLIN (North Adelaide): In a brainy display of football Aamodt showed all the fleetness of foot that enabled him to run a place in a Stawell Gift.
