Herbert accepted an offer from North Rebels not team and drew high praise from legendary coach Gerard only to return as one of its 19-year-old players, but also to FitzGerald. relocate from his home town of Warrnambool to Ballarat to “It was a good challenge coming up against the Essendon undertake his tertiary studies. boys, but I really enjoyed it. Hopefully, I can get another Thoughts of moving to a VFL list were quashed when crack at it later in the season,” he said. Herbert summed up the advantages of remaining in the TAC Cup for one more season. And, the other signifi cant change is that Rebels’ coach David Loader has moved Herbert from attack to defence as “I knew that if I wanted to well as running him through the midfi eld. Combing all the factors, Herbert, who last year rarely take the next step and play trained with the TAC Cup team due to his education and location, is realizing his potential and drawing more AFL then playing in the TAC scrutiny from AFL recruiters.

The fl ow-on effects from that decision is many fold, none “They still do throw me forward every now and then, which the least that Herbert can train not only with the Rebels, I don’t mind, but I am loving the fact they are allowing me but also sister club North Ballarat Roosters. to play through the midfi eld and off half back,” Herbert Such continuity and specialized training has resulted in said. Herbert playing his best football. There’s never been a knock on Herbert’s ball skills, but “It’s been really benefi cial,” Herbert said. this season he’s erased queries about his ability to win Already, Herbert has played as a 23rd player with the VFL possession and showcase his other athletic talents. Loader is generous in his praise of Herbert, who earned the maximum three votes in the TAC Cup Coaches Award in the Rebels fi rst win of the season when they defeated Oakleigh Chargers. For Loader it was the continuation of a good season by Herbert. “He’s just climbing the ranks very quickly,” Loader said. “I think by moving to Ballarat and buying into the program a lot more has really helped. He has grown as a person and a footballer. “He has bought into the direction we wanted to push his football and he’s getting results.”

Vic Country’s midfi eld strength was obvious from the outset The men from across Bass Straight proved a worthy with Tsitas and Taylor prominent at the stoppages and opponent for three quarters, eventually succumbing to Vic Willsmore capitalising with two fi rst quarter goals.

The on-baller was everywhere in the last term, showcasing his skills on both the right and left foot to challenge Tsitas for best-on-ground honours. Bushrangers’ clearance king was another to impose himself on the contest, lifting his possession tally to 22 before the fi nal siren and helping Vic Country run out comfortable winners. small man Zachery Merrett (21 disposals), Aaron Heppell (Gippsland Power) and Isaiah Miller (Bendigo Pioneers) were other solid contributors. Vic Country travels to Adelaide this weekend to take on South Australia in the fi rst of the Division 1 encounters on Sunday afternoon.

4 www.afl vic.com.au VIC COUNTRY What the coach had to say… IF Mark Ellis talks about the NAB AFL Under 18 Championships as a job interview then Vic Country are applying for executive positions this weekend.

Certainly, Vic Country players are well credentialed as they head into the match against South Australia at City Mazda Stadium on Sunday. Vic Country head into the fi rst match against a Division 1 team on the back of two impressive wins against Northern Territory and more recently Tasmania. After defeating Northern Territory in trying, unfamiliar conditions in the Top End, Vic Country were just as impressive as they demolished Tasmania. Ellis said selectors would pick the best available team for the match against South Australia, which belted Queensland by 100-points last weekend. “We’re getting into the bigger games now where the pressure will be on,” Ellis said. “We have adapted pretty well so far. I think we have a game that will stand us in pretty good stead. “It’s going to be tough opposition, but as we say it’s like a job interview every week.” Ellis noted the stark contrast conditions between the fi rst two games as well as the different team composition – about 10 changes - that Vic Country took into the Visy Park match against Tasmania. Zak Jones “It was good to play as well as we could and win,” Ellis said. But, it was not only racking up high possession numbers that impressed Ellis who noted that Tsitas laid 12 tackles “While the weather was completely different, the while Taylor won six clearances. challenge was to get a virtually new team to click together. “We focused before the match to get the game going the “Those two know each others game inside out. They way we wanted it played and we were lucky enough to be certainly look for one another when they’re playing,” Ellis able to do that. said. “’Tassie’ did a good job of trying to hold us up and block us “They rotated through the midfi eld and played some good up, but the boys stuck at it well and were rewarded.” footy.” Headlining Vic Country’s 15.17 (107) to 7.2 (44) victory was Ellis praised Dandenong Stingrays Clay McCartney, North Geelong Falcon teammates Lewis Taylor and James Tsitas.

6 www.afl vic.com.au VIC METRO What the coach had to say… IT surprised few that Thomas Boyd would prove a headache for NSW/ACT in the last of the cross over division NAB AFL Under 18 championship matches. After all, Boyd represented Vic Metro last year in the Australia at Paterson Stadium on Saturday.

Vic Metro coach Martin Allison described Boyd was “pretty Billings aside, Vic Metro will take its best, freshest team handy” as he provided a target whether as a leading target west in search of what shapes as a Championship defi ning or in a contested situation. match. He said Dragon Max Hayes also played well across half forward with his strong, Michael Apeness contested marks and leading up the ground, creating space for his smaller, quicker teammates to capitalize. “Max played his role particularly well. He allowed Tom Boyd to compete one out with his opponent,” Allison said. Midfi elder Nathan Freeman, another Sandringham player, racked up possessions and used the ball effectively as did Will Maginness. Michael Apeness, a teammate of Boyd’s at Eastern as well as matching him centimeter for centimeter, also impressed Allison as he controlled the ruck with 33 hit outs. “He rucked well and took some really good marks around the ground. He was quite pivotal to the game,” Allison said. “We rested him late in the game because we are going to Perth on a six day break, but he was really impressive in the fi rst half with his work rate and what he did around the ground.” Fresh legs is a large component of how Vic Metro plan to tackle Western

The Stingrays will be smarting after a thrashing from the Cannons last round and will want to return to the winners list. They Chargers have lost the last 4 and the last two losses have been by big margins. They have wins against the Power and Dragons and a draw against the Jets. At their best, they are capable of beating most sides. Prediction – The Chargers have been in poor form recently but their best football suggests that they could be capable of beating the Stingrays. The boys from Dandenong were below their best last week and were no match for the Cannons. They are better than what we saw last round, so it’s the Stingrays by 25 points – Gabe Sorrentino.

Whitfi eld latest Rising Star nominee Former Dandenong Southern Stingray Lachie Whitfi eld from the Greater Western Sydney GIANTS was the Round 10 NAB AFL Rising Star nominee. The 18-year-old, selected by the GIANTS with pick number one in the 2012 NAB AFL Draft, collected 21 disposals - including seven marks and a goal - in the Giants’ loss to Carlton at Etihad Stadium a fortnight ago. After debuting for the GIANTS in Round One this year, Whitfi eld has gone on to play in all but one of the GIANTS 10 matches so far this season. GIANTS coach Kevin Sheedy said Whitfi eld’s nomination was a fi tting reward for a very consistent debut season in the AFL. “Lachie has showed his skill and class and demonstrated why we selected him with our fi rst pick last year. It’s not easy coming straight into the AFL in your fi rst year as an 18 year-old but he has shown he is comfortable at this level and already taking great strides as an AFL player,” Sheedy said. Whitfi eld, an AIS-AFL Academy graduate, was recruited from the Dandenong Stingrays as the number one pick at last year’s NAB AFL Draft. He was originally from Mornington in Victoria. His selection followed consecutive standout performances at the 2011 and 2012 AFL Under 18 Championships – in 2011 he was named All-Australian and received the AFL Life Members Scholarship, while in 2012 he won the Larke Medal as the best player at
