CLUB WAREHOUSE RISING STAR NOMINATION ROUND 5 MATTHEW HANDLEY (OLD XAVERIANS) Old Xaverians full forward, Matthew Handley, is the nominee for the Club Warehouse Rising Star Nomination for Round 5. Has anyone had a better start to their Amateur career than Matthew? In the Round 1 game against University Blues he began the game on the bench in the seconds. With seconds remaining, on the boundary line he snapped one from 40 metres to give his team a three point win. He followed this up with bags of 10 and 7. In Round 4, Matthew was promoted to the seniors and didn’t disappoint. His first six kicks in A Section were all majors and he finished off his debut with 7. Last Saturday, in a best on ground performance, he had 5 by quarter time and finished the day with a lazy 9. In five matches he has kicked 36 goals after winning last year’s Under 19 goalkicking with 65. Matthew is 6’ 4” in the old terms, has a quick lead and is able to hold out an opponent with his strength and excellent judgement. He certainly won’t be missed by the umpires with his blond hair and athletic features. Well done to Matthew and we may be seeing a new generation of glamour forwards in the VAFA.

CLUB U19 SECTION WAREHOUSE by Charles Beaton (U191), Sports & Medical Adrian Bernecich (U192 & Red) Supplies & Alastair Dwyer (U193 & Blue)

SECTION 1 Section 3 Time for a little nibble, time for a mini mid season review. Lets take it Review from the bottom. St. Bede’s Mentone and BV – Yet to win a game…getting mighty close though. Expect big Oakleigh remain undefeated so things from Round 18 onwards. SKOBS – Disappointing - the boys are far this season after both again already planning the footy trip from what I can hear. Collegians – Not won convincingly last even the appearances of several celebrities in the Club 18 can save weekend. The clash between SBMT and Bentleigh did not live up to its these guys. “Its time to go…… Collegians”. Marcellin – two from five billing with St. Bede’s Mentone proving they are a force to be reckoned with even when playing away. They held an eight goal lead at half time and my former premiership favourites (MFPF’s) are on the way down. thanks to the good work of Chris Mouritz and Robert Swayn and Train like you play boys and don’t get spanked by 20 goals again! Old cruised to an 85 point victory, with gun forward Mitch Bodinnar kicking Scotch – Gave the snakey ones a good run last week. Much improved, 8 majors. Lee Barrand and Tim Edwards helped themselves to 6 goals but you need to do more than that for me. Midfield at best. Rupo – each as Oakleigh had little trouble disposing of MHSOB, with Daniel Team of the year I reckon. Just outside the four and ready to pounce. Wills and Michael Doyle providing Oakleigh with plenty of drive. Old Forget about the blues last week. Eye on the ball fellas. Blues – Record Ivanhoe thrashed a hapless Emmaus St. Leo’s, while Ormond held off of 4 and one speaks highly. A real Litmus test this week. Will they turn a very determined La Trobe by just 15 points. A cracker of a game was blue or red? St Bernards - After crawling around in the snakepit, they played out between Old Essendon and Ajax with little separating the two seem to have found their niche. Percentage to play for this week will see teams all day, with Old Essendon holding on by just two points to them hungry for spot number two. Xavs – Brilliant. Lovin’ it. De La – celebrate their first win of the season. Skipper Huw Wilson led from the Too big, too skilful, playing with arrogance. I love that sort of stuff. And the winners of round 6 are…….: Rupo at leafy, Xavs to humble Blues, De La to smash Marcellin, SKOB, McKINNON and Bernards to beat an improving BV.

Happy NAME CLUB LST WK TOTAL punting! U19 (1) Benson, Richard OLD XAVERIANS (1) 5 20 Section 2 Pretty, Jared RUPERTSWOOD AFC 2 20 The match of the year left Carey behind the stick, saying “we can’t kick.” Kelly, Luke OLD XAVERIANS (1) 4 18 The OM’s v Panthers bout was close, but looking at the scoreline, Carey’s kicking was as indirect as one of Danny Green’s punches, (14 Parisi, Matthew OLD SCOTCH 2 17 behinds).

The only team that should be a certainty to U19 Red win is Ormond at home against Old Essendon, and while I think they Section RED is becoming as unpredictable as Chris Tarrant’s kicking will, the boys from Essendon Grammar will be buoyed by the with two huge upsets on the weekend. Therry took care of a derailed confidence boosting win last week. The two undefeated teams of Rupertswood with a comfortable six goal win. Classens and Page were Section 3 finally meet this week in a salivating clash between Oakleigh solid in the middle while Costello, Conboy and Jack Walker kicked 3 and St. Bede’s Mentone at Scammell Reserve, and one of these teams each. New boys, Old Xavs have definitely found their footing, will be tasting the bitterness of defeat for the first time come Saturday. destroying an Aquinas side that should be hovering around the top of Both teams have an even spread of talent and rarely rely on one or two the table. Tom ‘Motley Crue’ Lee kicked 4 while Austin Ley starred for players to get across the line, however saying that, Bodinnar has been Xavs. The Bullants won by 9 points but had 9 more scoring shots than a goal kicking machine for SBMT this season and will be a man the Old Boys. Bad day in front of goal. The Voglis cousins kicked 3 Oakleigh would need to nullify if they are to get the points. In a tough each, while Ford and Kyle Adams were good for the visitors. The Reds one to tip, I will stick with SBMT in a close one. Ajax host MHSOB in a walloped early ladder leaders Kew as Chris Ligris registered 5 majors. very winnable game for them and with David Selzer in top form I am I might have to start re-thinking this top 4 pretty soon. This week, two teams I’d never think to tip against will go down. Firstly, tipping them to take the points at home. La Trobe travel out to Emmaus the Old Boys host Kew and the latter have left me asking questions about St. Leo’s in another tough encounter for Coach De Bono’s troops, their final’s chances. NOBSPC in an upset that’ll go down to the wire. however, they have showed so far that they like a scrap and should take Second, a lack-luster Aquinas will go down to the Lions, who are on fire the points home with them. Old Ivanhoe versus Bentleigh is another at the moment and will take it by 4 goals. Xavs, who are running hot in blockbuster that will round out the weekend’s games, and with Old Section RED, will topple the Bullants who were unconvincing winners Ivanhoe’s Daniel Geilings and Mitchell Bodycoat providing the last week. Xavs by 23. While the Reds will take Westbourne to the opposition with plenty of headaches, they should get the points at cleaners in a 40 point + demolition at Jock McHale Stadium. home. Send match info into [email protected] Rupertswood go to the pub. [email protected] U19 Blue Review TODAY’S U19 MATCHES The Monash Blues have entered the top four for the first time with an impressive away win against Hampton on the weekend. Monash’s Tom U19 (1) Johnstone, Matt Sutherland and Kade Collins took Hampton apart in the St Kevins OB v Collegians first quarter with an 8 goal to 1 start, and they were never headed on Marcellin OC v De La Salle OC their way to a 50 point win. Nick Lyall was one of very few winners for University Blues v Old Xaverians (1) Hampton on the day, and while I have stuck with Hampton in recent St Bernards v Banyule-Viewbank times, their time for showing what they can do is fast running out. Old Scotch v Rupertswood Parkdale Vultures showed they may be improving with a commendable showing against undefeated Mazenod, but they couldn’t get enough of U19 (2) a score on the board. Nicholas Bogar was again Mazenod’s best player, Old Trinity Gr v Old Melburnians with Luke Castledine and Peter Stanley providing him with plenty of Old Camberwell Gr v Beaumaris support. Liam Degeorge’s 5 goals helped Oakleigh Clayton to thrilling Whitefriars OC v Old Carey Gr 3-point win against Powerhouse/Sth Mornington, while Old Haileybury Caulfield Gr v Old Brighton Gr remained undefeated with an away win against Old Mentonians. De La Old Paradians v University Blacks had a bye. U19 (3) Ormond v Old Essendon Gr Preview In a mouth-watering Round 6 clash, Mazenod take on a well rested De Emmaus St Leos OC v La Trobe University La Salle this weekend at Central Reserve in what will give us a glimpse Oakleigh v St Bedes Mentone Tigers of two teams destined to play finals. This is nearly impossible to tip as AJAX v Melbourne High School OB both teams are yet to taste defeat, however, I will stick with Mazenod Old Ivanhoe Gr v Bentleigh only because it is being played at their home ground. Old Haileybury’s U19 (Red) Chris Casey and Stefan Martin should again be ones to watch as they Therry Penola OB v Aquinas take on and beat Parkdale at home, while an intriguing couple of Rupertswood has the bye clashes make it a tipping nightmare for my good self. Monash Blues North Old Boys/St Patricks Col v Kew play host to Oakleigh Clayton, with both teams coming off confidence Old Xaverians (2) v Bulleen Templestowe boosting wins, but with Sutherland kicking goals and Monash back at their familiar surrounds, they should win in a close one. Old Westbourne v Fitzroy Reds Powerhouse/Sth Mornington welcomes Old Mentonians in the battle of U19 (Blue) the bayside teams, with both teams in a similar vein of form. Old Powerhouse/Sth Mornington v Old Mentonians - at Mentonians Brad Norton and Jacob Moon were shining lights last week Mentone Playing Fields, Keysborough in their lose to Old Haileybury as were Sam Wright and Ben Price for Monash Blues v Oakleigh Clayton Powerhouse/Sth Mornington in their close one against Oakleigh, so in Mazenod OC v De La Salle OC a tight affair, I will stay with Old Mentonians in a very close match. Old Haileyburians v Parkdale Vultures Hampton has a bye, a week to have a good hard look at where they are Hampton Rovers - Bye at. Send match info into [email protected]

CLUB XVIII SECTION Winning Edge by Norm Nugent Presentations

The big question arising from Round 5 results is; how could lead in each quarter. I pick the card in Sections 1 and 2 yet only select one winner in Section 3?? In racing terms I would be swabbed! My Section 3 success rate of 73% was good enough to enable me to look Emmaus/ St Leo’s found straight ahead at Jonathan Horne (he of 80% success). winning form quickly as they bounced back to defeat Old Trinity by 11 points. My early premiership favourites REVIEW Caulfield Grammarians slipped from first to second through Section 1 their 16 point loss to the improving La Trobe University. Old Prahran continued its upward ascent with a 25 point win Geelong faltered against Old Scotch when they lost by 12 over an accurate Old Scotch. points.

Old Essendon can blame further proof to my assertion that intra Xaverian games are their scoreless first quarter as a primary reason for their closer than inter college clashes. defeat. Their best were Hughes, Poulton and the evergreen St Kevin’s had a percentage building 102 point win over St John Chapman.

I favour St week and to be sure of victory they must play out the full Kevin’s because of their form over the last few weeks against four quarters. Old Essendon are my selection. Old Xaverians and Mazenod. It seems the greater the Old Scotch should comfortably defeat Beaumaris, who pressure, the better St Kevin’s play. languish in tenth place.
