Presentation Evening Victoria Police Amateur Sports & Welfare Society 2016 Victoria Police Sports Awards Presentation Evening Tuesday 6th September, 2016 Moonee Valley Racing Club, Sitting in the Celebrity Room of the Moonee Valley Racing, two tables of club members were in for quite a night. Not surprisingly, it was somewhat hard to recognise some members in ‘After Five’ dress. Waste deep in mud or snow winching bogged cars; covered in dust or sand; hesitantly poking river crossings or snaking up mountain tracks or around valleys for a tasty picnic is more the norm. The humming around the large room as old acquaintances Russell Mark, OAM renewed friendships eased when Master of Ceremonies, World Champion Trap shooting Olympic gold medallist Russell Mark introduced the first of the 6 Olympic Games, G & S three Guest Speakers. C’wealth Games, G & B All were most informative and entertaining as they reminisced how they made their way to the top of their individual pyramids and future outlooks. Michelle Payne Simplice Ribouem Chris Naish First female jockey to win the 2016 Olympic AFL footballer and CEO of the Melbourne Cup weightlifter REACH FOUNDATION Throughout the night, recognition Awards were accepted by sportsmen and women, team captains and administrators, scholarship and Life Member inductees.

    EXTRACT FROM BOOK PARLIAMENT OF VICTORIA PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES (HANSARD) LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL FIFTY-EIGHTH PARLIAMENT FIRST SESSION Thursday, 13 October 2016 (Extract from book 14) Internet: www.parliament.vic.gov.au/downloadhansard By authority of the Victorian Government Printer Following a select committee investigation, Victorian Hansard was conceived when the following amended motion was passed by the Legislative Assembly on 23 June 1865: That in the opinion of this house, provision should be made to secure a more accurate report of the debates in Parliament, in the form of Hansard. The sessional volume for the first sitting period of the Fifth Parliament, from 12 February to 10 April 1866, contains the following preface dated 11 April: As a preface to the first volume of “Parliamentary Debates” (new series), it is not inappropriate to state that prior to the Fifth Parliament of Victoria the newspapers of the day virtually supplied the only records of the debates of the Legislature. With the commencement of the Fifth Parliament, however, an independent report was furnished by a special staff of reporters, and issued in weekly parts. This volume contains the complete reports of the proceedings of both Houses during the past session. In 2016 the Hansard Unit of the Department of Parliamentary Services continues the work begun 150 years ago of providing an accurate and complete report of the proceedings of both houses of the Victorian Parliament.

  • 2020 AFL Grand Final
    RICHARD MARLES MP DEPUTY LEADER OF THE AUSTRALIAN LABOR PARTY SHADOW MINISTER FOR DEFENCE MEMBER FOR CORIO AFL GRAND FINAL I was born in July 1967 at the Epworth Richmond Hospital. Despite the fact we lived in Geelong, Mum’s first baby, my sister Vic, was born in Melbourne and so that dictated the delivery for the rest of us. Three days later I was in the backseat headed down the freeway to Geelong. That connection between Richmond and Geelong was cemented ten weeks later when both teams played in the Grand Final. It was a game for the ages. Sam Newman, my boyhood hero famously had to sit the game out after a bruising clash in the first Semi-Final against Collingwood which saw him undergo partial removal of a kidney. Geelong was leading at the 18-minute mark of the final quarter before two late goals to Richmond saw them sneak home by 9 points. On 11 May 1974, I went to my first game. It was a profound experience that I still treasure. Geelong was taking on the reigning premiers Richmond at the MCG. Sam Newman played and picked up 14 possessions as the Cats fought their way to a ten-point victory. Yet it turned out to be a mere hiccup for the Tigers as they went back-to-back. Those who played in that 1974 game were the giants of my childhood. Along with Sam, there was David Clarke whose silky skills carried with them the feeling that he had been gifted divine power. The Nankervis brothers were the backbone of the team who, together, brought to bear a busy and reliable sense of industry.

(Incorporated in Victoria) A SECTION REVIEW BY ROSS BOOT H After the Preliminary Final, Ormond coach Mike McArthur-Allen asked me whether his team was boring . Well, the answer to his question was a definite NO, especially after half time. What a match reversal ! Parade were rightly pretty pleased with their first quarter holding Ormond who had first use of the breeze. And, Parade followed this with a 6 goal second quarter, 5 of the goals coming from the boot of Parade forward Michael Skerritt, in just 17 minutes ! Centre half back Dale McCann, rover Frank Gleeson and forward Ted Flynn had all given Parade a good start . But after half-time it was a different story. The Ormond coach made a number of moves but possibly the most significant being Paul Sutherland to the forward line and Brad Nash on the ball - each kicked 3 goals Make the most of your money, in the second half and Paul Schuhkraft got 6 in the second half for a total of 8 for the day and a season tally of 87.

  • Australian Football League
    Australian rules football: Australian Football League ‘Football brings together people from all cultural backgrounds and all walks of life. Everyone is equal – united by their love of the game’.1 ustralian football is a strange paradox – for a game that is played almost exclusively in one part of the globe it is able to transcend cultural barriers and ethnic divides and Abring communities together. Australian Football League (AFL) CEO Andrew Demetriou said: “The game invites us all to be involved. We estimate we have more than 20 nationalities represented on our current playing lists and we are certain that this will continue to rise into the future as we welcome more people from more communities to the AFL.”2 The fact is more people are flocking to participate in Australian football than any other football code in Australia. A total of 539,526 registered participants played football in 2005 (a 4.6 % rise from 2004), and membership of the 16 AFL clubs reached a record 506,509 in 2005, the first time the 500,000 mark has been surpassed.3 Spectator support at games is also at record highs – the attendance record for the Toyota AFL premiership season of 6.28 million was set in 2005, up six per cent on 2004 figures. In addition, total attendances for the Wizard Home Loans Cup, Toyota AFL premiership season and Toyota AFL finals series passed seven million for the first time.4 On average, 4.02 million people watched AFL matches on television in 2005 (up 1.2 per cent on 2004), and the 2005 AFL grand final between the Sydney Swans and the West Coast Eagles was the most-watched television program in Australia that year, with an average audience in the five mainland capital cities of 3.386 million people.5 Like the spectacular marks which signify the game – Australian football is flying high.
