Certificate of Merit Awardees The VAFA kickstarted its 2021 season with the VAFA William Buck Season Launch last Wednesday night at the MCC Member’s Dining Room (amazing set-up as usual!). 10 incredible club volunteers were recognised for their unwavering support of their clubs and the Association with Certifi cate of Merit Awards. Congratulations to Kylie da Fonte (MHSOB), Stephen Manning (Ormond AFC), John Pilkington (Tribunal), John Robinson (VAFA), Phil Skeggs (Ivanhoe AFC), Terry Symons (Parkdale Vultures), Scott Williams (Caulfi eld Grammarians), Mick O’Leary (Therry Penola), Richard Simon (Ormond AFC) and Gerry Westmore (Uni Blues).

VAFA Life Membership An important and prestigious part of the night was the induction of the VAFA’s newest Life Members, Peter Nash and Michael Hazell. Peter Nash’s (our 60th Life Member) involvement with the VAFA dates back to 1989 when his sports insurance company, Sportscover, fi rst partnered with the Association. Peter’s support for the VAFA has been two-pronged over 28 years: 1) As a major fi nancial partner with a cutting edge and competitive sports insurance model for VAFA clubs, and 2) As an advocate providing support and expertise during some very challenging times. Unfortunately, due to illness, Michael was unable to attend, and he will be formally inducted at a later date. We wish Michael all the best in his recovery.

Brian ‘Benny’ Goodman Presentation As part of the night, Brian ‘Benny’ Goodman was recognised for his 55 years of involvement with the Association, dating back to 1965 when he fi rst wore a Brunswick FC jumper. Benny, who retired from the VAFA last year, played 106 games for Brunswick, umpired 347 senior VAFA games (inc 55 fi nals!) and 17 rep matches, and worked full-time for the Ammos since 2004 – what a career! Enjoy retirement, Benny.

THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2021 8 Will Pucovski As far as special guests go, they don’t come more high profi le than current Australian Test opener, Will Pucovski. Pucovski, a Brighton Grammar alumnus and Old Brighton supporter in the VAFA, spoke with MC Nat Edwards about everything from debuting at Test level to his support for the Collingwood FC.

Cobras Catch a Chomper We all know supporters are the backbone of any football club so we’re pretty excited to see that Canterbury stalwart Sean ‘Woody’ Woodward has managed to secure Channel 9’s king of the Sunday Footy Show, Tony Jones, as the latest Cobra fan. We’re sure Ray Kilner receives 1958 Zachariah Medal he’s Chomping at the bit to get down to 63 years is a long time in footy, but not long enough to curb Canterbury Sports Ground. Let’s hope he the enthusiasm surrounding former Malvern Amateurs star, pays if they make fi nals this year… Ray Kilner, who was presented with his 1958 Lou Zachariah Medal two weeks ago. In front of a packed community centre at Bundoora Retirement Village, VAFA CEO Brett Connell presented Kilner with his medallion more than six decades after winning it with 26 votes. “It’s a great honour to receive this medal,” Kilner said. “I want to thank my family, Norm Nugent, the Village and the VAFA for making tonight happen.” Kilner, who captained Malvern during the 1958 season, was named best-on-ground six times throughout the year. That was despite his side winning just fi ve games. Twice he polled two votes while he registered one on four occasions. He also kicked 23 goals for the season, including four against archrivals East Malvern in the Battle of Gardiner’s Creek. From the club’s perspective, Kilner was named in the best 15 times from 18 games.
