Our philosophy, every player who wants a game gets a game, means that the club prides itself on ensuring all players are treated equally and that our main priority is a fun, safe and family environment. We value all players and keep a record, published in our yearbook, of every game played and goal scored by every Glebe player ever. On field the Greyhounds have a proud history having won 24 Premierships over the last 35 years and consistently played in finals in most ages. Many of our players have gone on to play at higher levels including the AFL, AFL Reserves, representative football, Sydney Football League, while another went on to become one of the leading punters in American College Football. The club is one of the largest in Sydney and plays in the famous black and white strip of Collingwood. Our home ground, Jubilee Oval on the shores of Blackwattle Bay, is one of the most beautiful football grounds in Sydney. The rules are modified for younger players to emphasise the skills of Australian football this means fun, safe and fair games. All our coaches are fully trained and accredited with the Australian Football League YEARBOOK: EDITOR: KIRSTY BASS PRODUCER: PAUL ANDREACCHIO DESIGNERS: S OPHIE, LUCY ANDREACCHIO & JOANNA SMAIL Your Committee

4 GLEBE GREYHOUNDS JAFC President s report PRESIDENT SIMON TRACY 2017 It can be tempting to measure the success of a community footy club purely by on-field success. I m not a believer that premierships alone equal success. It s certainly one measure, but to judge a whole season by how much silverware is engraved with the club s name misses the full picture of what club footy can offer. I m proud to say we once again grew our numbers at Glebe in season 2017 to 466, with 175 Auskick and 291 junior players. I firmly believe players and their families are attracted to our club because of our values COURAGE, RESPECT and COMMUNITY, and the principle that EVERYONE WHO WANTS A GAME, GETS A GAME, helps create a safe, positive and inclusive environment for everyone was the inaugural year of an alliance between Glebe and Newtown -- to help boost age groups struggling for numbers -- and while it wasn t without some teething problems, we have created a framework to build on that will ensure players can join a team at an appropriate level to their skill and ability. We will conduct a review of the alliance involving the committees, coaches, managers, parents and players from both clubs, so we can continue to evolve the partnership and improve it over time. This year saw Glebe field two U12 youth girls teams in what has been an enormous success for the club. The numbers alone make it a great story, but the enthusiasm and commitment shown by the players -- guided superbly by their coaches Matt and Ian, and supported by managers Cris and Sally -- show what a success it has been. With my daughter Maggie playing I was on the sideline for most games and witnessed a group of young women who didn t come for a runaround and a giggle, but who tackled hard and were determined to win the footy and improve each week. A real highlight of the season. I was lucky to be involved in the inaugural State of Origin match in July, when a squad of Glebe U11 travelled to Geelong to play the Collendina Cobras in support of Rivers Gift, Australia s largest non-government SIDS research charity. The match was played in a fantastic spirit, and we were warmly welcomed by the Cobras, which was lucky because it was freezing and we got flogged. Our players raised $600 to donate to the charity by selling cakes, busking and even cutting hair. The game even made the local rag, The Geelong Advertiser. It was such a success we have invited them to Sydney in 2018 for the next instalment of what I hope will be a new Glebe tradition. This year we were involved with Kit Bags for Kids who take donations of footy uniforms and boots and send them to remote Aboriginal communities. The first wheelie bin of Glebe gear was sent to Maningrida College in the Northern Territory, where the council decided to use the packs of bags, balls, hats and water bottles to support a girl s AFL trip to Darwin. A great initiative we hope to see continue in Of course there have been the many events that have brought our community together over the year. Who could forget the jumper presentation under the marquees in the rain, the beer appreciation night, the networking event at club sponsor Eakin McCaffery Cox, grand finalist BBQs, presentation day and the volunteer thank you party? Thanks to everyone involved in the organisation of these events, in particular Luke McDougall and Mike Cooney. There are an army of people who need thanking, but I ll never fit everyone in so hopefully I get the big ones. To our gold sponsors Belle Property Glebe and Eakin McCaffery Cox, and silver sponsors Young Henrys, SupaMart, Harris Farm, Homebod and Coffee Roasters, thank you. Your support of the club is fantastic and greatly appreciated. To the 2017 committee members, Kirsty Bass, Don Chudleigh, Bev Walsh, Jason Howard, Luke McDougall, Guy Fitzroy, Suzy Mulveney, Claudia Kearns, Peter Clarke, Lynn Clift, Brad Scutella and Mike Schofield, thank you for all your work and ongoing commitment. To all the coaches and managers a huge thank you. Your work to get the teams on the park every week is extraordinary. To your assistants, runners, water carriers, and to the ground managers and first aiders, thank you. To all the parents who set up the grounds, turn sausages, sell sour straps, and then put it all away again, thank you. Finally, this has been my first year as President, and I have found it enormously rewarding, however I stand on the shoulders of giants, in particular my predecessor Peter Gowers, so I would like to take the opportunity to once again acknowledge his long commitment to the club and thank him for all his hard work. And so, farewell to another season... (Wait, you didn t think I d finish without saying anything about our grand finalists did you?) Four Glebe teams made grand finals in 2017: our U9, U11, U12 and U14 alliance team ( The Mongrel Ducks ) all went to the big dance, with all but the U11 (who went down narrowly) going on to win the premiership. Congratulations, I know I said winning premierships isn t the benchmark for club success, and it isn t, but it is a source of enormous pride for all the players, coaches and everyone involved. It s a wonderful achievement and a reward for a season of hard work and commitment. Well done. Our club has so much more to offer our community than just football. It s the reason we come together, but we have an opportunity and a responsibility to look beyond training footy players and winning premierships, and embrace our role in helping shape young men and women who come through our footy club. That s got to be better than just silverware on its own. Go Greyhounds. SIMON TRACY President, Glebe JAFC 4 GLEBE JAFC 2017 YEARBOOK

14 GLEBE GREYHOUNDS JAFC Auskick coordinator s report COORDINATOR KIRSTY BASS 2017 was a crazy busy year for the Glebe Greyhounds Auskick program. Everything seemed to grow: our numbers swelled to record highs with all age groups closing for the first time; we sent more teams than ever to participate in Auskick at the Swans and local senior games; and our Auskick girls numbers were phenomenal. It s so exciting to be part of an amazing program. Here s what we did for March: We kicked off with the U8 half-time Auskick at the SCG (Swans v Power), with Cain Sarah taking two teams 30 March: We endured the wettest pre-season ever, including our annual jumper presentation in torrential rain 1 April: Rd1 at Maroubra and the sun finally came out (and for pretty much every week thereafter) 7 April: Rd2 at Jubilee with our new Auskickers getting a taste for running through the Greyhounds banner to Up There Cazaly 4 May: Kicking guru Tim Schmidt took our Auskick parents through Kicking Dynamics, a great first-time initiative to teach our parents the skills to practice with their kids at home 4 May: Balmain Tigers senior SFL club came down to help out at training 26 May: Our Aboriginal Auskick kids participated in the AFL Indigenous Round at the SCG (Swans v Hawks) 27 May: Mike Schofield and David Sawkins took an U7 team to play half-time at the Pemulwuy Shield Indigenous Round at Mahoney Park 1 June: Kieran Jack came for the annual Swans visit 8 June: Jason Upcroft and David Sawkins took two U8 teams for half-time Auskick at the Grand Final replay at the SCG (Swans v Bulldogs). This was the first time our Greyhounds have been chosen to wear the Swans/Bulldogs jumpers and play in front of the Members Stand. 23 June: Ian Millward took a team of 15 Auskick girls to the SCG for the first time to play half-time at Swans v Bombers 20 July: Auskick girls sessions started on Thursdays for six weeks. We had huge numbers and look forward to seeing the girls back next year for our inaugural Greyhounds U10 youth girls team. Steph and her team at the AFL run a fantastic program with the girls receiving lot of goodies to take home. 20 July: Balmain Tigers came down to help out at training once again 12 August: Our final round of Auskick at Jubilee for the year 26 August: Mike Schofield took a team of kids to play half-time Auskick at the Swans v Blues SCG game Thanks must go out once again to all our volunteer families for all that happens at the Greyhounds. The Greyhounds runs purely on your generosity, and it is such a pleasure arriving at Jubilee early on a Saturday morning to a bunch of ready-and-willing faces pumped to set up for the day. A massive shout out to our U5 coach who always has the hardest job in the club Jabin Dermody who was superbly supported by manager Melissa Rowland. The U5s is a massive undertaking and every year I take my hat off to the mums and dads who put their hand up to take on the challenge. This will be my last year as Auskick co-ordinator and I have thoroughly enjoyed the role. I took it on five years ago and have seen the club s Auskick numbers swell every year. The good word is spreading about how great the Glebe Greyhounds is and every year more kids bring along their friends. It s not only the kids that make my job so rewarding but the community that comes with them. Greyhounds families are awesome and we have a club that we should all be proud of, a place where on a Sunday I see many Auskick families come along to watch the senior kids go round and scream and shout as the opposition line up for a goal. It s the community that makes the club such a great place to be. I was lucky enough to win again the Auskick Co-ordinator of the Year for the City Region 2017 and this is a lovely recognition that the AFL can see we are doing great things at the Greyhounds. Auskick at Glebe is not only me; it is the managers and coaches who provide the kids and parents with such a wonderful experience. Best of luck to Mike Schofield who is taking on the Auskick co-ordinator role in He will bring enormous enthusiasm and great coaching experience after being an Auskick coach for three years. For me it s time to hang up my red shirt. Thanks everyone!! 14 GLEBE JAFC 2017 YEARBOOK

16 U5s Coach s report & player profiles HEAD COACH JABIN DERMODY MANAGER MELISSA BORONSKI COACH S REPORT Season 2017 for the U5 Greyhounds was an absolute cracker from the very first training. When I took on the role coaching the team, I was never really worried about relating and connecting with the little ones, but I was honestly a tad overwhelmed on my first few training sessions and games. (Thank God for President Simon s wiser-than-his-years tutelage in those first few weeks.) It was really nice of Garreth to bring me into the fold and offer to combine training sessions with his U6 team and I jumped on board, and it was great, but I felt I kind-of lost my pups in among a huge group, so I decided to find a section of the oval just for U5s. My main focus each week at training was: 1. Have fun 2. Have fun 3. Get a ball in their hands as much as possible 4. Have fun Right from the word go I started seeing what a bloody beautiful group of kiddies we had this year; it s been an incredibly rewarding experience to play this role (of coach) because it s allowed me to actively become a part of these kid s lives and weekly routine for a whole season. And that is something you can t buy. The U5s have transformed soooo much throughout the season -- not to say they weren t good to begin with -- but they were truly brilliant by the end of the season and they really did the club proud. A great example of the team s understanding of the game was each week me NOT needing to try and change wristbands in between the thirds; they knew what position to go to based on where they had been. (Admittedly they needed SOME reminding and finger pointing BUT that s pretty bloody impressive for five-year-olds!) The future of the club is looking exceedingly bright with the calibre of families coming through. We couldn t have had such a successful year without Melissa Boronski s fantastic tackling of team management (the problem with doing as well as Melissa has this season is that you set yourself up to do it again next year!). Thank you so much. I would also like to thank my assistant coach Finn Dermody (my U10s son); he has been such a big help to me all year and the pups love him. The looks on the kids faces each week, and the volume and passion they spewed out singing the club song, was worth all the time in the world. It s been an absolute honour to coach the mighty U5s. AMELINE COVENEY (Smiling assassin) Don t let that gorgeous smile and attitude fool you. Ameline is a football machine in the making. She does anything asked of her, whether it s on or off the field, but it s always done with her trademark smile. Ameline is a great little footballer who really understands the game. She has been an absolute pleasure to coach and I look forward to seeing her every week. ASHER WIJETUNGA (Most improved) Asher has had a stellar first season of footy and it s been an honor to watch him turn into a bloody good player. Put him anywhere on the field and sit back and watch some textbook play-making. His kicking and knowledge of the game have grown and grown and he clearly has Greyhound blood pumping through him. BILLY NIU (Fastest mover) Billy didn t make it to any games this season -- he only trained -- but his attention and ball skills improved greatly over the season. Hopefully we see Billy back next year and we can get him out on the field; I reckon he ll be amazing. CAMERON WEBSTER (Best team player) Cameron is a little bundle of joy who everybody on the team loves. He is a fabulous player with a true eye for footy. He has shown great skill across all positions out there on the field and probably sings the club as loud as a grown man. CARTER SWIFT (Future champion) Carter is an explosive player, he has a great knowledge of the game and always shows off his skills in both training and matches. He has a fantastic kick and probably took the mark of the season. No matter where he is on the field, Carter always puts himself in the best possible position to take the ball off his opponent and dazzle us with his skills. 16 GLEBE JAFC 2017 YEARBOOK

17 U5s CLANCY TEMPLE (Football machine) Clancy is the first to training every week and is always sporting his Hawthorn colours. He lives and breathes footy, and it shows out on the field. He is awesome in any position and has improved heaps this year. Clancy always puts in 100% and is a great team player. FLYNN HUNTER (Most potential) Flynn is one of those players out there who just knows what to do and when to do it. He is a great goal-kicker and defender, as well as an all-round champ. Flynn has warmed up to the team throughout the season and we wouldn t be the same without him. He has a great understanding of the game and has the potential to be a cracker of a player. FRANCESCA DORSCH (Best all-rounder) Francesca could be put in any position on the field and dominate; she has so much energy and drive that she shines every time she has the ball. She popped way too many goals to count through the big sticks this season. If Francesca continues playing footy she will be an absolute legend. HUGO HANNA (Encouragement award) Hugo can make the entire team laugh like no one else; he has been a huge part of our team and can be slotted into any position without complaint. I look forward to watching Hugo develop his skills next year and to keep having fun with him. JACK BORONSKI (Fastest greyhound) Jack s amazing speed means he can cover the whole field and dominate in any position. He has had a stellar season and will be one to watch as the years tick by. He clearly loves the game and is always a bundle of energy at both training and games. LEO DORSCH (Rising star) Leo has that look in his eyes every time he sniffs a ball; he wants it and knows exactly what to do with it (just don t get in his way once he has it). A maestro in any position, he is an asset to the Greyhounds and, just like his sister, will be a champion one day. Whatever is in the water at the Dorsch house needs to be bottled and sold at the canteen. NED DERMODY (Golden boot) Ned has not stopped dazzling us with his skills all season. As soon as he gets the ball he knows what to do with it and where to put it. His goal-scoring ability must be intimidating to his opponents, especially when he bombs it through from more than 10m away. He s an asset to the team and he will be a great player for the mighty Greyhounds for years to come. OLIVER CARMODY (Toughest player) If you were looking for a better defensive player than Oliver, you d be wasting your time. If Ollie wants the ball he throws everything he has into getting that ball. He has been a great team player this year and I am sure will continue to develop into a football machine. The U6s he comes across next year should be worried. OTIS HOUGH (Players player) Otis is a dude if anyone out there on the field is going to be bumped into, or fall over, it s him but he just picks himself up and continues playing or training. I have loved having him in our team and he has improved heaps. Otis is one of those awesome kids who will volunteer to play for the other team or do whatever is asked of him without ever a whimper, an asset to both the team and the club. SABINE CLARK (Most consistent) Right from the start of the season Sabine has shown us that she is a girl who needs to play football; she is a great goal-kicker as well as an awesome ruckwoman. Sabine is a popular member of our team who always does what is asked with enthusiasm. She kicked some brilliant long-range goals this season and is always hungry for some action out there on the field. YU XUAN LIU (Excitement machine) Every time Yu Xuan touched the ball his face would just light up and off he went. I can t wait to see him in action out there on game day because he improved massively at training. GLEBE JAFC 2017 YEARBOOK 17

18 U6s Coach s report & player profiles HEAD COACH GARRETH BUTLER TEAM COACHES JASON MCLENNAN, CHRIS BARNES MANAGER REBECCA BARNES COACH S REPORT It was great to see so many of last season s U5s return bigger, stronger and faster for the step up to U6 Auskick. Coupled with the plethora of new talent the club had secured during the off-season, things were looking promising for a stellar 2017 campaign. The tone was set at the very first training session with all in attendance bringing excitement, enthusiasm, a hunger to learn and a willingness to improve. This continued all season, garnished with a level of cheekiness and fun as each player s personality began to show. The first couple of weeks of training revolved around removing the rust of a hot, dry off-season and allowing all players to build confidence in the fundamentals of the game. There was gradual momentum building towards the season opener, most evident in the increasingly vocal renditions of the club song. And before the excitement boiled over three teams of mighty black-and-whites were tearing around Heffron Park as we kicked off the season against the Saints. Auskick is designed first and foremost for fun and to encourage teamwork and involvement. Throughout the season it has been our pleasure as coaches to watch each and every one of your children develop and improve their skills, and to see all the wonderful personalities blossom. They have forged new friendships and strengthened others that one day could be the backbone of a premiership. There have been some magic passages of play, thunderous clearances, spectacular marks and many contenders for goal of the year. All of which, as parents, we have the right to marginally embellish as they are written into folklore. Thanks to all the parents who have pumped up balls, stood in the goals, kept score, helped with drills, been on canteen duty or not burnt the sausages. We really are a community-based club and that support is always appreciated. A massive thank you to Bec for taking responsibility again for the important things and handling them, and us coaches, flawlessly. Also to Jason and Chris for a super job at training, with your teams on Saturday and for a couple of hilarious post-game wraps. It was a great season. ARCHIE ALLEN (Future champion) Right from the start of his rookie season in Aussie rules, Archie s skills and determination were evident. A quiet confidence in knowing he could slice through the opposition like a Michelin star chef. His personality helps complete the profile of a future champion. REMY BARDWELL (Silky skills) Remy was the Black team s quiet achiever. Always in and around the ball racking up countless possessions and off-loads, while seemingly flying under the opposition s radar. His smile clearly lulling them into a false sense of security. With another preseason under his belt he will be flying in FLETCHER BARNES (Golden boot) Fletcher was a powerhouse of long kicks and solid marks this season. His run-andgun style broke games open and sent the Greyhounds from defence into attack. Like a young and brown-haired version of Gary Rohan, Fletcher could change a game with a few key possessions. I was pleased to see his commitment to defence improve over the season. The highlight of the season was his goal from halfway that cleared the goal umpire s hat, over the Jubilee fence, and on to the Light Rail headed for Central. 18 GLEBE JAFC 2017 YEARBOOK

19 U6s NOAH BUTLER (Best all-rounder) Always enthusiastic and even better when all that energy is focused on the game, Noah has the skills and ability to win the ball anywhere on the field. His never-give-up attitude set a good example on the field this season and one his teammates were happy to follow. A deserving best all-rounder. TOLGA CAMACHO (Most enthusiastic) Always enthusiastic with a big smile on his face, Tolga s energy, involvement and attitude are what Auskick is all about. A first-season player whose performance on the field developed with his skills. One to watch in 2018 (and not just for the smile). THOMAS CARRAGHER (Vice-like grip) Thomas showed great perseverance and commitment this season, and his improvement in kicking and hand-passing told the tale. His focus increased from week to week and his award is testament to how fiercely he hunted the ball when it was on the ground. It was impossible to tear the ball away from Thomas once he had secured possession. He brought positivity and energy to the team every week. FRASER CLARKE (Most competitive) Fraser stepped up big time in his second season with the Greyhounds, playing with a level of heart and sheer determination that would show up many AFL stars. Combined with his largely improved skills and hunger for a goal, Fraser at times was able to rip the ball and game away from the opposition. A bright future ahead hopefully likewise for his beloved Carlton. LEON DOYLE (Best first year) Leon had a brilliant season. A quiet and shy veneer was ripped away every time a footy was in sight, as Leon s innate ability to find and gather any ground ball near him was complemented by speed and long kicking. Over the season Leon increasingly became a team member who could understand the game well, and assist and bring team-mates into the play. An impossible match-up for the opposition. REX FISHER (Rising star) Barely made a skill error all year; he was that clean with the football. A great trainer and match day contributor, Rex was yet another surprise package for opposition teams to handle, especially as he developed the confidence to win his own ball. By the second half of the season he clicked into action all over the ground every week as a potent attacking weapon. Smooth as silk. FELIX FITZPATRICK (Most potential) It is a shame the season is over as Felix s confidence grew weekly. Had the season only been a few games longer his confidence may have outgrown his stature, which in itself was pivotal in dishing out a number of clean hitouts. Felix seems destined for a long career as a key position player. PATRICK GIJSELMAN (Key forward) Had some outstanding games during the year, including several bags of multiple goals via his super-accurate kicking, and some particularly notable midfield performances where his terrier-like determination was gamechanging. As his concentration and work ethic at training developed over the course of the season, his output on match day became more and more consistent and key to the team s success. Loves a contest. MAX GRANT (Emerging player) Max is a player everyone thoroughly enjoyed having in the team. His nature and composure at training, as well as under the pressure of a big game, shows potential for Max to have a bright future in Auskick and beyond. With a bit of skill work during the off-season and a good pre-season, Max will no doubt fire again for the mighty Greyhounds in FINN HARGREAVES (Silent assassin) Finn went about his football with the least fuss of anyone I have seen. He was a general off half-back, reading the opposition s forward thrusts with the precision of 300-game veteran. Once Finn gathered an intercept possession, he would send the Greyhounds back into attack with a line-breaking run or a long, straight kick to the wings. He was an incredibly coachable player who would play any role required of him and loved every minute of it. His 11 goals this season showed how deadly he was in attack. DOMINIC HARRIS (Most improved) Dominic has earned this award through gradual, consistent effort and a growing attention span which is vital in footy. The ability to be two kicks off the play, while keeping your eyes on the ball, is not an easy ask at this age, but it made all the difference to Dominic s progress. He was a positive and energetic contributor on Saturday, and with some off-season work on hand-passes and kicking on the run, I am sure he can build on excellent foundation. GLEBE JAFC 2017 YEARBOOK 19

20 LEONARDO HENDERSON (Best clubman) To say that Leo loves his footy would be as great an understatement as saying Wow! That water sure is wet! or Toby Greene sure protects his space in an unusual manner!. Sure the hand-passes blur the line between legal and illegal at times, but all the best players make the impossible look possible. Leo s kicking has improved, producing bags of two goals twice, finishing the season with eight. He was never in this for his own glory, being the first to get around his teammates and revel in their success. GEORGE HIRST (Defensive player of the year) Every team needs a George. Someone whose intensity matches his foot speed. Someone who relishes the dirty work of defence. Someone who takes another step in development every week. George has transformed into a defensive juggernaut whose thumping clearing kicks quite often cleared the midfield and flew right into the hands of our forwards. The joy he brought to Saturday s games was infectious and his improvement was enormous. RALPH HONNER (Best ruckman) Ralph was adamant this year that he was going to hone his skills as a specialist ruckman. A wise choice for this lanky young speedster who would wiz in and out of the contest at great speed. With a few more preseasons and careful guidance Ralph is sure to become the premier ruck option for the Greyhounds in years to come. LARSEN JOHNSTON (Best on-baller) A super reliable ball-winner who, to the surprise of some, became our go-to third zone leader, providing a reliable contest and keeping us in games at times. The game has started to click for Larsen in a big way and he looks like he s really enjoying it every week. MAX MCGILL (Most improved) Always a strong physical presence within the side, Max came on in leaps and bounds throughout the season. We saw glimpses of the player he will become when he was switched on and in the groove. Never one to demand the footy from his team-mates, he won plenty of his own ball and his skill set is coming along very nicely. An imposing, raw prospect. HAL MCLENNAN (Best & fairest) An outstanding contributor week in week out with a go-to skill set, Hal displayed a great understanding of and enthusiasm for the game. As a confident second-year Greyhound veteran, it was very pleasing to see Hal focus on team play across all zones as well as his own trademark kicks to advantage, bags of goals and the odd speckie. One-touch class. ARCHIBALD MILES (Most consistent) An outstanding debut year for Archie where he played a consistent role each week in every zone. A proven goal-scorer who also became known for pressure defensive acts and having great voice around the ground, Archie brought a special brand of competitiveness and energy to the team. Enthusiasm personified. 20 GLEBE JAFC 2017 YEARBOOK

21 U6s HARRISON PEART (Aaron Sandilands) Harrison has all the attributes of a ruckman to build a dynasty around. His reach and powerful tap had the Greyhounds going in the right direction every time. Harrison was not one to be rushed into a decision by hand or by foot, and invariably made the right call when given enough time and space. His energy and enthusiasm on Saturday were unmatched, and he seemed to grow in confidence as the year progressed. MANNIX PERSLEY (Players player) Mannix looks every bit an Aussie rules player. The way he roams the field, calls for the ball and immerses himself in the game show tell-tale signs of a future Greyhounds great. Well-liked and respected by his peers, Mannix is a deserving players player of the year. BILLY SARAH (Dustin Martin) After initially deciding he was going to train with the U5s, Billy returned to the fold declaring his skills and reading of the play were so superior it would take light years just for him to pass on his knowledge to those younger players. Thankfully for the Blacks those skills were on display week in and week out as Billy consistently racked up possessions and goals throughout a season comparable with that of his idol, Dustin Martin. FINN SENIOR (Best team player) Another who, by the end of the season, was just hitting his straps, scoring and winning the footy and showing off his already solid skillset. A willingness to play his role without fuss or fanfare shouldn t put anyone off the scent of yet another fine Greyhound talent in the making. Selfless team player. RUBY SEYMOUR (Most stylish) Graceful in her movements around the field, it was almost poetic the way in which Ruby s boot made contact with the ball at training and in games. A well-mannered and charming player with untold potential, Ruby is a deserving recipient of this season s most stylish award. SAMUEL SMITH (Heath Shaw) Coming from a famous Glebe footy family, the expectations were always going to high on Sam Smith. Like the great dynasties of the Clokes, Danihers and Riolis, the Smiths just get better and tougher the further down the family tree. Sam provided plenty of run and carry, and his kicking improved out of sight in the final few rounds. Sam played with energy and enthusiasm and as his attention span increased over the season, so too did his awareness of space and use of teammates. Sam was a joy to coach. MAX WEST (Rising star) There is no faster player in U6 football in Sydney, probably NSW! When he was on, Max was like lightning around the field. His run was particularly important in a side with several taller, rangier players. In his second year, Max now already has an ever-improving skill-set and with a bit more experience is set to breakout to another level. Rare levels of power, zip and zap. GLEBE JAFC 2017 YEARBOOK 21

22 U7s Coach s report & player profiles HEAD COACH MIKE SCHOFIELD MANAGER LOWENNA HOLT ASSISTANT COACHES DEAN MCCARTNEY, MIKE COONEY, PETER SERMANNI COACH S REPORT It was great to get back to footy this season and see just about everyone return for more punishment on the training ground and glory on game day. Our returning players came back in fine fettle, and it was obvious straight away that many of them had gone up a level after an off-season of growth and practice. The new recruits wasted no time getting involved and it was exciting to see some great talent arriving at the club to join what is becoming a very strong roster. The female game is going great guns too we had our most girls ever at this age, and I hope they enjoyed it enough to stick around and follow the opportunities that now exist for them to live the footy dream. There was a lot of energy around the group which translated to fantastic attendances at training and games thankfully rain didn t interrupt the season too much and we played in good spirit, steadily improving over the season. I was particularly happy with some of the great teamwork we re developing, increased handballing and kicking to a target, which led to some really slick and impressive attacking movement. I was knocked out at times how these kids can rise to a challenge; one particular training session springs to mind when a group was able to pick up the ball and kick quickly to my lead with pinpoint accuracy. Next year we ll set out to make even greater strides. I ll really be looking to challenge the more gifted players and keep driving home the message that we need to work as a whole team. Equally, I m intending to spend more time with those who need extra help everybody develops at different rates and I don t want anyone to feel left behind. Thanks to all parents who contributed this year on the sausages, in the shop or on the siren, and particularly those who mucked in at training. I hope you had as much fun as the kids Dean and I would have been in a right old pickle controlling all those youngsters without you. Also a big thumbs-up to Duncan, Nathan and David for standing in when necessary to coach a team on game day. Larry has done a wonderful job on the camera this season and should just about monopolise the yearbook! And a round of applause to coaches Dean, Mike and Peter I think we all bring different approaches, ideas and knowledge to the game, and they ve done the kids a huge favour by giving them a break from me occasionally. Lowenna has again done a great job managing; it seems simple but, believe me, those spreadsheets and rosters drive you nuts. Lastly, thanks Kirsty for all your great work as Auskick co-ordinator you ve probably noticed her around the place that s because she s here just about all the time, and when you don t see her she s usually up to something club-related behind the scenes. It s hard to believe some of these kids will be in their fourth year of football next year and I m really excited about the future for this group, so I hope to see you all again next season on the oval for more fun and more crowd-stopping action. MADDIE BARRETT (Best defender and trainer) Maddie really developed into a promising player over the season. Her ability to bring her fellow defenders into play when playing back was commendable and quickly others started to follow this style of play. She didn t look out of place playing further forward but has all the hallmarks of a great defender in the future. TILLY BENEDICTUS (Most promising newcomer) A late bolter for the rising star award, with just two games played this year for the Glebe Greyhounds and just two games ever in this young lady s life it is safe to say bigger and better things await her next year. Till s parents have shifted house to get her closer to the hallowed turf of Jubilee. Not afraid to use the hip to give a bump and deal with the retribution that may follow, Tilly has star quality with an edge. CHARLIE BLUNDELL (Late-season surger) Charlie, the Footy Philosopher had a season of two halves. Struggling to find the ball during the first rounds, his time spent in quiet contemplation on the oval suddenly produced a eureka moment and a turnaround in his footballing fortunes. He began to find plenty of the ball and busied himself in all positions. Next season Charlie, I want to see you use your instinct to kick the ball quickly you ll become a force to be reckoned with. BILLY BOWEN (Energy & improvement award) Everyone loves Billy the Kid. His high energy and sense of humour was a good reminder that we re all there to have a bit of fun. Billy put his heart and soul into every match and was especially good as the team diplomat when we needed to build relationships with the other side. Billy is good on the wing and in the forward pocket. His skills are improving all the time and we got to see some Billy magic on the field towards the end of the season. CHARLIE CARMODY (Recruit of the season) Charlie demonstrates great endurance and developed into a great ball-carrying player. He is definitely suited to playing midfield and forward, and as the season progressed, he learned to share possession and bring his team mates into play with great effect. This inspired and improved the team week on week. Charlie kicked some great goals both from set shots and on the run. 22 GLEBE JAFC 2017 YEARBOOK

23 U7s LOUIE CHRISTIE-DAY (Best & fairest) Another wonderful season from the consummate all rounder cements Louie in Christie-Day dynasty folklore. Whether erupting from the pack or marking in the goal square he s rarely out of the action and usually part of any slick ball movement. Always determined and with his mind on the job, he coped admirably on the occasions he stepped up and played with the U8 s, but they re not having The Maestro, one of our best and fairest of the season. KALLAN CLEGG (King of the hard-ball get) Last year s toughest in the team added another dimension to his play this year as a master of the hard-ball get, and will be known as The Cannonball Kid for evermore. Time and again he fished the ball out of some hairy situations with little thought for his wellbeing, and in the latter half of the season was firing hand passes in most of our best team movements upfield. A great season, he will be playing the Josh Kennedy role for the Greyhounds for years to come. ANGUS COCHRANE (Best all-rounder) Angus has strength and skill that make him an all round quality footballer. When he is on he has the ball on a string. But like all of us we need to keep up that concentration in order to maintain the high standard of footy we have come to expect from Angus. A big boot of the football, a lot of skills practice in the summer should see Angus return to dominate next year. Well done Angus on another fantastic year. NICK COLLINS (Champion of the forward line) Nick is an exciting player with great natural ability. He is good at reading the play and finds himself in the right spots. Nick loves his time in the forward line and is also becoming a dangerous kick out of defence. We are looking to Nick as future ruck and forward. Can t wait to see what he can do next year. FRANKIE COONEY (The footy gazelle) If you have watched the national geographic channel and seen the grace and beauty of a gazelle running through the Maasai well you would know what I mean when Frankie gets the footy and springs across the pitch mesmerising her wanna be defenders. Like a natural she plants herself in space when in attack and when defending she crowds her opponent like Shaquille O Neal forcing their mistake. Great season Franks. CAELAN COSGRIFF (Top all-position utility player) Caelan is a pocket-rocket with loads of pace and skill. His run with the ball in his hands and his eye for goal are excellent credentials. He is also a great set shot for goal and has the knack of knowing when to pass to someone in a better position or to shoot for goal himself. He has good hands and can read the play really well even at this level. A star for the future if he keeps working on his skills. NICKY CROSBIE SMYTH (Golden boot) I m not sure what animal Nicky was channelling this season, but I don t think it s been seen since the Jurassic age. I recall one particular game, whilst momentarily distracted, I was alarmed by a loud thumping and snorting behind me, the next second Nicky had torn past me, the opposition throwing themselves out of his path in blind terror. He went on to deliver one of his trademark long bombs into the forward line. It s been another season monstering all opponents for Nicky earning him the title of The Velociraptor. LIAM DALTON (Best team player) Liam enjoys his football every week and is your classic all-rounder. He just loves playing and grew to enjoy taking possession of the football and sharing it round. He is a great set shot at goal and brings a level of enthusiasm to his all-round play that is a joy to watch. Greatly appreciated by his team mates for his energy and no-fuss style of play. SAM EVANS (Crown prince of bounce) If Eddie Betts is king of the bounce, then surely Sam is the heir to the throne and Crown Prince of the bounce. At one point he bounced nonchalantly seven or eight times through the congested field of flailing bodies during the parents v kids game. His play this season has gone to another level, in fact I d have to call it absolutely scintillating on more than one occasion. Can t wait to see you next season knocking at the door of best and fairest. ALEX FENNESSY (Rising star award) I didn t get to see much of Alex in games last year, but he made a huge impression on me this season (not that you d think it the number of times I called him Luke accidentally, it won t happen again). An excellent trainer, so much of his play is top class with skills to match I can see him really flourishing next year and becoming a massive talent at the club. Your pre season starts now, keep working on your basics and blow us away next March. GLEBE JAFC 2017 YEARBOOK 23

24 AUDREY FOX (Girls B&F) Audrey epitomises the out-and-out team player. High-energy running every week, with a keen eye for goal, Audrey has developed into a rounded player who is always keen to listen to the coach s instructions and execute them with style. She was equally comfortable playing down back or charging through the midfield. With great hands and an eye for the ball, she is a strong mark as well. ROHAN HUNTER (The opposition s worst nightmare) The Hornet used his nimble feet and pace to buzz around the opposition and made himself a constant stinging presence. Gutsy looking for the ground ball, his bravery was impressive, and he s using his skills well with his team mates. I can t quite understand why this didn t translate to a truckload of goals, so maybe the answer is to put a big effort into developing a booming kick over the break to ensure we see a few more six pointers from you next time round. ROSIE KERR (The smiling assassin) Rosie seems to be beaming come Saturday morning with an infectious smile. Her opponents might think she doesn t mean business. Well, that d be a huge mistake. Rosie must have kicked a career-high goals this season; this smiling assassin should never be underestimated. Rosie does have a soft side for her team-mates and her selflessness at times is a trait we love to witness. You re a champ, Rosie. TOM KERR (The smart footy award) Tommy is a young man who wears his heart on the sleeve. His passion and consideration for the game and his team-mates creates a feeling that all is right in the world. Big improvements this season are his read of the play; Tom doesn t just hoof the ball downfield, he lifts his eyes, spots an unmarked open target and directs his kick to advantage. This is smart footy. Great year Tom, please keep coming back. TALIA LEGZDINS (Clubgirl of the year) Talia has enough energy to turn the lights on at the Adelaide Oval and send Elon Musk back to Silicon Valley. She lifts her teammates with her sheer enthusiasm for the game. Her beloved North Melbourne might not have given Talia the best guidance this season, but it did not affect this dynamic future champion s performance for the Greyhounds with her listening to the coach and responding accordingly. A fine asset to the organisation. 24 GLEBE JAFC 2017 YEARBOOK LEO LEITL (Best & fairest) The Battering Ram wasted no time, blitzing all comers from the moment the siren sounded at our first game. As the season progressed were were treated to a smorgasbord of individual brilliance, and then a new dimension to Leo s game challenged to bring his team-mates into the game, we saw some terrific awareness of his comrades and pinpoint kicking into their hands, qualities that enabled him to thrive in his late season game with the U8s. Leo takes one of our B&Fs for the first time, and I ll look to him to go to another level next year leading by example and making ever more use of the team around him. CADEN LINDSAY (Footy wizard) The Sorcerer weaved his magic through his second season, leaving us under no illusion when it came to displaying his skills and hardness at the ball. He had the opposition under a spell on many occasions, and I can t wait to see what new tricks he has up his sleeves in the future. The magician s friend is good concentration, so I d like to see you improve on that next year and become a true wizard of the game. HUGO LOWRY (Speed & skill award) Hugo has speed in buckets; when he finds that space he is gone leaving opposition defenders scratching their heads in dismay. Kicked many a goal this season and produced a helping hand to enable his team-mates to get on the scoreboard as well. This is not to suggest he can t play the other direction. He has worked hard on his defence this year learning some of the dark arts to slow down opposition attacks. MICAH MADZIN-COSTIGAN (Best engine in the team) Peter Bonetti (probably the greatest goalkeeper to pull on the Chelsea shirt) and Phil Tufnell (the people s favourite spin bowler) both were known as The Cat. Never has an AFL player had this nickname, but we have one now. We knew Micah chased the ball all day -- he has what we call a great engine -- and this year he started to get hold of it. There was a pivotal moment in the parents v kids game when he courageously extracted the ball from a sea of stampeding legs and shot out a hand-pass to a teammate. I think this was his moment look out Scott Pendlebury, we may soon have your replacement. JIMMY MCCARTNEY (Big lad, big season award) Great to see my son having the time of his life playing with the Greyhounds. He was good overhead and is a solid mark of the footy. Magpie has a thumping left boot and a good sense of the play in defence. He works in partnership with Billy to bring plenty of fun to the game. We will be back with gusto next year. CHARLIE MELDRUM (Silver boot award) Montgomery of Balmain, let s call him Monty from now on, continued to lead from the front, seeing plenty of action and shooting his fair share of goals, earning the silver boot for the second highest tally. Before next season I want you to get on the bully beef, and for those of you familiar with WWII British armour in North Africa parlance, upgrade from a Valentine to a Sherman so you can punch through the enemy s soft underbelly in other words come back stronger, kicking harder to really hit the heights you re capable of. ADAM NUSSBAUM (Consistent improver award) The Bulldog found a bit of the ball on his debut, and from then on continued to improve week by week. Fearless with his attack on the ball, he regularly emerged from clinches in a Dan Hannebery fashion to welly the ball upfield to his team-mates. Hungry around goal, he started to get a share of the spoils when his radar was operating work on your kicking strength, speed and accuracy over the summer and come back a Greyhounds legend! ELLIOTT RODGER (Big improver award) Elliott improved on many fronts this season, notably in developing a more powerful kick, which may not have produced much reward at the goalmouth, but was valuable in boosting his team s momentum forward. When he s in the chase he s an excitement machine, so let s see total focus on the game next season so you can use your size and strength to game-changing effect. JESSE RUMPFF (Footy s Mr Fixit) Jesse was the boy who cleaned up the mess in sticky situations at the back. He was the boy who swept through the midfield, vacuumed up loose balls and used all the tools in his box to plug the gap between the goalposts. These skills have earned him the nickname The Janitor for maintaining a beautifully polished game from the first time he got on the field for the Greyhounds. Don t leave your ball in the broom cupboard this summer though, I want to see that fantastic kicking style further developed by the time we return. HENRY SCHMIDT (Footy mastermind) The Thinker had a mercurial season characterised by periods of deep thought punctuated with bursts of great talent and skill. I m a big fan of intelligent sports stars, they interview well, and I d probably let my daughter go out with one what makes them great though is being able to to disconnect the brain and unchain the animal within to execute their cunning plans. Henry, I d like you to formulate your master plan beforehand and let your skills blaze unfettered for the game next season. I can feel greatness around the corner.

25 U7s LEWIS SCHOFIELD (Superior skills & speed award) Little Gary Rohan used his leg speed to rip a swathe across the turf for another season and tear the sole off a boot unable to cope with overwhelming force of friction during one particular burst of acceleration. He found tons of the ball, and a new courage in looking for it. His kicking entered a new powerful domain and he was rarely off the scoresheet. A new found relish for marking balls dropping from the upper atmosphere points to a stellar season in GEORGINA SERMANNI (High-impact forward superstar) Georgina s start to the season was electric where playing forward was definitely her forte. Taking some strong marks, she dominated the forward line. Georgina s form tailed off after a promising start but should she return next season, it s clear that she has the basic skills to make an impact every week. LIAM SEYMOUR (Goal of the year) The Wall with Legs again didn t let much get past him, reminding me of the great Rhyce Shaw with his quick runs out of defence and booming kicks up the ground. An imposing presence all over the ground, we missed him when he was absent. His most memorable moment came when he gathered the ball out of defence and let rip a kick from the halfway line which sailed gracefully through the distant uprights for an unforgettable goal of the season. GRETA SHARP (Ace player & social secretary) Greta certainly enjoys the social aspect of footy, as I am sure we all do. Greta likes to catch up with her buddies on Saturday morning and is often likely to also strike up a conversation with the opposition. In Greta s first season of Aussie rules she has provided us with some glimpses of fantastic play we expect to see more of in the future. Look forward to seeing you next year Greta. NIKITA SINGH (Star performer) What an amazing first year by Nikita. She threw herself into the sport, working hard up and down the oval. It s not an easy game to grasp at first but Nikita is a fast learner producing some excellent play throughout the year. A goal midway through the season must have created the largest cheer all year. Nikita blended well with her team-mates, all trying hard to bring Nikita into the game. Look forward to seeing you next year. QUIN STANTON (Skill & courage award) Quin is always prepared to work hard and get the ball. He plays fair and often shows us his silky skills. Quin is very good on the run and especially skilled at getting the loose balls up front and in the centre. Quin became famous for his spectacular marks this year; we ll call him Specky from now on. Can t wait to see him back to the Greyhounds next year. TIM STANTON-CLARK (Best clubman) Gentleman Tim earns his nickname for being pure class on the field, and having great manners off it I don t think a training session went by when he didn t come and thank me afterwards. Showing great skills at games, he was able to read play well and display tactical awareness. His enthusiasm and jolly disposition earn him the clubman of the year award. If he replaces his trademark cap with a top hat his transition to footballing aristocrat will be complete. LUKE SUTHERLAND (Magic marker award) Luke is a great player who can tear a game apart with accuracy and hard work. He is always in the right spot. A great reader of the ball, brilliant in defence and a very neat kick in front of goal. Well done Boomer. NEA TARRANT (Defensive dynamo award) Nea is a natural sportsperson. I m sure whatever she tries she will do extremely well. She loves playing footy and the hard work Nea puts into her defence shows just what a magnificent asset she is to her team-mates. Nea has also worked hard this season running the ball through the midfield, utilising the weapon that is the hand-pass. Cracking season Nea, looking forward to seeing you progress in CALLEN THOMAS (Skill & consistency award) Another great season from our second Smiling Assassin. It s pretty hard to wipe the grin off Callen s face, and that s no surprise as he s always involved and finds the goals with enviable regularity. He couldn t make it to training much, and I hope soon that changes in the meantime, carry a ball in your hands all summer and keep improving. We ve seen some great stuff from you, but there s still plenty more to come. CHARLIE THOMAS (Future star award) Charlie started brightly hitting the scoresheet in early games, but as word got around there was a new upstart forward in town, perhaps the opposition cottoned on and conspired to thwart his efforts. You can never stand still in Auskick, so get some practice in and find some more fancy moves before we play again I m on the lookout for a small forward and I think you could be the boy with all the attributes to be the king of the crumb, goal-getter and the master blaster all in one package. IOANNI TITMUSS (Inner West footy maestro) An end-of-season switch from West Coast to Sydney has had positive effects on Ioanni s on-field performance. He is a keen student of the game and looks to have perfected the Dusty Martin don t argue on his older brother in the backyard at home but, we are still a few seasons from being ready for that weapon to be produced on match day. Don t stop Ioanni, you are a magnificent footballer. EZRA WAUCHOPE (Effort & enthusiasm award) A super first season from The Snowball his skills are all round, he s icy cool under pressure, and when thrown into the fray he can explode with brilliance. He keeps his mind on training and playing in games well, always putting in a big effort. With these attributes I can feel fantastic footballing is on the way, so I m looking at a massive improvement next year now he has a season under his belt. JEREMY WEBSTER (Best on-baller) The Wizz is a quiet achiever but super competitive and determined. He gets on with the job and never drops his head. Jeremy is a great on-baller and defender, always dangerous around the ball and uses it well. Jeremy was a standout player this year with all the skills and passion for the game. A dream to coach. EVAN WILDIN (Mr Entertainment) Never has such fancy footwork been witnessed on the big stage since Shakin Stevens donned the double denim, and broke down the green door to take the hit parade by storm. Evan, aka Shaky, has had adversaries claiming he drives me crazy, and brought this ole house down with some of his amazing goals so let s hope he s so busy developing his skills this summer he can t find time to fix the shingles and returns next year in chart topping form. SAM WOOD (Tactical genius) Sam turns up every Saturday morning with a smile that would rival Luna Park s. He is so happy to be playing footy, and so are we given the skill and powerful play he provides his team-mates. Sam has discovered the space out wide and has used it to perfection this season. Another player who has worked out it s better to have a look and aim for open space to a team-mate s advantage. A huge year, Sam. GLEBE JAFC 2017 YEARBOOK 25

26 U8s Coach s report & player profiles HEAD COACH CAIN SARAH ASSISTANT COACHES JACK FINSTERER, DAVID SHARP, DAVID SAWKINS, JASON UPCROFT MANAGER STEPHANIE WILLIAMS COACH S REPORT We arrived at the first training session greeted by 51 excited and energetic 7-and-8-year-olds ready to attack the 2017 season. We had the pleasure of welcoming 16 debutants with 35 players returning from last year. After getting the skills back up to speed, we started focusing on our game plan, team rules and style of play. We implemented an extremely tight defensive structure where we played man-on-man. If you could not touch your opponent, you were too far away. It was terrific to look down at our defence on a Saturday and literally see Glebe players blanketing their opponent and following their every move, even if the ball wasn t in the area. Other than playing tight defence, our team rules were to run to space, look to hand-pass as a first option in the midfield, move the ball quickly and attack directly from a well-spread forward line. I asked the kids to play unselfishly explaining I would much rather they save a goal than kick one. They understood and embraced the team rules which paved the way for free-flowing, tough and exciting footy. But above all it was team footy. They are all champion individuals, but more pleasingly, together they form an extraordinary team. We certainly became known as the club to beat with one opposition coach greeting my hand-shake late in the season with Oh, you again! Some of the games were very tough (in particular v Wests and Drummoyne) and quite a lot of contact was allowed. Not once did I see a Greyhound not give 100%, with all players coming off the field exhausted having given their all for the jumper and their team-mates. I can t put into words how proud I am of each and every one of the players. They all took major steps forward this season and have developed their skill, knowledge and understanding of the game. At training we gradually brought in tackling, smothering and shepherding, which will hold the kids in good stead for later years. It was also fantastic to see some very strong friendships forming that could last a lifetime. The U8s were extremely lucky to have a great bunch of assistant coaches in Jack Finsterer, David Sawkins, David Sharp and Jason Upcroft. Jack and I have been coaching together now for three years, whereas the others were new to the caper this year. They are all great blokes and most importantly fantastic with the kids. Sharpy often commented that Thursday training was the highlight of his week. Special thanks to Steph who again managed the team and made sure stats were up to date, each kid received the encouragement award and wrist bands arrived at the games. And finally huge thanks to all the parents who would help out at training when I threw you a ball or cheered the kids on of a Saturday. You are a great bunch of people. Farwell Auskick, it s been great but we are ready for U9s... MILESTONES Archie Sarah 50 games WRIGHT CHANTREILL AUSKICK RISING STAR AWARD Awarded to an U8s player who has demonstrated excellence in skill and commitment, and displaying most potential in Auskick over several seasons. Hector Marsden PLAYER PROFILES JACK AHIE-SLATTERY (Equal best & fairest) Jack is the complete player; there is nothing he cannot do on a footy field. Courageously returned to the footy field a week after a nasty scooter incident and against the advice of the professionals (but not his Mum). An absolute pleasure to coach and one who will thrive when it comes to the extra contact and bigger ovals next year. Another terrific year, Jack. MAX ALLCHIN (Best ruck) Max has a steely glint in his eye when he gets his hands on the pill. Often splitting packs grabbing the Sherrin and making big bustling runs all the way to goal. Loves the contest and will thrive in the more physical older age groups. GUS AMMITT (Most courageous) Extremely determined and very consistent player. Strong in all areas of the game and doesn t stop running. Has a both the natural skill and heart that makes Gus a super player with no weaknesses. Not huge in stature but is fearless on the field. ANGUS BAKER WOOD (Best kick) 2017 was Angus first season and hopefully won t be his last. Extremely determined and aggressive player and a beautiful kick. Loves the hard stuff to the point at the start of every training he would ask can we do that contested ball drill. Unfortunately broke his hand mid season missing five weeks, but returned for the Gala Day. LUCA BARDWELL (Most enigmatic) Luca is a very skilful footballer who can turn a game when he chooses to. An attentive player, he is very coachable and is always looking to improve. He has a lovely kick and played his best footy off half-forward where he would always find the goals. Has a knack of reading the play and running to the right spots. 26 GLEBE JAFC 2017 YEARBOOK

27 U8s MAGNUS BARR (Best in-and-under player) Magnus thrives in the tight contests; he does his best work in the engine room, often toiling at the coalface to allow his team-mates a clean possession. Plays with a determined air and, as the season progressed, really started demanding and finding more of the ball. WILL BORONSKI (Best defender) Will showed tremendous improvement as the season progressed. His kicking developed and he was seen bombing the ball out of defence time and time again. Very good under the high ball and also good at running to space. CHARLIE BRUNNER (Equal most improved) Charlie has really started to discover the power and enjoyment of realising his potential. As the season progressed he became more and more engaged, using his body to his advantage, taking dominant marks and kicking to the team s advantage. Charlie also enjoys playing and his competitive nature is starting to shine. JASPER CHAMPION (Best running player) As his name would suggest, Jasper is an absolute champion, as good on the footy field as his old man is on the pool tables. A stand out player who backs his pace and regularly takes on the opposition with running bounces out of defence. Kicked a heap of goals throughout the season and gave away just as many to team-mates. JEREMY CLARK (Most determined) I am not sure what happened to Jeremy, but about half way through the season he became an aggressive animal (in the nicest possible way). Was extremely determined and rarely lost a contest. One of the most improved players in the team. Keep it up Jeremy and anything is possible in ASTON CLARK-HOLLEY (Toby Greene Award) I challenged Aston to channel his inner Toby Greene (early in the season before all the reports) which he did. Became a lot more focused during games and managed to hit the scoreboard. Pre-game preparation is second-to-none, always turning up to games with black and white face paint. BLAKE CLIFT (Best outside player) Blake showed great endeavour in the contest this year, but really comes into his own with a little bit of space. He often lowers his eyes to find a target and his kicking, marking and hand-ball skills have improved greatly over the course of the season. A huge highlight was kicking a goal at half-time of the Swans game. FRANK COTTON (Quiet achiever award) A quiet achiever who continually puts in the hard yards every game. Frank is a real team player and a joy to coach. Skills improved remarkably throughout the season. AUGIE DOOLEY (Equal most consistent) Augie is a quiet achiever who is a solid, reliable footballer who plays with great determination. He plays his best footy down back and in close. His skills improved markedly over the course of the year and, as a general footballer, went from strength to strength. HARRY EDWARDS (Equal best first-year player) Harry has had a tremendous first year at the Greyhounds. He displays all the attributes to have a long and successful career in the black and white. He picked the game up quickly and by the end of the season was marking confidently over head, often running back with the flight of the ball showing great courage in the contest. He looks certain to be a key position player in the years ahead. ARCHIE EYIAM-ROWE (Best running defender) You would not know this was Archie s first season of footy. Great skills and a great attitude to match always turning up to training and games with a smile on his face. A top addition to the team who looks like he could be anything in the years to come. GLEBE JAFC 2017 YEARBOOK 27

28 MAX FINSTERER (Glenn Archer award) Found his feet this year as a shut-down tagger, sticking to his opponent like glue. Selfless with the ball in hand, he is a firstoption player always looking to give the ball off with quick a hand-ball or a deft knock-on. A great team man, he loves the atmosphere and belting out the song. Also notched up 50 games across Glebe and Drummoyne. AVA FOX (Mark of the season) Dogged in defence, sticking to her opponent like white on rice. Took the mark of the year v Easts with an overhead-and-fallingbackwards grab. In her first game she was the recipient on the encouragement for a flawless performance which included a goal. CHARLES FULLER (Spirit of the Greyhounds award) The Prince backed up a solid 2016 season with an even better 2017 campaign. He epitomises what it means to be a Greyhound. Always turns up, plays to the team rules, loves his team-mates and is an all-round pleasure to coach. ALEX FULTON (Best attacking player) Full of energy and doesn t stop from the opening whistle to the full-time siren. Alex has smooth skills and an accurate kick. He would often get the team into a winning position and then set up his team-mates for goal-scoring opportunities. The complete player. ORAN GALLAGHER (One percenters award) It was out at Wests midway through the season, in probably the toughest game of the year, that I really saw the best of Oran. He was in-and-under, smothering, shepherding and doing all the little one percenters the coaches love. It was great to see and from that game on Oran s confidence really grew. ARCHIE HANNA (Master of alternative defence) Star Wars Award for the Jedi mind tricks he was able to play on the opposition when he was defending, managing to draw the opposition away from the goals without them knowing it. Had some great runs out of the ruck to set up his team-mates. JAMES HARMAN (Most balanced player) James is a really well-balanced player with silky skills who loves a goal. Equally so, James is a great team man, sharing the ball with others in the forward line to help the team to success. One of the best first-year players who has all the tricks in the book. TIMOTHY HARRIS (Quickest player) Tim got better with every game, culminating in a man-of-the-match performance on gala day. Tim shows great determination and commitment in all positions. Has a massive leap that he uses to dominate the high ball and has lightning speed which he uses to his and the team s advantage. ZIGGY HOUGH (Equal most improved) Ziggy had a great season, did a lot of skills training at home and the results showed on the field. He contributed in both defence and attack and his involvement in the game grew every week. CHARLIE JOHNSON (Best key defender) Charlie plays with an infectious spirit that can lift the whole team. He gives his all and is a big presence on the field that will only help his footy. He can be a force to be reckoned with in the clinches and his height gives him a natural advantage in the packs. Charlie played some super footy throughout the season, dominating in patches. ORSON KEELER (Encouragement award) Awesome Orson. Really showed great skill development during the year and became a bigger and bigger influence every game. Also could have won the wackiest haircut award. Turned up to Easts one morning with an absolute ripper. Clearly put opposition players off their game. GABE LARKE (Best trainer) I don t recall Gabe missing a training session and, in fact, he was often first there. You train well, you play well and that s what Gabe did week after week. A no-nonsense player who goes about his business with a minimum of fuss. Gabe is improving every year. FRED LYNN (Best defender) Fred has developed into a defensive leader at the club, showing the way for how the coaches want all the players to implement one-on-one defence. Fred s focus on game day is sharp and he loves the tough physical aspect of the game. I cannot wait to see him play next year when tackling is allowed. HECTOR MARSDEN (Equal best & fairest) Hector had a phenomenal season. He has a beautiful left boot and his commitment and skill levels are beyond his years. Fearless on the field and can be called upon to play any role during a game. Extremely coachable over many years and the worthy recipient of the Wright Chantreill Auskick Rising Star Award. SEBASTIAN MOK (Most aggressive) Quite simply, Seb is an absolute star. Shows absolutely no consideration for his own wellbeing, time and time again throwing himself into packs and running back with the flight of the ball. He refuses to lose a contest and his second efforts are amazing. Very unselfish in attack, more than willing to share around the goals. I pity opposition players next year! EMAKHI MUNRO (Most dynamic) Emakhi is a super player and a super kid, often confusing the opposition with his striking runs that slice through the opposition. He is starting to kick off both feet, has great vision and a wonderful attitude. He would often find the ball off half-back and work it forward with skill and daring. Look out when he is close to goal. ALAN PEARCE (Toughest defender) Made a great decision to code switch from rugby league to AFL. Alan had a great first season and developed his skills throughout the year. Always shows up full of energy and is dogged in defence and attack. THOMAS PERROTT (Best celebrator) Tom has developed really well this year. He enjoys run and carry and can often break lines with a bustling run down the boundary or straight through a stack of opponents. Tom enjoys his footy and is a great team player, and loves to celebrate a goal or when it comes to singing the song. DILLON POZNAKS (Best mark) Dillon had a great first season of footy. He clearly loves the game and you can tell was practising outside of training and games. One game he took a few towering marks and you could tell he was understanding the game. Looking forward to seeing him take the next step in XAVIER QUOYLE (Best reader of the play) Well, what do you say about Xavier (other than give up soccer and play with Glebe full-time)! All the skills in the book and an unbelievable knack of reading the play at such a young age. He looks to be able to see the play unfolding 2-3 steps before it has (a little spooky). His kicking is sublime, never missing a target. He is seriously one to watch in the coming years. 28 GLEBE JAFC 2017 YEARBOOK

29 U8s MALIYAN REYNOLDS (Buddy Franklin booming kick award) A giant lad and a giant of a season. His big right boot and big stature in defence regularly got the team out of trouble. Maliyan has developed his skills beautifully this year. Never seen without a smile on his face (oh, other than gala day when he fractured his arm). NICHOLAS SABEY (Best tall forward) Nicholas is another who has taken big strides forward this year (literally). Using his height to advantage he was able to take a number of great marks and kick the ball long into attack. Certainly focused very well during games and developed really well as the season progressed. ARCHIE SARAH (Best midfielder) Archie took his game to another level this year with his creative hand-passing and hard running through the midfield. His first instinct is to look for a hand-pass and put a teammate in a better position which, at this age, is a weapon. Kicked his fair share of goals and also became the first of the U5s to play 50 games. ARCHIE TRICKETT (Equal most unselfish) Archie is always up and about and always gives 100% effort both physically and mentally to the game. He is a real competitor and shows great determination each week. Archie is an unselfish character who is an instrumental part of the team. HUNTER UPCROFT (Most spectacular goals) Hunter enjoys one-on-one defence and harasses his opponent. He also has a knack for scoring spectacular goals from impossible angles. Hunter always brings a positive attitude and responds well to encouragement. His greatest asset is his accurate kicking which he uses to great effect, especially in the forward line. LILY WATTERS (Equal most consistent) It was a joy to watch Lily develop throughout the year. Always showed great commitment and determination and scored some memorable goals throughout the season. Lily was extremely consistent, rarely making a mistake or playing a bad game. Also trains extremely hard putting everything into it. TOM SAWKINS (Most skilful) Produces a high-quality performance every week, all done with little fuss. Tom enjoys linking with his team-mates to rip apart the opposition defence. Can still be seen kicking the ball well after training is done. OSCAR SHARP (Most determined defender) Really enjoyed his footy this year and being part of a team. Oscar showed great development over the year, particularly in support play and defence. Has grown in confidence and loves the rough stuff, so will be a force in defence next year. ARLO TEMPLE (Equal most unselfish) Always strong in the ruck and great at cleaning up the loose ball in the midfield. Arlo continually distributed the ball unselfishly to team-mates in better positions. THEA TOWNLEY (Encouragement award) Thea is becoming more and more confident at the loose ball now she knows she is as tough and skilful at competitive play as anyone. Thea responds really well to encouragement, has a great teamwork style and is putting something new in place each week. FERGUS TRACEY (Most skilful) Fergus had another great year and was one of the club s most important players. He has silky skills and an uncanny ability to get around his opponent, sell the candy and deliver the ball with accuracy to a team-mate. Fergus loves to mop up in defence, break the lines, and get it moving for us slingshot style. WOLFE WATTS (Encouragement award) From where Wolfe started the season to where he finished was miles apart. New to Auskick, Wolfe needed some work early on, but gradually week-by-week you could see massive improvement. He started running to the right places, getting his hands on the ball and becoming more confident. This culminated with a goal in the last game and a pineapple from his old man! TOM WHITE (Best man-on-man defender) Despite being 12 months younger than most of the players, Tom more than held his own. He was extremely dogged in defence, taking the instruction of playing man-on-man to the next level. I can t recall him ever being beaten in defence. Loves his footy and takes it very seriously. You would not know it was his first season. CHAZ WILLIAMS (Best line-breaker) Chaz s focus on game day is second to none, and he really comes alive in the heat of competitive play. On game day Chaz uses his aggression to break the lines and free up space for a shot at goal. Well done on another great year. LACHLAN WILLIAMS (Coach s favourite award) What a champion Lachie is. Loves his footy and is the ultimate team player. A favourite among his team-mates and coaches, there is nothing Lachie wouldn t do for the team. Often heard commentating games as they unfold and always knows the final score. Is mad for a packet of footy cards. GLEBE JAFC 2017 YEARBOOK 29

30 U9s Coach s report & player profiles HEAD COACH MATTHEW SMITH COACH S REPORT Before I start, thanks to everybody for putting up with me! The season started and we were banished from Jubilee due to wet weather. We trained over the back. That might have thrown some kids. The U9s loved it and got stuck into the mud. We finally got to tackle! We asked them to do fitness. They did it without complaint (much complaint). I knew we were in for a good year. Nick Morrison returned as coach of the Blacks and again more than ably supported by his manager Susan Starr. The Blacks had a great year and brought some huge performances on the gala days. Nick is a great coach and the kids benefited from his assured and calm demeanour (I tried that but it did not last). This year the Greys were lucky enough to have Nick Woodall come in and take the reins with new manager Jon Kilborn. They were dedicated and taught the boys a great deal of resilience as the draw they received was a shocker and were sent all round the globe. The team improved all through the season, and in games and at training they were tough and committed. Nick s fitness regime helped all the boys and the sight of nine-year-olds doing a beep test early on had some parents contemplating a call to DOCS. The kids loved it! The Whites were very fortunate to have a coach who knows the game and can write the best match reports in Australia. Thanks Cam for all the effort and for your patience with my texts and calls about rotations, selections, etc. Francesca is exactly what a team needs in a manager and organised us perfectly. Her passion is only matched by Claudia Kearns. The season went off without a hitch due to her efforts. Most importantly to the players. They trained hard and had fun. They improved every week. They made us all incredibly proud. They are a fantastic bunch of different personalities who come together twice a week to train and play as a unit and they made the year sensational. Without a doubt the U9s sing the club song with more volume, gusto and passion than any other age group. They are a group the club can build its future on. A special word about the Whites who won the grand final. Playing basically two full games backto-back on the same-sized field as the U11s was some sort of task the league set them. The kids were exhausted but from somewhere in the last quarter (probably from the Nick Woodall fitness sessions) they dug deep and summoned the energy to run the game out when Maroubra could not. They were brave and tough. They tackled and smothered, ran and chased. All of them. I was amazed at the effort that those nine-year-olds gave. The sound of the song at the end of the game was a gift to us all.

He did not disappoint. He fitted into the group nicely and with a lovely raking left boot (who does not love a left-footer?) he gave us drive and goals. He has great hands and a slick hand-pass which had him impressing the B&F voters. A midseason sojourn to Scandinavia interrupted his run of games but he came back when needed at the business end. Highlight was his three-goals-in-five-minutes against Newtown. JACKSON BARNES Jackson is now a veteran and is a reliable team-mate. He had a standout performance against Easts at Trumper in a niggly game. He went hard at everything winning hard balls, making tackles and for his efforts he won free kicks. In the GF he was isolated at the back when a ball came in long. It was twoon-one but he fought for the ball, held them off and waited for troops to arrive. It saved a goal. Besides his footy he is an effervescent presence and the team is poorer when he is not there. NED BENNETT The second of our twin towers. Great kid with a huge heart. Feeling crook on GF day he struggled through the first six quarters. We needed him. He came on, took on their best and biggest. He did the job playing at centre half-back. He out-ran and out-played their star. A hugely brave and important performance right when our boys looked out on their feet. He was sure with his hands and by foot, and kicked some amazing goals during the season. The one over his head a standout! GLEBE JAFC 2017 YEARBOOK 31

32 HAMISH BURNICLE The sight of Hamish grabbing the ball, and palming kids off was so common a sight this season that I think we took it for granted. We shouldn t. He smashed his way through the opposition all year. He worked himself into the ground and kicked a huge number of goals for us. He was often thrown into the ruck against taller and bigger kids. Didn t matter, he won it anyway. He gave us a shot at the win in the GF with a third quarter that dragged us back. A huge performance that left him cooked. A deserved runner-up in the B&F. LIAM BURNICLE You play against the Whites. You take a bounce. You wake up on the sideline. Not my rules. They are Liam s. Tough as teak, fast and determined. You can see the opposition players don t like playing him. Perfect for us. Deservedly played in the development day and won 10 free kicks for his tackles. Threequarter time in the GF I turned to Liam and let him know he was going into the midfield. Fist clench, YESSS from LB. He dragged us across the line. Simple as that. He stole the ball, he crunched and smothered. He wanted to win and it was going to happen. What a season. SASHA CHRISTIE-DAY I did not realise until I got to coach Sash what a great kick he has. I also did not realise how tough and competitive he is. Playing for the U11s in Victoria against Collendina U12s, Sash nearly killed himself taking out a huge kid with a tackle. It was massive. In the GF that crazy competitiveness came through when he was thrown into the midfield by stressed coaches. He won the ball at the contest and made sure it went forward, he intercepted and he ran himself into the ground. Nothing but effort and will. What a legend! QUILLAN TRICKETT This is sadly the last season that Quillan is having with the Greyhounds as he is off to Melbourne to further his footy education. Another veteran of the club, he gave us effort when we needed it. On gala day he was fearless, with his tackling setting the standard early on. He adjusted to the physical side of U9s well and we were all gutted that he was too crook to play in the GF. He was talked about on game day and the boys won it for him. CORMAC JOHNSTON Cormac started this year with the club and took a few games to warm up. Then he was red hot! Cormac is committed, he tackles. Hard. He attacks the footy. Hard. He flies for the ball. Hard. Many highlights to choose from but in the game against Wests he was given the job on the big full-forward. He completed the job on time and on budget. He dominated. Who will ever forget his pack mark against Easts in the prelim? TEX LIU We played Wests twice during the gala days. Their coach came up to me after it was all over and said just how much he loved watching Tex play. He reads the game so well, runs back to help defence, marks up every time and runs to space when we have it. The Wests coach missed the GF. He would have plenty more positives to say about Tex if he saw it. The last quarter Tex showed us his stamina and ran to intercept kicks, make tackles and then to make space. He was amazing. The midfield got us home and he was a huge piece of the pie. RUKI MERLIN Ruki has been at the club forever and cracked the 50-game milestone with a banner that had all the kids green with envy. He deserved the banner because his work this year was a huge part of the team s success. He smashed three goals against Newtown in an important game and his marking made him a weapon. Nobody marks up as good as Ruki. Nobody. He does what you ask. Always. We love him. PAT SMITH Our deserved B&F. He played up in games this year and stood out. He kicked all our goals on GF day. He was tagged by Moore Park in the semis by three kids. He kicked four goals. His performance in the first game against Easts this year was something I will never forget. The opposition struggle to hold him. But more importantly, he is a good teammate. He looks to share the ball. The veins pumping in his neck when he sings the song after the game tell you what the club and the team means to him. MATTHEW SUGOWDZ-MADGWICK This was the first season that Coach Matt had a player called Matt. I obviously had an immediate affinity with him. Matty s improvement during the season was phenomenal and led to the creation of a new moniker: The Tackle Machine. Each week his tackle stats improved. They could not get away. But the highlight was without a doubt his goal on semi-final gala day against Concord. Sprint, gather, hit, spin, snap, GOAL! WILL TARRANT If I think of season 2017 I will definitely think of this guy. Always with a yellow Sherrin. Always kicking. Always tall! Will clearly practised a lot. His kicking improved week by week. He slotted a couple of set shots with ease. Big drop punts. He practised his ruck work and thought about where he wanted the ball to go. His reverse tap to Pat Smith for a goal on gala day was a moment of magic which had the scribes looking for superlatives. He won so much ball for us in the ruck we always had first opportunity. LEON TITMUSS What a player. A team man through and through. He played wherever you asked with the same determination. He is skillful, but what we discovered in the finals was how tough he is. His aggression and determination in the tackle against Maroubra in both games we played was amazing. He ran himself ragged in the GF and was brave enough to tell us. He went forward and provided the spark we needed there. We are lucky to have him. ELLIOT WOOD Love this one. His hair belongs on a first year Arts student. His footy belongs at the Greyhounds. His first half of the year had the coaching staff purring as he dominated. He was everywhere: running, tackling, running, marking, running. Red cheeks from Elliott is a great signal. He kicked a super goal on the run against Newtown but it was his attack on the ball and tackling which had his teammates pumped. 32 GLEBE JAFC 2017 YEARBOOK

33 U9s BLACKS PROFILES MAVERICK BISHOP Yet another of our first-year players, Maverick has done well to pick up the fundamental skills of Aussie rules so quickly. I am sure with another season or two to hone his skills, combined with his height and pace, will see Mav develop into a fine footy player. Trust you enjoyed playing the greatest game of all. LUCIAN COVENEY Like the rest of the team, Lucian showed great improvement as the season progressed. The Best team man was another of the hotly contested categories. Lucian takes the chocolates for this one based on his irrepressible enthusiasm for the team, his insatiable appetite for competing for the ball and unrelenting tackling pressure. Great work Lucian love your enthusiasm. OSCAR CROSBIE SMYTH Forget the Brownlow Medal, it is the Houndlow Medal for Oscar as our B&F. A fitting acknowledgment for his 2017 play. If they wanted to make a prototype of Oscar they would need a hybrid clone of Josh Kennedy, Patrick Dangerfield and Dustin Martin. Oscar can do it all (and does) and has the makings of a great midfielder. Oscar was rewarded for his outstanding play with selection in the development day team. Also chalked up his 52nd game for the club. Ripper of a year Oscar -- keep up the great work! JOE EVERETT Yet another player who improved across the course of the season -- saving his peak performances for the gala period. Despite regularly giving away height and weight to opponents didn t stop Joe from fronting up when it was his time to shine. Hats off to you Joe, well played. LUCA GARDINER Luca came into his own in the second half of the season. By season s end he was taking marks deep in the forward line, running hard and competing for the ball in the midfield and doing some fine defensive work at the back. Our most capped player, racking up his 61st game. Have enjoyed watching you improve over the course of the season Luca nice one! THOMAS KILLINGSWORTH Thomas is our self-appointed resident backman. Taking control of the backfield, Thomas showed some impressive organisation and communication skills. Scoring against the Blacks was never an easy thing. Thomas possesses a fine drop punt which is both graceful and effective. Bit of work in the off-season to build his tank and Thomas will continue to excel. OWEN LE BROOY Owen, being an avid Hawks/Cyril fan, brought a winning culture to the team. It didn t take long for his skills and knowledge of the game to shine through. Owen found his best position up front zipping around the forward line. Owen s family relocated to Melbourne mid-season. In his last game for the team, and with literally seconds left on the clock, Owen sent the ball sailing through the big sticks as the final siren sounded. What a way to sign off. LIAM LENORD The rising star award was a hotly contested category as the U9 Blacks welcomed several first-year players. Liam took the award based on his all-round prowess. A raking kick, solid as a rock under the high ball, can run all day (fast) and no doubt the premier tackler in the U9s (if not the whole club). Pleasure having you in the team, Liam, hope to see you again next year. MAXWELL MENZIES Ever reliable in the forward line, Maxwell finished the season strongly with a swag of scores (goals and behinds) during the gala period. Maxwell was always front and centre when the ball was sailing into our forward line ready to crumb the ball and take a shot at goal. In the midfield and at the back Maxwell did his fair share of the grunt work. JAMES MORRISON Personal biases aside James is the kind of player every coach loves having in their side (and the more the better). Reads the game well, takes marks, kicks goals, wins his own ball, defends well, marks up, tackles and can take a tackle. Another of our players to crack 50 games. CHANDLER RAMEAR Chandler showed great ability in all the fundamental skills an Aussie rules player needs (marking, kicking, hand-passing and tackling). When the pack formed and the ball was there to be won there was a good chance Chandler would emerge with ball in hand and a host of players hanging from his shoulders. Very impressive for a first-year player the future looks bright for Chandler s footy career. RAFAEL RAMOS Rafael continued his impressive development this year. Goal of the year goes to Rafael courtesy of a fine effort against Drummoyne at Drummoyne. Deep in the right pocket, under heavy defensive pressure and in the process of being tackled, Rafael managed to get his kick away despite being horizontal to the ground. Rafael s fine efforts were rewarded with selection in the development day team. LACHLAN RUNDELL A preseason broken collarbone led to a fractured season (pun intended). Lachlan was another who improved over the course of the season timing his best play for the end of season gala period. Thanks to his father, Scott, I am sure Lachlan will have the words get goal-side Lachlan ringing in his ears well into his adult years. Lachlan was never short of a word; I enjoyed our mid-training and midgame conversations! ZACH SANDLANT Zach was the go to key forward for the U9 Blacks this year. A reliable mark and a great set shot exponent. Zach s fine work allowed the team to capitalise on the great work of the mids/backs when the ball went forward. Zach also made his mark (literally) in defence when an unsuspecting Newtown player tried a sideline dash poor kid nearly ended up over the picket fence. FINLAY SWIFT Whether it was manning up at the back, chasing the ball in the midfield or finding space in the forward line, Finlay was our running man. Just watching Finlay clocking up the Ks even made me feel tired by game s end. Another to rack up 50 games for the club. Well done Finlay. GLEBE JAFC 2017 YEARBOOK 33

34 GREYS PROFILES AIDAN COSGRIFF Over the course of this season Aidan really worked hard on his game, particularly manning up in defence and his pressure on the football. Aidan is a great team player, so much so that one particular game against Easts, I needed to have 3-4 on the interchange... so he took it upon himself to have a malt milkshake and a packet of Doritos 10 mins out from kickoff, which basically sidelined him for three-and-a-half quarters. Talk about taking one for the team! I look forward to seeing further improvement in Aidan s game next season. HUNTER GIBSON Hunter had a fantastic season. He enjoyed playing in the forward line and was able to kick some crucial goals. He is an extremely accurate kick, which made him an important player, whether it be coming out of the middle or shooting for goal. Hunter was one of the smaller players for the Greys, but what he lacked in size, he made up for in ticker. Hunter was fantastic for us when it came to contesting the mark. I look forward to seeing Hunter develop further. HENRY JORDAN Hard-nut Henry If ever there was a hard ball to win, Henry was the player who would win it. There were times when I thought it wasn t possible for the ball to come out of a pack with 10 players on top of it, then all of a sudden, Henry would emerge with the ball and get it into space. The improvement in Henry s tackling pressure this year was outstanding. He was very solid in defence for us and was a valuable contributor. I believe if Henry can improve on his disposal, he would make and outstanding player. A player to watch next season. OLIVER JOYCE Another player who improved across the course of the season. Joycee was fantastic in defence for the Greys and, like Hunter, what he lacked in size, made up for with ticker. Joycee played exceptionally well during the gala rounds peaking at the right end of the season. Joycee is a quiet achiever who always did what was asked of him. A pleasure to coach and a likeable all-round good guy. HUGO KILBORN It didn t matter what position Hugo played, he did it with ease. Hugo always did whatever was asked. Using both sides of his body, whether it be by kicking or hand-balling, it was a skill that Hugo took to the next level this year. Hugo always looked like he had plenty of time when disposing of the football and generally did it with great accuracy. A pleasure to coach and I look forward to watching him develop over the coming years. A worthy dual winner of our B&F runner-up. SHEA MILLWARD Shea s input this year was invaluable. He was always willing to do what was asked, particularly if it meant taking on someone twice his size. Backing down wasn t an option. Outstanding tackling pressure, great ability to read the play and had absolutely no trouble getting the football. Shea racked up 50 games for the club this season. I really enjoyed watching him play this year and I m keen to watch him develop next season. A worthy winner of our B&F. OLIVER MILTON Oli improved a lot from the start of the season. He was great for us in the ruck and nine times out of 10 he would win the tap. Oli s marking and manning up were areas where he really improved. He got much better at communicating with his team-mates as the season progressed. I had a consistent message for Oli most weeks and that was to keep his feet in the contest and not go to ground by season end he was doing this consistently. Well done Oli! HAMISH PAXTON Hamish was the quiet achiever in the team; he chipped away until he got the job done. Hamish showed steady improvement over the course of the season, and gradually improved elements of his game, peaking in the gala rounds where he played his best football. Especially his tackling. I look forward to seeing Hamish develop further with his footy. ISAAC PLACENCIA Isaac returned to the club part-way through the season after realising he was never going to find the brilliant culture the Greyhounds have developed over many years. And, also the fact he was never going to find a team that sings the team song with such gusto. Isaac was welcomed back with open arms and has been a valuable team player since his return. He is a real go-getter and another one from the Greys to join the 50 club this season. Isaac s key areas of improvement were his tackling pressure, manning up in defence and marking. Good to have you back! ABE RACE What a valuable player Abe was this season. Early on we thought we had lost Abe for the season with a dislocated knee, plus the bone had been chipped off the knee cap. But not surprising he made a return a lot sooner than expected and came back better than ever. This was a huge boost for the Greys as Abe s size was invaluable when it came to winning the contested ball. Abe is a great mark overhead and a solid kick of the football. A very consistent footballer who fared very well to place third in the B&F. 34 GLEBE JAFC 2017 YEARBOOK

35 U9s CASH ROBINSON Cash had a fantastic season. A player who contests the ball at every opportunity, I ve noticed a big improvement in Cash s marking ability overhead this season. He s also not scared to try and emulate Malcolm Blight and have a go at the goals from 70m out. With 15 goals under his belt this season, it lands him the Coleman Medal for the Greys. Cash also played his 50th match for the club this season. His strong work ethic in every position helped land the runner-up in the B&F. FELIX TRETHEWEY Felix s consistency and improvement kept building through the season and it really showed during the gala rounds where he really hit his straps. Felix also proved to be a bit of goal-sneak up forward with 10 majors, and this is where he played his best football. On most occasions Felix demonstrated great vision by trying to assess the best option for disposal whenever he got a free kick or took a mark. Felix s accuracy was very good with his trademark left foot, usually hitting his target. CHARLIE WOODALL Charlie really found his voice this year, probably due to the fact he s been in awe of the vocal gymnastics displayed by coach Matt Smith this year. Charlie s communication both at training and on game day has been second to none. I ve also seen a noticeable improvement in his tackling pressure and marking. He s also proven himself to be a bit of goal-sneak up forward, kicking some very handy and difficult goals this year. One goal in particular springs to mind where he had three defenders hanging off him and still managed to get around them to kick a great goal. A much improved season on last year. WILL YARDLEY Will provided plenty of run for the Greys all year. Whether chasing down an opponent or running to clear the ball, Will s speed was a valuable asset. At times I thought he was auditioning for the sequel to Forrest Gump very exciting to watch. Will was always hard at the footy and you would often see him bursting out of the pack with the ball tucked under his arm. His tackling was always on point and his marking overhead was great to watch. A hard but fair player. HARRY ZYLMANS I really enjoyed watching Harry develop this season. When he was on, he was on! Harry played his best football in the middle of the ground and defence. Harry s pressure on the opposition was very consistent all year and his tackling got better each week. He has a can-do attitude and gets the job done. A valuable member of the Greys who liked a challenge. GLEBE JAFC 2017 YEARBOOK 35

36 U10s Coach s report & player profiles HEAD COACH MATT SAGGERS COACH S REPORT The U10s had a tremendous year that saw every player individually improve in key parts of their game. Our game style also progressed nicely from U9s to be more fluid by foot and hand. We often exposed the opposition to slick ball movements and fast transitions out of defence and through the midfield. This was despite an almost non-existent pre-season that was ruined by persistent rain. Full credit to the returning Greyhounds in The club is built on community values of inclusion, support and encouragement, and it has been a pleasure watching this wonderful group of children develop together. In addition, we welcomed 12 new players to the club who immediately joined in the song and spirit. The character of this U10 group shone through all year as they listened, respected the coaches, umpires, opponents and one another. We had a total group size of 33, which is a fantastic result for the club. Tom and I knew we would have a challenging start to the season with limited pre-season and welcoming new players, signalling to the parents that the teams may not hit their straps until round five, and this was almost exactly how it panned out. During training and on match day the boys would anchor themselves to three key words (inspired by one of Rob s Herculean addresses): Intensity: show no fear and go in hungry for the ball, with second efforts Influence: make your actions count, disrupt an opponent s passage of play or mark Purposeful: be deliberate in your field position to either defend or attack The coaching team s commitment to rotating players through each zone gave greater scope and development opportunities for each player to better learn and understand the game and of course take shots on goal. This holds every player in good stead for U11s and for years to come as they develop as athletes. The highlight, however, was the lift in intensity and attack on the ball throughout the season, which saw a marked improvement in awareness, tackling pressure and use of the body around the ball. This was certainly a step up from last year, with the hits now audible from the sidelines. Ouch! Special thanks to Sam Winter and Kylie Couper, who were outstanding team managers all year, with Sam stepping in as coach for the Whites when required. Rob Giltinan and Adam Guastella were also a big help stepping in as runner/assistant coach throughout the year for the Blacks. Thank you also to Alison Ryan, our age group co-ordinator, who also took on the Whites team manager role when Sam was coaching, and for organising an evening out for players and parents to close out the season. A final thankyou to the Blacks official photographers in Jennifer Richardson and Justin Thai for capturing some very special moments throughout the season. This year also saw me take on the role as lead coach for the U10s, as Mike Donaldson followed his son Jake to U11. Big shoes to fill after the great work of Mike over the many years of Auskick and juniors, thanks Mike! A big thank you goes to Tom Gilpin who quickly stepped in as coach for the Whites, having to juggle his travel schedule to maximise his availability for training and game day each week. I would also like to thank player Will Killen for supporting his age group and playing for the Blacks for a few games during the season. To the parents who brought their players along each week to training and game day, you should be very proud of this wonderful bunch of kids. Their passion and character mentioned earlier is a credit to you as parents. They were very enjoyable to coach. Thank you for your support on the sidelines and your willingness to volunteer on game day and at the club was a fantastic year for all involved. While missing finals in 2017, our best football was nothing short of scintillating. The developing talent in the group is unquestionable and is a great base to build on in We look forward to welcoming everyone back to the mighty Glebe Greyhounds Football Club in the New Year.

Always respectful and listening, he was great to coach. Felix had some stand-out games in 2017 in his first year at the club. He started in the midfield in round four against the Bulldogs and tackled them out of the game! Every time Bulldog midfielders tried to break free Glebe #7 was there smothering and tackling. That s when Felix announced himself to his teammates as a star! OLIVER CHAPLIN Oliver was the team s biggest improver in It was very noticeable when Ollie wasn t playing the impact it had on the team s speed and ball movement. Ollie had some fantastic games, especially in the midfield, where he could use his speed, outside run and long kicking to help Glebe score. Ollie s highlight game came in round 11 when we had three key players out with the flu and he stood up across half-back taking numerous intercept marks, before switching into the midfield where his clean skills from centre breaks proved a real match-winner. TOM EVANS Tom has been one of the team s most versatile players this year, having an impact in the back-line, midfield and forward. His tackling and pressure lifted this year as well as his accurate kicking. Like many of his teammates his best effort came in the round four game against the Bulldogs, where he chased and harassed through the midfield to choke up their run and help the team claim a draw against the defending premiers on their home ground. Tom reads the play very well and has the knack of arriving just in time to create the contest and turnover. CHARLIE GILPIN Charlie built on a good 2016 with a solid Playing his best football in the midfield, Charlie had many highlights and contributed to a great style of play where hand-ball unlocked space and run for all the team. Charlie s ability to mark overhead and take pack marks really helped the team in The highlight of the season for was his 35m goal from the boundary against the Bulldogs in round four which helped snatch an unlikely draw at Trumper Park. JOSEPH HARRIS Joseph was a big improver in His marking and ruck work was a fantastic lift for the team. The more the coaches asked Joseph to do during the game the more he responded. The highlight was his game against Drummoyne in round 13 where Joseph rucked all day, having decisive tapouts against taller opposition and marking all over the ground. Although we came second that day, without Joseph s effort it could have been much worse. MAX HENDERSON Max was a big improver in As the season wore on he really relished the role of a defender and always gave great leading options in space. Max always came to training, listened and improved his skills greatly. Max thinks about his football and was one of the first players in the team to lead into space and spread quickly from his opponent after a turnover. The highlight of Max s year was the string of three games where he kicked a final-quarter goal. GLEBE JAFC 2017 YEARBOOK 37

38 LEO HOENIG Leo had a great year in 2017 using his speed to crumb packs and break lines. Kicking important goals all season, Leo also played well in the midfield. One of the most impressive efforts came in a late season game against the Saints which was tight at the centre bounce. The Saints looked like they would break away from the bounce only to have Leo single-handedly (and repeatedly) pressure much larger opponents sideways to a boundary throw-in with a sequence of smothers and tackles. It was inspirational work and really lifted the team. BENNY HUNT Another great year from Benny. His intensity at the contest, his chasing, tackling and second efforts were the benchmark for the U10 Whites. A big improvement from 2017 was hand-balling out of congestion where, instead of getting caught holding the ball, Benny brought runners into the game by dishing off and setting up many great passages of play. One of the highlights of Benny s season came on gala day where he pinned his opponent five times to win five free kicks across the day. Great reward for effort. Benny is a pleasure to coach. NOA JAMES Noa was another new player to the Greyhounds in From the first training, he showed aggression and athletic skill. Coaches had to filter some of the rugby out of him but his improvement over the year was a real credit to him. He always listened and tried to improve. The coaches could put Noa anywhere on the ground and he d make a contest; his tackling was fantastic. The highlight was his winning goal in the dying minutes of gala day two. HARRY KEEPING Harry s first year at the Greyhounds was outstanding. He has shown great maturity in his training and application on game day. Holding down key positional roles has been Harry s strength, as well as his willingness to learn. His marking against the Bulldogs in round four was a highlight when he almost single-handed repelled dozens of attacks with intercept marks and long kicks from defence. LUCAS KUNG Lucas was always dangerous near goals in 2017, finding an evasive side-step or extra pace when the big sticks loomed. Lucas kept his feet well, not falling out of the contest by going to ground, allowing for more forward defensive pressure and keeping the ball in our attacking zone for longer. The coaches encouraged all forwards to take their time with their goal-kicking and Lucas set the standard in professional set-shots, pulling his socks up and checking the wind. This made him our most accurate goal-kicker and very entertaining to watch! NED LARKE Ned has been a leader for the U10 Whites all year. Enjoying his best football at full-back, Ned reads the play really well and had many intercept marks on the last line of defence. The coaches could always count on Ned to help other players and pick up the loose opposition player. The highlight of Ned s year was the intercept mark he took late in the round four game against the Bulldogs amid several opponents. Ned then found a team mate on the wing with a penetrating kick, leading to a frenzy of high-fiving on the sidelines. JOEL LEWIS Coming off a good base from his first season in 2016, Joel had a great year. His ball skills and aggression have developed really well since the season start. Joel defended brilliantly which culminated in his move to the ruck for the whole gala day - an indication how far he s developed this year. He battled really well, tackled ferociously and worked hard. Joel is a pleasure to coach, willing to listen and learn and give 100%. LOUIS LUSTY Louis is another quiet but intelligent footballer who enjoys his footy, listens and tries to learn the game from his coaches. Playing all over the ground, Louis showed excellent versatility in adapting roles the team needed. Louis highlight came against Newtown at Alan Davidson, when he kicked the winning goal to put the mighty Greyhounds up by a few points. Late in the season we found Louis has pace to burn, his dash down the wing against the Glebe Black team left parents and team-mates in awe. This will be a huge asset in U11s. WILLIAM NICHOLS Will had a tremendous year for the Greyhounds. His dash and aggression at the Sherrin helped the team lock the ball in its forward half and defend its zone. Will had some stand-out efforts in 2017, but his first quarter against the Saints in round nine was amazing. He dominated at CHF, kicking 3.2 in the opening quarter. If the goal posts weren t unusually set up (off centre ;[) after the preceding U9 game Will would have easily kicked five for the quarter. Congratulations on a fantastic year. ZAC WINTER Zac crossed from the Power in 2017 with his mate Harry. Zac is a quiet fellow but always listens and executes his role well. Zac warmed into games as they went along and always delivered a strong final quarter, usually leading the team tackle count. Zac was a master of stripping the ball in the tackle and holding up opposition attacking movements. His effort against the Tigers in round five, having four shots on goal to help his dad win a bet with one of the Moore Park dads, was special. 38 GLEBE JAFC 2017 YEARBOOK

39 U10s BLACKS THOMAS BORONSKI Another new recruit to the mighty Blacks, Tom slotted into the team nicely. Starting off a little tentatively as he learned the positions, he soon got the hang of it, even putting a goal on the board against us when loaned to the opposition for a quarter. Round six is when things clicked for Tom; although sporting a sore lip from an accident earlier in the week, he went in hard for the ball and managed to get boot-to-ball on a number of occasions while under heavy fire, even pumping out a hand-ball as he was brought to ground by a pressure tackle. A great effort this season Tom; with a season under his belt we look forward to seeing his development in GEORGE BROOKER New to the club in 2017, having come across from the other game also called football, George was quick to adapt to the rules and game style of junior AFL. His blistering speed and athleticism broke the lines, and his willingness to put his body on the line every week highlighted his intensity and dedication to the game. Round 10 against Moore Park saw George light up the stat sheet, stepping up his tackle count and possessions. We hope to see George back next year to make use of his athleticism and speed on the bigger field for U11s! FINN DERMODY Finn returned this season transformed from a slightly reluctant tackler to an absolute beast, hence being awarded best defender. Often you would find Finn lurking on the wing with his red and black saw-tooth mouthguard. He was always ready to either receive a quick possession out of the centre or apply a bearhug tackle on his opponents; pinning both arms and often drawing a free kick! In round 10 the bear really awoke against a gritty Wests team, with Finn topping the team tackle count. Finn is a great listener at training and does his best in every drill or task. He is fast and skilful and has the potential to turn a match. OSCAR FICKLER A new recruit to the club in 2017, coming across from rugby, Oscar was our most improved player. Leveraging his height and strength, Oscar worked well in the ruck, but also built on his in-and-under style as he developed his game sense. He made good use of his body to win the contested ball and learned to run into space out wide. By the end of the season he improved his disposal and gained confidence in kicking to advantage. Round 14 is where Oscar took off, not only improving on his tackle count but getting his first clean shot on goal. With a year under his belt, we look forward to his potential further development in Huge progression as a new recruit to AFL, well done Oscar. HUGH GIBBONS Hugh was such an enthusiastic member of the Greyhounds community this year. He is a considerate player, often thinking quickly and disposing of the ball purposefully. This year he worked on his quick hands, pumping some effective hand-balls off to team-mates in space. His play under pressure was a real highlight, often the one to find a clever way to get the ball down the line in congested traffic. Always willing to give it a go, Hugh also moved through all positions to improve his game sense. This year his marking up improved considerably, applying pressure on his opponents by sheer presence and a significant improvement in his tackling. GABRIEL GILTINAN Gabe joined us this year from our sister club, Newtown Swans, and what a pickup. Although slight of frame, Gabe has a lion heart. Not one to shy away from a hard tackle, Gabe was great at interrupting opposition momentum, often finding himself wrapped around an opponent like linguini. His long-range kicking has become legendary and his athletic capacity a real strength. He has a tenacious will to get his hands on the red pill, and with his determination to move the ball, Gabe often took the fight all the way to the boundary This is where we have discovered his talent and new found nickname of Mr Banananah Man, popping goals from deep in the forward pocket. Gabe was runner-up in a tightly contested B&F. GLEBE JAFC 2017 YEARBOOK 39

40 HUGO GUASTELLA Coming off a B&F last year, Hugo was supercharged entering season 2017 and he proved a deserving winner of back-to-back awards. Hugo is a versatile player. He served us well in the back-line, took on opportunities to show his strength in the midfield, often dragging 3-4 opponents along with him before disposing to our forwards. His strength often sees him first out of scrimmages and his tackling intensity would scare opponents into a panicked hand-ball when they saw him coming! Hugo also likes to operate at CHF, dropping into the midfield to then bomb the footy through for some much-needed goals. Hugo is not only a great individual player, but shows real commitment to his fellow team-mates. In round six as captain, he gave every individual player a positive summary of their performance at the end of the game. Absolutely amazing leadership! LUKA HOVEY Luka had a bit of a stop-start run for the season, having to shake off some illness and then a soft tissue injury with his Achilles. But this didn t hold the young warrior back. Always present and consistent in the midfield, Luka shone through in our first win for the year in round 12 against Newtown. Knowing we couldn t field a full team with some key players absent, Luka applied pressure and kicked his second goal for the season. As the season progressed Luka also got himself into a rhythm with Hugo, Gabe and Keaton, often supplying them with clean delivery to enable clear shots on goal. Luka has strong hands and takes contested marks with ease. He won our best team player award for his team spirit. TOBIAS LINDSAY Tobias is one of our quiet achievers, who just rocks up and gets it done. He is reliable, tenacious and highly skilful. Although he doesn t usually say too much, he would always engage at training doing his best to improve. On game day Tobias was ever reliable down back, particular on kickouts. His is a great tackler and can quickly transition from defence to attack. His clean hands and strong kicks are always welcomed by the midfeld. However, his favourite position is in the forward pocket, where he enjoys shooting for goal, bagging three this season. Tobias best game came in round 14 where he lit up his stats sheet; the day he reached his 50-game milestone. Well done Tobias, we look forward to seeing you make 100! NOAH MACKENZIE Noah has been with the club since 2014 and started the year with a renewed intent. Working in his preferred positions in the backs and midfield, Noah was able to make his presence known with some rugged tackles and chase-downs. Noah has always had a reputation for his fierce defence and in full flight he can lift the team. Unfortunately, due to illness early in the season and an accident outside of footy leading to a broken wrist, Noah was only able to play two games. Hope you re on the mend for next year Noah, we look forward to seeing you back again! REMY MORROW Remy is always a spirited player, particularly at training, where he attacks every ball in dispute. He was one of the most improved at training, with good listening and quick correction of behaviour during skill drills. On game day Remy stepped up and was keen to support the team, with his speed and agility a real attribute that will no doubt represent a major strength as the fields get bigger and the play gets faster. In the last few weeks of the season Remy really lifted. This coincided with his 50th game in round 13 and then his most purposeful game in round 15, where he ramped it up again with strong tackles and insightful positioning leading to his first goal for the season. LACHLAN MURPHY Lachlan truly enjoys the spirit of the game and the mateship of his fellow team. He has been a major contributor to the social spirit of this team, forging many great friendships and amplifying that encouraging spirit that our team prides itself on. At the same time, he has developed as a player in intense contests. Keeping a cool head, Lachlan would always try, persist and improve his skills throughout the season. He took some strong contested marks and greatly improved his kicking this year. During a match, Lachlan could often be seen to pounce onto a nearby opponent when he heard the instruction from coach Matt to mark-up from the side lines. Good progress this season, well done Lachie! RIVER REID In River s first game back with the Blacks, she stepped and evaded defenders, bounced and kicked to the forwards in one of the plays of the season. River s attacking in-andunder style led to a number of clearances, as she developed her hand-passing out the back of the ruck, alongside her pivoting slingshot kick through the midfield. In round six against Drummoyne, River took a strong mark in the back-line and boomed one of her famous drop punts to the midfield. Her tenacity and purpose never wavered through the season, even after a few big tackles by Wests. Although River had the chance to play up forward, she always seemed comfortable to be in the work zone from CHB or in the midfield. Great effort playing in both the U10 and U12 girls teams, River, and congratulations for achieving the award for most consistent! JACKSON RUMPFF Jackson brought some home-grown skill and style to the club this year as a 2017 new recruit. Not having played junior AFL previously, Jackson applied a natural and effective style to his hand-balls and kicks. His development has been nothing short of outstanding; he was always keen at training to hone his skills then put what he learned into practice on game day. Affectionately known as Wacko Jacko by coach Matt, Jackson provided speed and accuracy to our midfield and forwards. He was a reliable set of hands often taking much-needed marks up forward. Although his preferred position is up front, he showed strength in his run-downs and tackles in the midfield. With a year of playing AFL completed, we look forward to his potential to develop in KEATON SAGGERS As one of the leaders in the Blacks, Keaton returned to 2017 with excitement and drive. Seeing a number of his mates in George, Jackson and Zach join the team this year, he was keen to help them settle in. There was never a game where Keaton left something in the tank, always pushing himself to the extreme. He often left the opposition guessing as he could effectively pivot and kick unexpectedly with his left foot. Keaton s speed and agility rescued the team from many danger situations and his long-range lob kicks turned defence into attack quickly. He often put his body on the line, sometimes dragging opponents forward with him. Keaton was solid in the backs, often stemming the flow of opponent forward-50 possession, but also managed to damage up front, using his accurate long-range kicking to top the team goal-kicking tally. 40 GLEBE JAFC 2017 YEARBOOK

41 U10s ZACHARY THAI Bringing with him leg speed and an appetite for tackles, Zach joined the Greyhounds in 2017 from Balmain Little As. We knew we could make use of his athleticism and competitive spirit, and Zach didn t disappoint. Within only a few games he had picked up the basic positions and key hand-ball and and kicking skills (even on the odd occasion running down the wing with a bounce or two, sometimes having to circle back to pick up the oval ball gone astray). As Zach s game matured through the season he was able to think more about where he needed to be to be effective. This played out in both his attacking and defensive game, as he developed a preference for palying forward pocket. Great start to your junior AFL career Zach and can t wait to see what 2018 brings! LUCA TRIGANZA Progressing on his game sense from last year, Luca improved on both his defensive and offensive game. Although his preferred position is fullback, he enjoyed moving into the midfield and even the forwards. This further developed his skills through the zones culminating in his first goal for 2017 against Newtown, which was also the Blacks first win for the season, and he was captain! Luca was a warrior in battling illness and injury through the season, coming back in round 15, two weeks after surgery. I am sure his parents had him in the hyperbaric chamber to accelerate his recovery. This did not hinder his willingness to apply pressure to the opposition or even tackle some of the bigger opponents. GLEBE JAFC 2017 YEARBOOK 41

42 U11s Coach s report & player profiles HEAD COACH SIMON TRACY COACH S REPORT If there is a single take out from the U season, it s that the future is bright at Glebe. We started the season with 54 players. That s more than we had in 2016, and a record for Glebe for the age group. Our training was constrained by the monsoonal conditions that greeted us for the pre-season, but we adapted and managed to add a weekly fitness session on Tuesdays to our training regime. After years of successfully ensuring our teams were equal (three teams making finals and a nail-biting intra-club prelim last year) we divisionalised this year, with a div 1 and two div 2 teams. Peculiarities of the draw and evenness of the competitions aside, it was a very successful year all-round. The Blacks and Whites finished sixth and seventh on equal wins, and had a seesawing match against each other. The Hounds went all the way to the grand final, and despite playing well, narrowly went down. More importantly than ladder positions, we had three teams who trained well, listened to coaches and improved their footy every week. And a lot of new friendships were formed. That s why we play footy. The success of the U season was due to the patience and hard work of our coaches, assistants, managers and parent volunteers. A massive thank you to Greg Smith (Blacks) and Mike Donaldson (Whites) for your commitment to the teams, getting them ready and inspired to play good footy every week. They played some tough games against good opposition in occasionally trying circumstances, and our players didn t take a backward step. Their development not just as players, but as a team, was thanks to you and your coaching. Thank you. To our U11 virgin managers, Adam Daniels and Ross Baker, thank you. There is a lot to learn and know and do as manager, and starting with U11 is a big first step. You ve learned a lot as the year has progressed (volunteer role cards! umpire reports! team sheets!) and done a great job. Thank you. Mike Cooney, who was at every training session running the popular fitness session and trying to decipher my overly complicated drills, and Cam Day who provided desperately needed footy smarts and magnet-spinning on game day, thank you. The season was better with you blokes involved. Amanda Oates and Toni Wynne, our ground managers extraordinaire, thank you. And to the runners, water carriers, first-aiders, sausage turners, sour strap sellers and everyone who helped pack stuff away after the late game, thank you. To the U11 players, well done on a fantastic season. You are a really great group, not just of footy players, but of people. You have played the game with enthusiasm and passion, but more importantly you have shown sportsmanship, commitment and embraced what our club is all about. I have had a great time coaching you, you should be very proud of yourselves, I certainly am. Thank you for a great year, I hope to see you all again in U12s in Go Greyhounds.

He is fast, has a big tank, sublime skills but, most importantly, Nick is competitive. Like, really competitive. Seriously, he s so competitive. His work on the ball around the ground is relentless, he wins it in the clinches and on the outside, bangs it forward and runs to the next contest. Nick is also handy going forward or back as required. Nicks hair is consistent, reliable and suitably competitive. Great work Nick. CHARLIE BASS-TRACY Charlie BT had a shortened season after breaking his arm in round one taking a mark he was filthy the ump didn t pay. A season highlight occurred during his return match against Easts when he kicked a goal and his team-mates ran to get around him. Charlie is a true team player and plays a key utility role in whatever position he is required, and consistently does the important things like shepherd and spoil and works to bring his team-mates into the game. His hair performed beautifully this year, in particular his devastating cow lick. Awesome job Charlie. LUCA COONEY Luca owned the wing this year. He worked it hard with relentless run up and down the ground, but it was his rock solid contribution to THE WALL where he really made an impact. When the ball went into our forward line Luca took position to win it when it came out and send it back with interest. He is an excellent mark, and a long, accurate kick. When Luca was moved into the forward line he could also snaffle a goal. He copped a cut over his eye late in the season that gave him a cool scar and heaps of cred, but led to him wearing a helmet and we lost sight of his cropped, humble-yet-dapper do. Fantastic season Luca. ARCHIE CHRISTIE-DAY Archie started most games on the wing where his hard running was a real asset to the team, but it is his ability to come flying out of contests with the ball or take it on the outside and find a target forward with pinpoint accuracy that he came into his own. Archie is an extraordinarily good kick and was instrumental to the success of the team whether he was playing on the wing, kicking out from defence or going forward for a goal. The only thing more impressive than his kick was his incredible hair which required constant sweeping back into place, particularly after he kicked a goal. Well done Arch, a great season. NICK EDWARDS Nick E started the season playing back as the coach looked for the positions that best suited the players. It didn t take long to see that Nick at fullback was not just a good position for him, but for the whole team. It wasn t just the significant number of goals he stopped that was impressive, it was his ability to rebound into attack, to win contests against opponents and to know when to leave the goals square and when to stay back and defend that made him so valuable. And he can play forward and on the ball as well. Nick s hair is simply magnificent and deserves its own profile and grand final medal. Congratulations Nick, a fantastic year. RUPERT GILLIES Rupert spent most of the year in the forward pocket, where he developed into a dangerous crumbing forward. He was integral to the forward structure, and was most damaging when he found space to run onto the loose ball or take courageous marks when it came in long. Rupert is a committed team player who is willing to play in different positions when coaches spin the magnets and he made contributions in the mids and back as well. Rupert has luxurious golden locks that tumble effortlessly to his shoulders and move hypnotically in the breeze. Well done Rupert, a very good year. JACK JURY Jack had a breakout year in He has always been a good player, but this year his confidence lifted as he took control of his place in the team. He has an attitude off the field that is respectful and quiet, making him popular with team-mates and coaches alike, but he seems to grow a metre taller when he crosses the line. He is courageous and skillful and able to win the ball, duck under or around tackles and kick important goals. His hair is outstanding, with a wonderful windswept quality. A special season Jack, great work. WILL KENNY Will kicks goals. This profile could finish there. It s what he does. He leads, he demands the ball, he has the best set shot routine in the U11 comp, period. And he kicks goals. The only thing more impressive than his goals is his marking. Will can pull them down with his fingertips, take them on the chest, or out in front. Will takes marks. Pleasingly, Will is learning to bring team-mates into the game by looking for the player in the better position to kick the goal. Will has unruly yet charming hair. Well done Will. GLEBE JAFC 2017 YEARBOOK 43

44 FRANK LEWIS Frank played a very specific role in the Hounds team, as a tagging defender. Frank would often be given the job on the opposition s best forward, or even on their best defender, and has a great record of stopping their influence. He is athletic, disciplined and single-minded when he is given a job. One thing Frank is never reminded to do is to mark up, because he always knows who his opponent is, where they are and he always makes a contest, earning him his opponent s ire and his coach s respect. His also has a wonderful unkempt mop and would rock a man-bun. Well done Frank, great season. ALEC LONGVILLE Alec is a beast. Alec wins the contested ball. Every time. He s not reckless or unfair, he just doesn t know another way than to get the ball. He has been a stalwart of the Hounds stingy defence this year, and is the go-to person when someone needs shutting down. But he loves getting to play on the ball where he can run and get on the inside of the contest where he feels most at home getting bumped and wrestled. His marvellous hair is a combination of spun gold and tousled silk. A sensational season, great work Alec. ROWAN O CONNOR Rowen started the season playing defence where his big body and hardness at the footy made him at home, but when he started swapping into the ruck during in the second half his game went to another level. What Rowan gives the team is some additional grunt, but he also shows smarts when he stands over the ball protecting it from three opposition players until the cavalry arrive, or dishing off a hand-pass to a running player. Rowan s hair is well coiffed with an Elvis-like quality. Well done Rowan, great season. LOUIS QUAYLE Louis had an interrupted season after fracturing his wrist in a non-footy-related incident, however he made a name for himself as a strong-bodied half-back who could tackle hard and crash a pack, with one special occasion in a big game he came down with a mark with players falling like nine pins around him. Louis kept his hair well styled and performing spectacularly throughout the season. Great Job Louis. RAPH QUOYLE Raph brings a calm confidence to the team that masks his toughness at the footy. He is equally at home forward and back and uses his ability to read the play to his advantage. When he plays in defence Raph keeps his opponents in check and accountable, and when he goes forward he creates opportunities for himself to kick goals, or bring team-mates into the game. He is wellliked by his team-mates, possibly due to his wonderful shock of well-styled and beautifully maintained hair. Sensational season Raph. CHARLIE ROBERTS Charlie R joined the Greyhounds in 2017, but brought with him a long football pedigree that saw him instantly make an impact in the team. Charlie played most of the season switching between centre half forward and on the ball, and was able to move into the ruck as well when required. Charlie is a tough competitor, a beautiful kick and an outstanding overhead mark. His game against Drummoyne at Five Dock was extraordinary, and an individual highlight of the season. His hair is understated and well disciplined. Congratulations Charlie, a great season. FELIX RUGGE-PRICE Felix played much of the season as the number one ruckman where his height and athleticism enabled him to win the tap, give the midfield first use of the ball and back up by continuing to play on the ball. Felix is an excellent mark and kick, and is competitive and tough in the contest. Later in the season Felix would drop back to centre half-back where he proved a weapon as a rebounding defender. Felix wears his hair high, in an enthusiastic quiff. Another great season Felix, well done. CHARLIE SARAH Charlie S rounds out the trio of Hounds Charlies, was one of our most dynamic forwards. Charlie has good leg speed, and uses it to get himself deep into the forward line to add extra numbers around the ball, and deliver his trademark half turn and snap at goal. Charlie was also influential up the ground when given the opportunity where he made an impact on the wing or on the ball. Charlie s hair was meticulously maintained, and he seemed to appear at training with it cut every other week. Congratulations Charlie on a super season. BILL SMITH Bill showed once again this season how he can influence a game by imposing his will. He played most of the season as a strongbodied ruck rover bumping opponents from the contest or as a bullish centre half-forward holding THE WALL and sending the ball into our forwards with his famous one-handed ball drop. When needed, Bill was sat at fullback where he seemed to take every foray by the opposition towards goal personally and he truly made the last line of defence our first line of attack. Bill s hair is unpretentious and honest. Great work Bill, a fantastic year. DAWSON WILLIAMS Dawson had another very good year in 2017, and while he was hampered with injury he showed great courage to push through as a rebounding defender. His trademark running was on display, partly because he s fast and partly because you couldn t miss his fluro green boots. Dawson was also able to push forward in a defensive role and pinch a handy goal as well. Dawson sports a well-groomed thicket of hair. Great season Dawson. 44 GLEBE JAFC 2017 YEARBOOK

45 U11s BLACKS LUCAS ARDAGNA Lucas as a first-year player in the ruck never stopped trying, providing good-quality taps to the team s advantage. He is very committed and not afraid to go and get the ball and hand-ball to players outside. Though tall, he is often seen busting the pack and getting the ball down the ground. He is determined and loves to play in the ruck without resting; Lucas a ruckman of the future. ALEC CAMPBELL Alec was a very consistent performer playing largely in the back-line. He was desperate in defence giving full commitment to his role and was also happy to do the best thing for the team. If he continues with the game, he will develop into a reliable and strong player with the ability to get lots of the ball; Alec a reliable and tough defender. CHARLES CURCIO Charles displayed signs of a nifty and determined forward, and often in the right place to receive the ball to kick goals. He likes to run and presents a good target for his team-mates. When asked what the team s challenges are during the game, he often hits the nail on the head. Charles was always keen to play in the centre; Charles the roving half-forward dishing off and kicking goals HENRY DANIELS Henry is one of those players every team needs: reliable, consistent, with a nononsense approach and happy to do whatever s best for the team. This year he held down the fullback role very admirably, repelling many a forward incursion from the opposition. Henry was often seen at the bottom of the pack putting his body on the line; Henry the next super fullback. AIDAN DAVID Aidan was enthusiastic all year playing back, forward and in the ruck. This year he was more determined, getting the ball and shelling out many a hand-ball. Aidan was always up for a challenge and has a desire to learn and put it into action. This year saw further development in his skills and versatility and unfortunately broke his arm at the last training session; Aidan a ruck/full forward player. GRIFFIN FERRARA Griffin was the go-to man to fill a gap anywhere on the field and very willing to do so. He played a key role in the back-line with his tough, straight-down-the-line approach. Griffin developed into a run-with player stopping a number of opposition players, which he did very effectively against Wests; Griffin the tagging run-with player. ZACH GRANT Zach started slowly but found his feet in the second half of the year, moving from the back-line to the forward-line. On a number of occasions, he took it upon himself to liven up the game with his bullocking attacks on the ball in the forward half, setting up goals and kicking the odd one himself. It was good to see his skill level improve during the year; Zach the tough key forward. ISAAC HOLMES Isaac took an aggressive approach to his game which was exactly what was required in the back-line. He often won the hard ball and took off for a run down the ground. His approach saw him on the ground with an injury or two his dad wasn t too concerned. Isaac never gave up surprising many opposition players with his tackling; Isaac the attacking back-line player. JOSH LOGAN Josh is a robust straight-through player who played is best football at centre half-back. He loved the contested-ball situation, never giving up. Josh has this ability to not only get the ball, but bust the pack and take off on long and decisive runs setting up many attacking raids. As a newcomer, he quickly immersed himself into the game; Josh a key position player in the future. THOMAS MOSS Thomas running game this year went to a new level. He was all over the ground either chasing opponents, making position, or setting up play. Thomas grew in confidence taking on some of the leadership role and willing to offer some helpful advice to his team-mates. This year he improved his positional play with his exceptional running; Thomas a key running player. JASPER REUCASSEL Jasper, a newcomer with a personality and a willingness to learn, saw him develop his skills very quickly. It didn t take Jasper long to fit into the team and game, making consistently good contributions. He started out in the back-line and, after some suggestions to the coach and some good games, was moved into the centre and forward; Jasper the crafty back-line player. ZAC SHERRATT Zac had a bit of a stop-start year, but every game he played he gave 110%. He is a quiet and gritty player willing to take any role. Zac was often seen coming out of the pack handballing to a team-mate in better position. He improved during the year, getting his body over the ball and making many long runs; Zac a future onballer. LUCA SMITH Luca developed his link play being able to get the ball from the back-line and setting up many forward attacks. This year he became tougher over the ball and making many effective tackles. His running and positional play improved with numerous passes into the forward line resulting in goals and kicking a few himself, including seven against Newtown; Luca a key link player and goalsneak. PARKER STEVENSON Parker, who is slightly built, showed no fear when playing in the back-line. On many occasions, his determination and tenacity won the day either getting the ball out to a team-mate or tackling the opposition. This year saw Parker grow in confidence in his ability influence the game, which was recognised by his team-mates; Parker a gun attacking back-line player. GLEBE JAFC 2017 YEARBOOK 45

46 OLIVER WALLIS Oli played all over the ground this year trying in every position. These efforts were rewarded with Oli kicking his first career goal, a great achievement recognised by his team-mates. Oli often committed himself to the ball, delivering hand-balls to team-mates. This helped the team setup a number of forward attacks and goals; Oli an inside hand-ball player. RORY WATTERS Rory certainty lifted his game this year with his ability to run and make position. He also kept improving his hand-ball skills and delivery. In the second half of the year he became a solid performer in the back-line, often getting ball out and running forward to create opportunities. Rory is always wanting to improve and learn, great attributes for future development; Rory the running winger. SEB WEBBER Seb was our go-to man in the forward-line and, as a result, he was the leading goalkicker for the year. He has this ability to find space and the ball. Seb is a skilful player with a good mark and a thumping kick, often kicking goals from the 50m arc (okay, it just seemed like it). He is a quiet and effective achiever for the team; Seb a future centre half-forward. VELAYUS WYNNE Velayus played very good and consistent football all year, even when injured. He played out of the centre and was always in-andunder getting the ball out. Velayus is a player who never stops, always looking to get the ball to a team-mate. This year he improved his positional play and marking, making a significant contribution to the game and team; Velayus a key on-baller. WHITES MAX BAKER Sore feet, can t run was the pre-game SMS. His assignment: Zimmerframe duties in the forward pocket, perhaps propping up the point post. Well that was the theory, but 10 minutes later there s Max is chasing the ball on the wing. Against the tallest kid in the comp, he s in the air, stretched tall, tapping the ball. With standout games against Easts, Wests and Drummoyne, it was clear that when everyone else stopped and had given up, Max stepped up and shone. OSCAR BRISTOW Oscar was superb at the centre bounce with his ruck work. In our game against Drummoyne in round six, he tapped the ball softly down to Will who hand passed to Matisse, who kicked to Nelson, who gathered the ball on the bounce, rounded and goaled from 30m out. Six seconds on the clock and everyone was agog. Everything clicked that day for Oscar. Unfortunately, this was last game for the season due to a scheduled operation awaits. RILEY BROWN Au fait with football (soccer), Riley decided to give AFL a go. At training, we quickly realised that Riley can kick. Fast forward to round three against Concord, Riley was sensational off half-back with his speed and superb kicking. He improved with each game and while the big sticks eluded Riley, it didn t matter; he was always the loudest when it came to singing the club song. JAKE DONALDSON One minute Jake s squeezing a goal out of a pack or stopping a goal down back. Coupled with a massive tank, he just gets better as the game gets on (perhaps relishing the chance of a fifth quarter). However, it s the close-in work that he loves best: tackling his opponent, talking, paddling the ball, talking a bit more, or shooting out a creative hand-pass to open up the play. There was no better example of this than against Drummoyne at St Luke s where his slick hand-passes and kick directly resulted in three goals. JAKE DOPIERALA Jake is a tackling machine. In round one, every time Maroubra s speedster touched the ball, there was Jake launching a tackle to the delight of the crowd. As the season went on, he wisely donned a helmet before walking on the paddock. He s a very dependable mark either up front or down back. His goal from a mark in the forward pocket in round six was very deserving. However, his relentless tackling was key to our domination of Easts in round 15. JAMES FULTON Off the field, he asks questions and actually listens to the coach. Tick. At the end of the game, he s the first to start up the three cheers for the opposition and umps. On the paddock, he s a well-disciplined headover-the-ball player who loves his footy. His tackling, read of the play and trusty left boot saved us many times. In the dying minutes of the season and a (slim) six-goal margin, James was finally let loose up front. Minutes later he marked directly in front and kicked truly. NELSON HARRIS Nelson was one of our first-year rookies from soccer. He arrived with an abundance of athleticism. By the second quarter of round one, it had all clicked. By round six he was in another league: dashing around players, bouncing the ball at full tilt with a posse of opponents in pursuit, all banging into each other like empty cans of coke tied to the back of a speeding bike. He was consistently a source of multiple goals and can break open a game like Buddy or Carey. After the first game he commented on the way home, Dad, I m not going back to soccer. I think he s found his sporting home. AARON HOENIG Wow, what a season! When everything is falling apart and the opposition is rampaging towards goal, there on the last line, time and time again, was Aaron. Playing CHB or FB, he organised our defence. His read of the play was superb and his task was thankless. He did sneak forward on occasions at crucial moments and when he did, like against Maroubra, he booted two goals. When a FB does that, it is devastating. A brilliant season. JAKE JONES New to footy, Jake joined the team and very quickly found the ball in his hands. Super keen to kick a goal but still honing his kick, Jake would try to dash with the ball towards goal, but the umps and the rules held him back. After many attempts (slightly less than Lewis Jetta), in round 15 against Easts, it all clicked: GOAL! The crowd s cheer and his smile said it all. WILLIAM KILLEN Will s season? Awesome! Will can play multiple roles. He blanketed Maroubra s best player in round one. He perfectly roves the ruck and slices through traffic. He takes the game on and loves a goal and is deadly by foot or hand. He ripped apart Maroubra in round nine and went on a six-goal frenzy in our last game of the season against Wests to surge to the top of the goal-kicking ladder. Not bad for a kid who s playing up a grade. 46 GLEBE JAFC 2017 YEARBOOK

47 U11s ASHER LEWIS Asher was a key to our Maginot Line. His read of the play, strong tackles and quick hands to a team-mate meant the ball rarely got past him. He s saved the team many times, none more so than against a rampaging Wests in round 11. Asher is also a good kick of the footy and can easily play at either end of the ground. MATISSE LIU Her delivery by foot: accurate and silky. A disposal never wasted. Against Easts in round three, her foot passes to Darcy and Patrick brought us back into the game. In round four, surrounded by a cluster of players, she squeezed through a quick-thinking goal. However, it s on the wing that Matisse is at her creative best, often kicking the ball to James Schmidt, Darcy, Nelson or Will for an avalanche of goals. The Whites were very fortunate to have both Matisse and Issy in the team. We ll miss them both. ISABELLE MILNE With slick hand-pass skills and trademark side-step, Issy is elusive in traffic. Playing off half-back, her footy nous was crucial in us fending off a fast-finishing Drummoyne for an unexpected (awesome) win in round six. Unfortunately, aside from an appearance in round 13, injuries kept Issy on the sidelines. Next season. DARCY MOLOUGHNEY G day, where do you normally play? Back-pocket, the reply. Down by lots and half way through our first game, inspiration was needed up front. Darcy, with a bagel under his career goal tally was sent to full forward. Boom. Darcy s four-goal haul had fans in rapture and inspired the team. And he hasn t looked back. Cracking games against Maroubra and Easts saw him kicking goals from straight in front, tight angles or roving off the back of the pack. Superb. JAMES SCHMIDT Smooth. With the ball in his hands, James is always cool and composed. Whether it s kicking in from full-back, sliding past two opponents tight against boundary line or slotting goals on the run from the flank. James is never a show-pony, he just delivers when it counts. His three last-quarter goals against Wests in round five and dashing runs through the centre were gold. LINUS STAFFORD When the showboating of others falls apart and the opposition is ramping forward, time and time again, sliding in front of his opponent to mark the ball and saves the day (again) will be Linus. His read of the play and work in defence is faultless. In round 14, Linus celebrated 50 games with the Greyhounds and capped it off with a best on ground performance. Well done. LUCA TRENT With each game and Coach Cooney training session, Luca became fitter. Luca was always one of our key ruckmen, but in the last game of the season, against wild Wests, surgery, injury and other commitments meant that Luca would be our only ruckman. How did he go? He smashed it! Tackles, taps forward, taps behind it all clicked. Luca s ruck work was key in our 98-point turnaround against Wests. Top stuff. ANGUS YOUNG His long bombs at goal from deep on the boundary line certainly got our attention in round four. Two games later, we were back to St Luke s and with the game in the balance it was Angus long goals that got us across the line in our epic against Drummoyne. His sublime tap to Darcy at the back of a pack mark, that allowed Darcy to stream into goal against Easts was a key catalyst for a goal avalanche against a side we had never beaten. TOM ROBERTS Out of everyone in the team, Tom s role is always pencilled in first. His height, speed and bamboozling side-steps and twists allow him to slice through traffic and make him the perfect ruck rover. Tom can certainly boot the ball. Case in point, his long-range goal against Easts in round three. However, his tagging role on Wests #15 in our last game was the difference between us scoring 100 points as opposed to two. Unpredictable, devastating and with further room to improve. Watch this space. GLEBE JAFC 2017 YEARBOOK 47

48 U12 Division 2 Coach s report & player profiles COACH DIETER HOCHULI COACH S REPORT The year brought together 20 enthusiastic players, with seven newcomers to the club, including two playing their debut seasons. They formed a team that played an exciting brand of football built around a high-pressure game featuring spirited contests, and fast ball movement. COACH MANAGER RUNNER Dieter Hochuli Mark Seiver Brendan Dessent The season climaxed on a spectacular spring day at Olds Park, with the U12/2 Greyhounds winning the premiership against rivals Canada Bay. The season was peppered with numerous highs, a few lows and was a great journey for the team s supporters. There were numerous individual highlights throughout the year. Darcy Dessent showed his mettle with three outstanding finals performances, leading from the front when the stakes were high with his tenacious attack on the ball and skilful contests. Brodi Williams capped off a great year winning the B&F, as well as being awarded best-on-ground in the grand final, using his pace and skills to routinely break the lines. Ben Champion terrorised defences with his sure hands and deadly foot skills, setting up many goals when not kicking them himself. Liam Read provided the early season highlight, when he played his 100th game in the black and white, a sensational accomplishment. While winning the final game was a great achievement, the team had been formidable all year. That they developed as a team was deeply satisfying, and a testament to the hard work the boys put in at Jubilee at training. The grand final was a fitting end to the season, with the emphatic result a tribute to the fact that all 20 players made valuable contributions on the day. Every player stood up when it was their moment to play their part. The looks on their faces at the end of the game were a stark contrast to the scene two weeks earlier, when Canada Bay had played them off the park. Even one week earlier, when a narrow come-from-behind three-point win in the preliminary final had seen them through to September action, the realisation that they had more to give was apparent among the playing group. The team were lucky enough to have the active support of a terrific group of parents and carers, who helped out in a wide range of roles to make it possible for the boys to play. In particular, BJ Dessent delivered numerous tactical and motivational messages in a typically forthright manner in his role as match-day runner. Mark Seiver carried out the role of manager with aplomb, efficiently taking on the hardest job on the team, managing players, parents and coaches to ensure things ran smoothly. A season that started with the message to do the simple things well, and commit to winning individual contests, finished with the same message. The boys played with great skill, spirit and tenacity, improving their skills on a weekly basis and were fortunate enough to reap the rewards at the end of the year.

49 U12s Div 2 JOSHUA AHIE-SLATTERY Josh is an unflappable defender who gives his opponents nothing, a great competitor who habitually used his pace and awareness to rebound from half-back. Always in control of the situation, his reliability and flexibility made him a valuable asset all over the ground. JAZPER ALEWOOD Jaz was one of the twin towers up front, providing a marking target in our forward 50. A strong-marking forward with vice-like hands who is a great kick for goal, he regularly put us on the scoreboard when it was most needed with his set-shots and goals on the run. He also has a terrific habit of making even the simplest mark look spectacular! Jaz played a strong leadership role this year, enthusiastically supporting and motivating his team-mates. OLIVER BERESFORD Oliver set up numerous attacks from halfback, where his game sense and awareness always bought him time to make good decisions. In addition to his clever reading of the play, his great ball use made him a creative defender. Rarely beaten in one-onone contests, he turned defence into attack time and time again with his intercept marking and fast ball movement. WILLIAM BRINE Will contributed all over the field as a key position forward and back, as well as in the ruck. A no-nonsense tall utility option, his willingness to plug holes wherever and whenever he was needed made him important for team structures. Will really came into his own as the season progressed, using his strength and determination to win the ball in the air and on the ground. TOM CAMPBELL Tom s attack on the ball made him equally effective whether playing forward or back. A committed goal-sneak with great ball skills and attacking attitude, he kicked some spectacular goals this year. He was also behind numerous score involvements, when he set up hand-ball chains in our forward 50. His strength at half-back when asked to play there was also impressive, when he used his strong foot skills to get the team out of trouble after he won possession. BENJAMIN CHAMPION Ben was the leading goal-kicker in the competition, a statistic that only tells part of his season s story. He set up many goals for others with his silky skills and penetrating left boot, and threatened defences every time he took the field. The team got great rewards when they delivered the ball to the player who has the cleanest hands in the competition. He was always composed on the field, leading from the front with his poise and commitment. DARCY DESSENT Darcy was at home in the engine room, revelling the pressure he put opposition midfielders under if they won the ball. Very hard in the contests, he could be relied on for his fierce second efforts when the ball was in dispute. He was ever dangerous in front of goal, with his tackling and run winning him many free kicks. A no-nonsense footballer, he had an outstanding finals series where he set the standard for the rest of the team with his relentless commitment and endeavour, and was judged player of the finals. JAKE EVANS Jake was fierce in the clinches and an absolute terrier when the ball was in dispute. Playing with strength and tenacity that belied his stature, his willingness to get to the bottom of contests and use his endurance and speed to advantage. A consummate team player, he was always willing to put his body on the line to win the hard ball. MAMADOU FAYE Mo s effervescent personality was reflected in his energetic and creative approach to footy. At home as a ruckman, midfielder, or key position player, his work-rate meant that he was always an enthusiastic contestant every time he ran onto the field. One of the most familiar sights this year was to watch him streaming into our forward line from the centre to kick one of his trademark long-distance goals. Vocal at the breaks, he showed great leadership on and off field all season to help bring his team-mates into the game. GLEBE JAFC 2017 YEARBOOK 49

50 CHARLIE FENELEY Charlie played multiple roles with aplomb this year, providing a tall option up forward and back. Extremely good below his knees for a tall player and strong in the air, his attack on the ball continued to improve as the season wore on. He stood out with his strong rebounding off the half-back line and capacity to find team-mates in heavy traffic. DECLAN FITZPATRICK Declan proved to be a natural ball magnet in his first year playing Aussie rules. He brought enormous enthusiasm to our midfield as he used his explosive pace to burst from contests with the ball, demonstrating a natural aptitude for kicking a goal. His understanding of the game grew quickly as found creative ways to torment his opponents. An outstanding rookie season. JACK GULLY Jack was an elusive half-forward who had a knack of getting into good positions and kicking important goals. More importantly, he worked hard to bring his team-mates into the game with his one-percenters, applying shepherds and tackles to help trap the ball in the forward-line. He also flourished when he pushed into the middle, where he was able to exploit his pace and agility to set up attacks. JACK HARRIS Jack brings an outstanding pressure game to his role as a fast-running midfielder. He leads from the front on the field and sets an example at each contest. A broken finger in round 15 threatened to curtail his season, but he came back for our grand final where he showed his importance to the team structure, winning contests all over the ground with his relentless tackling and running. Highly skilled, he creates opportunities for his team-mates with his creative use of the ball and hard-ball gets. FELIX HOCHULI A booming left-foot kick and sure pair of hands, Felix thrived in his first season of Aussie rules. He improved each week as he grew in confidence and delivered the ball to his team-mates with precision and accuracy. His season looked over when he broke his collarbone in round 11, but he recovered in time to bravely play a pivotal role in defence in our last two finals. Another great rookie season. LIAM READ The other of our twin towers in front of goal, Liam s strong body work and smart ball use playing out of the goal square were critical to our success. A clever footballer who made the most of his opportunities to kick important goals, usually from his strong marks. Good below his knees, he contested strongly to create opportunities for our crumbers when not winning the ball himself. Liam provided one of the team highlights this year when he ran out for his 100th game against Penshurst at Olds Park. MAX RIDER Max brings enormous skill and energy to every game, using his speed and endurance to win the ball all over the field. A tenacious tackler, his pressure on opposition midfields was a major reason for team success this year. While his defensive side proved his major asset, he also used the ball cleverly to create numerous scoring opportunities. His mental strength and determination in the grand final set the tone for the team and were a massive part of our success in the last game of the year. ZACK SEIVER A natural defender, Zack played numerous lock-down roles on dangerous small forwards, his efforts characterised by strong contests and close checking. He was one of the drivers behind our miserly defence, leading with his never-say-die attitude. Strong by hand and always ready to rebound, his habits of playing in front and reading the ball coming in meant he was always a tough opponent for opposition forwards. PATRICK THOMAS Put simply, Paddy gives 100% effort 100% of the time. A tenacious and spirited midfielder, he consistently harangued his opponents whenever they had the ball, and used his pace to stream away from them after he had won it. Continually breaking the lines with run-and-carry to set up attacks with his left foot, he really showed his importance in the finals series when he strung together three great games. ARCHIE THOMSEN Archie s rock-solid defence was a major reason for the team s success this year. He was rarely beaten by opponents and launched numerous attacks by winning the ball through his pressure acts and clever reading of the play. Ever reliable in whichever position he was asked to play, his strength and commitment at each contest were key features of his game. BRODI WILLIAMS Brodi dominated the opposition each week, winning the ball and driving it forward relentlessly. His tenacity and sure hands made him a damaging player regardless of what role he played. His run-and-carry created weekly highlights, as he used his pace and great evasive skills to run past the outstretched arms of opponents. Always looking to play attacking footy, he was a worthy B&F winner and was awarded best-on-ground in the grand final. 50 GLEBE JAFC 2017 YEARBOOK

51 U12 Division 3 Coach s report & player profiles U12s COACH ANDY TWINE COACH S REPORT Very healthy recruitment numbers for the U12 age group this year presented the opportunity to field two teams. However, this also meant that 2017 was always likely to be a tough year for the Div 3 team, who often found themselves out-sized and less-experienced than the opposition. With around a third of our players new to footy, the first few games saw a heavy reliance on the more senior players, and with a relatively narrow range of personnel who were confident playing in the key roles. As a result, our season started off with some big losses, several of which were by the mercy rule. Nevertheless, as the season progressed, it was fantastic to see the seasoned players standing tall and taking responsibility for bringing the team together, while many of the newer players made significant leaps in development from week to week. Training sessions and game time enabled them to improve key skills and decision-making, take on new responsibilities, or build a greater confidence on the ball. Notwithstanding, even though the skills and strategy may have taken a while to get going, a common thread right from day one was the effort, intensity and determination the boys showed every game, from bounce to final siren, which was the subject of many compliments from several opposition coaches. Our win against Newtown in round seven was a watershed moment, giving the whole team a huge lift, and a just reward for their perseverance and evidence of their collective spirit and tenacity. Even though the team suffered a number of heavy defeats, the boys never let their heads drop, always gave their maximum effort and even staged some memorable comebacks during the latter half of the season. Although ultimately losing by a single point (against a team that had beaten us by almost 15 goals earlier in the season) our comeback against Cronulla in round 13 won t be forgotten in hurry. The flipside to a hard year is that the boys have been well and truly tested each and every game, and in response have shown excellent sportsmanship, endeavor and spirit, to pull together as a team. I m sure they will all be much the better players for having gone through such a tough season. COACH MANAGER RUNNER Andy Twine Stewart Osborne Mike Donaldson PRESENTATION AWARDS Best & fairest Will Sharp B&F runner-up Arthur Howard- White Best defender Ed Haslem Most consistent Sam Donaldson Most determined Cooper Twine Best team player Tom McGrath Rookie of the year Patrick Mitchell Leading goal-kicker Will Sharp/Owen Lloyd Shepherd AFL SYDNEY HARBOUR 2017 OUTSTANDING ACHIEVEMENT Will Sharp MILESTONES 100 Games Cooper Twine 50 Games Alexander Lawes Many thanks to all the parents who put their hands up for the various volunteer roles, whether in the canteen or waving the goal umpire flags, and particularly to Mike Donaldson, who showed exemplary patience as runner, and to both Cynthia White and Ben Haslem who assisted greatly by stepping in as first-aiders. Moreover, thanks to Stewart Osborne, who took on the managerial responsibilities with deceptive ease and whose support was greatly appreciated. It s been an absolute honour and a pleasure to have coached the boys this season, and to have seen their development into a team full of support and encouragement for each other, and a desire and determination not to let each other down. Although the record might say otherwise, these boys have been winners all season, simply by the way they ve played the game. GLEBE JAFC 2017 YEARBOOK 51

52 U12 Division 3 Coach s report & player profiles LUCA BEARDMORE Although with some experience from school footy, Luca was new to Glebe this year and, despite missing some matches through illness early in the season, developed into a key player at the heart of the team. Played his best footy using his natural athleticism to cover a lot of ground between ruck and defence, while his boundless energy also allowed him to launch bursting attacks forward. His clean-kicking skills were rewarded with a few booming goals over the season. ETHAN CARUSO Small in stature but enormous in heart, Ethan gave his all every week, chasing down the opposition, laying tackles and using second and third efforts to bring the ball away from the contest. Always determined to assist his team-mates with support running and shepherding or providing a forward option, Ethan has shown further improvement in his second year of footy. As Ethan develops his kicking and disposal skills to capitalise on his hard-won possessions, his game will improve even further. SAM DONALDSON One of the veterans of the team, and in his eighth year as a Greyhound, Sam took on the responsibility of being one of our two co-captains. He once again showed his strength and character at the heart of the team, bringing his team-mates together and leading the way with consistent performances in every position. His defiant performances in defence and attack were complemented by some excellent spells as ruckman, where he dominated the tap-downs for a couple of memorable quarters. Always dependable and determined, Sam never took a backward step all season. ED HASLEM After a strong first season last year, Ed came into 2017 with a very clear determination to develop his game and turned in committed and disciplined performances week after week. His anticipation and intelligent distribution, combined with leaps-and-bounds improvement in his kicking accuracy during the first few rounds, marked him as a natural full-back, which he rapidly made his own. Showed his versatility in more advanced positions later in the season, and showed he can kick goals also, snapping up four in the final four rounds. SAM HOWARD Sam played predominantly as a small forward this year, although often spent time in the rough-and-tumble of the back-line. Although often outsized and frequently outnumbered, Sam has the heart of a lion and was never afraid to put his body on the line for the team, picking up many knocks and scrapes for his troubles. His leading and selfless running gave his team-mates options moving forwards, and Sam s assist-count was among the highest in the team. ARTHUR HOWARD-WHITE Returning for his second year of footy, Arthur built on the enthusiastic and hard-running style that we saw last year, and added an even more determined and gutsy edge. Spent time using his pace on the wings before settling back into more central positions to make the most of his aggressive edge in packs, including some particularly good spells in the ruck. Great at carrying the ball and full-blooded in the tackle, an improvement in disposals would see him develop his game even further. His tough and persistent performances see him voted runner-up B&F. JACK KILBY One of our best in-and-under players, Jack always excels when playing as a rover around the ruck contest, following the ball around the oval and contesting in a pack. Great at chasing back and laying tackles, Jack s never been afraid of putting his body on the line for the team, and picked up a fair few knocks during the season, to go along with his high possession count. He also made valuable contributions as a forward, bagging a few sneaky goals up front, using his guile and pace to evade his markers. ARCHER KING Archer had a real breakthrough season. Watching rounds 3-7, you could see him consolidate his skills and approach each week, to mark a significant development in his game, and from there he maintained a high level for the remainder of the season. Having always been hard at the ball, and one of the best clearance players, his anticipation, positional sense and clean marking saw him claim many important possessions. While his raking long kicks created some of the best link play this year, driving the ball into the forward-line for goals. ALEX LAWES Always ready to follow the coach s instructions, Alex has proven himself a great utility, playing in pretty much every position on the park. Alex s reading of the game has improved out of sight, usually putting him in the right position to close down an opponent, to shepherd a team-mate or provide an option in the forward pocket. Alex notched his 50-game milestone this year with a great captain s display against Heathcote in round nine. OWEN LLOYD SHEPHERD Owen possesses a natural ability to read play and position himself to advantage, which came to the fore with some essential contributions in defensive positions this year. Above all, however, Owen loves to spend time up forward, with great movement and an uncanny knack for getting away from defenders to poach sneaky goals. Almost scored a goal a game to make him our joint top goal-kicker this season. 52 GLEBE JAFC 2017 YEARBOOK

53 U12s Div 3 WILL SHARP Returning after a year away, and performing a pivotal ruck-rover role, Will s attitude and application were exemplary this year, and his work-rate second to none. While always seeking to drive the team forward, Will also had the speed and desire to get back and cover when needed. One of the most effective tacklers in the team, Will s second, third and fourth efforts were wonderful to watch, while his surging runs and long-range goals were equally rewarding. Will takes out the B&F and joint top goal-kicker awards. HUNTER MACKENZIE Hunter missed the end of 2016 through injury, so it was great to see him return in the blackand-white guernsey this year. His calmness and confidence under the high ball buy him time, and mark him out as one of our best natural defenders, and he continued to ply his trade in those familiar full-back and central defensive positions, while also enjoying some runs further upfield. Sadly missed several games through the season also, but we were glad to have his cool head whenever possible. TOM MCGRATH One of the most consistent members of the team, Tom rarely played a bad match and also racked up the most appearances. A regular fixture in the heart of defence, he s made the centre half-back position his own, exhibiting speed and desire to close down the opposition players which, when coupled with his bravery in contact, has made him the foremost tackler in the team. With good vision and kicking accuracy to distribute the ball forward to spark our offensive forays, Tom has been an essential and dependable member of the team. JOSH MITCHELL Another newcomer and another great addition to the team, Josh s pace and work ethic were a huge asset. Bringing a well-established game sense from soccer, his footy skills and confidence under the ball developed very well during the season to allow him to become a key feature in the team organisation, making the left wing his own. Huge energy levels allowed him to track back and cover in defence, as well as launch bursting runs forward to act as a spare forward pocket. Josh also frequently took on the responsibility of tagging opposition danger men in a very effective first season. PATRICK MITCHELL Mirroring his twin brother on the left wing, Patrick took charge of the right, with his speed and work rate enabling him to cover large swathes of the oval each game. His intelligent running into space gave great options going forward, while also showing great responsibility to track back into defence when required, with great all-round impact. He also managed to sneak forward to slot some fine goals late in the season, Patrick caps off a great first year by taking the rookie of the year award. LUCA MORROW Another seasoned player, and a pleasure to coach, Luca is among the most consistent and dependable players in the team. Luca took some of the more memorable overhead marks of the season, his excellent positioning, timing and focus establishing him as one of our most effective defenders. He was very unfortunate to pick up an injury that kept him out for the last third of the season. His two goals against Easts during his very impressive round 11 performance were a particular highlight. ARCHIE OSBORNE As another newcomer to footy this season, Archie s initial trepidation gradually turned into an impressive determination at the ball over the course of the season. A good listener and always keen to follow instructions, his development was apparent each week as he added new skills and understanding of the game. With a great have-a-go attitude, Archie showed good promise and effectiveness during his stints in the ruck, while his greater anticipation of the game found him more and more at the heart of the action. An excellent start to his AFL career. SOREN TRAFFORD-JONES Soren was another newcomer to the sport, and although he struggled at first to get into games, gradually developed into an effective and committed player. Great at putting pressure on the ball-carrier, with full-blooded commitment in the tackle, Soren did his best work in the thick of the action. Won some important possessions throughout the year, to provide a platform for offensive play, including one of the tackles of the season in round 15 when he flattened an unsuspecting Easts centreman in full flight. Some additional focus on improving his ball disposal skills would bring another dimension to his game. COOPER TWINE Another long-standing Greyhound, entering his eighth year at the club, Coop brought up his 100th game milestone this year and acted as our second co-captain. Coop brought some muscular presence in the middle of the park, playing his best footy in the ruck and dominating some of the opposition ruckmen to frustration. Also contributed robust performances in defence and attack, shrugging off opposition players and launching bombing kicks into the forward line. Coop managed to bag a couple of memorable goals this season, particularly the first score in his milestone 100th game, shaking off his marker to burst clear on goal and slot home from a distance.

54 U12 Division Youth Girls Coach s report & player profiles COACH S REPORT Reflecting on the start of the inaugural Youth Girls U12 season, our list of players included more than two-thirds who had never played AFL! We had a range of ages from 8-12 and began the year with a big spread of capability and physical development. With most of the pre-season training sessions cancelled, we were challenged in our first few games by physically larger and more experienced teams. The players quickly became adept playing under siege-like conditions and two things became apparent with our playing style. One was our quickly developing scraggy, fighting-for-possession, type game. The second was the courageous approach and sense of fair team play the girls took into each contest. A positive team dynamic evolved. The girls were encouraging and supportive of each other. The physical nature of the game saw the girls bond quickly, but not to the detriment of their sense of just play. A highlight of the season was the euphoric cheer of Greyhound supporters when each of the teams had their first win post the gala day. For the Whites that came in round four and then round six for the Blacks (unfortunately for Newtown, they were the opposition on both occasions). With the confidence gained with more wins under our belt, it was great to see the girls self-belief grow over the season. The flowing game and quicker movement of the ball out of packs, the kicking and marking as well as the recovery from knocks and willingness to return to the game, showed a great maturing of the players. The girl s courageous defensive football, typically against more developed and experienced sides, morphed with winning and they evolved in their understanding and experience of playing AFL. The finals gala day was entertaining football and all the girls really showed how far they had come in the season and were now genuinely competitive. Our kicking, marking and hand-balling had clearly improved, and it was great to see our running play. The Blacks won two out of their four games in a really tough draw which included the ultimate winners, Canada Bay. Losing by only a few kicks to Maroubra, who had dominated their games through the season, showed how far the team had come. With Southern Power having to forfeit, the Whites suddenly had a chance at making it through, but it was still not to be an easy run. Winning three out of four games, they matched the second Maroubra team on win/loss basis but unfortunately percentage was in the Saints favour so we missed out. Thanks to all the parents and supporters for your help each week. You ve done a great job raising your daughters! The high standard of behavior, fair play and positive attitude shown at training and playing each week comes from you. Thanks also to the Four Wise Mikeys (Milne, Maher, Matthews and Schofield) for all of their assistance at training and warm-ups. Matt s special thanks To Sally Webb for her assistance and support throughout the year. Also, to Simon Thomsen for assisting with coaching duties while I was off. Ian s special thanks To Cris for her support and exceptional managerial skills, Susie for filling in as manager when Cris was away, Dave for filling in as manager when Cris and Susie were away, as well as taking on runner duties, and finally Kristen for all the amazing team photos.

55 U12s YG BLACKS PROFILES SYLVIE BICKNELL Physically Sylvie is the AFL player everyone wants in their team tall and strong with good hands and a solid understanding of the game. While her time with the Greyhounds was short it was also sweet. She had a great game, playing in the ruck and managing to kick a goal as well. She made a strong contribution and will be a key asset for us next season. ELYSE BURKE Elyse displayed an extraordinary work-rate all season and her achievements as B&F, leading goal-kicker and rep player are well deserved. She had a dominating presence in games and was critical in creating running plays, kicking into space to keep the ball moving forward and breaking through tackles. She often dictated play in the forward line and played a pivotal role leading the team from the ruck. Elyse set the standard for the rest of the team and was an inspirational leader who gave us a lot of hope in the first games when we were getting flogged. ISABELLA CIRILLO-REED Isabella played the season with awe-inspiring grit and determination. She was in the thick of the packs and played with a real bravery. Her courage in returning to play after receiving some hard knocks showed real character. She displayed great versatility playing up forward, down back and through the middle, with her fearsome tackling and great running game both to the fore. MAXINE HAWKINS Maxine was typical of the Braveheart spirit among our smallest but most courageous players. While she was developing her ballhandling skills early in the season, it was her fearless determination in tight at the contest that stands out. As the season developed so did Maxine s skills and movement of the ball out of the centre, creating opportunities for the rest of the team. Maxine s maturing AFL skill set and courageous play will make her invaluable in next year s team. MAYA KELLY Brave Maya was absolutely fearless this year. She consistently put her head over the ball in dispute to make opportunities for the Greyhounds. Her determined effort and courageous play makes her a well-deserved recipient of the most consistent player award. Maya shines in the forwards with an opportunity to set up and kick goals, she s fast and great at creating play. She will be a key player for next year s team. RORY MACDOUGALL We were lucky to secure Rory from the White team part way through the season. She was a critical addition to our line-up and quickly asserted herself, providing stability and strength across our midfield. Her added versatility across the forward- and back-lines, including kick-outs, and rotation in the ruck made a key difference in a number of games. She is a well-deserved winner of the Belle of the Ball award for her commitment to the game, the team and the club and she will be a key leader of the team next season. JULIA MAHER Our pocket rocket Julia is the smallest player in the entire U12 YG competition but she proved time and again that size doesn t always matter. Her fearless persistence and determination was evident as she chased down girls twice (and sometimes three times) her size. Julia has great enthusiasm and courage, took some terrific marks, and would continually niggle the opposition and force turnovers. This young girl has a great future playing AFL. ISABELLE MILNE Issy is a really exciting player to watch and was a linchpin in our defence. She has a solid running game, was active in setting up scoring opportunities in our forward line, was tenacious at stoppages and showed great improvement in moving the ball forward. Unfortunately, repeated foot and ankle injuries kept her sidelined for much of the season, but there s no doubt she ll be a key defender next year. MILLIE MOSS Millie is a coach s dream; she does exactly what you tell her to do. She played much of the season as our anchor in defence and her discipline and level-headed approach is a great asset to the team. It was wonderful to see her maturing game sense come through towards the end of the season, together with some excellent kicks out of the goal square. Her involvement in next year s season will give the Greyhounds team real strength. AMELIA MUNN Amelia is our tallest timber and a vital asset to the team. It was great to see the evolution of her game through the season. Her versatility taking on the ruck role, as well as playing in both the key forward and defensive positions, was invaluable and she treated us to some brilliant running plays that were exciting to watch. It was a delight to watch her growing confidence in the tap-outs and tackles as she learned to use her height and reach, and gave us a glimpse of her inner mongrel. We are really starting to see her potential shine through and she will be one to watch in future seasons. LILI PEART It was great to see Lili s skills evolve through the season. Her willingness to put her body on the line in defence improved with every game. Her reading of the play also improved hugely, and it was great to see her get into position and lay many tough tackles. Well done Lili in your first season of AFL. All of the experience you ve gained this season will help shape your growth next year. RIVER REID River s enthusiasm and passion for the game is palpable and she is always brilliant to watch. She has a consistent work-rate in games, running with authority out of the centre to set up many passages of play. The snap goal over her shoulder in our first encounter with Newtown was a season standout, as was her stunning, fearless tackle against Moore Park just centimetres from the crowd. Her constant running play and possession set ups made a key difference for us in many games. Keep up the good work River. GLEBE JAFC 2017 YEARBOOK 55

56 U12 Division Youth Girls Coach s report & player profiles MELODY SCHOFIELD Our season turned around with Melody s arrival on the team a few weeks into the season. Although she was new to the game she quickly demonstrated a well-developed footy brain and is a deserved winner of rookie of the year. She proved herself to be an excellent mark and displayed great team spirit, looking to pass off to players in better position when taking possession. She impressed with her all-round performance including solid tackling and excellent reading of the play to be in the right position. Her contribution to the team next season will be significant. SOFIA SPRANGE Sofia is another of our Braveheart players. She showed great courage and fearlessness, partnering well with Maxine and Julia to rove the ball at stoppages and frustrate opposition players with her niggling persistent attack on the footy. One of our favourite moments from the sidelines was watching her literally climb up the back of the opposition to tackle. Her enthusiasm and attitude will put her in good stead for next season. EDIE STAFFORD Although Edie played the bulk of the year up forward, it was her time playing in the midfield towards the end of the season that we saw a real maturing of her game sense. Her involvement and reading of the play grew immensely, and she started to play a key role at stoppages. Her positive attitude and demeanor had a great influence on the rest of the team. LILY STONE Lily joined us late in the season but quickly made her mark. She showed versatility across a number of positions, but it was in the forwards, together with twin sister Maddie, that she shone. Her speed, athleticism and ball-handling skills developed with each game, culminating in several goals, and her season stats are impressive for only a handful of starts. You ve got a great future in AFL Lily. MADISON STONE Like her identical twin, Maddie is fast and showed in her first game that she can also be furious, nailing some tough tackles. She is a versatile, athletic player who was effective in the ruck, comfortable in defence but a true star in the forward line, kicking five goals in as many matches. Thanks to netball and touch footy she s already got great ball sense and it will be exciting to see how she develops. LULU THOMSEN Lulu had an excellent season where she stepped into the defensive role and grew in her capability and confidence with each game. She had an amazing work-rate in defence and could be depended on to agitate and stop key opposition players. Lulu is really coming into her own. She reads the play well and is absolutely fearless in defence. Her leadership and hard playing will be a key contribution to next year s team. WHITES PROFILES TAHARA ADAMS In her first season, Tahara was a real surprise package. There would be moments when you d be thinking what is she doing out there? then suddenly you d switch to did you see what she just did out there? as she pulled off a great piece of play. Whether in backs or forwards, Tahara was at her best close to the goal square and gave us some great moments, including one of the best running goals you will ever see at any level. Tahara s magic moments and the great potential earned her our rookie of the year award. MAGGIE BASS-TRACY In only her second season with the Greyhounds, you could see that Mabbie found the step up from U8 Auskick to U12s a bit daunting at first and who can blame her when you saw the size of the opposition!?! However, as the season progressed, her skills, confidence and enthusiasm kept growing (helped by some private coaching sessions with the club president!). Before too long, she was really playing her best footy, winning plenty of ball and moving it quickly to her team-mates from every possession. MAGGIE COONEY Small, fast and strong, Maggie was in the thick of the action in every game, confidently attacking the ball, and the opposition, with no regard for their size or experience. As soon as she has won the ball, and that was on plenty of occasions, Mags has her head up looking for the passing opportunity it s great to watch. At her strongest across the centre, Maggie was an outstanding support as the classic small rover to our rucks, quickly winning the ball and sending it downfield. JENNA GRAHAM Making a return after her debut season in 2012, Jenna showed real promise as a strong defender this year. Unfortunately her season was cut short due to family commitments, but we re hoping to see her back for a great season ZARA KILBORN Our Tower of Power, Zara dominated the ruck for us, working to deliver the ball to our (invariably) smaller rovers and centres to give us first use. Of course, it did not end there, with Zara confident all over the ground, showing great strength to support the team in attack and defence. Zara will be stepping up to U15s next year and her play this season showed she is ready for it. 56 GLEBE JAFC 2017 YEARBOOK

57 U12s YG MATISSE LIU Our veteran with the silky skills, Matisse. Every week she would come out and consistently shine in any and every position we put her in, regardless of the opposition, illness or running a half-marathon before the game. Our leading goal-kicker, Matisse did not just excel in quantity, but in the quality and accuracy of her kicking for goal many pros would be envious of some the goals she kicked on the run. Her reliable and dependable performance saw Matisse take out our most consistent player award. ELISHA MATTHEWS Elisha had a late start to her debut season and copped a baptism of fire with her opening game against the Cannons (YG grand final winners). But that certainly did not deter her, and the following week she showed she was going to be a player to watch with a great mark on the forward flank from where she dropped the ball neatly to a team-mate on the edge of the square to set up a goal. Lish was at her best at either end of the ground, providing a great target in the forward goal square and keeping the ball out of the hands of the opposition on the back-line. Another of our girls who is graduating to U15s next year, Elisha s development through the season has got her ready for the big move. GABI MATTHEWS Another of our debut players, Gabi s skills and confidence developed steadily through the season, peaking when it mattered most against some of our toughest competition in the later rounds of the season against the Cannons and Power it s all about timing! Gabi shone most brightly in defence this year, but if she stays on this trajectory, I can see her being a real force to be reckoned anywhere on the field as her confidence continues to grow. FREYA MCKENDRY Making her comeback after five years off, Freya proved to be a coach s delight. No matter what position she was playing, I could be confident that she was going to do the job I asked. Despite her grumbling whenever I put on her the back-line, Freya s strength and determination shone through every time, earning her our best defender award! With some of the team moving up to U15 next year, Freya will be one of the key experienced players to build the 2018 U12 squad around. LARA MILLWARD Lara isn t shy of a scrap at home (just ask her brother) and carried that attitude into much of her game this year. A tough-tackler, we would regularly see her fiercely fighting for the ball at the bottom of the pack, trying to wrench the ball from an opponent s grasp (and often pulling it off). Lara s speed and endurance enabled her to work end-to-end through the centre providing a great transition outlet, but also saw her shutting down many opposition clearances. A great debut season from Lara, and expecting to see many more great moments in seasons to come. ZOE SEIVER It took Zoe a while to find her slot in her debut season, but as she gained more experience and got a better feel for the game, she proved to be handy defender, tight marking and able to use her speed to shut down the opposition. With her skills continuing to develop and the opportunity to play in YG U10s next year, where she will be better matched for size, Zoe s confidence will grow and we will see a lot more out of her. JESS TOWNLEY Jess started the season as a solid utility player, play her anywhere, anytime and you d be guaranteed a strong performance. Unfortunately, she missed five games mid-season due to a strained Achilles or perhaps, it was not that unfortunate after all, as in her comeback game against Easts, Jess booted three goals, and never looked back. It s as if she had spent her time-off studying the Forward s Handbook as she finished the season kicking seven goals in the last six games. Jess enthusiasm and attitude make coaching her a delight. EMMA WALSH Emma s last season was as an U6 back in 2010, but you would never believe it from watching her play this year. Fiercely aggressive to the ball, Emma was the engine room for the team, showing great strength and vision all over the field. There were times where Emma seemed to be everywhere on the field, her work-rate was so high! Her skill and determination shone through in every match and she is a very worthy winner of our B&F. FRANCIE WALSH Our fearless flea, Francie was oblivious to the size of the opposition whether it was attacking the loose ball, tackling the runner or contesting a mark. Of course, on some of these occasions, Francie did come off second best, but she showed that not only is she fearless, but tough, and was usually back on the field in less time than it took me to carry her off. Francie s terrier-like tenacity and courage has justly earned her the B&F runnerup (a quinella for the Walsh family). CHARLOTTE WONG In only her second year with the Greyhounds, Charlotte showed us early in the season she was going to work hard at training and carry that through to each game. As a coach, there is nothing better than seeing the players actually do something you have been working on at training, and Charlotte made a habit of it. We worked on quick hand-balls to stay out of trouble, Charlotte delivers. Shepherding for your team-mate, Charlotte did exactly that. Always cheerful, Charlotte is great to have in the team and we re looking forward to seeing more of her next year. LORI WONG Lori had a late start to the season, but slotted quickly and easily into the team as an allrounder. She only had the one season back in 2015, but you would never know from the way she played. A truly unselfish player in every sense, Lori would instinctively have the wings out, shepherding the ball for her team-mates, or aggressively winning the ball in tough situations to set up play. This attitude and effort has earned Lori best team player award. She is definitely ready for the step-up to U15s next season and I know she is going to continue to shine. GLEBE JAFC 2017 YEARBOOK 57

58 U13 Coach s report & player profiles COACH DAN KENNY COACH S REPORT (DIV 1 REDS) The birth of the Bloodhounds brought together two teams with proud histories of playing good strong footy and a desire to make the new team work. Unfortunately, a sodden March meant we didn t get out on the training track as much as we would have liked, and we started the season still working out our best positions and learning how to play effectively with new team-mates. We definitely looked like two half-teams instead of a single integrated team and it showed in the results. But the determination of the players was a credit to them. After being touched up for the first three matches, we worked hard on playing as a team and creating a new style of tight defence and tough footy. The work put in by the team paid off when we beat Manly in one of the most exciting games of the season, with the winning goal kicked with a minute on the clock. We built on that success, beating Maroubra the next week, giving Easts a run for their money and surprising everyone with a very strong showing against Northern Lights, a team that was streets ahead of the competition all year. The strong development of the team was highlighted in the final weeks when we added attacking flair to our strong defence and hard attack on the ball. The result was a stirring win over St Ives in our best performance of the season a team that had beaten us by 70 points in the second round and an entertaining affair where we came within two goals of beating our old nemesis, Easts. Even more telling, however, was the camaraderie of the players after these games. Where early in the season there were distinct Newtown and Glebe groups after the game, after these matches, we were thrilled to see the players socialising as one group.

59 U13s COACH S REPORT (DIV 3 BLACKS) The Blacks had a successful season - our game day participation was across the largest breadth of players, no less than 50! We had success in winning seven of our 14 games, and most importantly, full enjoyment and development of all our players, week in week out. BLACKS COACH MANAGER Dan O Callaghan Denise Watson We worked well as a broad squad and support from the coaches, managers and players parents was critical to success. Working as a squad meant many players got a game in both U13 teams on Sunday or an extra game, where they normally played on Saturday. Some game clashes, injuries and illness meant we were significantly down on numbers but only once forfeited. Special thanks and appreciation goes to our managers Kerrie and Denise who worked very hard to reach out to a broad group of keen players to get another game and allowed a lot of extra fun each week. Some of the highlights included: Every one of the 50 players who played for the Blacks throughout the season; who contributed to not only winning half our games, but making new friends and having a whole bunch of fun. Enjoying the best champagne footy of the season where our individual players came together in an embodiment of football art to reveal breathtaking and beautiful form. The many upsets and frustrated bookies caused by the Blacks through their positive and tenacious fighting spirit and hard work; beating Ramsgate, Penshurst, holding off Heathcote in three of four quarters. When much smaller players tackled and brought down much larger opponents, the frequent second and third attempts to successfully turnover the ball, the commitment, toughness and positive team spirit. Having a crack at the joint venture between Glebe and Newtown to create the Bloodhound Blacks and in so doing providing an opportunity for another 50 kids to play another 250 games they would not have otherwise been able to play. Special thanks to our regular players who formed the nucleus of the Blacks regardless whether they also played in another club team: Finn, Harrison, Kaiwen, Loch, Oli, Nick Andreacchio, Will Kenny, Noah, Finn HW, Ben B, Ben H, Luca, Harry and of course the one and only Molly Watson.

60 PROFILES BENJAMIN BASKIN Another good season from an outstanding player. Ben saw a lot of the footy this year in both the Reds and Blacks. One of our most skilful players, who had the courage to take on the opposition under pressure. He did some of his best work around the ruck, a real tough and determined footballer who will keep improving in the seasons to come. Ben s strength is his competitiveness and his tenacity. His decision-making is also first rate, knowing when to spoil and when to go for the mark. Fantastic work Ben, keep up the great footy. OSCAR BOSNJAKOVIC During a very defensive season, Oscar spent a lot of time in the back-line playing the role of the loose defender. Oscar reads and anticipates the play well and was able to successfully intercept mark and provide rebound of half-back. We didn t score many goals this year, but when we moved Oscar forward he was damaging, kicking 11 goals, more than any other Bloodhound. HARRY DUNNE One of our taller players, Harry made a great contribution and learned to use his body well, increasing the pressure in the contest and creating space with a few big bumps to the opposition. He improved his positioning and kicking through the season and is continuing to read the play well. Harry mostly played in half-forward, and adapted to the demands of the game well and showed excellent support of his team-mates in the Blacks. Well done Harry! RAOUL GALEA A contested ball beast in tight, Raoul worked hard on his game this year to add finesse to his disposal and running game, making him a valuable asset off half-back, on the wing and in the middle. He is one of those great players who can always be relied upon to bring their best effort and maturity both on game day and at training, to give their all in every contest and to never give their opponent an inch. A fantastic year for Raoul, a pleasure to coach. KAIWEN GUAN Kaiwen really stepped up this year and was officially the Blacks most improved player. He worked hard to learn the game through dedication, commitment to extra training and improved skills were obvious in his improvement week in week out. Kaiwen played ruck and managed to win even against fiercest of opposition, had stints at centre half-forward and was most impressive at centre half-back, where he was fierce in the contest, put his body on the line and helped his smaller team-mates turn the ball back through our centre. As evidence of his improving game sense, on many occasions Kaiwen formed a wall in the centre, when the ball was in the Blacks forward 50, so when the pill popped out, he calmly collected it and sent it straight back to create another scoring opportunity. Congratulations on a great season Kaiwen! MAX HAMRA Max had an exceptional season and proved to be our most valuable utility player. Max played in the midfield, on the wing, across the half-back and back pocket. He was always prepared to take on the various roles we asked of him and excelled across the backline where his desperation and commitment to the ball repelled many an attack despite the fact that he was nearly always outsized and also often outnumbered. He also had the speed and skill to then bring the ball effectively and constructively out of defence. FINN HARLEY WHITNEY Finn had a great season and was the runner-up in the Blacks B&F. He has a high work-rate and proved to be valuable in many positions. He focused his talents and really came into his own when playing in the backline toward the end of the season. At times he took on many opponents successfully defending our goal, forcing a turnover and setting up a series of connected passes to create scoring opportunities. His teammates were particularly thrilled when he prioritised to play with the backs and increase the likelihood of making the finals. His maturity and game sense in the back-line is a great indicator of his development through the season. Excellent work Finn! BEN HARRINGTON Ben has an incredible work-rate and won the Blacks award for best midfielder. He is distinctive in his head gear and brought fear to his opposition through his great speed and the damage he can inflict. Skillful moving around the park, Ben is most impressive when deftly collecting the ball at speed around or through a pack. His versatility and ability to play well in any position the game demands is well recognised by his peers. He was frequently involved in creating scoring opportunities and executed very well through the season. Great work Ben! SAMUEL JACKSON Although one of the smallest players in the competition Sam proved again that size does not matter as he showed he has one of the biggest and bravest hearts in the league, as demonstrated by his intense competitiveness and phenomenal physical ability and endurance. Sam was Mr Perpetual Motion in the midfield and across half-back and not only did he never stop running, but he inspired the team throughout the season with his never-say-die attitude and his absolute commitment in putting his body on the line for the team. He thoroughly deserved to finish as one of the dual Reds B&F winners. PETER JUDGE Any player wanting to learn how to attack the ball could do no worse than to turn up and watch Peter work his art. The timing of his run, the fearlessness of his attack and the preciseness of his hand skills were a pleasure to watch. Whether intercepting an opposition pass off half-back or hitting the loose ball at pace off the wing, Peter was an indispensable part of the team. He was also a mature and committed participant at training, showing exemplary leadership and commitment to developing as a player. Well done on a fantastic year! TADHG KELLY When forming an alliance between two teams it is important to have strong leaders and from the very first training session Tadgh showed by his actions, communication and encouragement for all his team-mates (both old and new) that he had excellent leadership skills which were rewarded with his appointment as captain for the first part of the year. His great tenacity and stamina saw him playing across half-back, half-forward and on the wings, and his positional awareness provided the needed balance as our team developed throughout the season. He was a fantastic team man was always one of the first to volunteer when the Blacks needed extra players. 60 GLEBE JAFC 2017 YEARBOOK

61 U13s JAMES KENNY No one plays with more passion and commitment than James. He was always putting his body on the line to either win contested ball or make the big tackle or shepherd. He always attacked the contest with venom and ran hard all match to ensure he was always on or near the contest. James drove the team on from the midfield but also played across half-back when extra bite and rebound were required. His consistency throughout the season was rewarded with a much deserved runner-up in the Reds B&F. FINN KITCHIN One of our most experienced players, Finn is thoughtful, listens and follows instruction - every coach loves that! Finn received the Blacks clubman award for his consistency and top support of the Bloodhounds. Playing the most games this season, Finn was great value at half-forward. His experience showed in game sense when correctly deciding to lead out and open up space, drive extra ferocity in the contest to increase scoring opportunities, or drop into centre to help a tough contest. He made a solid impact on the scoreboard with a bag full of goals and had a great season. Well done Finn! DAEMON LAKATOS Daemon spent most of his season in a forward line denied of opportunity by strong opponents who often kept the ball outside of our forward 50. Despite this, he took a number of great grabs and worked well with the other forwards to kick the occasional miracle goal, tallying eight for the season. Daemon was a reliable midfielder when needed. His roving skills and centre clearances making significant impact on the game. Daemon is certainly more than just a forward. CULLEN LUM As our first choice ruckman, Cullen had the job of taking on the opposition s biggest player week in, week out. After being bested in the first couple of games, Cullen decided to work hard in his own time to improve his fitness. The effect was remarkable. Suddenly Cullen was running hard all game, first to contests, busting packs open and taking some huge marks and dominating the opposition. Soon Cullen was toweling up opposition ruckmen and striking fear into their midfielders hearts. The difference was never more evident than Cullen s BOG performance in our second Easts game, where his dominance gave us the upper hand in the midfield and very nearly the match. The Reds most improved award is a just reward for the effort and commitment that Cullen showed all year. HARVEY LYNN In a season where the ball spent a lot more time in our defensive half, Harvey worked hard all year at centre half-forward as our main attacking target. He normally had to work against two defenders and had to lead long and hard to create opportunities for himself. Many a match he worked hard for little reward but to his credit he was always working to provide an option. When we managed to get the ball to Harvey in space, his great marking skills and prodigious left boot allowed him to demonstrate his sublime skills which resulted in a number of great goals. NOAH MITCHELL Noah was a deserved dual winner of the Reds B&F. His outstanding skills and football brain meant that Noah was always positioned where he could get his hands on the ball the most. Noah was one of the most influential players on the team playing in the key positions down back and up front, and also through the midfield! Noah also proved to be a great leader of the team - leading by his actions and then developing his communication skills through the season to round him out as a complete footballer. LUCAS NEWMAN Lucas s season was plagued with injury and, unfortunately, he never reached full fitness and missed a significant number of games. Despite this he was still one of our most effective players having significant impact on every game he played, and still managed to be equal runner-up in the Reds B&F. Lucas can play anywhere on the field, but this year whenever he was available we needed him at centre half-back. He consistently dominated opposition forwards, intercepting the ball, sling-shotting us back into attack. Opposition coaches consistently ask about Lucas, referring to him with envy. LUKE NOORBERGEN Demonstrating the strength of our off-season trading strategy, Luke joined the team from Wests, quickly establishing himself as the bedrock of our back six and an aggressive ruckman, even against opponents twice his size. Quietly spoken off the field, Luke becomes a general on the field, taking charge of the defensive setup and marshalling the troops to repel attack after attack. His tenacity in the face of opposition pressure, ability to read the play and strong marking ability kept us in many a match. His performance in the last quarter of the St Ives win underlined the value he added to the team where, with a strong wind blowing in his face, Luke led an astounding defensive effort which gave us the win. An exceptional season and a deserving winner of the Reds golden fist best defender award. LOCHLANN O CALLAGHAN Lochlann provided leadership in the Blacks this year and role-modelled aggression in a hard contest. He kicked a few goals when forward and was most effective down back where his determination had maximum impact and benefit. He worked well with his team-mates, and his game sense improved markedly through the season as evidenced by him making better decisions week on week, with targeted passing to the player in space, or to switch the play to Blacks advantage. Most memorable was during a Heathcote game; Loch had arranged with a team-mate to mark the most damaging and massive Heathcote player, earlier in quarter. No one seemed able to do anything to stop the goals once this kid had the ball until Loch, half his size but relentless and aggressive, chased him down through his baulks and stylish moves, tackled him at speed, brought his full weight hard to the ground - to the cheers from BOTH sides! OLI O CALLAGHAN Oli has a high work-rate and a disciplined approach to his footy, that couldn t be slowed even with a recurring ankle injury. Oli will crash packs, consistently putting his body on the line despite much larger opponents. Despite actually being an U11, he discovered new techniques and his biggest adversaries learned to respect him as they knew he would keep trying to inflict damage whatever the odds. A keen on-baller, Oli mostly played centre and developed his game sense through the season specifically in his ability to calmly and successfully deliver the footy to his team-mates, despite high pressure and an apparent chaos around him and them. He kicked a handful of goals but caused most impact at the start of passages of connected play, as evidenced by him being key to some of the best champagne footy moments. GABRIEL QUOYLE If there is a memory of this season that will stay with us all into our decline into old age, it s the image of a horizontal Gabriel absolutely flattening Northern Lights man mountain. Not used to being tackled, the man himself looked shaken, the hit was so big! It lifted the team and brought the crowd into full roar, nearly inspiring an improbable win against a team that should probably be playing U17s. Throughout the season, Gabriel provided much needed attacking flair, demonstrating an ability to break free out the back of the pack and snap a running goal. His enthusiasm at training is infectious, setting a great example for others to follow. Congratulations on a great year! GLEBE JAFC 2017 YEARBOOK 61

62 JACK RATH Jack is the spirit of the game. His actions on the field speak louder than his words. He played most of the season in the midfield and on the half-back flank. He made an impact wherever he played. Jack competed against monsters, swarmed around and through stoppages and found himself clear in open space. Most importantly, Jack never gives up, never drops his head, and never loses his cool. He is a highly skilled and respected player, a leader of our club. SAMUEL SCUTELLA Samuel has an amazing game sense. A fantastic positional player who, when he gets the ball, always seems to have enough time to make the right decision. This season Samuel filled the important role of an attacking defender, and boy did we need it! His aggression at the footy and the opposition at times was inspiring for all. He took charge of the defenders and gave us run off the back-line. With sublime skills, good decisionmaking and selfless play, Samuel s footy will no doubt shine in years to come. Thanks for a great season. DOMINIC SHAPIRO To see a young player consistently take control of the footy at speed is a joy to coach and watch. Dom manages this feat several times each game (very Chris Judd-like!) This skill of reading the game is not coached, it is instinctive and enables Dom to break away from a pack into space and put us on the attack. Great work mate. As a rotating midfielder Dom was everywhere, a ferocious tackler and competitor. His ability to lead into space on the flank was invaluable and then his beautiful and accurate kicking made the forwards jobs easy. See you next year Dom. HARRISON THURMAN Harrison was awarded the Blacks B&F which is a testament to his solid performance all through the season. His efforts as our key ruckman set up our centre for success. Never one to shy away from tough competition, Harrison dug deep, often playing four quarters in ruck, showing quiet commitment and dedication as a top team player. Harrison you did a great job in the ruck and as a reliable and valuable player and was duly recognised -- well done on a great season! MAX TROUGHTON Max was solid in the back-line. He worked tirelessly during a season that was all about defence. There is not often much glory for players in the back pocket, but Max became a hero on more than one occasion. Round four against Manly was particularly momentous when he won a seemingly impossible one-on-one battle on the last line of defence late in the fourth quarter that ultimately resulted in our first win of the season. Max is both respected and respectful, with a great footy brain. We know that Max is a great backman, but we should also expect to see Max making an impact on other parts of the ground next year. ANGELO VON PEACHTREE Angelo was a transfer joining us from the Blue Mountains this year. He was quick to strike up friendships with his team-mates in his unassuming and quietly spoken way. A great team player he persisted to improve his kicking and tackling through the season and so keen was he to improve, he did sprints after a game to benchmark his pace and acceleration! Unfortunately, he was impacted by injuries but still got half-a-dozen good games in his season. Angelo was comfortable in the back and forward pockets and in these positions, learned to use his body well, selflessly increase his work-rate and above all, help his team-mates. Well done Angelo, you made a successful transition to a new city, JAFL club and a valuable contribution to the team week on week - we hope to see you back next year! MOLLY WATSON Molly was a positive force who did much to inspire her forward line while keeping the Blacks honest. A cunning player she often gained a good distance from her opposition and provided opportunities for her teammates to find her in space. She enjoyed sweeping the ball from centre forward as well as making a dash goal-ward around the boundary. On many occasions she showed poise and courage in face of fierce opposition baring down on her and did not flinch, was often first to the ball, and was involved in many goals and got a bagful herself. She is well liked by her team-mates and the Blacks were privileged to have her as a positive influence and a central player through the season. Molly you had a great season and were a real asset for the Blacks - keep it up and see you next year! TOMMY WILKS Tommy played all over the ground at times this year, mainly up front. But where ever he played he was hard at the ball: in the air and even harder at the ball on the ground. A great season from a great player, who never gave an opponent an inch. Two things Tommy did this year were standouts and say a lot about him. Firstly the captaincy; he took to this like a duck to water, he was one of our early captains and our arguably our best. The second was his ability to read the play and then take charge at the breaks and respectfully tell his team-mates that the decisions they were making could be improved with slight changes. This took courage and leadership, qualities that Tommy has in abundance. Well done. NOAH GLYNN YOSEF Noah was a critical player in the Blacks fiercest contests. He played most games traveling far and wide as our calendar demanded this year. Typically playing in our back-line, Noah would step up his aggression to take down opposition forwards, spill the ball and get it out of danger. Alternatively, he d think to drop back and provide options to team-mates if they had it covered. He showed great support of his team and singularly responsible for the extra 10% that made all the difference in a handful of games. Noah developed his skills through the season and also knew how to have fun. He sees the opportunity for a gag in pretty much any occasion and his teammates learned to appreciate his light humour at training. Well done! 62 GLEBE JAFC 2017 YEARBOOK

63 U13s GROUP PROFILE: Nick Andreacchio, Archie Christie-Day, Luca Cooney, Will Kenny, Bill Smith, Dawson Williams. It may come as no surprise we had a regular and full contribution from players who also consistently played for other Glebe or Newtown teams. Although I will not profile all, as they are covered elsewhere in this yearbook, let me share some information and highlights. We featured players eligible to play U11 who appeared in 80 combined games and contributed nearly 40 goals. The U12 contributors played 20 games with 10 goals. Committed to the team, the younger players were easier to spot as typically half the size of the opposition. They were termed our fast-running meerkats who created linkages, spotting mates in space and consistently found each other, despite height and size of their opposition and executed some great passages of play. They too delivered to the request of the coach... to deliver the basics and take aggression to every contest: backs - butter to bread; centres - quick clearances; forwards - make space. Most obvious was the love of a tougher opposition and the added space compared to their Saturday competition. Special mention to the U11s: Nick (I-just-wanna-play-footy-dad) Andreacchio who played the most games (14); Will (super-boot relax-and-enjoy-it s-a-set-shot) Kenny who kicked the most goals (21); Bill Smith had a huge number of marks; The super skills of Archie Christie-Day were complemented as he brought his aggression to a new level in the Blacks; Dawson Williams pace collecting the ball around the pack, often started something great; and Luca (straight through) Cooney burst through the pack the most number of times -- thankfully he did not sustain his 50 stitches with the Blacks! Well done to all the many players who were in the Blacks! You were absolutely part of the team and it was clear you had fun! GLEBE JAFC 2017 YEARBOOK 63

64 U14 Division 2 Coach s report & player profiles HEAD COACH ROB DREW COACH S REPORT Mongrel Ducks. La dada dada. The brief: The coach s report is always heartfelt and hard-headed, pulling no punches with a surly overtone. Considering results, surly might be difficult. I write this on the evening of Monday 4th September Yesterday we won the flag. The euphoria of the win and the effects of celebration beverages are still subsiding. But here is what I remember of our year. I first heard of the Glebe-Newtown alliance arrangement at a meeting in November Of our southern club, Jason O Brien and I were the only from our age group present. They put my name down as a possible coach they needed a name to fill the box. I wasn t convinced about the concept or the job. We had a good group of lads in Southern land. I do remember asking the important football questions of What animal are we? and What song do we sing? We were told we were to work that out. I met Warwick a couple of weeks later. From our initial discussion, I discovered Warwick wasn t convinced about the concept. He had a good group of lads in Northern land. The end of the chat left us both in agreement and wondering what was ahead. As the deal was done, we d make the best of it. We decided to run our two teams as a squad and Warwick declared interest in the lower division. We determined we would need to throw away past loyalties and attempt to create something new that all the boys could buy into. Club names, merchandise and uniforms were henceforth banned. Pre-season training started in the first week of February. As initially we had no contact with the Northerners, they wandered in a couple of weeks later. Two groups of young men, previous enemies, stood and eyed each other off. The wind blew, tumbleweeds rolled past and we waited to see who would draw their gun first. As north and south are not that far apart, there was common ground, common schools, common other sports teams, but still We threw a football in. They kicked it. A new identity began. Early we were met with many challenges. We used a borrowed jumper and were given a training roster a mathematical professor would have trouble with. But we won. And we kept winning. We even tried singing both songs early. There was some familiarity with the Southern one due to the local professional AFL team, but we struggled with the Northern one except for the highly intelligent members of the group fortunate enough to follow the Collingwood Football Club. We kept winning. We became the Mongrel Ducks. Mongrel not purebred greyhounds. Ducks the ugly swans. We adopted the song of one of the most despised teams in the AFL and made it our own. Although it is surprising how difficult it is to sing the line we re a team from somewhere near Camperdown. We kept winning. Jumpers came. The shorts were unfortunately a bit small for some of our larger lads, but injury was avoided. Training rosters stabilised. We kept winning. The league decided to move three extra teams into our competition half way through the year (weird). We kept winning. We played North Ryde. We lost. We recovered and then kept winning. We got to the finals and played a tough game against Moore Park. But won. A week off to see who we d play but we always knew. Yesterday s GF victory over North Ryde was the best game the boys played all year. They turned up focused, knew our game plan, believed in themselves and got the job done. A proud day for all. The boys have managed to build a team, a club of their own within their two clubs, their own brand and a community of support behind them. They have done this in 18 games. They are a group of outstanding young men. 64 GLEBE JAFC 2017 YEARBOOK

65 U14s Div 2 SPECIAL THANKS: Warwick. Our coaching similarities made it work. Our coaching differences made it work well. Your planning and coordination made my shambolic confusion work. Your work for our teams and the many other community clubs you are involved in is amazing. Guy. The everything man. Coached, managed, BBQed, couriered, chauffeured, trained, supported, wrote match reports and player profiles, and everythinged. Wouldn t have happened without you Jodie & Bev. Coaches only coach because we want to run around parks kicking footballs it isn t work. Managing teams is definitely work. You did a lot of it and did it really well. The clubs. A lot happens that most don t see. Thanks for getting us on the field. The ducks not in my team. Thanks for your support and respect. It s your premiership too. The ducks not regularly in my team but who played up. Every one of you bought in and contributed. Thanks. Everyone who... goal umpired, boundary umpired, first aided, water ran, ground managed, BBQed, canteened, helped at training, fetched footies, chauffeured kids, designed and ordered merch, photographed, washed jumpers, nursed bruises, cheered or read this. The team. It has been an honour. Thanks for letting me be involved. Your pre-season weights program, running program and dietary program should arrive in the mail shortly. AWARDS: B&F Riley. For him, I d assume a slow start to the year due to injury, illness and having to become accustomed to a new lunatic who picked him in the forward pocket. By year-end a dominant player in the comp, the age group and junior footy in Sydney. Can play. B&F runner-up and leading goal-kicker Lou. Internet says he kicked 17. Lou says 53 and can describe each one. Is the internet ever wrong? Well, this time, yes. Also did the team things really well and took on the defensive run message he heard repeatedly. Goal-kicking plus. Freakish. B&F 3rd Zak. Leader on field, off field and on the training track. Plays hard till he drops. Just loves it. A goal in the granny (one of three) proved that an hour kicking banana kicks before training every night is not time wasted. Well earned. Most consistent Reuben. First name thought of after hearing the word consistent. Second thought the whole back-line. Go with first thought, there s not enough trophies. Consistent indicates solid but doesn t describe Reuben s skill. Consistent plus. Best team man Baxter. Would run through a wall for his team-mates. Ran through many opposition attacks. Supports his mates and sings loud. Coaches award Dash. It would be hard to show a greater love for the game. Would regularly play two and umpire 5-6 games a weekend. Never misses training and I d assume would be at umpire training too.

Goal of the year Joe Dyster PROFILES ANDY HOANG NGYUEN Jr He s not mad, he s happy. He s not late, he s just early for the second quarter. He s more than competing, he s conquering Andy is a player you can set your watch to if you live in Adelaide. He owns last place in the team run, but is always first to the ball. He is the only player to ever miss a standing tackle bag and the only player to never miss a real tackle. AIDAN CONNOLLY He floats like a butterfly and stings like a native bee. He shadow boxes with the goalposts. He reads poetry by candlelight. He is an enigma inside a matryoshka doll inside a silk glove. Many layered and multi-faceted, Aiden is part of the greatest U14/2 back-line every to wear Duck hoops, his waddle is one to admire. BAXTER AURISCH This svelte Director of Defence, the Baryshnikov of the Back-Pocket, the Menuhin of the Midfield, sure he has a knack of creating impressive nicknames of himself and, why shouldn t he? Baxter commands an audience, relishes the pressure of back-line football and thrives on the destruction of any and all opponents. it s all very dramatic. BILLY MOFFITT Imagine running leads till your dairy-free lungs begged for cheese they hurt so bad. Imagine trying to compete on the haircut front with product vessels like L. Wilson and M. O Connor. Imagine taking all the cheap shots with no reward and the feeling that when you pulled on your Mongrel of a tight-fitting jersey, that it actually had a kick me sign on the back. You don t have to imagine that hard, because this has been the devil s card that Billy pulled from a cursed Duck deck early this year. A Sherrin is nothing more than a red leathery golden snitch just catching it when surrounded by the forces of evil is hard enough to then control it quite another. Billy brings his magic inside 50 every week, with only guile and determination and a new buzz-cut as weapons... surely there s a movie in that. GLEBE JAFC 2017 YEARBOOK 65

66 COOPER DREW Wearing an assassin s disguise of shiny black locks coupled with a disinterested stare, Cooper is more Peter Parker than the Jackal. His silky overhead skills and his Kasparov-like positioning give no clue to his true lineage. born and bred a Duck and then dramatically bitten by an escaped crazed hound last March... Cooper has transformed much like Peter Parker, showing that what doesn t kill you makes you stronger self-assured and bent on creating the legend of the Mongrel Ducks, he was voted most likely to never let the grey ruin his hair. DASH HIBBERD Best name, best haircut, most connected and destined to be the first umpire on a footy card. Dash s quiet, diligent demeanour is rarely troubled by the issues of ordinary mortals. Dash would think nothing of umpiring five games and then running to Bondi on a Saturday afternoon for a chai latte before backing up for more of the same on Sunday, AND THEN playing an outstanding role in a pulsating Mongrel Duck victory. Some say he sleeps on a bed of nails because he floats above it... nothing would surprise but rest assured, there would not be a hair out of place either way. EDWARD MOIR A distant cousin of Alison, the link broken by a spelling mistake at immigration long ago, but never in doubt when one notices the gusto Edward brings when leading the team song until he s basically all cried out... Edward s ability to turn a hard night s training into an impromptu musical is well known and his Clarence Clemons impersonation rivals anything by Puff Daddy/P Diddy. With all his attention-seeking, many forget the impact Edward brings to Mongrel Duck attack and the steel he brings to opposition incursion. His love of dancing has given Edward a set of lungs to match Stevie Nicks and legs with the stamina of one of James Brown s throne carriers. If Edward ever decides to focus more on football than musical theatre well, I d buy a ticket to see that. FINN MCKENDRY The big dog, the wind beneath our wings, the locomotive that drives the Mongrel Duck Express. Honest as the day is long and able to leap tall buildings in a couple of bounds. Finn keeps the team in time, controls the tempo and knows how to bring the audience to a standing applause. Finn was named best on ground after their premiership victory over the North Ryde Dockers. 66 GLEBE JAFC 2017 YEARBOOK JOE DYSTER Out of his comfort zone on dry land, and feeling naked without a swimming cap, Joe has the reptilian defence instincts of a saltwater croc, and his ability to spoil in front of goal with a staggering leap, while having opponents hanging off him, is child s play for Joe compared to losing his Speedos in the water polo pool. Joe is also part of the greatest U14 Mongrel Duck back-line ever assembled, and chose not to enter the Mongrel Duck best hair competition this year. LACHLAN HARMER More Tigger than Tiger, more Harmer than harmless, Lachie divides his tenacity between opponents, umpires and goalposts with varying results. Sometimes beaten but rarely defeated, he is his own harshest critic. His verbal tirades, critiquing various aspects of his own play, are often mistaken by umpires and opposition players as referring to them when nothing could be further from the truth. LOUIS WILSON They seek him here, they seek him there. He is the ghost who walks with hair that can t be touched and a swagger they cannot match. He visualises goals in his sleep, he practises kicking goals from impossible angles, he kicks goals during training, during the pep talk, before and after dinner and on the way to the bus. He misses almost as many as he gets but he gets a lot you need to be brave to kick goals and wear Brylcreem in your hair, and Louis Wilson can do both with style. MAX O CONNOR International man of mystery and the strongest pound-for-pound rover ever to grace a light rail platform. He is the rudder on the good ship Mongrel Duck. He can steer both defence and attack while still finding time to give umpires some advice. He is a frontrunner for best in hair at the Mongrel Duck red carpet event Max and his main rival L. Wilson have kept the King Street barbers in work this winter and many are expected to close up shop and take the summer off with the profits made from this rivalry. OSCAR LANE-HUMPHRIES Like a bullet train without a station, like a speedway car without a parachute, Oscar runs unencumbered. He hurls himself into contests and opponents like a possessed Love Bug chock full of angry pills. His relaxed nature easy smile have encouraged opponents to try to out-muscle and intimidate Oscar once sometimes twice, but that is only the foolhardy. He has no brakes, he doesn t know how to back off or back down, and just like Herbie, would probably run up walls and back-flip if required. RILEY FITZROY A Mongrel by birth, nurtured by Ducks. Can bite and fly, barks at the moon, quacks at the wind. Leaves a wake in the dust and swims through the air. Eats like a bird and wakes up with fleas. Speaks at a volume too low for human ears and can hear a flying Sherrin before others can see it. Celebrates victory lying in an ice bath and throwing darts at the Instagram photos of the opponents he stalks while planning their demise. REUBEN SACHS Reuben has made defending high art. He has put the position on a pedestal so high, no money can buy what Reuben creates on the footy field. His art brings tears to the eyes of half-forwards, puts midfielders into the foetal position so deeply does it affect them. He reads the red ball better than Bradman and is beaten less often. He lives on macaroni cheese and a passion for the French Impressionists. He wears his hair in a style known locally as the Monsieur Reuben and was in Paris when nominations for best hair in show were called. TOBY PHILLIPS (C) The Big Toe. The Toe Truck. Toe be or not Toe be. These are just a few of the twitter hashtags that can be revealed behind the lad who has inspired more umpires to join the Police force than any other. Umpires have been known to get so much experience writing reports about Toby, that they have taken up careers in law enforcement. That Toby generates so much attention from umpires and opposition fans is mainly because of his legendary Elvis Presley impersonation belting out Don t be cruel at every whistle and stoppage Toby had a few injury worries this year, particularly on Tuesday and Thursday evenings between 6:00-7:30pm, but that never stopped his ability to recover by Sunday where his short sharp bursts off the bench meant the Mongrel Duck team song had many renditions, highlighted by Toby s surprising falsetto. TOM HAGAN A long streak of talent, balancing that tightrope strung between brilliant and magic over a boiling cauldron of opposition bile and pursued by a rabid pack of under-slept defenders, who missed their daily drivethrough fix because they spent too long filing their nails into claws and taping knuckle dusters on with skin colour tape. Tom features heavily in this season s highlight reel, he wears his heart on his sleeve and rides every play like it s the last race at Flemington after a long day and an unfortunate incident in the Birdcage. His challenge for best hair in show meant creating more body and shape with the sponsor s product during the season and the judges really appreciated the effort.

67 U14s Div 2 TOM MINNETT They call him Greeney, Greeney, faster than lightning, no-one you see, is smarter than he. Greeney gives away height, weight and a right boot week in week out and is the greatest pickpocket the Mongrel Ducks have ever produced. Like the Artful Dodger, Greeney steals possession faster than you can collect bad financial advice from Commbank. But unlike the bank, Greeney puts his ill-gotten gains to good use, sharing his good fortune with his fellow Mongrel Duck stakeholders and putting it towards a mortgage on the U14/ premiership. WILL O BRIEN (C) Our custodian, protecting our goal from ever being breached. He is the Dirty Harry of the Mongrel Duck back-line... any forward with designs on scoring has to contend with Dirty Harry O Brien, just when they think it is safe or even possible to score, Will sizes them up and asks the question well punk, I ve lost count of how many tackles, spoils and intercepts I ve taken today do you think I ve got another one in me? by the time they move to pull the trigger, it is over the tackle made, the kick spoiled, the intercept mark taken end scene. Will decided not to enter the best in hair competition when he realised that no amount of product could change that classic O Brien look. WILLEM RUMI With a fashion sense more Kanye than King Gee, Willem is the epitome of the still waters run deep maxim. Discovered among the Bronte Beach glitterati last season, plucked from obscurity and thrown into the heady world of junior AFL immediately, Will copes with the fame easily, coolly deflecting the attention of coaches, managers and club gear stewards to create his own playing attire. Will loves nothing more than a bar brawl, preferably with chairs thrown and dwarves ejected... failing that, being matched with a worthy opponent on the footy field brings out the Wild Bill Hickok in Willem, with guns drawn, a gunslinger in gold lame pants stylish and savage. Willem was the unsung hero of the GF, his efforts in shutting down the dangerous North Ryde midfield restricted their attack and disrupted their defence by shooting from the hip with both barrels. ZAK MARTIN (C) This skateboarding bullock strikes fear in the belly of any opponent fool enough to get his way. He has hands like Tarzan and he swings along the boundary line likes it s a jungle vine, using the momentum to launch shots at goal with the power of Buddy and probably better accuracy. He is everywhere until he is nowhere, he runs himself to an absolute standstill week in and week out and is on first name terms with the first-aid officer from every club in our competition. Zak accepted the trophy as Captain of the first Mongrel Duck team to win a Greater Sydney Junior AFL Premiership on Sunday 3rd September GLEBE JAFC 2017 YEARBOOK 67

68 U14 Division 3 Coach s report & player profiles COACH WARWICK MOSS COACH S REPORT 2017 was a hugely successful year for the Mongrel Ducks U14 Div 3 despite not taking home any silverware. The team finished second on the ladder after the home-and-away games, but went down fighting all the way in the semi to a very strong St Ives side, and in the preliminary final to Willoughby- Mosman. To play all but one game of the season was a great achievement. The real highlight of the season was the even spread of contribution across the whole team. With the absence of key players from last year playing mostly in Div 2, it meant many more of the boys were able to play in key position roles. Without exception everyone stood up to the challenge, and took more responsibility for the team performance. All of the boys who played for the Div 2 side held their own and made valuable contributions, and I would have had no hesitation putting any of the boys forward when spots became available. In the final analysis, the team was just lacking a few tall players who could hold down key positions. Against St Ives and Willoughby, both of which had 6-8 very tall boys, it was hard for us to score. Our forwards had to push further up the ground to get the ball, and then our inside 50 entries were picked off by the bigger defence. This is not a situation that is likely to continue, but the boys coped very well with the difficulty. Our forward pressure all season was intense, and many of our most determined players: Asher, Yuri, Billy, Riley, Sam O Brien and Tom Sherratt toiled admirably, often against huge odds. The midfield was an entirely new group of boys this season, led by Ashton and Sam Sullivan in the ruck, boosted by Sam Eagleton when available. Finn, Sam O Brien, Asher, Billy and Alan shared the load of running backwards and forwards all day on the wings, while Luca Fotea, Lachie Walsh, Luca Agius and Sam Scutella worked their magic in the middle of the ground. In our wins in particular this midfield group was dominant, and stood tall even in the losses. COACH ASSISTANT COACH MANAGER Warwick Moss Benjamin Farrawell Beverley Walsh PRESENTATION AWARDS Best & fairest Lachlan Walsh B&F runner-up Ashton Robinson Most consistent Liam Goggin Best defender Sam Sullivan Most determined Charlie Eyiam-Rowe Best team player Luca Agius Coach s award Billy McLeod Leading goal-kicker Ashton Robinson MILESTONES - 50 GAMES Yuribaya Farrawell Ashton Robinson A team can t come second on the ladder without a consistent and strong defence. Gus, Charlie and Max Foley have played together in the back-line for seasons now and can read each other s minds. They repel countless attacks, linking up with the half-backs ably led by Sam Sullivan, and supported by Max Gallant, Riley, Kaiwen, Liam and Ryan. Not only for the coach, but for the supporters also, there is nothing better then seeing all the lines link up, and at times the hand-balls and short passes coming out of defence through the mids and into the forward line was a joy to behold and, even in our losses, there was a lot of good football to enjoy. Often it felt that we played much better than the scoreline suggested. All great signs for the future. So, another season comes to an end, and all that is to remain is to thank Bev for all her incredible hard work making everything run like clockwork (along with Jodie and Jason, thanks team!); to all the other parents who help me all along the way, a big thank you; and to Ben, Robin and Guy, I have learned a huge amount from all three of you and I couldn t have done it without you! 68 GLEBE JAFC 2017 YEARBOOK

69 U14s Div 3 PROFILES ALAN WESTON Alan is, along with Sam Sullivan, one of our two great quiet achievers. No fuss, no nonsense, Alan will take on whatever role is asked of him, including tagging Baxter when needed! Alan also brings some much needed variety to the team, being one of only two leftfooters. He has some engine on him, able to run up and down the wing all day. ASHER CAREY Asher had a great season up forward, but also took turns roving and playing at half-back and on the wing. His role was to lock the ball in the forward line, which he did admirably. He s a feisty character and never takes a backward step, and always has the back of his team-mates. He didn t get the reward he would have liked with a bag of goals, but the benefit of Asher s forward pressure and score assists doesn t go unnoticed. ASHTON ROBINSON Ashton stepped into the role of key position player this season, spending most of his time in the ruck, at centre half-back or centre half-forward. Ashton enjoyed throwing his weight around, imposing himself physically in the key spots. Being the leading goal-kicker from the centre is a major achievement, and his kick is becoming more reliable as he grows in confidence and takes more control of games. A very worthy runner-up in the B&F. AUGUSTUS TIERNEY Ever reliable, Gus has become an essential member of the back-line along with Charlie and Max. His marking and kicking has improved throughout the season but he is still the master of the hand-pass. He s very quick across the ground to shut down opposition forwards and never gets pushed off the ball. He had a few moments up forward and in the centre during the season, but when the chips were down, could be counted upon to hold up the defence. Just missed out on best team man award, and his contribution can t be underestimated. BILLY MCLEOD Billy works very hard, runs hard, and isn t afraid to take the game on. His best game was against Manly where he showed his ability to win the hard ball, running hard into space in the forward-line and kicking long goals. Throughout the entire season he inspired all of the other boys by his non-stop effort both in games and at training, and he is just the kind of player you want in any team. He has a really nice, accurate kick, which rewarded Billy with the equal second highest goals scored. CHARLIE EYIAM-ROWE Charlie s trademark runs out of the back-line, thrilling the crowd with one or two bounces as he streams away from the opposing forwards, often following up his own work to get another run and kick. He occasionally plays midfield when his extra energy and physicality is needed, but Charlie has made full-back his own, and in combination with Gus and Max has created the best full-back line in the league. GLEBE JAFC 2017 YEARBOOK 69

70 FINN HAWKINS Finn had a bit of a break early in the season but came back firing. He mostly plays on the wing or half-forward, racing up and down the field to join the action. Finn also applies pressure with some strong tackling coming from playing more rugby, and he s always had a reliable kick and a good head for getting in the right spots. Great to have Finn back enjoying his footy after injury late last year. KAIWEN GUAN Kevin has come along way in the two seasons he has been in Australia. Playing regularly for the U13s, Kaiwen has trained with the U14 squad and qualified for finals with the team. Kaiwen is growing in his understanding of the game, and is able to use his size and skill to hold down key positions at half-forward and half-back. He is a fantastic team man and everyone loves his contribution. LACHLAN WALSH (C) Lachie had a truly outstanding captain s season, leading the boys admirably from the first bounce. Given the loss of key midfielders this year, Lachie stepped into the centre/roving role where his physicality and determination were needed. He also took his familiar half-back role against the stronger sides, and was essentially the man to take on the hard jobs. Even then, he still managed to chalk up eight goals. Thoroughly deserved this year s B&F. LIAM GOGGIN Great mates with Luca Agius and, like Luca s first year, Liam s was a stand out. Could play anywhere on the ground as needed but felt most comfortable patrolling the back-line. Given Liam could have played for the U13s, there was never any doubt about his ability to play in the higher age group. At this age, his ability to judge the flight of the ball is among the best I ve seen, and his kick is as technically sound as you could wish. Without a doubt, the most consistent performer in this year s team, and third in the B&F. LUCA AGIUS In his stand-out first season in 2016, Luca benefitted a lot from the key players around him, so this year was in many ways even more impressive. Luca found the going a bit tougher as he had to assume a lot more responsibility, playing a more central role in winning the ball. In soccer terms, Luca was our play-maker, setting up many of our forays forward. Overall a great season, and very well deserved best team man. LUCA FOTEA Luca Fotea had a disappointing end to the season with illness, but that can t take away from the superb season he had, alternating between the centre and centre half-forward. As one of our main tall players, Luca was a crucial forward target, and also as a mobile bigger player, really important to win the ball in the centre of the ground, and preventing opposing teams to transition the ball quickly. We definitely missed Luca in the finals! MAX FOLEY With the shortage of big men, especially late in the season, Max played a crucial role in the midfield, throwing his weight around. But Max really comes into his own in the back-line, working well with Charlie and Gus making up the back three. Max always attacks the ball hard, and never lets an opposition forward get an easy position. His kicking and ball-handling skills are also continuing to improve each year. MAX GALLANT Max was a bit lost in his first game of Aussie rules but showed what he could do later in the season when rugby wasn t stealing him away from us or, for that matter, broken bones. Max has the makings of a really reliable Aussie rules player, and with his height and ball skills, he makes a natural back man: willing to tackle hard and a good judge of the incoming flight to either mark or spoil. It will be great next to see how Max improves with more games under his belt. RILEY THURLOE Riley was another of Luca Agius recruits, along with Liam. Riley worked into the season, feeling more comfortable over the different parts of the ground. Riley definitely preferred the back-line, either at full-back or half-back, but I used him a lot up forward to help lock the ball in, which he did really well. Riley will definitely read the play better with more games next season, and will be a solid contributor at either end of the ground. RYAN HENNESSY Ryan is a fantastic player whether in the middle of the ground or running out of half-back. He is one of our two left-footers, combining well with Alan to control the left side of the ground. For various reasons, Ryan didn t end up playing after round eight, and was sorely missed. If he ever gets sick of skate-boarding, we would love to see Ryan back on the football field! SAM EAGLETON Unfortunately for the team, Sam s clashes with representative rugby meant he could only don the Mongrel Duck s jumper four times throughout the season. That he was best-on-ground for three of them shows the prodigious talent Sam obviously has for sport. His physicality was a big plus in Div 3, and along with some impressive marking and kicking, had no trouble asserting himself on the game. We really hope Sam can play more next season! SAM O BRIEN It is hard to imagine a more enthusiastic footballer than Sam O Brien. He eats, lives and breathes footy, umpiring when not playing. Starting the season on the wing, and often in the midfield, Sam became one of our essential forwards. A very reliable kick, with a superb snap from the boundary being one of the season highlights. Sam is always a positive influence, and always willing to do what is needed for the team. SAM SCUTELLA A regular U13 player, we consider Sam to be an honorary member of the U14 squad having qualified for finals for the past two seasons. He is a terrific ball-winner when roving, and is a great user of the ball. He didn t play forward too often, but as he showed in the Maroubra game, he can create space and set up play, always able to find a leading target with an accurate pass. SAM SULLIVAN (VC) Sam is the quiet achiever of the team. Sam is definitely capable of playing Div 2, but his commitment to the Div 3 side was commendable. Sam made centre half-back his own, and also helped out in the ruck when needed. Sam is a great contested player but he also loves being the loose man down back, able to read the play and mop up whenever the ball hit the ground. Really hit his straps late in the season, working well with Lachie to lead the way. TOM SHERRATT Tom brought a huge energy to the game on his joining the team in round seven. Unfortunately, after five games, Tom broke his arm playing soccer at school, and that was the end of his comeback season. Tom is a gutsy player, keen to put his body on the line to win the ball, and can take a solid contested mark. It will be great to have Tom back for the full season next year. 70 GLEBE JAFC 2017 YEARBOOK

71 U14s YURIBAYA FARRAWELL Yuri has played on the wing and half-forward in previous seasons, but this year was stationed closer to goal at full-forward to be our main leading target. This paid off with Yuri a consistent goal-kicker as well as recording goal assists. Yuri continues to have one of the most technically sound kicks in the team, and hopefully he ll be able to move higher up the ground again next season (if we can find a key tall for him to kick to!) Special thanks to all the Div 2 boys who helped out through the season and played some cracking games for us: Baxter Aurisch (7), Cooper Drew (5), Finn McKendry (5), Dash Hibberd (4), Andy Nguyen (3), Aidan Connolly (2), Billy Moffitt (2), Tom Hagan (2).

72 U15s Coach s report & player profiles COACH RICHARD NICHOLL COACH S REPORT The season began with a lot of unknowns. How will two teams from different clubs come together? What jumper will we wear? What song will we sing? Will the rain ever stop so we can start pre-season training? COACH ASSISTANT COACH MANAGER Richard Nicholl (Div 3) Aiden Sammut Jason Howard The interrupted start meant most of the players only met each other when we played a friendly against Maroubra a week before the start of the season. We also had an initial squad of 35 whittled down to 28 which made it tough to field two teams. But everyone approached it in the right spirit and the Bloodhounds were born! The Glebe players certainly looked forward to the challenge with one heard to comment after a training session early in the season: You know shit s real when you do sprints as a warm-down after a 5k run. The Div 2 team got off to a flyer and showed the combined strength of both player groups. The Div 3 team was more of a challenge as many players had to back up for two games and U14s and the occasional U13 helped to top up in the early rounds. Also grateful to ex-glebe player Aiden Sammut who helped coach the Div 3 team. With a 4-0 winning start to the season the Div 2 side were promoted to Div 1 and a decision made to fold the Div 3 team. The step up was stark and to go from smashing teams to chasing the game in Div 1 was difficult. But the players never dropped their heads and never looked out of most games, even though the score said otherwise. We nearly snagged a win away to the Northern Lights and managed to scrape home against Easts in the last game of the season to finish a respectable fifth on the table. Thanks to Richard, our attentive first-aiders, professional goal umpires, fit boundary umpires, the scorers (even if occasionally they got carried away watching the game and not the clock), and everyone else who helped out on game day. Every player improved through the season and by the end of it you couldn t tell who was from which club to start, they were all Bloodhounds!

73 U15s DYLAN ABDURAHMAN Dylan had a challenging year as he got tagged or double-teamed as teams tried to minimise his impact. Despite the attention, he still managed to be our team s second highest goal-scorer and never gave up trying. Dylan s effort on the field and enthusiasm in games and training are never questioned, and he ll be able to counter the tag next year by more effective running without the ball and bringing his team-mates into the game. Look forward to more improvement next season. DYLAN HOWARD Dylan gave the team a great target up front, with good hands and a keen eye for goal. His goal in the last minutes of the final game of the season, to give us the lead, showed a cool head and a good technique. Dylan is smart and understands the game well. With more self-confidence and self-belief he can become an effective on-field leader and develop his game by playing more midfield/ wing. OSCAR SACHS Oscar had a tremendous season and is really starting to understand the game. He is reading the play better and became our backline leader, essential to stopping many goals and starting our offence. Oscar s kicking really improved but with more practice, particularly on his opposite side, he will become indispensable. His endurance, improving skills and leadership on the field stand him in good stead to be an even better player in the future. REX QUAIL Rex showed an enthusiasm to learn and a willingness to work on his game. To his credit he made one of the back pockets his own for most of the season. Rex has excellent hands and his kicking is improving and at times his contributions were significant. There are things to continue to work on in the future for sure, reading the game, when to leave your man and more, but with continued application Rex can be an accomplished footballer. JACK GRIFFITH-SAUNDERS Jack had another consistent season. He and I have spoken just about believing in himself and having confidence to be more involved on game day. Jack has developed into an excellent tap ruckman, but when he went back in a couple of games to full-back he was really effective and was able to show some of his excellent skills, so it is a dilemma where to play him. He had a great rep carnival and didn t look out of place among some of the best players from the city region. We missed him in the last few games of the season and can t wait to see him back on the field next year. DAIRE FILITONGA Daire is quiet but tough with a very solid work ethic. His best work was done in the ruck and he was willing to ruck all day, which is no mean feat. While he often gave up height in the ruck he regularly won the ball due to his sheer determination to win the contest. His efforts out of the middle almost won us the game against Northern Lights. With improvements in kicking, and a bit more knowledge of the game, he can be an excellent and dominant footballer. NORTH OWENS-MEULMAN This has been North s best year for some time. We saw North taking marks that he was dropping last year and the attack on the footy that he had a few years ago has returned. North is very versatile and played midfield and forward with aplomb. North s leadership on game day, and at training, was a great assistance to me and was much appreciated. He will continue to be a leader at this team. NAMKHAI STYLIANOU Namkhai showed he was willing to come to training and work hard to improve his game. It took a while to adjust to the speed of Div 1 but he stuck with it, showed growth and development, and owned the other back pocket position by the end of the season. If Namkhai continues to work on his skills (kicking, marking, hand-ball) and reading of the game, with his height he can be a key position player in the future and contribute even more to the team. Look forward to seeing him develop as a footballer even more next year. BILLY TOBIN Billy really improved this year with a move to the back-line. He really has so much potential and the next step is a move to the midfield. What improved this year was his kicking, reading of the play and attack on the football as it entered the back-line, and returning the ball with a run or penetrating kick. What needs to improve to get to the midfield is his strength and ability to win the contested ball, if he does that he will be a weapon on the footy field. GLEBE JAFC 2017 YEARBOOK 73

74 GABE BASS-TRACY Gabe had an interrupted year with injury and illness. When he played he showed he had a good pair of hands, a nice kick and could read the game well. Gabe s ideal position is in the ruck, with his height and ability to take take a mark around the ground an obvious advantage. Rucking requires strength and fitness and with his knowledge and experience in the game, and a strong pre-season, Gabe can become a regular and make a great contribution to the team. TODRA LINDQUIST Todra has really quiet games and then suddenly explodes and has amazing periods and moments in games, which shows his potential. Todra would agree that his basic skills are improving (kicking, marking, handball) but can improve further and while his fitness has improved from a couple of years ago, his endurance needs to lift further so we see more of those amazing periods of play. LACHLAN KERR Lachie is the player who reminds us that footy is all about playing with your mates. It always lifted the spirits when watching him have a giggle with his friends around training, but come game time he was switched on and gave 110%. He found the speed of the Div 1 games challenging, like a few of the players, but he always attacked the footy and played his role and never complained. Lachie is a great team player and we hope he returns in WILL NICHOLL The father of my best mate at school was our basketball coach. I use to feel sorry for him as his Dad was very hard on him and I am sure I am the same on Will. The worst thing for Will about being the coach s son is that he had to attend every training. If he listened to his Dad, he would be a better player today, but in saying that I think he had a better year this year than last. It is just his ability around the contested ball, and making an effective kick or hand-ball in those situations, that would make him an even better player. LACHLAN BEST Lachie is one of those players in your team with enormous potential which, at times, is a frustration because with his speed and skillset you have high expectations as a coach. I hope it is not those expectations which weigh too heavily on Lachie and hold him back as a player. He doesn t shy away from the contest but just needs to improve his composure with the footy, make an effective disposal or back himself and take on the game, which with his speed would be a real weapon for the team in the future. MAX COLLINS Max is developing into an excellent player. His attack on the footy, ability to mark or punch and then run out of defence, has really improved. The next step is to play in the midfield, because he has the ability. Max just needs to keep working on his decisionmaking around contests. If he can do that and start showing some leadership and talk on the field, he will definitely play some midfield next season. Keep it up Max! RYAN KITCHIN Ryan celebrated his 100th game with the Glebe club this year, which is an outstanding achievement. He loves AFL and loves the Glebe footy club, showing amazing loyalty, which is a valuable trait to have. Ryan finished the season with two goals in the win over Easts and has well-developed marking and kicking skills. Looking forward, the main thing he needs to work on is his endurance, strength and overall conditioning to make greater contributions during games. LUKE TRANI I have various pet names for Luke, Ratbag is one, Wally Lewis is another. The analogy with Wally is that he apparently didn t like to train, but he was still an outstanding player. While Luke did train a little more this year than last, he would just learn more about the game by coming to training. I think he also managed to confuse his team-mates (not just me) on his kicking style which I call the reverse torpedo; even Oscar tried to teach him how to kick, but to no avail. Don t listen to Grandma, come back next year Luke, good to have you around. 74 GLEBE JAFC 2017 YEARBOOK

75 U15s BOSTON BRINKMAN Boston never shied away from the contest and was happy to get into the hard situations. This is only his second year playing AFL and his basic skills continued to improve through the season. His decision-making will improve and speed up with more game time so he avoids getting caught with the ball when he could get a hand-ball or kick away. I know if he takes a greater interest in AFL, and with the continued support of the coach and his team-mates, Boston will develop into an excellent player in the future. LORCAN KERR Lorcan had another consistent year. I think the last game of the year against Easts was his best game of the season where he really had an influence on the game. I think it has taken a while to recover from his broken ankle, but this Easts game showed his ability and he is clearly one of our better players. Lorcan understands the game and thinks about where he should be on the field, and just needs to have more confidence in running forward out of defence when the chance is there to take. Occasionally just goes to sleep in games, if this changes, he will make a greater contribution week-to-week. JIM KOUTS Jim played his first year of AFL and to his credit continued to train and play hard right till the end of the season. The Div 1 games are challenging for a new player, but Jim really made an effort. He should be proud of the development of his basic skills, confidence and game understanding, which all improved from the start of the year. I hope Jim returns next year and continues to develop his game. LEVI MCGRIGER Levi sits in that category of players with the most untapped potential. On his day can be the best mark and is certainly one of our best kicks. He has a light frame, so the next step is to build up some body strength over the summer and he can be far more than just a wing/half-forward. It is just that toughness to put his head over the ball at times and if Levi develops that part of his game, he can be a devastating player in the future. JACOB HOGAN Jacob has a few things on his side: he is very fit and has ball skills from his touch football background; it is just those pure AFL skills of accurate kicking and hand-balling that let him down. His development has been amazing, considering his frustration with Div 2 last year, in his first season, compared to this year where he didn t look out of place in Div 1. Jacob has the endurance to play AFL; he just needs to work on those basic skills and when he gets a little bigger and increases his overall strength, he will be a valuable member of the team. KAI CHOWDHURY Kai has always played above his weight. His attack on the footy and passion on the field inspires his team-mates around him. It s wasn t uncommon to see Kai flat on his back completely spent at the end of a game having run himself into the ground. His efforts against Northern Lights and Manly examples of the pressure and run-and-carry that Kai brings to the team. Kai just needs to improve his kicking in general play, hit a target 20m away and kick earlier rather than get run down and tackled occasionally. Overall, another great year; just look to bring your team-mates into the game more and increase the talk that I know he is capable of, and Kai will continue to be a crucial and integral part of the team. MAX FATHULLA Max is a really good person with an obvious desire to improve his footy. His commitment to the team paid dividends with a goal against Easts in the last game of the season. Keep working on your kicking and marking and the ability to contribute will improve with more experience. JESSE BADER Jesse was his usual dominant force in our six games in Div 2. Unfortunately, he contracted glandular fever and had a half dozen games off before returning Div 1, where his fitness was clearly compromised. His signature attack on the footy was still evident, just some his kicking certainly let him down at times. Hopefully we see him back next year fit and firing and having his normal, positive influence on games. RORY PLUMMER Rory put together some good play, tackling, shepherding and toughness around the ball play. Unfortunately, he was unavailable for quite a few games and training sessions which would have helped improved his game even further. Would be great to see Rory back next year because if he commits he obviously has the sporting talent to be a great contributor to the team. BYRON YOUNG Byron showed he can be a tough and powerful ball-winner in the early rounds of the season. Unfortunately, he got appendicitis half way through the season and didn t get to play another game. Hopefully see you back next year. LIAM FLEMING Unfortunately Liam s season lasted only one-and-a-quarter games on the opening day after suffering a serious knee injury. Hoping a successful operation and a good rehab program might see him back playing sometime in Don t give up Liam, we look forward to seeing you back. HUNTER MUNN Hunter returned to AFL after a three-year absence and added three games to his Glebe tally before moving to Wests once the Div 3 team folded. Was great to see him back on the footy field and hopefully he enjoyed his games at Wests and keeps kicking on in GLEBE JAFC 2017 YEARBOOK 75

76 U15s Youth Girls Coach s report & player profiles HEAD COACH MONICA BOURKE COACH S REPORT 2017 was always going to be a tough year. We were relatively new and playing against established teams who had been playing together for a long time! When we look back on the year, we really took it to these teams and had some really close games showing how competitive the Breakers can be. While it was not always evident on the scoreboard, the girls held their own, proved strong competitors and should be very proud of themselves. I know as a coach I am extremely proud! This year the girls learned to really play together as a team. Rather than focusing on individual efforts, the girls worked together for the common goal (and points :). Their sense of camaraderie and the support shown to each other was brilliant. They showed that they understood, and carried out, set passages of play. Training focused on being aware of positions and aiming to keep to these, rather than chasing the ball. This was evident on game day and the girls matured in their approach to the game. Our annual Bring your boots day could not have been possible without the support from the groupies. Thanks to the parents, brothers, sisters, partners, team officials, canteen ladies and all Breakers supporters for their unwavering efforts. A big shout out to those involved in the day - with the girls and the above support crew pulling on their boots for a fun day of footy. This was a chance for the girls to show off their skills up close and personal, and share their love of footy with their friends and family. Big thanks goes to Merrill for being an awesome team manager. It can be a tough gig, but she consistently went above and beyond for the girls and we all really appreciate it. Chris joined the team as a support coach this year and was a massive asset! He is extremely skilled on the footy field and very willingly gave up his time to help out and impart his knowledge to the girls - often while being the runner on game day. Thanks Chris! Sadly we say goodbye to a few key players this year, but the remaining girls should all be very excited to return next season for another ripper! We have improved every year, and next year could be ours!

78 U17s Coach s report & player profiles COACH BRAD SCUTELLA COACH S REPORT After 13 years as coach (and one year as an assistant) it is finally time to hang up the blue bib. It has been a thoroughly enjoyable journey and great to see these young boys grow into young men. I looked through the team photo this year and noticed that many of the boys were taller than me. It seemed like it wasn t that long ago when I was towering over them. Along the way, I have had great help from David Alais as my assistant coach. A big thank you to David for his pearls of wisdom over the years. Not only have the boys learned from him but so to have I. We must have done something right over the years as this team has made the semi-finals and the grand final every year since they were U12, regardless of playing Div 1 or Div 2. I have been truly fortunate to coach not only a skilful team of boys but, more importantly, a very decent bunch as well. Their loyalty, team spirit and dedication to each other and the club is something you don t generally find these days. To have this playing group stay together for so long is pretty special. This playing group has 14 players who have played over 50 games for the club; 12 have played over 100; six players have played over 150; and two have played over 200 games. Collectively they have played over 2050 games for the club. This is a record which probably will never be bettered. This year we started off the season in Div 2, but after cleaning up all opposition we were moved up to Div 1. The boys wanted to go, I had mixed feelings, and I know most of the parents weren t keen for the elevation. However, the decision was out of our hands. This team is the first ever Glebe U17 Div 1 team. To then go on to make the semi-finals makes them even more unique. Winning another Div 2 premiership would have been good; however, winning a Div 1 Premiership would have been better. Getting to the semi-finals in Div 1 was a great effort. As I reminded the boys, week in week out, you are playing some of the best players in NSW and you are holding your own. The four best teams in the Sydney basin made it to the semi-finals and our boys were part of that. As a testimony to how good this playing group is, we have had interest from Sydney University, Balmain and Western Suburbs inquiring about whether the boys would like to play senior footy with them next year. I have no doubt that all of them will do well in senior footy if they choose to carry on. We also had six players picked in the City rep team: Blake, Tom LK, Miles, Che, James and Angus Macdougall. We probably would have had a few more if it wasn t for exam trials and injuries. Blake Byrne went on to be announced in the U17 rep carnival team. A big thank you goes to Margaret Cassidy. Your organising ability, s, Facebook posts and patience made my job so much easier this year. Margaret s mettle was really tested in the return game with Moore Park-Newtown.They were insisting on playing 17-on-17 when we had earlier agreed to playing 16-a-side plus a bench. In the first two quarters they persistently tried to get Margaret to have me change my mind. I told Margaret we are standing our ground. Your resilience to put up with them and, in particular, me is a testimony to your character. Junior AFL teams are not successful unless they have a band of helpers. Our U17 parents are definitely the pick of the crop. Runners, water-carriers, boundary umpires, goal umpires, statistics, ground managers, emergency response, medical, BBQ, coffee and canteen, all our parents dug in and I thank you for your support in all these vital areas that make a club and team so special.

79 U17s PLAYER PROFILES TIMOTHY ADAMS Had a solid season playing as our first-choice full-back. Tim was always reliable and very competitive. Being the key defender can be a thankless task and the elevation to Div 1 saw Tim playing on bigger and more skillful players. In response, he took his game to a higher level and really developed his ability to out-position opponents with solid body work and win crucial marks and spoils. PHILIPPE ALAIS Had his season cut short by a broken collarbone in round five and couldn t play again. He contributed well in the early part of the season playing mainly as a forward pocket or forward flanker. He showed his good goal sense by kicking a few nice goals and we missed his contributions on the scoreboard as the season progressed. MARCUS BARR A new recruit in 2017, Marcus hadn t played AFL before but had an impact from his first game: his first touch was a mark and his first kick was a goal. He proved to be an excellent marking player and had the knack of always finding the ball. He was always eager to listen and learn and quickly improved his game. He was a great contributor in 2017 and achieved a lot in this first year. WILL BURTON Another new recruit in 2017, Will came to the club as an unknown but quickly showed he had played before and had a lot to contribute. Will was a very tenacious and competitive player whose ability to tackle, chase and harass opponents was outstanding. He was strong in the contest at all times and made a great contribution to the team, excelling with his defensive pressure, while showing plenty of pace with ball in hand. BLAKE BYRNE Was a very important player for us this year with his size and versatility. He played in the ruck, as a key forward and even on the ball where he used his size to impact the contest for the inside ball. His value to the team is evident by the fact that he was often switched several times in a game to play different roles. Blake s enthusiasm for a physical contest was also invaluable to us after our promotion to Div 1. BILLY CHUDLEIGH Billy had a stellar year and was always among our best. He has a great burst of speed and attacks the ball with pace, shows excellent judgment under pressure and executes well with his accurate kicking and hand-passing. As Co-Club Captain, he is a very strong competitor who finds a way to impose himself on the game with a great mark or a skillful run and his kicking is always precise. Although traditionally a defender, Billy was used at times as forward this year and showed glimpses of mercurial talent as he snagged some very clever goals. FINN CROWLEY Had a very strong season playing as a versatile swingman, forward or back. Finn is a very competitive player who has the size to impact the game for us in a variety of key roles. He is always focused and keen to beat his opponent and plays to win. He took some great marks this year and he will be back as one of the pillars of the U17s in 2018 where he will surely be a dominant force. TOM DESSENT Could only make a couple of games for us this year when rugby commitments and injuries permitted. Tom reminded us each time what we were missing as he shows a lot of positional sense around the ground. He is a team player who links up well with his teammates and always made a handy contribution. BRENDAN DOYLE Had a good year playing mainly as a small forward where he contributed some valuable goals. Brendan is skilful with great goal sense, and handles the ball very cleanly and finishes off with a reliable kick. Brendan had to step up twice this year, once coming up from the U15s and then again with our promotion to Div 1. He was a gutsy performer and will return as an influential player for the U17s in GLEBE JAFC 2017 YEARBOOK 79

80 MILES GLOVER As co-captain, Miles had a great year in He played forward in the first part of the season before moving to defence where he was a standout on our half back-line. He always had a big leap and clean hands and he used this to great effect in defence as an intercepting player. He reads the game well and found a lot of the ball down back, always a threat to the opposition either with his accurate kicking or searing runs. JOTARO HOWARD-SHIBUYA Was a gutsy performer and great warrior for the team in Jojo gives 100% effort and is an inspiration to the team with his attitude to compete to the very end and never give in. Around the ground he is fast and handles the ball well, whether under a high ball or cleanly picking up a ground ball at pace. As Co-Club Captain, he was a great leader in 2017 with his drive and passion for the Greyhounds always providing a lift. Well done Jojo on a great season. JOSHUA KERR A hard-working player who can play anywhere and won t let you down. Played in the ruck at the beginning of the season and was highly competitive with a strong work ethic. Also played half forward, where he dominated and kicked a few goals. In defence he was tireless and unrelenting. Another great season from an all-rounder who never stopped. Great work Josh. NICHOLAS LEES Had an outstanding season and was always among our best. Played on the wing for most of the season due to his great outside run ability as well as superior fitness. A great player to watch when running with the ball in hand, and always beat his man with his burst of pace and step which left many defenders behind. His ability to turn defence into attack was superb. Clean hands, the ability to take pack marks, tackle and kick goals makes Nick the complete footballer. Well done Nick. THOMAS LINFIELD KENT Highest goal-scorer for the team and a super talented player. Played most of the season as a strong-marking forward, but his clean hands enabled him to play on the ball from time to time to give a bit of variety to our midfield. To cap it off he played at centre half-back in the last few games to give us more run-and-carry and did an outstanding job pushing the ball forward and chipping in with a few goals off the back-line. Well done Tom. ANGUS MACDOUGALL One of the hard nuts in the team who never lets you down. Deservedly picked in the City rep team this year and was arguably one of the best players of the tournament. An outstanding back-line player who was relentless in defence, never giving an inch. Put into the high-pressure role of doing the kick-outs at the end of the season, Angus did a superb job with his radar boot. One of the most fearless players in the team and always went to the aid of his mates. A loyal clubman and a pleasure to coach. ANGUS MCNAMARA Angus had a few injuries this year which reduced his playing time. Notwithstanding that, every time he played he had impact. Angus was used across the back-line and given free licence to move down to the midfield to give us extra run, and then create the extra man in the forwards. With his outstanding pace and ability to evade defenders, he did this extremely well. Has a great footy brain and reads the play well. He was our master at switching the ball across the back-line to the fat side of the ground to change the point of attack and find loose men. Well done Angus and stick to AFL. OLIVER MORGAN-AUGUST Started off the season in the back-line and was brutal in defence. Left his mark on opposition players with bruising tackles and perfectly timed shepherds. Used his body well with beautiful clean hands and took some outstanding overhead pack marks. Moved onto the ball in the latter part of the season to crash his way through the opposition midfield and kicked some great long-distance goals. Well done Ollie. CHE MUNRO Another all-rounder who can play anywhere. Has an outstanding work ethic around the field, fierce defence and a good motor. Played on-ball for most of the season, as well as backing up in the ruck when required. Always hard at the ball and has great game sense. Kicked a few good goals this year and a worthy selection in the City rep team. Great season Che. LEWIS PATTON A versatile player who played well both up forward and down back. A third-year player at the club who has settled in extremely well. Played his best football this year in the forward-line taking some great marks, and dishing off assists with great use of hand-ball. Kicked some much-needed high-pressure set shot goals when the game was in the balance which lifted the spirits of the team. Well done Lewis. RORY POTTER One of our team favourites starting his playing career in 2011 and clocked up 100 games in the last home-and-away game at Jubilee. A fierce competitor who always goes hard for the ball and is relentless in defence. Reads the play well and is a true team inspiration, regularly backing up with second, third, fourth and fifth efforts. Has been a pleasure to coach over the years. Well done Rory and thanks for your club loyalty and team spirit. FRANCIS RYAN Another new player to AFL, Francis has plenty of natural ability and showed he is a tireless competitor who shows a good understanding of the game. As one of the other younger players in our squad, Francis was injured early in the season and found it hard to remain injury-free. He was gutsy when he was on the field. 80 GLEBE JAFC 2017 YEARBOOK

81 U17s JAMES SCUTELLA Our co-captain. One of two players in the team who clocked up 13 continuous years of footy at the club. Finished with over 200 club games and over 250 goals. Fearless head-over-the-ball player who doesn t give up, took a few good pack marks and played predominantly in the midfield and, from time to time, in the forwards. Pulled off the tackle of the year in the return game against St Ives which snuffed out any chance of their comeback and helped put us in the semifinals. Thank you for your service James. COOPER SEARLE A naturally talented and gifted player who had a cracking year. Kicks off his left foot just as well as his right. Backed this up by kicking a crucial left-foot goal in the clincher against St Ives. Cooper is a player who belongs in highlevel footy. Was totally fearless for the ball putting in a number of second efforts, pulling off some crunching tackles and taking some spectacular marks. A much loved and reliable team player who has plenty of courage, Cooper will be a gun when he continues in his senior footy career. Well done Cooper. OSCAR TIERNEY One of our most under-rated and reliable players, and also the only natural left-footer in the team. It was always easy to work out what side of the field to put Oscar on. Positioned predominantly in the back-line, he played with plenty of confidence. He wasn t intimidated by the size of other players, or the fact he was one of the youngest and smallest players on the field. On some occasions early in the season he played on-ball and was fearless. Wasn t scared to play on and take on the man on the mark and have a crack. Well done Oscar. TOM STAPLETON Another one of our unsung heroes who was able to play anywhere. Started off the season up forward and, from time to time, was switched down back to help out in defence. In the back half of the season he went into the ruck and he smashed all opponents. Played unchanged in the ruck for most games and displayed his superior fitness levels running, rucking, marking and kicking goals. Probably the best season I have seen him play. Had plenty of enthusiasm and confidence and played a senior role in the team. Well done Tom. GLEBE JAFC 2017 YEARBOOK 81

92 GLEBE GREYHOUNDS JAFC Life Member 2017 DON CHUDLEIGH By Peter Gowers In the history of the Greyhounds, there are members who have made contributions to the Club, members who have made enormous contributions to the Club, members who have sacrificed their lives for the Club and then there s Don Chudleigh. Awarding Don Life Membership is inadequate. Granting him freehold title of Jubilee Oval would be more appropriate recognition of his services to the Greyhounds together with a knighthood Arise Sir Donald of Jubilee! Many members lay claim to first bringing Don to the Greyhounds. Countless evenings have been spent discussing when Don first appeared at Jubilee. Let s settle this debate here and now. I introduced Don Chudleigh to the Greyhounds. He popped his head in the clubhouse one day and said he would like to help on the BBQ. I immediately pointed him in the direction of our old two-burner. During his years at the club, not only did he help on the BBQ but Don took the BBQ to a new level of service and sophistication never seen before in Sydney Harbour Junior or Senior AFL. There are not enough pages in the yearbook to list all Don s contributions to our club. Don built the clubhouse. Council then moved our club to a new arch. Don then built another clubhouse. After receipt of yet another Council relocation notice, Don built another clubhouse in our current location (including a new concrete floor). The introduction of a coffee machine, envied by coffee shops and restaurants all over Sydney, was Don s initiative. New BBQs and bain maries purchased by Don allowed us to cater for members and visitors in style and in full compliance with all applicable WH&S laws. He introduced Tuesday Night Tucker which subsequently translated to Thursday Night Tucker which was enthusiastically embraced by all parents. Don has always been the cool head under pressure at the Club. The man with the answers. Don, we are out of milk for the coffee machine! Don s reply: Someone will have to go and buy some then, he would reply. Don, the BBQ won t light! Don s reply: Turn the gas bottle on. But most of all, Don will be remembered as a person who always put his hand up to help no matter what the task. If trophies needed collecting for presentation day, Don would do it. If we needed to speak to Council about garbage collection, oval closures, etc, Don would do it. If someone was needed to cook for the Beer Night, Don would do it. If supplies for the canteen were needed, Don would do it. If someone was needed to provide a son to kick the winning goal in an U17s Grand Final, Don would do it. It would be impossible to count the number of hours which Don Chudleigh has spent at Jubilee Oval. He was a constant presence at every home game Saturday and Sunday. Weekends and weeknights during the off-season also saw him hard at work for the club he loved. A club that loved him in return. I was honoured to be asked to write an article for Don Chudleigh on his admission to Life Membership. His contribution, dedication and generosity to the Greyhounds have been immeasurable. The final siren has sounded on Don s time at the Greyhounds. It is time to give Don back to his family. However, he leaves Jubilee Oval with the Best on Ground Award and the position of fullback in the Greyhounds team of the century. Always a safe pair of hands. He will never be forgotten. 92 GLEBE JAFC 2017 YEARBOOK
