Congratulations to Scott Ellis who played his 100th game for the club. A popular club stalwart, Scotty is currently the captain of the Reserves team. He has reached this significant milestone despite missing a couple of seasons through injury. Strong overhead, he has been the backbone of the Ressie’s defence, although more recently he has spent some time in the forward line. Well done Scotty.
Those who watched the recent game between North Melbourne and St. Kilda would have thought it amusing to see past Bloods players Matt Brewer (North) and Tony Brown (St. Kilda) attending to the running duties for their respective clubs. Of course Browny has bit more experience, previously enjoying that role at Collingwood. He was clearly passing on a few tips during the game when their paths crossed, much to Brew’s surprise.
Good to see the most recent addition to the Loewe clan there yesterday. Six week old Oliver was rugged up against the elements, but a new junior jumper has been put on order. Loewey and Katrina are both proud parents.
Saturday’s Lunch was a huge success with many memories revived. It was great to see so many club stalwarts in the same room. Well done to Peter Bowring and David Southgate, the masterminds behind a day that will become entrenched in the calendar. Of course we thank our sponsors, Moo Meats and Heathcote Vine for their contributions. Their products are available to club supporters.
Ridgy’s bag of seven on Saturday was the sixth time he has kicked more than six goals in a game for the club. Good going in two and a half years at the club. It proved once again that he is one of the top forwards in the amateur competition.
Coach of the B-D Grade VAFA side, Brett Voss, will be pleased with Ridgy’s form as he has been named to represent the Big V again. Team mate, Adam Weekes, who also played well yesterday, has made the squad to take on Vic Country. Alex Woltering has been named in the U/19s squad. These VAFA games will be taking place on the weekend of the 6th of July. Congratulations to all involved.
