Bevo is an outstanding coach and person...as always his speech post match on the ground was humble...praised the oppositon and of course his warriors and his club, the crowd and officials....and the last people he and Tigers Reserves coach Tim Lamb chatted to before leaving Sandy was Tim O'Shannassy and Ajax officials....just pure quality.
He has the Silverware which is just reward.
I haven't read anything from Scribe about Saturday yet?????
Richard Clay Torpedoes said:Lozza,
I knew the answer to your question as I was also at this match in 1979 - Ajax vs Marcellin if my memory serves me correct...first ever game of VAFA footy I saw...think 1 or 2 of the Rittermans might have been running around this day?? So I guess I lay claim to having been at both games!!
I know the Tigers did an enormous amount of publicity in the week leading up to Saturday via email, mail, sms and in shops around their home base area to drum up their supporters...Having a large Junior section of their club also helps in this respect and there was a large turnout of other local clubs - Beaumaris, Parkdale etc...which when added to the Ajax supporter numbers created a nice earner for the VAFA.

GetSmart said:From where I watched the game all the Ajax fans were great. It did seem though that a lot of them had no clue about football, but were happy to be there to support their team. Which is fair enough. Back to the footy. How though did Ajax run out of legs (which they did) when their coach has an athletics background? Also thought that AJax were too worried about certain tiger players which unbalanced them the longer the game went. The Tigers kicked 15 goals to 7 from midway thru the second term to be get stronger as the game progressed.

Love him or hate him Tommy has really matured since being on the Executive and his handling of the after match presentations to the Umpires, Ajax, and SBMT was first class and we should all be congratulating him. Well done Mr Brain......

lozza5 said:Hey Josh, where were you watching the game from. Bloom was felled by that hero Kinsella behind the play at the start of the game. That was the only time he hit the deck. I suppose you condone spitting too? Be gracefull in the fact that SBMT won the game and on the day Ajax were not up to the challange. Never the less, you would have to go a long way to see a better game.
augie said:Went to SB when I was a kid. Played against SBMT nad AJAX a few years back. Ajax seemed okay. As for SBMT - not a bad bunch of blokes but always had a few more tools than most clubs. That probably explains the childish crap from Surly and Josh.
Must have been a cracker of a game though. Congrats to both clubs.
