Bumped into new Montmorency coach Nick Rutley and he was raving about his young player Cam Nyko, Essendon VFL-listed this year. The mid-forward had his first senior game with Monty on Saturday after a 10-month lay-off and was a 'class above'. Rutley reckons he's one to watch.

Handy VAFA Premier debut for Elliot Mahoney, 18 and the son of Josh, for St Kevin's on Saturday. Went into the side late after Sam Davidson was called up to Richmond VFL and kicked three goals. Liam Walters and Billy McGee Galimberti also debuted in the win over Xavs.

Has there been a more senior Old Xaverians first-gamer than 39-year-old Jeffrey Gobbels? The former WAFL player and Balwyn captain joined Xavs as an assistant coach but booted three on Saturday against St Kevin's.

10-year premiership reunion on Saturday for the Fitzroy Doncaster CC Second XI premiership team. The Lions came from sixth to win it,
knocking over Richmond (third), Carlton (first) and Dandenong (second). Plenty went on to play good First XI cricket.

Victoria well represented in the Australian Over 50s squad to tour England in June. It's a case of OMK to the UK for Leongatha and District CA paceman Peter Dell.
