Four Grand Finals, Two Flags and a Party

Grand Final day, 29 August was a great one for FJFC with four sides competing for premiership flags. Congratulations to all four participating teams for excellent seasons.

The day started at Stradbroke Park in Kew with the U10 Golds up against Glen Iris. Despite a valiant effort by the U10s, Glen Iris prevailed on the day to take home the flag.

Next up were the U13 Browns against Park Orchards at Ivanhoe Park. After a tight struggle, a gallant Fitzroy hit the lead in the final quarter, only to be pipped at the post by a late goal to Park Orchards.

Back at Stradbroke Park the U14 Blues were taking on Doncaster. In another tight encounter, the U14s had their noses in front for most of the game, with Doncaster getting to within 1 point half-way into the last quarter. The Roys dug deep though, to finally win the flag by 26 points.

In the last clash of the day at Stradbroke Park, the U12 Browns took on Hawthorn Citizens. With scores level at 2 goals each at quarter time, the U12 Roys knew they had a fight on their hands. However, drawing on the experience of a great season, they kicked away in the second half to win by 46 points.

The day was rounded out with a celebratory gathering and presentation of the Grand Final teams at the Fitzroy Bowling Club, where tall tales and true of the day's events were exchanged by all involved.

Roys Scoop Awards on Gala Night

In an exciting night for family and friends, no fewer than five FJFC stars took home League Best & Fairest Awards at the YJFL Awards Night on Tuesday 24 August.

The night started with Matteo Bombardieri winning the U10 Black B&F, followed quickly by Harrison Grace taking out the U10 Gold top prize. Ray Hunter won the U12 Brown B&F with 35 votes and Isaac Wattis took home the U14 Green honours. Hugh Curnow rounded out a great night for the Roys by winning the U15 Div B&F, well deserved after some close calls in previous years.

Some of our Award winners (and brothers!): Back row (left to
right): Michael Ercolano, Ted Clayton, Jack Hart, Bill Clayton, Gus Richardson, Ray Hunter; Front row: Harrison Grace, Nino Lazzaro and Luke Minahan.

In between times, there were plenty of other medals and top performances. Raphael Barresi was runner up in the U11 Blue division, and Gus Richardson and Michael Ercolana were 2nd and 3rd respectively in U13 Brown. Others to finish in the top ten included Jack Hart (U10 Gold), Ted Clayton and Nino Lazzaro (U11 Gold), Luke Minahan (U11 Green), Josh Wall (U12 Blue), Digby Houghton and Ahmed Saleem (U14 Blue), David Cappellari (U15 Div 1) and Dylan O’Neill (Colts Div 2).
