Werribee Tigers50 YEARS

President’smessage

Julia Gillard’smessage

In 1965, when a fresh faced Brian Holcombe led the very fi rst Werribee side onto the ground no one could have envisaged the rollercoaster ride that has taken place in the 50 years since then. The club has endured long periods of minimal success on the fi eld and constant battles with fi nances off the fi eld. I am happy to say that in recent times we have turned both those situations around. While we only have one senior premiership cup in our trophy cabinet, that is not the only way to judge success.

We have survived when others have fallen by the wayside. Sunshine, Yarraville, Oakleigh and Geelong West - to name a few - are VFA clubs that no longer exist. We have developed champions like Dale Morris, Ben Hudson, James Podsiadly and Michael Barlow and the next crop in Kyle Hartigan, Luke McDonald, Ben Ross and Ben Brown.

We are in the process of committing to alarge-scale redevelopment of our home ground provided we get the necessary support from Council, state and federal governments and supporters of the club. This is the future of the club: to allow us to be as competitive off the

fi eld as we are on it. We need to give our on and off fi eld staff the best facilities to bridge the gap between us and our VFL and AFL competitors.

While there are clubs that have been around longer than us, rest assured there are no clubs more determined and dedicated to representing their city, their sponsors and their supporters than the Werribee Football Club.Go Tigers.

John NicolPresident Werribee Football Club

The colder wintry air that now defi nes our days and nights reminds us that another season has arrived - footy season. The change to the winter wardrobe always means reacquainting myself with my tried and trusted Werribee Tigers scarf. Though I now live in Adelaide, I am proud that the club has asked me to continue as Patron, a role I thoroughly enjoy and embrace.

The Werribee Football Club is celebrating its 50th year and its rich and proud history revolves around a dedicated group of people who have served the club for decades. Past servants of the club have moved on, but today the likes of President John Nicol, CEO Mark Penaluna, major sponsor Tino Ballan and hundreds of others carry the torch of the club into a new and exciting future, whilst acknowledging the deeds of the past.

I want to offer everyone involved at the club my best wishes for the season ahead and I look forward to joining the celebrations of half a century of the Tigers roaring at Chirnside Park, or Avalon Airport Oval as it is now known.

Julia GillardPatron, Werribee Football Club

Tigers in the communityThe Community Development arm of the Werribee Football Club has hit the ground running in 2014, with the appointment of Majok “Shaggy” Ngong as Multicultural Development Offi cer and Sam Mahoney as Project Offi cer. Together they will be focusing on getting culturally and linguistically diverse residents involved in sport.

The community team has had a busy start to the year with a number of events happening in and around Wyndham, including the Weerama Festival, Unity Cup and the Multicultural Fiesta.

The annual Weerama Festival helped kick start the year with the Werribee players involved in the street parade. Players pleased the crowd by giving away footballs and club merchandise to kids and parents lining Watton Street.

Mackillop College boys and girls represented the club and won its fi rst Unity Cup Victorian Championship in the girls division recently at

JJ Holland Park, Kensington. The Unity Cup brings together Victoria’s diverse multicultural communities for a day of fun and football, where language barriers and cultural differences are forgotten, amidst the joy of kicking around a Sherrin.

The Unity Cup was followed up with the Multicultural Fiesta held at the Werribee Mansion on March 23 which attracted hundreds of people to multicultural food stalls, dancing and football activities run by the Werribee players.

The club will continue its partnership with North Melbourne Football Club through the six week ‘Huddle in Schools Program’ and continue its multicultural schools program in primary and secondary schools running each term of the year.

For more information on upcoming community activities please contact Chris Gallagher on9741 6688.

Werribee Tigers50 YEARS

Some of theglory of fifty years1964: The romantic notion of Werribee having its own team in the VFL moved closer to reality after a meeting of interested persons on May 25th,1964 at Chirnside Park. 32 people attended that meeting and a committee was formed to make a presentation to the VFA for Werribee to be included in the competition from 1965. The late Roy Sheehan (father of Mike) and a well known local business and sports person was elected president of the committee which included Alan Cations, Ray Smith and Bruce Comben.

1965: Brian Holcombe leads Werribee in its fi rst VFA match against Sunshine at Skinner Reserve. Werribee battled away all day and were only 30 points down at three-quarter time before Sunshine rattled on 8 goals to win by 82 points. (Sunshine 18-15-123

Werribee 5-11-41). Don Traianon scored the Tigers fi rst ever goal in the VFA. Banner reporter Mike Sheehan wrote “ Werribee commenced their maiden match in the VFA most impressively at Sunshine last Sunday when they held their accomplished opponents to a hard fought 30 point lead at the last change”.

1968: Werribee played fi nals for the fi rst time in its history after making the four under captain-coach Neil Crompton. Sunshine were the combatants and won by 31 points. Sunshine 12.24.102 d Werribee 10.11.71 Best Players: Ogilvie, Richens, Crellin, Gillett, Comben, Lyons, D.Smith.

1991: Werribee blow a four goal half time lead to lose the 1991 Grand Final to Dandenong. Boasting players

like Neale Danaher, Leon Harris Lynton Fitzpatrick, Richard Geary, Rod MacPherson and Damian Drum, the Tigers ran out of legs in the fi nal term going down by 9 points. Dandenong 15.15.105 d Werribee 14.12.96. Anthony Eames won the 1991 J.J Liston Trophy voted by the umpires and the best and fairest player in the VFL. The honour has been won four times since by Werribee players Paul Satterley (1995), Michael Frost (1998), James Podsiadly (2008) and Ben Ross in (2012).

1993: Our ‘One Day in September” winning our fi rst and only senior fl ag. Captain-coach Donald McDonald led his team to victory over Port Melbourne in a game as memorable for the astonishing fi nal moments of bedlam, as the fairytale result for

the Tigers faithful. Werribee ruckman David Allday won the Norm Goss Medal for best on ground. Werribee 10.10.70 Port Melbourne 4..4.28. Goals: Lamont 3, Geary 3, Button 2, Raeburn, McDonald. Best Players: Wilson, Allday, Geary, Button, Wilkins, Lamont, Rienierts, Watts, Harrington, Williams.

2013: For the third year in a row the Tigers make the preliminary fi nal and for the third year in a row we come up short, this time to the eventual 2013 premiers, Box Hill Hawks. Jarred Moore wins the Bruce Montgomery Trophy as the Best and Fairest for the year. Luke McDonald and Ben Brown are drafted by North Melbourne and Ben Ross is rookie listed by Hawthorn.1993 Premiership player John Lamont is appointed senior coach.
