Rd10 saw the mens senior team return home for their first game in 2yrs after a mammoth road trip & almost mid season break. The squad made the most of their week off with some guys pissing it up on Friday night, others sat in front of the box watching sport all weekend & some went on romantic getaways to Daylesford...with each other. The gaffer made a couple changes to the senior squad with Onur 'Gurkan Ozkan' Karauzum unfortunately suffering a serious knee injury while trying to make a 'palm tree whiggle' like his idol Jean Claude Van Dam did in the 90's blockbuster film, Kickboxer...all the best mate and a speedy recovery to you. Mrs Silvio Busso (formerly Colaluca) also got the chop & replaced by beau Stefan 'chucky' Busso. James 'tap tap' Boston was a welcome return after a shotgun trip to the UK to visit his better half in which he asked her if she could extend her stay at the prestigious Oxford Uni so he could piss it up just a tad longer without any regret or an angry wife to return home to. Daniel 'lock up your daughters' Seiny benefited from only chucking up 10 times at Dave Inter's infamous do the previous week to get a call up to the 1's. Young Chris 'wet behind the ears George Martin' Oghanna retained his place in the 14 due to an impressive new hair do. It was a mature decision to take a bit off the sides & fringe as he did instead of going the typical Y Gen haircut young punks like Nick 'disco' Vissaris have done in the past (looking good these days though, disco). Young Chris also got rid of the fluro 'finochio' boots and purchased a straight black pair which would've brought a tear to former coach John Gillespie's eyes. He is now preaching his ways to the likes of Matthew Oghanna & various others from the club Enough of that now and on to the game...

Despite Maribyrnong's league position, they came out with an attacking attitude constantly taking the game to la trobe. The back held up by James 'tap tap' boston & Daniel 'lock up your daughters' seiny saw off most of these attacks however the warning shots were fired by the Greens. The ground I must add was in terrible condition with gum boots the choice of footwear by most players. Play was from end to end during spells of the first half until there was an error in the Greens back line which saw David 'our English run around the keeper friend' greening end up being one/one against former La trobe trialist '....Steve' & as you prob can guess from there, 1-0 to la trobe. The Greens then decided to start getting physical with the lads by roughing up a couple lads & challenging with some fierce tackles, one of which lead to a free kick just outside the box for la trobe. Up stepped Luca 'how's my hair' Lavalle hot off a recent free kick scored during the Westgate game to have a crack. He only had sight of a 50man wall with some spectators called from the crowd by coach finanzio however that didn't trouble the teams self proclaimed pretty boy as he struck a 'sweet' shot on to the cross bar when a gust of wind then elevated Lil David 'blinkers' G to somehow meet the ball in the air and have it ricochet off his noggin in to the back of the net....2-0 La Trobe went in to the sheds at half time however the coaching staff were far from happy with some bits of the game which were translated to the team at full volume by coach 'neck vein' finanzio.

The team came out in the second half with the aim to correct the bad & seemingly got the idea however it still wasn't up to scratch. Nick 'shaggy' Hendry hasn't had much of a mention yet so I will take this opportunity to mention him...nick 'shaggy' Hendry.....ok now to the rest of the match report....joking, nick was energetic as the last man in defense & took one for the team when he received a knock to the noggin. This seemed to spark a fire in a couple of the lads who rushed in to kindly ask the greens forward 'WTF are you doing?' the charge was lead by Peter 'elle macpherson' natsis with his much loved Mariah careyesque voice letting out a few choice words. After that died down, la trobe were soon dealt a blow with influential backman James 'tap tap' boston tweeking his hammy. It was later discovered that this was due to his regular first class seat not being available for his journey from Heathrow – Tullamarine & he had to settle for a Business class seat. The lack of leg room contributed to his hammy strain...Anthony 'Serie C all time legend' Deluca was then introduced & la trobe went back on the attack and sure enough david 'our english run around the keeper friend' greening went for a casual stroll from half way with only the keeper within sight. Anthony 'serie C all time legend' deluca was steaming along side in hope of a square ball from greening however greening had only 1 thing in mind.....and he made it 6/9 goals having taken the keeper on. The coaching staff have yet to prove him wrong but are waiting for their chance to. From this point one would've thought game set match yeah? Well on the 1st anniversary of the infamous La trobe v Moreland almost choke, La Trobe thought they would pay homage to the team of Rd13 4th July 2009 & reenact that performance. Fortunately for the coaching staff and supporters, they ran out of time at 3-2 and a penalty decision which was overruled by an offside call which most believe wasn't off side but was a penalty which wasn't to be....final whistle 3-2 La Trobe.

Men of the match – the maribyrnong greens for turning up 5 minutes before kick off smoking a dougen, having the captain walk off mid game in disgust at his team only to walk back on when he was told he wouldn't receive his match payment of a pack of Peter Stuyvensant ciggies, having another player play while posing for a photo with his hands on his head......& ALMOST FARKIN DRAWING THE GAME!!!

The Eagle.
