CORONA VIRUS Attention all Raiders. You may have heard of this virus going around that is causing all sorts of mayhem. NBA, Grand Prix, One Day Cricket and potentially the AFL are all affected on a grand scale. Many sporting clubs are instigating safety practices and the Raiders are now also joining that list. Please
Legends Round 9 Raiders V Geelong Everyone has their Everest to conquer. David had Goliath, NASA had the Moon, the Spartans had the Persians (and their damn rugs…always discounted. Fuck, don’t you wish one day you could just pay full price for a Persian rug?) Harry had Sally, Emilio Estevez and the Mighty Ducks had..well
Reserves headed to Casey fields to take on Cranbourne who have been undefeated all year We spoke pre game of accountability around stoppages and bringing effort and hardness to our game, as we needed competitive 4 qtr effort Our first half was fantastic, the boys really wanted to make a statement with strong tackling and
We had a really god win today in the in the 45s/Masters whatever we’re called. The result was never in doubt before the game even started, but the way our boys applied themselves was fantastic. Plenty of goals up at quarter time, but not moving the ball well enough into the forward line. Powelly pleaded
Reserves headed to Crib Point to take on Dingley in Rnd 8 This match was a season defining game for the reserves to keep finals hopes alive. The weather was appalling and wet weather footy and grinding out a result was required. The boys were fantastic all day and absorbed the Dingley pressure around the
Despite the arctic conditions that would see even a polar bear stay at home.. in true raiders spirit the forty fives took to the ice-skating rink they call Crib point. Our back line was as solid as an iceberg, with some of our over fifties showing the way ( Rugby Ross, Razor Ray, Terry and
Rnd 7 Reserves versus Mordialloc Round 7 we were back at the raider dome to take on Mordialloc – another good even contest for the reserves. The boys started the game well and had plenty of the ball from the first contest, however poor disposal was letting our ability to get on the scoreboard.The conditions
R. 7 Legends Vs South Yarra Big day and hopes were high. Day still big but hopes dashed. 10 goals is a lot of goals To be honest, we were under done. Let’s give credit to the Yarra boys, their midfield was awesome. Big, mobile and aggressive. That number 11 nabbed best on ground and
Great day for the 45s today, and we won by plenty. We wore the black arm bands for our mate Army, and Lenny’s dear mum Ruth. I was worried that it would be a waste of time, and just plain miserable for the Mordy boys, but they played and battled well despite the scoreboard. We
Round 6 Legends Vs Frankston A big day. Not only Tugboats 200th game but also Ladies day at the Raiderdome. Hopes were high for a close game and a win. After we completed our brief warm up and loosened up a little..had a chat, talked about what was on the telly, swapped recipes and…. Yes…?
Great morning for the 45s. We won by plenty against a competent opponent. Probably/possibly our most impressive performance yet. Powelly told us how to roll and that’s how we rolled. First bounce C’Mack to Parksy and goal within 30 seconds, nice. That was impressive but more so was the tackling, harassing, smothers ,blocks, shepherds, punches
The Reserves we’re back at the Raiderdome for Rnd 6 against Frankston, which was an important game for our season to stay on track We had some great inclusions for the game. Incey was back from America, Coaks having run in the twos and returning to the team Juice,Bramma & Tommy Walker for his first
Rd 5 Supers v Carrum Heading up the road again to Carrum to play our 4th road game in a row, with what would have to be almost our best side on paper. On paper doesn’t always translate into great performances , but in this instance I was really happy with the way we went
The Reserves were off to Carrum for round 5 and were committed to come away with the points to finish our 4 in a row away game fixture Our first qtr was positive and we held a moderate lead at qtr time, we spoke about better disposal into our forward line being needed and more
Legends Round 5 Raiders V Carrum There are things in life that are just essential. Small things that need to be checked off before you begin. Take parachuting for example. Crippled plane. CHECK Open canopy. CHECK Hit eject button. CHECK Watch parachute billow out above your head. Uh oh Even if you’re a Beefeater guarding
The Over 45s had a trip up to Mordy this morning, And we won by plenty. All our boys played well, Stevie, Morrie, and Gabe got hurt. Charlie kicked 10, The original quiet achiever Chopper was terrific, Their best players were us, filling in for their Masters, who should have been backing up like we
Reserves travelled to Beaconsfield for another away game We discussed pre game about taking our good work from the Waverley win and continuing to work on first option ball usage and plenty of voice around contest and ball carrier Beaconsfield got off to a flyer and we rallied late to be 20 points down at
Not a great day for the 45s today, Lost by plenty infact. We just asked the boys to run with them and check them out, The result was inconsequential, but it would have been nice to have been a lot closer. Pretty ground, great conditions after quarter time, not a bad bunch of blokes. Their
Round 4 Legends V Beaconsfield In the afterglow of the Federal election as ScoMo relaxed, lit up a cigarette and moved over so slightly to avoid the wet patch, the raider legends descended on Beaconfield at 9am. Kicking the dew off the ground was an understatement. Not even Keith Greig and his Super Sopper could
Rd 3 Supers v Waverley Heading up the road again to Oakleigh to play Waverley ( Jordo 3 cheers for bayside ) , we had a fantastic first quarter jumping out of the blocks and piling on 4.5 to nothing . The second quarter was a totally different story and really for the first time
Raiders Legends V Waverley Round 3 We’ve all heard of the International Date line. It’s where one day in one country is another day in a different country even though it’s the same day for the planet. How this works is irrelevant but we have to appreciate that Saturday was Star Wars day (May the
Reserves Rnd 3 were on the road again, this time to Waverley, really Oakleigh which sort of felt like Clayton We spoke pre game of improvement needed from last weeks poor performance against Bayside around voice, accountability for a man and first option ball use, the boys needed to keep it basic to get some
The 45s had the privilege of playing at the proper Frankston footy ground, but unfortunately we had to start at 9.30am. Beautiful place to play, great facilities, sunny and little wind. What could possibly go wrong you ask? We played as well as they let us on the slippery dewy surface, the ball felt like
Rd 2 Supers v Bayside. Well another big day for the Supers boys with 4 more new players who ran out for the first time. This took us to 13 overall new players in the first 2 weeks! Wowee! Heading up the road to highett to play bayside, we had a steady start throughout the
Legends Round 2 Raiders V Essendon Coburg at Coburg, Essendon at Airport West and Waverley on Mars. Life in the Legends is one big long road trip punctuated by petrol stops, a Maccas drive thrus and piss stops after the bottleshop stop. For the last 542 million years or certainly since the Paleozoic Era (certainly
Round 2 the Reserves travelled up the Nepean Hwy to Highett to play Bayside Saints. Unfortunately we lost CMac in the warm up and from there our day was pretty ordinary across the board. Bayside came to play and they played their home ground well with good spread and smart plays to advantage. We struggled
A very tired and emotional bunch of over 45s will head off to bed now, and there will be worse to come tomorrow morning. A cracking game from our boys today and a comfortable win. Six different players from last game with Phil Stoney making his debut for the club and Bradders playing his 100th
Rd 1 Supers v Cranbourne Well a big day for the Supers boys with 9 new players who ran out for the first . This on top of all our new blokes from last , it’s a very different side than 12 months ago ! Playing against Cranbourne who we haven’t had great success against
A day of firsts. Theres a lot of first in the world world history is full of them. Armstrong and Aldrin first. Yuri Gagarin first. Donald Campbell first. Lewis and Clark first. The Titanic first..but not in a good way. Stephen Bradbury first…also last but first. And so it was that April 13th was a
The Reserves took on Cranbourne in round 1, which was always going to be a good hit out and gauge on where the group was at. We started off the game well and brought good pressure and contest to the opposition, this continued into the second quarter where our backline and midfield worked together well
The over 45s had a cracking morning winning by plenty. Not sure who was the best but the skippa Stevie was kinda inspirational. No passengers today, however my little girl Ada asked me at three quarter time if I’d been on the ground yet. JV and Juppy literally ran themselves to exhaustion just as I

Round 6 v South Yarra On a perfect day for Football apart from the howling gale and driving rain. The Legends took to the Raiderdome against South Yarra. With only 18 fit Legends from the usual team we called on Bradders, Parksy and Noons (50th game for the Raiders) to help us out. With the
Match report. 2nd game at the dome in a row, we played host to carrum, the conditions we once again perfect, also with such a big weekend on the football calendar, what a Fantastic Gesture it was for Bretta to hand over the reins to Byron to lead us out for the day, everyone was
Supers vs Carrum Well what a great result on Sunday on all accounts. Wokka, myself and all the coaching staff were absolutely stoked with the results and output we were able to achieve. Disappointing for the Legends not to get a game, then the masters got the day off to a great start. From the
Masters report Rnd 4. After a couple of fantastic wins on the road it was great to be back at the Dome. We hosted Melbourne, tricky conditions but it was good the heavens didn’t open. Once again some very welcomed key position inclusions in the side. We were rev’d up. I personally believe we may
Round 4 vs Melbourne In the afterglow of the Royal Wedding and as Harry and Meagan snuggled up with the corgis… across the other side of the world the Raiders were primed to take on Melbourne at home at the Dome. As English royalty slept, our football royalty donned the ceremonial Raider jumper and as
Supers vs Bayside After great performance in round 2 it was up to Highett to take on Bayside after they recorded a 15 goal win over Waverley the week before, so their confidence would have been sky high. Although we were coming off a 10 goal win over Dingley 2 weeks ago , with no
Masters report, Round 3, After a great win against last years grand finalist (Dingley at Dingley) in Rnd 2, the challenge was just as big heading to Bayside’s house who were undefeated and sitting on top of the ladder.

Round 3 As we headed north along the great Nepean, you could perhaps smell the cappuccinos, and taste the smashed avocado whilst embracing the aroma of a intrigingly perfumed yummy mummy as she ever so elegantly pilots the white Range Rover loaded to the gills with junior footballers all called Tristan, Forest and Charlotte-Tiffany-Anne into
Supers vs Dingley Wowee ! Round two up at the Dingley den saw the Supers bounce back after the dissapointment of round 1, to record a resounding victory by over 10 goals. In total contrast to round 1 where we just couldn’t get any flow or momentum going, everyone played their role and we clicked
Masters report. Our 1st away trip to Dingley (last years grand finalist) was always going to be a challenging prospect. We had a list change of 6 players from round 1 with some very welcomed additions, we had to get the mood right and ensure we got off to a good start as we did
It was the best of games, it was the worst of games, it was the age of umpires, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of the Dynsey, it was the epoch of the Gooch, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the game
Legends Match report. Kicking the dew off the ground for Round 1, the Legends were keen to start the season off with a win and get some rust out of our games. One of those was accomplished with a strong win against Mordialloc but I reckon there might be a little rust still to work
Match report. Masters Vs Mordialloc., Finally Footys Back! No better way to start the season (after a great pre season) hosting mordy at the dome. With the influx of some great news players to the club we had a great side to start the season, the mood was upbeat and that transferred onto the field.
Supers vs Mordialloc Round one saw 8 new players run out in the raiders Supers side which was exciting and great for the club . The Supers did battle with last years grand finalists Mordialloc, in a really dour low scoring physical contest . The game never really broken open throughout the 4 quarters, every

Legends. The last hurrah. Last game of the season and a time to reflect. A good healthy win and never really troubled all day giving us an 8 from 10 season and so many things to deflect on. Like why would Napoleon attack Russia in winter? Why did Hitler do the same? Do these idiots
Masters v Mordialloc Although we went into this game knowing it was a dead rubber a better more rounded exhibition would’ve been encouraging. A lack lustre performance with all players just going through the motions isn’t what we are about. I’m not sure whether we were thinking about saving our bodies for next week or

Masters V Dingley Second last round of the home and away season and the last home game. The scene was definitely set for a top of the table return bout with a fired up Dingley. The ground recovered and held up well after the mid week deluge and the weather was perfect for football. The
As Mark Twain once said, “reports of my death are greatly exaggerated” and so it was with the legends 2017 season.

Raiders V Carrum A dry and windy afternoon set the scene for the masters to regain that winning feeling. We needed to get back to basics and find our game plan mojo. It was a game that saw the majority of the scoring at one end of the ground and both sides made the most
Legends Round 7 There’s a lot of things that disappoint in life. Those conveyor belt toasters they have in hotels for example. You put your bread in and stand guard ready to kill anyone who wants to steal your toast, only for the bread to emerge from it’s little trip through hell, as, well, warm
The weather was fine, we were at the dome and the stage was set for an epic battle. The Masters didn’t pull any punches on their way to a disappointing loss but everyone contributed to the best of their ability. We followed the team rules and played up to most expectations. Our ball movement up
Ladies Day at the Raiderdome and the legends certainly turned it on for the girls. The prospect of 85 intoxicated women up in the clubrooms salivating over what surely was a veritable showroom of performance cars on the field. In fact the whole legends team is a cross between a luxury car show and carpark.
Raiders V Dingley It was a game we needed to win but one that got away. We travelled to The Dingoes Den with high expectations as our recent form suggested this game was definitely winnable. A slow start hurt us and unfortunately when you’re playing quality sides you can’t afford to let them jump you.
There’s a theory out there… of a parallel world, a duplicate of Earth on the other side of the sun. Its exactly our like our Earth except that everything is opposite. A doppelgänger planet. If your were left handed here, then your right handed there. An Earth where politicians were honest, teachers respected, kids did
Mordialloc was always going to be a real test for us and for two and a half quarters it was a tight and hard fought battle. Our superior fitness and desire to win the ball assisted us to break the game open late in the third quarter and consolidate in the last to build a
Raiders Legends Commemorative day for 15 Young Men Lost. Footy is played for fun so they say. It’s a little more serious when you’re injured, more so when its serious, and tragic when its worse. 125 years ago 15 footballers from Mornington met a tragic end to a fun day. A story untold for so
Raiders v Carrum A winning feeling is a good feeling and we continue to gain confidence in our game style and the way we approach the opposition each fortnight. Our Skill level, unselfish play and the way we attack the contest are coming together very nicely. A gutsy performance was asked for and was delivered.
Round 3 and its off to Parkdale to face the Vultures. Raider legends were 2 from 2 and looking to bring home the chocolates. Now there are people out there that think that gentlemen over 50 playing football in the rain on a Sunday morning is stupid. Well every bloke I see pull on a

Round 3 and the Raiders are back on the road. Legends head to Parkdale and the Supers & Masters will be down the road at Carrum.
Our first home game for season 2017 saw a successful Raiderdome Defence. Bayside are a very good team and it was an arm wrestle from from the start of the game to the final siren. We had the inclusion of some new players to the club as well as some Legends and they all contributed
To some, the Raiderdome is a pleasant verdant field where gentlemen play ball sports, children laugh, whilst birds, fairies and elves whistle and frollic. But to the Bayside Saints it’s a seething pit of wretched defeat and misery, where the bones of visiting teams are feasted upon by the marauding Raiders in a way not
Sunday 23rd April sees the Raiders play their first home game of the year returning back to the Raiderdome at Alexandra Park, Main St Mornington to face old rivals Bayside Saints. Legends kick off at 11am, Masters at 12.45pm and the Supers at 2.45pm. All three teams will be playing and will be a

The Legends had a great day today, didn’t have to travel too far, no one got hurt as far as I can tell. Our best player did us proud in the Masters and as usual everyone chipped in to make it a lot of fun. Very proud of smithy and his Masters boys, we were
R7 – R8 Masters match reports Round 7 – saw us take on top of the table Parkdale at Parkdale.

A triple header against Bayside Saints at their home fortress. Last game for the year. One chance at redemption. There is no greater challenge in football. Scott had the Antarctic, Luke had Darth, Coyotte had Roadrunner, Bill had Malcolm… we had Bayside Saints. Pressure was on. This would be hard. Harder than Everest. Harder than
Grant “Charlie” Barran has kicked his 100th Raider goal in just 38 Games. He achieved the feat in a blustery conditions against Parkdale in the round 7 game. He is just the 5th Raider to do so. Check out the video below.
That’s one win in a row for the Legends now. We travelled up to play South Yorella this morning. The track was more like a south Gippsland cow paddock. We should never forget how good we’ve got at the Raiderdome. After the typically gibberish pre game preamble we took to the field with a new
After some soul searching, self analysis and quiet contemplation I’m ready for our next game. We have had two bad games in what I would call a ‘mini’ mid season form slump. Given the talent we had out of our regular line up Sunday started well and our first half was promising. Team structure, player
It was cold. Cold and wet. Fine in a heat wave, no good in Bundoora playing footy at 10.00am. The raiders legends having been denied a win all season, were up against some stiff competition, with Northern Districts also winless at the halfway mark of the season. After an inspiring pre match address by coach
Football is a game of highs and lows and unfortunately on Sunday we couldn’t of sunk any lower. We travelled to Cranbourne to take on a side that had only lost to sides above them on the ladder and although we had key players out and a bit of the man flu going round, we

The Legends were magnificent in their magnificence today. We played the ladder leaders Williamstown, who had literally beaten their first three opponents by 15 goals or more. The loss will be recorded in history but that won’t tell the story. We finished the game tackling harder then we started it. The backline bolstered by Leo
A word from the coach. With some key players missing from the Masters team this week we needed to experiment a little with structure and positioning.

There is much debate among historians about what drove the Viking expansion. One widely held idea is that it was a quest for retaliation against continental Europeans for their previous invasions of Viking homelands, such as Charlemagne’s campaign to force Scandinavian pagans to convert to Christianity by killing any who refused to become baptized.
