around 37, Played his 300th a few weeks back.
Concerning thing for Bayswater is that he has been in their top handful of players this season.

Unbelievable family contribution to the club.
I saw Joel play about 12 years and he looked fat and slow then, I assume he is just one of those players who never had speed so doesn’t rely on it, and thus age doesn’t impact him as much.

Joel was 16 in Bayswaters 2005 premiership. Great effort to still be playing seniors while having your 20 year reunion going.

Over 700 seniors games of footy between the 3 of them. Amazing servants. But unfortunately for Bayswater there junior program has struggled with the demographic of area the last 10 years and I think it’s all starting to catch up to the senior club.
It’s starting to catch up with a lot of clubs. As well as normal operations got to keep an eye on the future

I can assure you Cliff is right,there is a Joel Garner that plays football but he is confused with Joel Galvin one of the legends of Bayswater F C.

Catching up (and caught up) with many clubs who are really struggling.It’s starting to catch up with a lot of clubs. As well as normal operations got to keep an eye on the future
What then happens is clubs then 'raid' junior ranks of those clubs who work hard on their junior structure.
It is just swings and roundabouts now with clubs taking form others just to have sufficient player numbers and therefore survive.
Changing demographics are having a significant impact on many clubs in certain areas. This is seen in the Doncaster area, East Burwood and now Wantirna South.

I think some clubs end up building a not bad relationship though when the merge under 19 teams in the lower divison!! Like if a premier clubs has a 19s in premier then a Div 3/4 option that merge with another team it’s a good pathways for those kids to continuing playing footy as realistically if you’re not playing in the first grade under 19 team you are no chance to play seniors there so better off going to a lower divison.

The Education Dept has all the population data and can tell you the predicted school population for the next 20 years with surprising accuracy. You need to get someone from your club who works in a school to get the numbers as I suspect that you would need programs provided by the Education Dept to read and interpret the data. The population is like a wave, with a trough and a peak and is slow moving. People move into an area and have kids. The kids eventually move out and it might be another 40 years before their parents move or die, allowing a new couple in, to have their kids. Rowville, just over and Lysterfield are near the peak and Whitehorse is just starting to rise again.It’s starting to catch up with a lot of clubs.

Went and watched Donvale vs Scoresby who are probably the 2 best sides in the division.
Thought Donvale won alot of the hit outs but reckon Scoresby had the better of the midfield battle. Camaleri for Scoresby was the best mid on the ground. Donvale without Haig, Rausa and Day in the engine room definitely weakens them but though Zalac and Wignell fought hard.
Donvales outside run was a massive. They had alot of speed and really chopped through Scoresby
Amin is a star. I think Pell will get the job next time if he plays
Duncan could've kicked 12. I think he kicked 8.5 and missed a few sodas.
Although Scoresby never gave in, when the whips were cracking Donvale had another gear.

My info Uftg v Coldy
The final 1/4 was the highest scoring of the game so if it was called off early, it couldn’t have been too early!
