Home of the Central Blues Australian Football Club

It was a controversial Round 5 for the Central Blues as their Div 1s and Div 2s split the honours as the Div 2s lost under some extenuating circumstances (more on this later). For the Div 1s - their form has continued to improve since their loss to the Eagles, with another strong showing against a 2010 top5 side in the Toronto Dingos.

In the OAFL's first ever Hammer Double-Header, the Blues faced off against rivals Guelph Gargoyles - following the Wildcats V Eagles game (which for the record saw the Eagles remain undefeated after 4 rounds in 2010, with the Premiership favourites holding on for a W in a close game over the hometown favourites). This game was also Adam "Hollywood" Martin's 50th game in Blues colours - so the club was pumped to give the speedy midfielder a milestone game to remember after the let down experienced last week against the the Eagles in Chap's career 50th. Unfortunately due to injuries the Blues went into this game with a few big outs as Canadian Daniel "D-Train" Zimmerman and Aussies Jason Cain and Leon McConville-Brain all unavailable for selection. 

For the first time this year the Blues hit the road for the shortish trip to the Uinversity of Toronto Scarborough Campus (UTSC) for a top of the table clash against the Toronto Eagles.  With both teams undefeated after the first two rounds this game was a true opportunity for either team to put their hand up as deserved 2010 premiership favorites.  Despite having never defeated the powerhouse Eagles club, the Blues were confident of notching up the important 4 points and testing their 2010 squad against the league benchmarks.  Adding a little bit of spice the encounter, Blues favorite, Rob ‘Chaps’ Chapman was playing in his 50th OAFL game (45th as a Blue following 5 with Geulph).
