Big V Weekend is here!
Representative football weekend is upon us, starting with Thursday’s Big V Gala Dinner, then Saturday’s two massive matches against PFL at VAFA HQ and finishing with Sunday’s matches at Bendigo.
The VAFA’s 20-player women’s squad has been finalised ahead of Saturday’s international rules exhibition match against Victoria GAA.
19 individual clubs will be represented on the day with St Mary’s Salesian the only team that has two players, Alice Angley and Joelly Firmin.
Seven of this year’s William Buck Premier teams boast representatives; including, Alex Hynes (SKOB), Natalie Gills (Marcellin), Sarah Kenny (West Brunswick), Emma Delaney (Fitzroy-ACU), Jade Tancred (MUWFC), Michaela Harding (Kew – pictured) and the Saints duo.
Two-time grand final BOG winner, Penny Brown (Hawthorn AFC), will be roaming the midfield alongside fellow Big V star Sasha Long (Beaumaris) and 2018 Division 1 leading goal kicker, Eliza Cooper (SBMT). See the full team below.
The women’s game kicks off at 2pm at Elsternwick Park and will be followed by the men’s match at 4pm. For more information on this Saturday’s Ireland comes to Bayside festivities, click HERE
