Inside The Boundary – Uncovering family ties at Monash & Old Carey

By Joe Pignataro · June 14, 2023
Inside The Boundary – Uncovering family ties at Monash & Old Carey

The VAFA Women’s Podcast takes you Inside the Boundary of the VAFA Women’s Competition.

Both Lucy Watkin and Sophie Welsh have headed over to the UK, chasing the European sun, watch the plethora of sport that’s on offer, and like everyone else – take photos of old buildings.

In their absence, Joe Pignataro has stepped into the hosting chair as the footy returns this weekend from the Kings Birthday bye weekend.

This weeks episode focuses on the rise of Monash Blues in Premier B Women’s. Senior coach Shane Chapman took over the coaching reins at the beginning of 2022, and the club has catapulted to the top of the table after eight weeks of the 2023 season. Tune in to hear how the club has transitioned and changed across the previous 12 months.

After a four year hiatus, Old Carey have returned to the VAFA Women’s in 2023. Ryan Dobson was the man who answered the Panthers call to coach the side, early on in the pre-season he went on a recruiting spree that saw his sister pull on the boots in the early part of the season.

Subscribe to Inside The Boundary through VAFA Media to never miss a moment, new episodes are released every Thursday.
