VAFA Podcast – OM’s win the fight for survival + William Buck Premier Finals preview

By Joe Pignataro · September 5, 2023
VAFA Podcast – OM’s win the fight for survival + William Buck Premier Finals preview

In the lead up to the 2023 VAFA Finals, the only place for all the news and views is on the VAFA’s For the Love of the Game podcast.

The Old Melburnians have won the battle to remain in William Buck Premier, finishing the season in eighth spot only 1.62% of Old Haileybury.

The closest finish to a home and away season in over a decade. OM’s coach and VAFA media favourite, Paul Satterley joins Joey and Josh to discuss the rollercoaster of emotions from the final home and away game, plus how the year has played out for OM’s.

On the agenda with Joey Pignataro and Josh Heriot this week:

  • We are down to the final four in William Buck Premier
  • How did the Old Melburnians orchestrate enough of a margin to close the percentage gap?
  • The one question mark that’s hovering over the heads of St Bernard’s
  • Old Camberwell are a win away from being part of Premier B in 2024
  • What’s the ceiling for Aaron Cloke of Oakleigh?
  • Preview of the Division Preliminary Final weekend

Joey is putting together a pitch for a sideshow event on William Buck Premier Men’s Grand Final day that has to be heard to be believed. Plus the world famous tips are back in business, and a whole lot more.

Subscribe to For the Love of the Game wherever you listen to podcasts, and you’ll never miss a moment of the action, and for the first time in 2023, you can also listen to VAFA Podcasts via the popular FootyLive App.
