The Eighth Wonder of the World – For the Love of the Game’s Round 8 Review

By VAFA Media · June 4, 2025
The Eighth Wonder of the World – For the Love of the Game’s Round 8 Review

Jason Bennett, Paddy Grindlay & VAFA Media analyst Pat Cortazzo strap on their scuba tanks to take a deep dive into Round 8 of action & catch up with:

  • Uni Blacks veteran JOEL ERNEST after his game-winning goal to cap one of the VAFA’s comebacks of the year;
  • Old Scotch spearhead JAMES TARRANT after he booted 5 goals in the final term to see the Cardinals home in an incredible come-from-behind win;
  • Williamstown CYMS men’s coach CON TERZOGLOU after a fantastic weekend for his club that saw both their Senior Men & Senior Women post memorable victories.
  • Pat – who has worked as a footy analyst at Carlton & Hawthorn – casts his eye over EVERY Premier Men’s team from an analytical perspective:
  • Where are they strong & where do they have room for improvement?
  • Which areas of the game should the coaches be contemplating over the bye?

Plus all the usual goodness:-

  • TON WATCH & BIG BAGS, thanks to Sherrin – 3 players booted double-figure snags over the weekend & who leads the VAFA’s goalkicking leaderboard?
  • WORLD FAMOUS TIPS – how did the boys go in Round 8 & who are they on for Round 9?

There’s so much to enjoy FOR THE LOVE OF THE GAME, thanks to MECWACARE!
