  • Former AFL champion JOSH KENNEDY after his incredible VAFA debut for Old Xavs.
  • Old Trinity coach DONALD McDONALD after his team’s win over league-leaders Old Ivanhoe.
  • Wattle Park’s new 300-gamer LAWRENCE VIRGO after his stellar personal-best 6-goal haul in his milestone game.
  • VAFA News Corp newshound BRAYDEN MAY with his weekly Divisional Wrap – who’s making news up & down the Men’s Divisions?

Plus, our wrap of the VAFA’s Women’s Premier competitions & regular segments:

  • TON WATCH & BIG BAGS, thanks to Sherrin – Which 3 players booted double-figure goals this week?
  • WORLD FAMOUS TIPS – Who wins in what promises to be a fantastic Week 10 of action?
