On Second Thought – For the Love of the Game’s Round 2 Review

By VAFA Media · April 29, 2026
On Second Thought – For the Love of the Game’s Round 2 Review

Jason Bennett, Matthew Donald & Brayden May dissect a thrilling Round 2 of VAFA action, which saw upsets aplenty across the sections in both the men’s and women’s competitions.

The boys catch up with:

  • Old Trinity premiership coach DONALD McDONALD after his team’s massive upset of Old Xaverians at Toorak Park. How did the T’s pull THAT off & what does it mean for their broader campaign?
  • Fitzroy player & VAFA Media Premier B Women’s expert LAUREN ATKINSON, who tells us about the Roygirls’ promising start to the season in Premier Women’s, and shares her thoughts on the opening fortnight of Premier B Women’s.
  • VAFA Media’s Holmesglen Under 19 Premier reporter LACHIE MOIR fills us in on results and reactions from Round 2 and looks ahead to Round 3.

Plus, the usual assorted favourites:

  • BIG BAGS – 9 goals was the best return of Round 2. Who was it?
  • TON WATCH – Who leads the men’s and women’s comps in the race for the magical 100?
  • TIPS – Matty had a stinker in Round 2. He’s got some work to do if he’s to make up ground this coming weekend.

All that and more, FOR THE LOVE OF THE GAME – available as a VODCAST on the VAFAHQ YouTube channel and as a PODCAST on your favourite platforms!
