For the Love of the Game’s Week 16, 2026 in Review

Jason Bennett, Matty Donald & Brayden May are back to dissect an incredible weekend of VAFA action that saw two Premier draws, a host of other thrillers, and maybe the largest upset in any section all season!

The boys run through EVERY senior men’s & women’s section as always, and catch up with:

• AJAX young gun & VAFA Rising Star nominee JETHRO GUNN, as his team prepares for their mad dash at the Premier B Men’s finals;

• Former Adelaide Crow & current coach of De La Salle’s Holmesglen Under 19 Premier team, ANDY OTTEN, as his team gets ready for this Saturday’s blockbuster against Old Scotch, live & exclusive on KTV;

• Port Melbourne Chargers leader SUNDAY STONEY, as her team gets ready for the biggest challenge in Premier B Women’s footy this season – the unbeaten Beaumaris, live & free on VAFA TV this Saturday.

Plus, our usual gift basket of assorted favourites:

• ‘CENCH FOOTY’ Dylan Humphries brings us his regular segment of interesting tidbits & shoutouts from around the VAFA – CENCH WATCH;

• Our resident Holmesglen Under 19 Premier reporter LACHIE MOIR joins us with his weekly wrap;

• BIG BAGS – thanks to Sherrin: 3 double-figure goal hauls over the weekend!

• TON WATCH – it’s tight at the top, with just a few goals separating our leaders, who are into the 60’s… Is a ton still on the cards?

• TIPS – Matty was doing so well in recent weeks that he may have got ahead of himself… However, Lachie is gaining on Cenchy as the U19 Premier tipping battle starts to heat up.

All that, and plenty more to enjoy FOR THE LOVE OF THE GAME!
