  • Reconciliation Action Plan
    RECONCILIATION ACTION PLAN June 2018 - June 2020 OUR VISION AFL Victoria’s vision is one of a united Australia, free of institutional racism that values and recognises Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures. Our sport acknowledges and respects our strong Aboriginal origins and we are deeply committed to further building our relationships with First Australians throughout Victoria and providing an environment that welcomes and provides opportunities for and with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The Victorian Kickstart jumper was redesigned from the previous jumper to more appropriately represent Victoria. The Big V is iconic on Victorian state jumpers, therefore the ‘Big V ’on the Kickstart jumper was important. Boomerangs have been included to represent Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Cultures. Reaching from the AFL Victoria logo is a path going down to the meeting place and then another path up to the Nationals and the Flying Boomerangs. The Possum was identified as a Victorian animal, which is why the possum footprints were chosen to represent the path. At the bottom of the jumpers is a symbol representing a meeting place where all of the boys come together and unite as one and represent the Victorian Kickstart teams. We acknowledge Todd Garner for the jumper design. We also thank all photographers for providing the photos. AFL Victoria also acknowledge the RAP Committee for their time, commitment and contributions to this RAP. 2 A MESSAGE FROM OUR CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER AFL Victoria is proud to launch its inaugural Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP). We have a vision to make our game the most accessible in Victoria and this is another step forward to achieving this.

  • Four-Way Tie in Morrish Medal
    FOUR-WAY TIE IN MORRISH MEDAL ONE week after the Peter Jackson VFL’s J.J. Liston Trophy celebrated three winners, the Morrish Medal topped it with an historic four-way dead-heat in the TAC Cup’s highest individual honor. Bendigo Pioneers Jacob Chisari, Eastern Ranges’ Ben Cavarra, Geelong Falcons’ George Cameron and Gippsland Power’s Josh Scott provided the first quadruple tie in the Morrish history. Only twice before – 2008 when the Power’s Jarryd Blair and Murray Bushranger Fabian Priest dead-heated and again two years later when Gippsland’s Dyson Heppell and Sandringham Dragon’s Jackson Sketcher couldn’t be separated – has the Morrish Medal posted multiple winners. But, never before has the TAC Cup toasted four players as Morrish winners. In a thrilling finale to the vote count, Cameron moved to 16 votes after 11 rounds, and set what would be the winning total for the rest of the competition to chase. Cavarra made his move with a best-on-ground game against Murray in Round 15, but at the end of the next Round the landscape changed dramatically. With Chisari adding his sixth two vote game and Scott collecting two votes, Cameron for the first time since Round 11 wasn’t alone in first place. Significantly, Chisari and Scott did not play in the final game. Chisari played for Bendigo Gold in the VFL while Scott didn’t play that weekend, which left Cameron the chance to break the deadlock. But, Cameron didn’t attract the umpires attention in Geelong’s 41-point win against Dandenong.
