Speak to your Toyota Dealer and put one to the test today. SEARCH ‘KLUGER ’ Photo: Cameron Grimes Representative opportunities arise This weekend we celebrate community football with the annual WorkSafe AFL Victoria Community Championships. A host of players will represent their respective leagues in 15 matches across Victoria on Saturday, with the feature game the battle for the No.1 spot in the league rankings between Geelong FNL and Mornington Peninsula Nepean FNL at the MCG. Looking through the long list of players representing each region, there are many recognisable names to TAC Cup and Peter Jackson VFL fans, with players starting or finishing their careers at local level. While the TAC Cup competition continues to provide over 50 per cent of new talent to the AFL level, we should never forget that each year 80 per cent of players exiting our program return to local leagues across the state (46 per cent) or move on to the VFL (34 per cent). Pleasingly, 37 per cent of players return to their original club, and we hope they have been able to develop their skills not only on the field but off the field and take their learnings back to their local competitions. Good luck to all teams competing this weekend, showcasing the talent at local level. Talking about representative football, the Peter Jackson VFL state squad was announced last week, with over 50 players named as part of the initial squad and a new development list. More players than ever before will be given the opportunity to experience the state-league team training program, which will begin on Wednesday night aft er the squad is reduced to 30 at the completion of Round 5 in the VFL. With only two games of VFL on the weekend of May 27, ensure that you get along and support the VFL team, whichever side you support. Let’s ensure the WAFL experiences the passion Victorian football followers have for the Big V jumper and pack the ground at North Port Oval. It will be a great opportunity to see the VFL return to the winners list and showcase the depth of talent in our competition.

    VFL Round 5 TAC Cup Round 6 7 - 8 May 2016 $3.00 Photo: Brian Bartlett Exciting time in women’s football The future is bright in women’s football and full of opportunities. Over the last week the next generation of female footballers have taken to the field in the annual Youth Girls National Championships. The Grand Final was played Friday night as a curtain- raiser to the Richmond vs Hawthorn AFL game at the MCG, and fingers crossed we saw a Victorian team holding aloft the Championship trophy at the end of the game. Whatever the result though, in a few years’ time names like Katherine Smith, Izzy Huntington, Georgina Walker and Lily Mithen are likely to be names we hear called on a regular basis at venues like the MCG in the national women’s league. Anticipation has been at fever pitch over recent weeks with AFL clubs confirming their intentions to apply for a licence, with an AFL women’s competition set to kick off in early 2017. Submissions closed at the end of April and it was pleasing to see the coverage given to the host of applications in the lead-up to the deadline. Victoria will field the most teams of any state, which will be just reward for those local players that are draft ed to the yet-to-be-determined teams in our state. While they wait, it is the fans that get to enjoy these players week in, week out in our VFL Women’s and VWFL competitions before they become household names across Australia.

    TAC Cup Round 2 2 & 3 April 2016 $3.00 Season 2016 kicking into gear Wasn’t it great to have football back last weekend, both at AFL and TAC Cup level? While the next crop of future AFL talent was taking to the field in TAC Cup games throughout Victoria last weekend, it was a highlight of the Easter weekend to see eight draft ees debut in Round 1 of the AFL season – including 2015 Morrish Medal winner Clayton Oliver who claimed the first NAB AFL Rising Star nomination of the season aft er his 22-disposal debut for Melbourne. While the TAC Cup season started last weekend for the best U18 male talent across Victoria, last Monday saw the conclusion of a very successful Youth Girls Academy Challenge for the most promising U18 females across the state. Congratulations to the Dandenong Stingrays, who defeated the Sandringham Dragons in the finale to the month-long tournament. It is pleasing to see TAC support not only the next crop of elite U18 boys but also what will be the next crop of future female AFL footballers via the U18 Youth Girl Academies across eight regions. During the week we celebrated the launch of the Peter Jackson VFL and new VFL Women’s competition. With the launch of a national AFL women’s competition in 2017, it is exciting for AFL Victoria to launch the first VFL Women’s season this weekend. Also at the launch we looked back at the history of the TAC Cup competition, with last week signalling the beginning of its 25th season.

    St.Paul's McKinnon JFC Newsletter From the Secretary June 28 2018 What a brilliant weekend for footy, with AFL footy visits, photos & celebrations. Auskick Our Auskickers were brilliant to kick off the weekend. With more than 120 kids for Grandparents and Special Friends Day, the boys and girls had a ball playing against their special person/s that came to help each of the coaches teach some of the fundamentals for our next generation of Demons. Michelle and the team are fantastic giving guidance on how to play and giving each of the kids a game at the end of the session. It is a sight to see the kids and the parents all get behind the song and give our song the gusto to set the weekend of sport. Seniors Saturday morning and the thirds were on fire to kick off our seniors footy with 11.15-81 against Endeavour Hills 6.5-41. The Reserves then backed up the day with a very good game of fast, dramatic footy kicking 20.11-131 to Chelsea Heights 6.5-41. The Reserves lead the Div 1 Reserves Ladder leading into this week’s home game (McKinnon Reserve) on Saturday at Midday against Bentleigh.

  • AFL Vic Record Week 4.Indd
    VFL Round 1 14 - 17 April 2017 $3.00 Photo: Cameron Grimes New VFL season begins Welcome to season 2017 in the Peter Jackson VFL. Plenty has happened since last September when Footscray was crowned premier. We have seen 13 VFL players provided with an AFL opportunity, selected in the 2016 NAB AFL national and rookie draft s. Casey and Geelong both produced three draft ees, with Coburg, Footscray and North Ballarat providing two draft ees each. The pleasing aspect has been seeing the likes of Tom Stewart, Mitch Hannan, Robbie Fox and Tim Smith debut in the early rounds of the AFL season. The competition this year will feature 14 clubs, with Frankston not provided a VFL licence for the 2017 season. The club has had a rich history of providing a pathway and opportunities for footballers in the region – none more evident than the debut for Sydney in recent weeks of 2014 Fothergill-Round Medal winner Nic Newman. However, it was decided at the end of last year that without the necessary off -field structures in place, AFL Victoria was not confident financial projections provided by the club could be met. We have a strong willingness to ensure there is a VFL presence in the region into the future, but it must be viable and sustainable both on and off the field in the long term. This has been highlighted in the regular communication AFL Victoria has had with the new board at the club. In other pre-season news, at the VFL Season Launch last week we revealed there will be a triple-header of matches for the 2017 Victorian state league Grand Final day at Etihad Stadium on Sunday September 24.
