It has been another very successful off-season for our VAFA alumni, with a number of additions and promotions within the VFL system!

Jackson Gillespie, Hamish McCartney, Luke Myatt and Joe Dorrat Thorpe have all successfully joined their development squads.

This year we also have three promotions to the VFL Senior lists – Josh Ball (Field), Adrian Pretorius (Boundary) and Jack Stammers (Goal).

Josh and Jack join their respective Senior lists in just their second year at the VFL, and Adrian in his Third – absolutely outstanding achievements!
