The season has arrived . All games are live on AFL App and Kayo Sports games will be live on Fox Footy, Richmond vs Southport game at Frankston will be Free Entry.
VFL 2026 starts next weekend.
VFL tips starts in less than 2 weeks. In 2026 there will be one extra team bringing the comp to 22 teams. St Kilda and Sandringham will be both standalone after a split. Sandringham will be standalone status for the first time since 1999. Tasmania returns to the VFL after a 20-year break. The devils produced some great players in their few years in the VFL with the most notable being a young Jack Riewoldt. Footscray beat Southport to win the 2025 premiership.
I will send further reminder on Friday as well as Monday.
I've got kids sports Saturday morning, but hoping to catch the last quarter if possible. With the season drawing closer, the selected sides are reducing down closer to normal team selection.
In sad news for Port Melbourne, lifelong member Ken Drew died earlier this week aged 92. He was a but if a pioneer in the VFA, recording games to allow coaching staff to rewatch games to improve the professionalism of the club. He was a familiar face to many supporters and will be sadly missed.
I'm trying to decide what to say about the game, post-match.
Williamstown look good. Hard, fast and quite clean with the football.
Port Melbourne worked their way into the game but it could be a case of the Seagulls taking the foot off the gas as the game wore on.
I think the departure of AJ from the ruc9k was telling and we lacked that physical impact in the ruck.
I think this is the first time the clubs have played each other since 2000. When the two clubs played at the MCG. I remember a good contingent of Port Melbourne supporters getting along to the game too.
A few interesting positional changes in the line up announced by the Borough. Perhaps to try and address some key position deficiencies.
I won't be able to make this game so will be relying on the clubs social media updates.
