Congratulations to VAFA Premier B – Division 4 Rep side skipper Leigh Fletcher from Hampton Rovers who will lead the side in their match against AFL Victoria Country No. 2 team on Saturday at St Albans Reserve in Geelong.
The Vice Captains are two Big V veterans in David Boundy (Old Paradians) and Ben Phibbs (Mazenod).
The squad of 22 features players from 16 clubs from Premier B- Division 3, with Mazenod and Old Haileybury both containing the most representation with three players each.
The Premier B – Division 4 side will again be led by senior coach Brett Voss who told VAFA TV that he was far better prepared for the match this year compared to last year where he only took on the role at late notice.
“I do feel more prepared, we have put a big emphasis on squad selection and we have a really strong squad across the board” said Voss.
Last year’s one point loss was the closest the VAFA Premier B – Division 4 side had ever got to the Country No 2 team and the hopes are they can get a first win on Saturday.
Congratulations also to the umpires from the VAFA who have been appointed for the game. Russell Davidson has been appointed to his 12th representative match and will be one of the field umpires this Saturday. Liam Van Essen & Ben Rickard will be boundary umpiring in their first senior representative match. Clayton Evans who has goal umpired at VFL level will be officiating in his 6th VAFA representative match.
The game will commence at 1.45pm at St Albans Reserve in Geelong, immediately following the match between the VAFA U19s and the AFL Vic Country U19s.
