Well said Gia 🙌🏻 It is always a difficult challenge the balance between individual development as well as AFL needs. There are a lot of compromises, but winning habits are one of the best forms of development. Great photo @tommorris32 Go Tigers.

@tommorris32 @FOXFOOTY Couldn’t disagree more with Craig Jennings. Some of the best teams over the last 20 years in the AFL (Geelong, Hawthorn and Richmond) have had extremely strong VFL teams and created a winning culture at all levels. VFL form and result always discussed thoroughly
