After a strong pre-season consisting of four matches, Werribee is officially kicking off their 2024 Smithy’s VFL campaign with a trip down the highway to GMHBA Stadium this Saturday. 

Werribee will face Geelong, just two weeks after playing them in The Big W’s third practice in the lead up to the season at Deakin University, where Werribee came out victorious as three goal winners.

Jimmy Allan, and the new coaching team are set to officially kick off their VFL tenure, with first-year assistant coach Matt Dowling expressing; “This week you’ll see a number of returning players, a few new recruits coming into the side, and we’re really optimistic about how well we’re going to go once again this year.”
