Victory Vikings

Also, what a banger to win.

Excuse me while I ”ELLLLLLLAAAAAAA”

Happy Beattie Goad Derby Day to all who celebrate.

Melbourne Victory U23 v Avondale FC
NPLW VIC
La Trobe
1 pm kickoff

Congratulations to Vikings alumni Alex Chidiac, Kyra Cooney-Cross, Courtney Nevin and Jamilla Rankin on making the squad.

Courtesy of @munkfc.bsky.social we now have Bunge t-shirts available. If you'd like one simply send us a,message with your t-shirt size.

As part of our #Kayla100 celebrations Kaylaroo came out of retirement and couldn't resist the opportunity to meet Mini. She also took the opportunity to explain her plan to get Bunge an international transfer to the Matildas so our defence at the 27 WC is Doran Bunge Morrison Beard.

Also, shout out to a certain gullible individual, for privacy sake let's call him Eric S... No that's too obvious. Let's say E Subijano, who thought the citizenship certificate was real.

It only took us 3 games to start singing "Morrison for Matildas" and Kayla was silly enough to tell us the date she became eligible for Australian citizenship. When the day finally arrived we took matters into our own hands and awarded her Australian Citizenship. Happy #Kayla100 day.

As part of our #Kayla100 celebrations, we're commemorating one of the greatest hat-tricks of all time. Rd 5 2022, Amy's Park. 19th minute a free header. 29th min gets on the end of a Beattie Goad free kick. 87th-minute goal-mouth scramble, hat-trick complete! Relive it here:

Ask any Victory fan the most iconic thing about Kayla and they'll inevitably reply "Space Buns". They definitely added to the early mystique around Kayla and have been sorely missed these past few seasons. Who knows, maybe they'll make a comeback on Sunday to celebrate #Kayla100

Today's #Kayla100 moment we're celebrating is the time Kayla met Kaylaroo. Kaylaroo first came to the dub when Kayla became #AussieKayla but became another one of our mascots ahead of Rd 1 last season. It's fair to say it was the beginning of a beautiful friendship.

We're kicking things off by throwing back to the time Kayla auditioned for the role of host of Landmine on the ABC.

Welcome to #Kayla100 week, a week dedicated to Kayla Morrison ahead of her becoming the club game's record holder and first player to play 100 dub games for Victory. Throughout the week we'll be sharing our favourite moments and stories from Kayla's career so far.

Also, today our beloved Captain Kayla will become the joint games record holder for the club, joining Amy Jackson on 99 games.

Happy Pride Match Day to all who celebrate. We have some free temporary tattoos and face paint available so come on over and say hi. Gates are due to open at 6 pm. If you're not travelling to Shepperton head to the W Club to watch the game.

In a move that was entirely predictable the moment the decision to move the location of the game was made, due to extreme heat the KO time for Saturday has been pushed back to 7.30 pm when the temperature will be a positively freezing 35 degrees.

We can do other Leagues and National teams as well Please also freely pass on our names if you know someone who would like a kit done. We can also do pride names and numbers. Yours in Amy.

We have on multiple occasions been asked by players from other clubs to assist with kits for families so we've decided to make a proper announcement. Likewise, if you're a dub fan wanting a kit done but your club doesn't offer it then please reach out.

This is a Public Service Announcement - Vikings kit personalisation service is now available. If you're a player in the dub and you want kits done for yourself or your loved ones, but your club won't do it then please reach out to us.
