We are pleased to announce that Vincent Zagari has re-signed for the 2024 season.
Our 2023 Zeal Player of the Year, Zagari is an asset to the Zebras side both on and off the field.
Since signing with the club in 2021, he has become a strong leader and cornerstone who is ‘respected by his peers’ in the words of Head Coach Jake Batchelor.
“[He’s] a gut running wing who connects our back and front half well,” said Batchelor.
“He is a strong leader for us.”
An integral link-up player, Zagari averaged 14.3 disposals and 9.1 kicks per game in 2023. Often finding himself amongst our tackle leaders, he stood out in round four where he laid nine tackles against Frankston.
“I like to model my game around Isaac Smith but I also love the work of Dion Prestia,” said Zagari.
He is an avid communicator on-field and the value he brings to the group is evident for anyone who watches the Zebras play.
Always relentless in his pursuit, Zagari continues to grow as a player and leader and we can’t wait to see what he can achieve in 2024.
