I'm personally a big fan of Vicki and her playing style/ QB approach. With the calm and composure to throw those bullets down the field with pin point accuracy.

We take a whistle stop tour through Vicki's playing career - from starting at WR at Uni to the lows of an ACL injury to the comeback of the century.

As always i wish Vicky nothing but the greatest success in finals and with the GB game coming up.
