Thank you indeed. What a sensational day. The noise that the crowd made in the last quarter at the 'Footsrcay' end was truly amazing. We need to hear a bit more of that passion more often!

If it's anything like the ear piercing squeals coming from the lady who was sitting behind me on Sunday, no thanks. Just about lost both eardrums. A Footscray chant will do me fine.
I'm glad you were part of the excitement. You were blessed to be privy to Footscray hysteria.

Got this email today about what the Footscray team and the two games I took my grand parents to being the pre-lim & GF and what it meant to my grandparents who are 80+, and made me smile so I thought I'd share it:
Hello BT,
Do you know that you have made Nan and Pop very happy?
After the first game you took them to, Mum rang me and said it was one of the happiest days of her life!
Not only did she meet some Bulldog players, - her and Pop spent the day with you.
She was over the moon. Dad was pretty pleased too, but you know what men are like, they don’t say much!
They both thoroughly enjoyed Sunday too, and are looking forward to being able to drive up to visit you and Mrs BT
Plus we WON!!
Love, Aunt of BT
