Side by side with dad
My favourite moment in 43 years of being a Collingwood supporter would have to be the 2023 Grand Final win where I spent that special day side by side with my 80 year old dad. We were almost in the same seats back in 2018 where we cried together but this time we share tears of joy. To be able to spend that special moment together will go down as my favourite sporting moment ever. Collingwood Football Club built so many beautiful memories that will live with my family for generations to come.

Watching from Bangkok
2023, September 30th. My wife joined the Pies for the 1st year and we watched us win the flag at Bangkok with the Australian Chamber and 300+ other Aussies. Great day. We watch every game here in Thailand as international Members on Watch AFL. She has become a huge footy fan. Looking forward to getting back to the 'G and watch a game live.

Our first Anzac Day clash
The 100th anniversary of the Anzacs. My brother and I both with defence force service, purchase tickets to our first AFL game together. We get seats on the fence, on the 50m line. The rain started and dispersed the less passionate but my brother and I arm in arm as the national anthem silences the stadium. The silence ends with the siren and the roar of the crowd shakes the stands, 95,000 people joined in applause and cheering for our countries anthem. The game starts, 3 minutes in, the ball comes to Jamie Elliot, he's chasing the ball, running along the boundary. My brother and I standing in our Anzac Day jerseys hanging on the fence, Elliot gets the ball, bombers defenders in hot pursuit, he steps out, lines up the sticks and kicks a miracle goal over the boundary line 50m out, 2m from where we are standing, screaming! What a way to kick off our first Anzac Day clash, first AFL game together and what was to us and many other veterans a day of mass celebration! I'll never forget the roar of the crowd on that moment!
