Telegram from Tom Hafey
During my time in the Navy I served in Vietnam on two occasions and I keenly kept an eye on things back home. Navy life had me move all around Australia, it was in 1979/1980 that I was stationed in a very remote part of North Western Australia and I was coaching a local team in town. We were about to play in the Grand Final and unbeknownst to me the supporters had contacted Collingwood and explained I was Collingwood supporter and would Tom Hafey have any tips for me as coach. To my surprise I received a telegram from Tom wishing me all the best. We won the Grand Final it was amazing as team had never won before. I still have the Telegram today. I now have a 5yr old grandson who is Collingwood mad and is in his first year of Auskick here in Perth. In my eyes he is a champion as he tells everyone Collingwood is the best forget the rest.

It's about family
It's all about family. I can't think of one moment without my family being involved. Sitting at Vic Park as a child with my parents or attending now with my own children. Every memory of Collingwood is love, happiness, sometimes heartache.
