Hi all, I've had this written since Tuesday but has only been put up on the site now. So apologies for the delay.

Quote: | Sixteen years ago, my Mum took me to the ANZAC Day clash between Collingwood and Essendon. We sat in the very last row, on the top tier of the old Olympic stand. I got a nosebleed from the height. I was nine and was really beginning to fall in love with footy. Little did I realise that I was witnessing the beginning of one of footy’s greatest traditions. The game ended a draw and Collingwood and Essendon would go on to foster, grow and sustain an ANZAC day tradition which has now built into the greatest day on the AFL home-and-away calendar.
