Farewell to Three Club Champions

It was an emotional end to yesterday's Preliminary Final against Old Haileybury. Although the result of the game didn't go our way, the loss was overshadowed at the end of the game by the realisation that three club champions had just played their final games for the club.

Matt Petering, Rob Cathcart and Scott Gower were chaired off the ground to cheers and applause from the Beauy supporters - it was an emotional moment.

The stats on the graphic say it all.

In a way it's the passing of an era - All three were selected to the 2002-2011 'Team of the Decade' and will certainly be part of the current decade's team.

It's never easy saying farewell, particularly when the contribution has been as significant as these three players.

It will certainly be a time for reflection at the 'Best & Fairest' awards in a week and half.

What can we say - other than Thank You!

Once a Shark, Always a Shark!
