What a fantastic result!!!
For 7 years since Kim and David Hooper started our team, everyone has worked towards continually improving their skills so that we could reach this day.
One of the best parts of the day was that every player contributed all game, but they also had their own little purple patch. From the first few minutes when Anthony Brown had 3 or 4 charges out of defence, to Robbie E's great 3rd quarter, Wade in the ruck and the bottom of the packs, Shannon's tackling, Frances breaking away from his opponents, General Luke drifting a kick behind the play, Andy marking safely in the last line, Kingsley charging at goals, Gary Phelps and his blind-turns out of packs, The Penguin controlling the ball on a string, Keith charging away, Mark knocking the ball on, Heath always dangerous, Chris E coming back on after a heavy knock, Peter and Ryan strong in packs, Tony, Veronica and Emeil all contributing their best, Luke W straight at the ball on every occasion, right through to the last bell, the complete team was tuned into performing to their best.
We have finally achieved one of our greatest dreams!. We will enjoy it even more over the next few days as it sinks in, and we think over what every person has contributed and the highlights of the game, and the excitement of the day.
My thanks to all the players or the memories, and to the great input given by the coaching crew of Anthony Brown Snr., Jammo and Bill, and to our supporters , especially David and Clare McRae, Jack and Finlay for jumper care and drink-carrying.
My respect and admiration to everyone involved in this tremendous team-effort. It is even sweeter when you have to work so hard together to achieve such a feat.
Peter Scannell…one very proud coach.

Anzac Day at Ajani
The Bullants helped Ted Kelly celebrate Anzac Day last Saturday with the traditional Stand To and the playing of the Last Post. Thanks to the South Melbourne Districts players and officials for their participation in the day

Ted signed up at 15 years of age in 1939 and served with the 2nd / 23rd Batallion, Albury's own 9th division.

Ted was a Rat of Tobruk, fought at the Battle of Alamein and after returning home from the Middle East in 1943, was sent to New Guinea and fought in the Battle of Lae. It was here that he was wounded and returned home in 1944.

Ted also presented the annual Ted Kelly Anzac Day Medallion to James O'Donnell after the game. This Medallion is awarded annually to the Bulleen Templestowe player who shows the most courage, team work and plays in the true spirit of the game.

Other Ted Kelly medallists awarded were to Mick Daskalou in the Reserves, Michael Rapinet in the 19s and John Hickey in the Club XV111 side
