| 2009 Footy Fever Debate
Friday 4 September 7 – 9am
HAVE WE LOST THE CONNECTION WITH
GRASSROOTS FOOTY?
|  |
| This annual event hosted by Jim Wilson will see the debate forum return to the breakfast and ask our panel the question “Have we lost the connection with Grassroots Footy?"
Held in the MCC Member’s Dining Room overlooking the MCG, this humorous and sometimes fiery debate between high profile footballers and football personalities, is guaranteed to provide great entertainment and football insights, whilst guests enjoy a delicious gourmet breakfast.
All proceeds raised at the event go towards supporting families of children of life threatening illness.
This fantastic event keeps getting better and better, and has sold out the last two years, don’t miss out on securing your tickets now!

We raised $174,000!!!

Debate ran hot about controversial rule changes, night footy, salary caps, and the draft. While nothing stays the same forever, our panel couldn't quite agree on what exactly needed to change.
|  |
| With all funds raised enabling Very Special Kids to continue its vital work supporting families of children with a life-threatening illness, the 2008 Footy Fever Debate was a sensational start to this year's Piggy Bank Appeal.
