In conclusion, it was a really great night with numbers slightly down (due to the Cowboys playing at home) but a night that most will remember with positive & happy thoughts.
A big thank-you must go to Stan Huen for organising all the trophies and also to Mel Death (pictured left) for being the MC for the evening.
A special thank you to Mitchell Johnson for making the time & effort to attend his Club's presentation and taking time out to talk with our up & coming youngsters.
Thanks also to the Management & staff at the Centenary Hotel for making the night enjoyable & hassle free.
