I have to say, the scenes on Seven after the match, involving a young Magpie fan called Kyran and his Dad were just brilliant. The kid has been diagnosed with a terminal illness I'm assuming (I missed the details) and the he and his family were guests of the Magpies.
He tossed the coin before the match, they chaired him off at the end (his Dad was crying) and the way the players got around he and his Dad during and after the club song was absolutely 'tear up' material.
Cudos to Treloar, who has taken the young lad under his wing so to speak and to Collingwood (can't believe I just said that!)......footy clubs can be really great sometimes.
