footy fever debate
The signature event of the Piggy Bank Appeal was not only a thoroughly enjoyable morning thanks to a spirited debate by high profile panellists Andrew Demetriou, Jeff Kennett, Caroline Wilson, Matthew “Richo” Richardson, Matthew Lloyd and Billy Brownless, but it also raised a phenomenal $177,000 for Very Special Kids.
Thank you to the generosity of everybody who supported this ‘very special’ event.
We thank AMP and Goldman Sachs for sponsoring the event and our many corporate networks their support.

This annual event, held in the MCC Members Dining Room at the MCG on Friday 9 September, continues to be one of the hottest tickets in town with 500 guests snapping them up in less than a few weeks!
The event, hosted by sports presenter, Jim Wilson, saw panellists explore what makes a team great and ultimately what wins a premiership.
This year we were generously supported by high profile panellists Andrew Demetriou, Jeff Kennett, Caroline Wilson, Matthew “Richo” Richardson, Matthew Lloyd, and Billy Brownless.
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.
