All Stars Storm Home

13 June, 2007

Kicking off at 7.30pm on Wednesday, 13th of June, the 2007 Ray White EJ Whitten Legends Game was another blockbuster.

In its 12th successful year, the game drew a crowd of 12,897 to Telstra Dome and for the first time in the history of the event, went live to air on Channel Nine. The atmosphere was electric. Mexican waves swept around the ground and as soon as the man of the moment, Bryan Strauchan, walked out onto the field the chanting began, "Strauchanie, Strauchanie..."

In what was yet another close game, our guest players proved to be up to the challenge, with goals from Strauchanie, Todd Russell and Victoria's Play in the Game winner, Perry Meka. Other highlights included the performance of two VWFL players, Daisy Pearce and Shannon Mcferran, and the All Stars' Play in the Game winner, Revis Ryder.

The All Stars now lead the series, with six wins to Victoria's five. Scores and rivalries were forgotten however, as the post-game celebrations continued long into the night.

Final Score
All Stars 13.7: 85
Victoria 1.9.7: 70
