On February 28 Susan Alberti was pleased to be part of the return of AFL football to Whitten Oval, with a pre-season match between the Western Bulldogs and Richmond Football Club taking place in front of a sell out crowd of 10,000 fans. “Many of my fondest memories growing up were here at this ground,” Sue said. “It was great to see the red, white and blue once again triumph in our western heartland.”
