Wake up to Grand Final Day this year with the Western Bulldogs and Big Bounce 2009.  Highlights of the morning include a footy panel featuring some of the game’s biggest names, a performance from Australia’s most nationally recognised entertainer, Matt Hollywood and comedic entertainment by Dave O’Neil.

Taking centre stage on the panel for 2009 will be Gerard Healy, Tony Shaw and Mark Stevens.

About the panel:

Gerard Healy played 130 games with Melbourne from 1979 to 1985 and then 81 with Sydney from 1986 to 1990. He won the 1988 Brownlow Medal but was forced into retirement at just 29 because of a wrist injury. He is an All-Australian Selector and Victorian Chairman of Selectors for the International Rules Team.  Gerard now calls AFL footy on 3AW and Fox Footy.  Joining Gerard is ex-Collingwood premiership captain Tony Shaw who was told he was not good enough for league football, but he more than silenced the critics in a career spanning 18 seasons.

Shaw played more games than any other Collingwood player in history, won two Copeland trophies, captained Collingwood's famous 1990 Premiership side and won the Norm Smith Medal.  He is now an integral member of Fox Footy Channel through his work alongside fellow legends Doug Hawkins, Bob Davis and Kevin Bartlett on Grumpy Old Men and on Fox's live AFL match coverage.

Complementing Gerard and Tony is one of Melbourne’s leading sports journalists with the Herald Sun, Mark Stevens who has collected numerous journalistic awards including the Cricket Victoria major media award, AFL Media Association feature writer of the year and News Awards finalist, highly commended in Sports Journalist of Year category.  

Guests are also guaranteed a hilarious and unforgettable performance by Matt Hollywood and will be left with a side splitting routine by Dave O’Neil.

All this, plus a sumptuous hot breakfast and full beverage package, and all before heading off to the Big Game.
