It is with great sadness that one of our great footballers for the Newtown & Chilwell Football Club passed away last week.
Sam started with us in 1993, and shared his time between Newtown & Chilwell and school football at Geelong College. He played over 150 games at the club, 96 of those in the Seniors.
Sam won the Best & Fairest in the Seniors in 1998 and 1999, as well as being named on the forward flank in the Team of the 90’s.
He will always be remembered as a courageous and skillful player who was loved by all his teammates and coaches, but most importantly remembered as a great bloke.
Our thoughts and love are with Kate, Lucy and Teddy and the McMahon family at this time.
For those that are available, a celebration of Sam’s life will be held this Sunday from 11am-2pm at the Newtown & Chilwell clubrooms.
Always an Eagle, fly high Sam.
