85 WAS A GOOD YEAR wrote:SFL 3 time Assoc B Grade Medalist & Flagstaff Hill Legend Andrew Heatley is the Grandson of the man this stand was named after.
Andrew and his son Shane are mad Carlton fanatics who still ensure they fit in a trip to Princes Park and the Heatley Stand whenever they holiday in Melbourne. During every vist they are treated as VIP's by Carlton Officials, and get a guided tour to the rooms to meet players and coaches.
Andrew will be devastated.
I dare say he'll still get treated like VIP's. I can recall Carlton saying they'd name part of the new facility after Heatley, so hopefully the tradition continues.....
