Brett Chandler

[Hearts to hearts]

Sat next to Brett's mum at the Collingwood game yesterday - my son and I had our North gear on so we got chatting. I remember him as a feisty little player and now I see where he gets it from! Not often I hear a woman of her years yelling things like "Franklin, you're a FLOG!" even at Collingwood games.

She was sitting with a friend who is a lifelong Pies fan but has been a North member since Brett was drafted. It's nice to meet good-hearted, normal people like that when you're trying to work across club divides.

Well done H2H, you've finally located the only good hearted, normal Pies supporter. History made yesterday.

Very gutsy little goer was Brett.

We had Brett as our guest at one of the Shinboner Spirit supporter group dinners. He was very impressive. Great footy brain. Will end up as a senior coach without a doubt.

This. I'll always speak highly of players who give it their all. Bretty was one. It sounds like his mum will be highly spoken of by me too, if I ever sit near her at the footy.

Very gutsy player.

I remember one time he threw his head between the ball and someones boot just to stop them kicking at goal. No free kick of course but he just got up rubbed his head and got on with it. Amazing.

I real Pagan type player.
