AFLW: Collingwood held on to withstand Geelong at Victoria Park, while West Coast and Essendon also grabbed wins.
Married life for Eagles veteran Andrew Gaff got off to a hot start after his wedding guests had to be evacuated as a raging bushfire razed a popular City Beach park.understands Gaff and his partner, Emma Van Woerden, said their vows at the Quarry Amphitheatre on Sunday in the hours before a fire started at Bold Park about 9pm.Sources say the attendees had to relocate to Elliot Yeo’s pub, the Broken Hill Hotel.
The Department of Fire and Emergency Services issued a “watch and act” alert at about 10.30pm on Sunday after the fire started in Bold Park. Residents in parts of City Beach, Floreat and Mt Claremont were warned there was a possible threat to lives and homes and “conditions were changing”.Gaff, 31, had a rocky year with the Eagles, averaging only 20 disposals in 23 games — his lowest return since 2013.
The two-time All-Australian almost found himself dropped after recording only six disposals against Brisbane in round 17, his lowest disposal output in a game since starting as a substitute in the early games of his first-year campaign in 2011. Gaff was handed a lifeline when he was named as the sub against Richmond the following week and he finished with 24 disposals after coming on early for the injured Reuben Ginbey.
