ANGLESEA Football Club legend Craig “Jacko” Leeman played his final home game for the club at the weekend.<\/p>\n
It is more than four decades since Leeman first pulled on the blue and white jersey at just nine years of age.<\/p>\n
Since then he has played more than 500 games for the club and been part of multiple premiership winning sides.<\/p>\n
The club has changed much over that time, with Leeman recalling spending much of his early years playing on dirt rather than grass.<\/p>\n
But what Leeman feels hasn\u2019t changed is the\u00a0 spirit.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe biggest thing is the friendship and the mateship. It\u2019s just one big family.\u201d<\/p>\n
The club is family in the more literal sense too, as Leeman has played alongside all three of his sons at various stages.<\/p>\n
While the Anglesea reserves weren\u2019t able to celebrate the occasion with a win, Leeman kicked a goal and was named one of the best on ground.<\/p>\n
Leeman will continue as reserves coach next season, but says he will (probably) no longer be taking to the field.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
