Brett Heinrich is a thoroughly deserving The Barker Hotel Volunteer of the Week, recognised for the dedication and passion he brings to every part of Club life. As Coach of our U12 Roos, Brett has led the group to an outstanding season, securing top spot on the ladder heading into finals. His calm leadership, strong communication, and ability to bring out the best in young players have been central to the team’s growth and confidence.His contribution extends well beyond coaching. Brett was the driving force behind last weekend’s Past Players and Officials Day, taking on the role of main organiser and ensuring the event was a huge success. His willingness to put in the hard work behind the scenes — planning, coordinating, and problem‑solving — helped deliver a day that celebrated the people who shaped the Roos across generations.Brett is also someone who consistently puts forward ideas that strengthen the Club and improve the experience for players, families, and volunteers. He’s never shy about offering thoughtful suggestions, always with the betterment of the Roos in mind. That proactive mindset has made him a valuable voice in shaping how we operate and how we continue to grow.What stands out most is Brett’s reliability. He is always willing to help when needed, stepping in without hesitation wherever support is required. Whether it’s coaching, organising events, or lending a hand with day‑to‑day Club tasks, Brett embodies the spirit of community sport — generous, committed, and team‑focused.With four generations of the Heinrich family involved in the Roos, Brett continues a proud legacy of service and connection. His passion for the Club is genuine, his impact is significant, and his contribution this season has been exceptional. We’re proud to recognise him as this week’s Volunteer of the Week. … See MoreSee Less

Senior Women Season WrapA massive year of rebuild for our Senior Women, and what a journey it’s been.Coach Clint Rogers reflects on a 2026 season built on courage, commitment and pure Roos spirit. From four juniors stepping into senior footy, to first‑time players discovering the game and loving every minute, this group showed what happens when you create a fun, safe and inclusive environment.Past players returned, new faces jumped in, and suddenly we had a full squad every week—smiling, learning, never giving up. The energy this group brought was infectious, and the way they embraced challenges set the tone for the entire season. Whether it was juggling soccer and footy on the same day or stepping into senior football for the very first time, their effort never wavered.Clint’s focus was simple: build a culture where everyone felt welcome, supported, and proud to wear the jumper. Week after week, the women delivered exactly that. Even when the scoreboard didn’t fall our way, their resilience and joy never faded. They fought hard, backed each other in, and represented the Roos with heart.With strong juniors rising through the ranks and a committed group now established, the future of MBFCW is looking incredibly bright. This season wasn’t just a rebuild — it was the foundation of something special.2026 Milestones: • 50 Senior Games – Ella Clothier• First Ever Game – Alana Macdonald, Gemma Doyle, Lillie Yiatrou, Charlie Main, Kysha Veen, Alice Welsh• First Roos Club Game – Bridget D’Brass, Lainie Jackson, Renee Roberts, Rebecca Watson, Kiora Hemmings• First Senior Game – Ameli Carver, Tegan Barker, Perry Sanders, Matisse Mack, Jahayla Knott, Shalia Davis, Holly Paech, Lucy SchreiberWell done to everyone that pulled on the Roos guernsey this year and thanks to everyone that helped out, especially Clint Rogers (Coach), Shayne Sanders (Team Manager), Max Glover (Runner) and Shelie Barker (Women's Director).GO ROOS! … See MoreSee Less
