North Melbourne CEO Jennifer Watt expressed pride in the club’s Good Friday SuperClash, which partnered with Carlton to support the Royal Children’s Hospital Good Friday Appeal. Watt thanked the sold-out crowd and everyone who supported the event since its launch in 2017.
Good Friday Appeal executive director Rebecca Cowan expressed gratitude to North Melbourne for their support and partnership since 2017.
