We love letters like this. And I can assure you all that the feeling is 100% mutual.
Hi Motts,
Just a quick email before the SC season comes to an end to thank you & the SCT staff for your ongoing efforts on the SCT site.
You guys provide such an awesome site for us every day footy followers to come together, swing ideas & learn from each other. I’m sure I’m not the only one that benefits in my overall rankings (currently 242nd) over the past few years, thanks to SCT & the staff behind the scenes BS, Duck, MJ, Nath & of course your fine self buddy.
Cheers Catta
PS…On a personal note, my eldest son has just finished his 1st full season of under 9’s as an 8 year old after suffering 5 years of chemotherapy after being diagnosed with “Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia” on Christmas Eve 2006. He not only inspires us daily/weekly/monthly & yearly with his attitude ………but this year he has inspired everyone around him by kicking 27.9 for the season ( in 8 games ) to be the leading goal kicker in his competition by 12 goals. I really wanted to post this in a thread somewhere on SCT, but I wasn’t sure if it was appropriate so I thought I’d add it to my thank you email.
Keep up the gr8 work Motts…………….Go Hawks!

Ditto Motts, Duck, MJ and co. You guys do a fantastic job on this site and has helped immensely while being enjoyable reading while at ‘work’. Will be looking forward to next year. The SC cravings usually start again only about a fortnight after the GF!
Motts- good luck this weekend am playing you in SCT1 (with almost a 2nd tier team lol)
And to the anonymous letter writer, big congrats to your boy in the footy that is awesome stuff!
Awesome work by the young fella, he would be a first picked forward in my Under 9 Supercoach team especially with that sort of accuracy in front of goal.
Some articles need a massive like button. This is one of them.
Great stuff right there.
What an absolute ripper. That just made my day. Thank you.
Cheers Motts for posting my email, especially regarding my son’s efforts. In that email I should have also mention my appreciation & thank you, to my fellow SCT coaches as they have been inspiration in 2013.
Well done again SCT 🙂
The lads 8 an hes a better kick then Cloke already. Inspirational stuff mate, true little champion!
Well done to the SCT team and thank you for the site and advice!
Re the great goal kicking kid, get him down to the G to give Clokey and Buddy some goal kicking advice!
Great stuff fella.
Pencil in Catta jnr for 2023 ($115k, Fwd rookie)
Now that is a champion!
Good work Catta and a great story to read. Congrats on the young fellow.
He does not run up like JJK does he with that kind of accuracy.
I bet he is not a left footer but a right footer. Not as woeful as buddy in front of goal but sounds more like Jacky Gunston.
Great effort thus far in Supercoach, Catta. And thanks for kicking off the weekend in high spirits by sharing with us your son’s inspirational story.
Great article, hope for the best for the young fella in the future.
Good luck and best wishes mate
Geez Scotty – Your going to make me feel a little bad the next time I beat you in LoEC, with such nice words like that 😉
But seriously mate, all the best to you and your family.
Cheers Catta, great story. I really do hope everything works out well for your family.
Also, who does your son play for? I have a bit to do with my local junior footy.
Great work Catta. (And to your son too).
And once again thanks Motts, BS, MJ, Duck, Nath and the whole SCT family, contributors included.
Fantastic read.
I think it has all been said above, a massive thanks to the whole SCT team for what they do everyday.
Must be very proud of the little fella Catta. I have a 3 year old and a 1 year old son and the thought of them going through what your son has had to endure, just breaks my heart. You look at life differently when you become a parent. The next time we have a doughnut on the field or our captain stinks it up, just think back to this article and life may not seem so bad. Goon on ya mate
Great words Catta. Fantastic news on your eldest boy. As a father of 3 myself, it would be every parents nightmare to go through what you went through with your boy. Good luck for his footy, i’m sure he has been loving every minute of it.
Thanks Catta for sharing your story, its made my day. We have friends who’s 6 year old is going through the early stages of leukaemia, I will pass on your note as inspiration for them. All the best mate. DT
