"I found a second home"
When Johnno’s home life came apart at the seams, in the middle of a wet Winter, he found it really hard to adjust. Flat out at work, he would go home to an empty house – except on Wednesday’s when he started training with the Echuca Emus.
“Just being able to leave everything behind for an hour each week and have a kick, then catch up with a couple of the guys afterwards meant a lot to me,” Johnno said.
“Masters footy is as much about mental health and physical fitness as it is about the matches. It has meant a lot to me, the guys around the club were a great support.”
