Info
The NAB Cup of 2009 has generated a greater amount of interest than previous years. The 2nd game of Round 1 featured an Essendon v Western Bulldogs match at Etihad Stadium dedicated to the Black Saturday bushfires. The competition also created headlines for a scheduling error that saw the upcoming 2nd round match between Collingwood v Richmond (at Etihad Stadium) clash with the A-League Grand Final 2009, with the AFL handing over the right to Melbourne Victory. This match was later transferred to a Thursday Night, and featured the long awaited return of fallen AFL star Ben Cousins, for the Richmond Tigers.
