It is with sadness that we advise that the deer hunter missing in the high country near Mansfield, David Prideaux, was a member of our club.

A memorial service for David is being conducted at Tabcorp Park, (Melton Trotting Complex) on Monday 4th July at 2.00pm.

Anyone wishing to leave a tribute for David please go to David Maxwell Prideaux Australian Tribute Website Tribute

Among other things, David assisted in the running of a new initiative in our junior ranks in 2010, of a specialised "off-season" coaching clinic for our Under 14s and Under 16s.

David's son Caleb, has played all his junior footy with Rupo, and has joined the Under 18 team in 2011.

Our thoughts and prayers are with Joanne, Caleb and the Prideaux family.
