Robbie Williams has made a special appearance at the MCG in the moments before Carlton’s Friday night AFL blockbuster with Collingwood. Led by former Blues skipper and cancer survivor Sam Docherty, the packed Melbourne crowd came together in unison to pay tribute to cancer battlers, survivors, and those who have lost their fight to the disease.
Robbie Williams included in special pre-game ceremony. The MCG lights were dimmed as members of the crowd were invited to shine their phone torches in the air while Williams’s touching rock anthem Angels bellowed from the speakers at the ground. And the song was introduced by the artist himself, who recorded a message that was played on the big screens to the crowd. “I feel honoured for my song to have been chosen for this very special moment,” Williams said.
