L-R: Angus Abbey at the raising of the 2016 Premiership flag, and pictured with son, Ross, in 1974.

Everyone at the Western Bulldogs is saddened to hear of the passing of Angus Abbey, a member of the Club’s 1954 Premiership team.

Angus played 78 times in the red, white and blue and was recognised with the Best Clubman award in Footscray's famous flag-winning year. He was later honoured as a Life Member of the Club.

Our deepest condolences to Dorothy, Ross, Heather, Louise and all of the Abbey family for their profound loss.
