It’s always a pleasure to host the annual Pre-Grand Final Day Lunch here at The Rising Sun. ☀️

Each year, this wonderful luncheon raises funds for The Stars Foundation, supporting its important work mentoring and empowering Indigenous girls and young women. This year, an incredible $18,000 was raised. 💫

We’re always proud to host this special event, but this year’s lunch carried extra meaning following the recent passing of Brian Duxbury — a long-time friend and a much-loved customer of The Riser.
Brian was sorely missed last Friday, but very fondly remembered.

A wonderful afternoon for a wonderful cause, and a fitting tribute to a great friend. ❤️

AND THAT’S A WRAP 🔥❤️‍🔥🦢

To every Swans fan who has walked through our doors, sung your heart out, raised a glass and brought the spirit of the Bloods to The Riser — thank you. 🦢❤️🤍

You’ve filled this place with energy, passion and a sense of community that makes match days at the Rising Sun something really special.

From the familiar faces who have been with us week after week, to those who found us for the first time this season — we’ve loved having you here.

A special shout out to Mads & Deebs True Bloods | A Sydney Swans Fan Podcast - it’s always a pleasure and a laugh with you boys ❤️

We’d also like to thank Martin & Ernie for running our match day raffle, Caroline from Sisters of the South , Rob Pascoe, Tony Morwood, Duncan McPherson, Jonathan Monasso and The Blood Brothers for all your support.

Win, lose or draw, you’ve made The Riser feel like home for Swans fans in Melbourne. ❤️‍🔥

Thank you for your continued support, your spirit and for making every game one to remember.

🦢🔥❤️🤍 SEE YOU NEXT SEASON SWANNIES.
