Mortlock Shield Life Membership was presented to Mid West's Craig (Butch) Sampson at a formal ceremony at the 2016 Mortlock Shield Dinner.
Fittingly, Eyre Peninsula legend Madigan Sampson presented the Life Membership at the function.
Mid West is proud and grateful for the efforts of Butch Sampson over the 16 year (so far) involvement with the Carnival, and also Port Adelaide Cup, Kinlough Cup, all other inter league and zone appointments.
Craig received the honour along with Craig Curtis (Great Flinders) and Paul Jenner (Eastern Ranges)
MC for the Mortlock dinner was ABC Radio's Emma Pedler, who did a great job in hosting the evening. Mortlock Shield President Richard Horgan spoke on behalf of the Carnival Committee and guest Key-Note speaker was Tom Gray, who provided an entertaining account of his time as an AFL Footballer and insights to life in the media and football in general.
Congratulations Butch, an honour richly deserved.
