Bloody hell! I hadn’t seen the news. That’s horrific

 

[Dan]

Makes me sick just thinking about it.

I can't imagine how those affected families are feeling.

 

[Mr north man]

A real Tragedy to all that have lost their lives RIP to all and sympathies to all that have lost love ones.

 

[Gasometer]

Staggered to read this connection; a devastating loss let alone the connection to a great North family. Truly all the best wishes to the entire family

 

[Hearts to hearts]

Just horrible. Can’t stop thinking about all the victims and their families.

 

[Chadwiko]

Suspect the team will be in black armbands today for this.

The news was heartbreaking enough but to know it has touched one of the North Melbourne family, makes it feel even more so. Our thoughts and prayers are with Kerry, his family and the families of all involved

 

[sherb]

I'm a Tasmanian by birth, and remember Kerry Good well, both from his time in Tassie football and also for North.

What a devastating loss for him and his family. It's unimaginable what they must be going through.

 

[muttley45]

As if this wasn't horrible enough to wake up to this morning, to log in and see it involves one of our own, there are no words, deepest condolences to all involved.

 

[koshari]

Well events like this sure put a poor footy run into perspective. Thoughts are with kerry and the other people affected.

 

[Dingster]

Condolences to the Good family. That's just all kinds of wrong.

 

[gokangas]

What can you say? Condolences to the Good family. What a horrible story. Just mind numbing. And the animal tried to kill her 9 month old baby. This is sickness of the worst kind. Another victim is the daughter of John Singleton.

 

[Makeshift Park]

What an absolutely senseless loss of life.

Thoughts are with the Good family and everyone in their circle.

North Melbourne extends its deepest sympathies to the Good family following the tragic death of Ashlee Good in Sydney on Saturday.

Ashlee Good is the daughter of past player and former board member Kerry Good and his first wife Denise. Kerry played 74 games for the Kangaroos from 1977-83 and served as a director during North Melbourne’s successful run through the 1990s.

Ashlee’s nine-month old daughter Harriet also suffered injuries in the random attack on shoppers at Bondi Junction Westfield on Saturday afternoon. Ashlee is the second of Kerry’s four children and was known and loved by many in the North Melbourne community.

North Melbourne President Dr Sonja Hood said those connected to North Melbourne were tremendously saddened by the news.

“Like all Australians, we were horrified to see the awful details coming out of Sydney on Saturday,” Dr Hood said.

“To learn later that Ashlee and her daughter were victims in this tragedy really brings something like this close to home.

“Our thoughts and condolences go to all those impacted by the awful events, especially to Ashlee’s partner Daniel Flanagan, Kerry and Dian, Ashlee’s mother Denise, and Ashlee’s extended family and friends.

“Kerry and his family are incredibly important people in our club’s history and we offer them our love and support through what is an unimaginably difficult time.”

Kerry and his family have accepted the club’s offer for North Melbourne players to wear black armbands in honour of Ashlee in the match against Geelong on Sunday afternoon.

 

[Ligma]

my heart breaks for the family.

Life is not fair.

 

[The acurate one]

Not sure I feel worse due to the North family connection, as I type this right now there are so many victims trying to come to terms with what happened. Their lives will never be the same, just cannot be.
My tiny mind cannot contemplate the severity of being in the right place at the wrong time.
Right place being we all should feel safe wandering around.

I wish them all the very best and hope that they find the strength to be ok. So sad.

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

Incomprehensible that something like this can happen.

If this doesn’t put football into perspective, then nothing does.

 

[DarkPhoenix]

Speechless.
Vale Ashlee, and best of luck to little bub.

 

[shinboner magic]

So sad to hear the news yesterday and now this on top of it.
The world has many sick ppl

 

[archereleven]

Simply a horrendous turn of events.

Vale, all that were killed.

More money needs to be spent on mental health.

Until it begins to affect those in positions of power, nothing will change.

Just read an update that Ash's little baby had surgery and is considered stabilising, but still critical.

Ash's last acts were to ensure that bystanders took her baby and got her medical attention.
