I don't know much about the actual incident at this point, but the Rising Sun hotel- which was a Bernie Quinlan torpedo punt away from headquarters was damaged in a fire early this morning.

It went out of a business as a pub soon after the football club moved away from Footscray and began playing in Carlton.

Some mighty celebrations were held in that place after some great Footscray victories, you reckon it didn't rake in a tidy sum after a Sons of The Scray triumph back in the old days.
