Former Number One Junior Ticket Holder Jesse Dart was formally farewelled on Thursday as the club continues its search for his replacement for season 2010.

Jesse, who has held the title as Number One Junior Ticket Holder for the past two seasons, got a big surprise when Rhys Palmer made a special visit to his school to thank him for his efforts.

Jesse and his classmates were engaged in story-time when Rhys unexpectedly called in, obviously to the delight of Jesse and everyone in the classroom.

Rhys presented Jesse with a signed and framed Fremantle jumper as a memento for his time as Fremantle’s junior ambassador and thanked him on behalf of everyone at the club for the great job he has done.

Jesse then took the opportunity to give his opinion on what sort of applicant the club should be looking for to replace him!

“They just need to be a passionate supporter, really and just hope that the Dockers pick you for it,” said Jesse.

“They also have to barrack hard for the team week in week out.”

With Jesse’s two-year tenure officially coming to an end, he said there were plenty of highlights for him but none more memorable than cheering the team on in the Derby wins against the Eagles over the past few seasons. He also said that he was already feeling very positive about season 2010.

“We haven’t had the best seasons the last few years but I think next season we can pick ourselves up off the canvas! Go Freo!”

So, now that Jesse has officially hung up his boots we are asking our Junior Members to tell us why they deserve the mantle in 2010 and time is running out!
