It’s official, the mullet is finally over!

Crows forward Taylor Walker promised to shave off his trademark hairstyle if he could raise $50,000 for the Leukaemia Foundation’s World’s Greatest Shave in the ‘Mullet Over’ campaign.

The Australian football public got behind Walker and this great cause, and on Thursday night – having raised more than $66,000 for the Leukaemia Foundation – Tex made good on his promise.

A guest panellist on The Footy Show, Tex allowed Sam Newman to cut off one of the most famous mullets in the country, and shave his head down to a number five.

Tex was joined on the show by his inspiration for ‘Mullet Over’, four-year-old Lily Block and her family, who were presented with a cheque for $66,672 on behalf of the Leukaemia Foundation.

Walker, who was the highest Greatest Shave fundraiser in South Australia and ninth-highest nation-wide, said he was overwhelmed by the support he’d received.

“I was lucky enough to meet Lily through the Crows Foundation and Leukaemia Foundation. More than 11,500 people are diagnosed with Leukaemia each year and that works out to be about 31 per day,” he said.

“I was stoked to have so much support - $66,600 is amazing. Thank you to everyone for putting in.

“Hopefully, it can help people like Lily and the Block family.

Thank you to everyone, who has donated so generously to the campaign. The money raised by Tex’s shave will go towards funding vital blood cancer research.
