Rivalries were put aside and coaches joined forces at the MCG before Collingwood's Queen's Birthday clash with Melbourne.

Leaders from all 18 clubs took the plunge into freezing cold water, as has been tradition since the Big Freeze kicked off four years ago. 

And of course it's all for a great cause. A proud Neale Daniher greeted each and every coach as they raised money and awareness for the fight against motor neuron disease. 

The reactions to the Big Freeze 4 were priceless and all were collected by the team at AFL Photos. View the best images in the gallery below.
