Looking forward to this ^^^^^^^^^
I bet you enjoyed it!!
Good to read the boys are back on track.
Was Freddy Hepner there? Played 3 games in 1960, I remember getting his autograph at 3q time in the 2's one day.
Who were the other greats?
So who won guys?
Fitzroy won by a point kicked after the siren
Some coverage on Channel 10 (in Melb) tonight...not sure if its on the news or Sports Tonight...most probably the news
Red and white till I die
Paper had the score correct but the winner wrong.
FITZROY REDS 0.5 2.10 7.13 11.17-83
SOUTH MELBOURNE DIST. 3.5 4.6 8.8 12.10-82
Gutted!
Peter Bedford ? Brownlow Medallist and member of the Swans Team of the Century
John Heriot ? Full Back in the Swans Team of the Century and President of the Swans Past Players Association
Clem Goonan
John Fogarty
Terry (Tex) McGee
Jeffrey (Torch) McGee ? from the Coodabeen Champions
Fred Goldsmith Brownlow Medallist was an apology because he was recovering from a hip operation
Tim Costello CEO of World Vision was a cancellation because he had flown to Burma but his wife Merridie and son Martin (current SMD Best and Fairest)attended.
Mike Tinsley, major sponsor from Albert Park Indoor Sports Centre attended.
Francis Romano and Ken Bennett represented the Districts Past Players.
Hear all is not well at SMDFC at the moment,the new coach not too popular with the players.
The present coach's old team is unbeaten after 6 rounds after only winning 2 games under "killer" last season,maybe the wrong choice was made not going with Dave Matthews who had a better record.
