Just watched it on the Club website now thanks to Aph posting the link. I loved Kotton and Bolf interviews throughout. You could see how much this whole thing from the movie to the actual game itself means to him. Still think Syd Jackson’s the coolest bloke goin tho.
Worked with Howard and Tony when they were at the Herald Sun, mad nutter Carlton supporters who told some great stories.
Tony was stiffed trying to get the scoop on Colonial Stadium when it was opening and the AFL wanted his head and got it. campaigners

My favourite player in the late 70s, early 80s. Which is saying something with the competition he had.
There was the peerless Ashman, Doull the best backman of all time, not just Carlton, the superhuman, bravest ever Hunter, and the superb Harmes.
But The Dominator was unbelievably good. Nothing compares with the way he could hit a pack at pace, and explode out, and hit targets or goals every time.
A complete force of nature.

I was lamenting Vossy spilling the beans this morning and declaring that Charlie Curnow is not playing on Sunday.
Nobody plays mind games any longer.
It made me think of the 1982 GF when David Clarke and Frank Marchesani ran out with the team to keep Richmond guessing about who was playing. It didn’t quite work.
I then googled the game and found this cracking article summing up the game. It highlights the big moments. I love the reference to Alex Marcou’s goal in the last quarter. It happened right in front of where we were sitting. It wasn’t only Serge doing the happy dance.

From the Archives, 1982: Unrelenting Blues conquer the ultimate challenge
In 1982, in front of 107,000 people, Carlton defeated Richmond 103 to 85 to win the VFL Grand Final. It was a classically tough game of football marked by bursts of weather, two player reports, several brawls within minutes of the start and sufficient emotion to prompt the first streaker at a...
And to think with the current rules we might well have lost as Hunter wouldn’t have been able to come back on under concussion protocols and Rioli ran riot in the time he was off the field. With Ditchburn that would have left us with 2 players unable to come back onI was lamenting Vossy spilling the beans this morning and declaring that Charlie Curnow is not playing on Sunday.

Legend Rhett, you do a great job with the Tigerland Archive, up there with Blueseum for us. I’m sure the Blueseum will pick this up if they haven’t already got it

I know a different time… but were Channel 7 and the ABC allowed to simulcast grand finals back in the day?
I had no idea there was an ABC version of the 1970 grand final.

Incredible footage Rhett! Glad there is stuff like this still out there waiting to be found. Great stuff as always
Yep, ABC and Ch7 had their own callers and own cameras. So different angles and all. Ch9 also televised up to 1973 (that colour footage was recently found and is here )
Had a quick chat to Syd Jackson on Sunday at the East Perth Presidents lunch before the WAFL Grand Final. As always he was well dressed in a suit and tie and not a hair out of place. Unfortunately his beloved East Perth lost on the day.
