how about sending this to georgie day who looks after the Saints heritage museum?
Big Carl rather stands out. Pity he didn't play in the last match of the previous season. He deserved weeks for what he did out at the old Fitzroy Oval, but 4 (like every other offence of a similar nature in those days) not 6. The Tribunal penalty was calculated on the basis of the number of games to ensure that he could not play in the GF (barring a draw).
The little brown headed boy in the #4 Saints jumper who pushes in for an autograph at the start and then has about 4 or 5 cameos throughout is actually my Dad!!
He was 10 at the time but he still has the green autograph book that he can be seen pushing under all the boys noses.
What an absolute classic. This one will be trotted out at family get togethers for years to come!!
