The Baldock Book
Is anyone reading the new Darrel Baldock book? The incomparable 'Mr. Magic'.
Only read the first twenty-two pages and already I feel like watching the 66 premiership again.

For a biography of not only St Kilda's sole premiership captain, but arguably the greatest Tasmanian in football history, I'm surprised just how little promotion this book launch got. Saints shop is apparently the sole distributor in Victoria.TriColourDisciple wrote:Didn't realise that the book existed until I read your post.
I've since Googled and ordered it, and am looking forward to what looks to be a great read.

I hadn't heard about it either, until I saw it in a bookshop in Launceston last week.Sainternist wrote:Like TriColourDisciple, I had no prior knowldege of this publication.
Great news that Peter Lyons has piad tribute to the great man.
Grabbed a copy for myself and my old man (that's fathers day sorted out) before I left for Melbourne.
Life is very short and there's no time for fussing and fighting my friends.
