I love photos from this period and before because they capture more of the truth about the subject. Cameras weren't so ubiquitous that everyone -- like today -- is constantly aware of their presence and has a 'camera smile' they put on when they know they're being observed.

Good find, Kosi.


This was my father's belief
And this is also mine:
Let the corn be all one sheaf--
And the grapes be all one vine,
Ere our children's teeth are set on edge
By bitter bread and wine.

Great photo and memories for a 70 year old saints man also loved those jumpers with the collars.

Absolute classic brings back memories of my playing days at opposition venues cold showers cramped spaces but hanging with mates didn't seem to bother you too much especially if you had a win

Ross Oakley ( not pictured ) also was injured and missed the grand final ( same happened to him in 65). We were actually far from full strength in our premiership game .
Really tough on those blokes who missed out on being Premiership heroes.

The collar and the large crest - great look!
