It was July 28, 1979 & Fitzroy 36.22.238 defeated Melbourne 6.12.48 to break the record for the highest ever League score. The record was previously held by Footscray. Who kicked the goal, which took Fitzroy past the previous record?

Good answer, I grew up in Hampton Park and played junir footy there for 8 years. Nobody has ever recognised the fact at Hampton Park that the Redbacks have produced a VFL captain (Merrigan in 1978). Perhaps it's because he played for Fitzroy!

Maybe they'll recognise him, if he's named in Fitzroy's Team of the Century.
