Just watched this on ye olde IQ. Another very well put together doco, and obviously a very painful day for our club.
There are a few things in there that are interesting, the WCE/Coll draw stuffing us up is well known, and my father can vividly remember the fumbly, shambolic training session at Windy Hill, but what I found extraordinary is that we had a club function after the parade on Friday at Flemington, with Salmon saying he didn't get home until 10PM.
I mean... what the hell? Surely Collingwood weren't doing the same thing. Surely it wasn't the done thing at all. Maybe I've just grown up in this sheltered idea of professional AFL, but I couldn't believe what I was hearing. Anyone else got any info on this?
