A piece of history about our greatest ever player - Ron Barassi on growing up in Guildford

Beautiful little town.

Preserved like a museum as many towns in the locale are.

Well worth a trip if you are ever scouring the goldfields on a dirty weekend.

I wish there was a "like" button for "like this a lot!"

Been there, done that ... the only thing was that when we were there it was at the height of a drought and the area looked a little worse for wear. I'm sure in normal times it would look green and fantastic.

Despite all that, I was aware that it was Barassi territory and I took in the significance of that part of the great man's heritage. Sadly, most Demon fans don't understand how significant his impact was on the game and on the team that dominated the competition to such an extent that it won six flags in a decade.

On this of all days, the story brings back great memories.
