First game I remember going to as a 7 year old

I can still remember the noise

I was listening to it and  and spewed with Coll/wood being in front by 7 odd goals something like that at half time.

I remember listening to the radio and they were calling it over Carlton cannot possibly win.  seems like yesterday.

Yes it’s great to hear the different calls

I had only heard Ch7 up until today

Thanks for that SWYL. Has got to be the greatest Plan B performance by any coach, ever. Barassi was a genius.

i wonder what Goodwin would have done at half time if he were in Barassi’s shoes?

tbh it would be a lot harder today, so many tactics have been used and abused since 1970, to play on was radical!

But Goodwin certainly has a lot of work to do on his Matchday Coaching

He seems to work better from the Bench.

Stared thoughtfully out of the coaches box rubbing his chin....and did nothing.

Yay, another unrelated thread turns into Goodwin bashing.

Great get, Sir WYL, thanks for sharing. Goodwin-Bashing shall hereafter be referred to as a 'Fan-Demic'. Participants in such activity should immediately be tested... or at least seek medical advice!
