The 1970 Grand Final Highlights from many different sources apart from HSV 7

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.

I blame the pandemic on Goodwin, he had no plan P

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!

  • The Clayton Oliver Thread

    Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

    It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

    The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

    The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
