1964 GF Film discovered

Featured Replies

CH 9 reporting a COMPLETE copy of the 1964 GF has been discovered in Perth!

Thought to have been lost, with only about 30 mins previously available.

More info as it comes to hand.

2nd half has been uploaded by Rhettrospective to YouTube!! Channel 9 version.

Edited by Dr. Gonzo

 

I hope the whole lot arrives before tomorrow arvo.

It's a Melbourne-Collingwood game I fear I'm going to be preferring to watch.

Mind you, wouldn't a 2025 'Froggy' Crompton be nice tomorrow!😁


SENSATIONAL. I'm loving the 3rd quarter, and Mrlbourne's hard scrapping in windy conditions.

Did the 9 news say it was the full copy found or only the 2nd half?

Just like our current team!!


Drop kick goals on the run, Wow who would have thought

And no surprise how many times a Melbourne footballer is downed after he kicks the ball. Hassa Mann absolutely dominating such a great footballer

How heavenly ironic, finding it in Perth, where we found our 13th premiership.

I would love to know the providence of the tape. These stories can be just as interesting.

So who won the Norm Smith Medal that day ??

I thought John Townsend (16) played really well. Ran like Robbie. What a pity he did his knee. Came back but not as good.

Actually XL runs like him today, fast , light on his feet, balanced and has sgility

No one

Think about it ;)


Thst was a fishing comment,

But who then in Norm Smiths eyes was bog. It was not Neil Crompton cos he was out of position. But he did (apparently) follow his man down the field.

Not sure I was not there. Melbourne were always in finals and I was a bit blase about it.

Even if I did not know it st the time

Go Dee’s. Win it again today. It is our Granny.

Neil Compton BOG in dying stages of the match. Kicks match winning goal, big contested interception mark in final minute to push Demons forward and strong tackle in dying seconds to thwart desperate final charge by Collingwood. Stuff of heroics. A couple of irrelevant observations of the game were ticker tape to celebrate goals, smoking on the coaches bench.

Not sure BOG But a definite hero, and he did win the match for us. Absolutely no doubt

Hassa Mann. Played well but John Townsend. Brian Kennealy and Ken Emselle Were my favourites

wouldn’t it be good for history to repeat

Looked like either Hassan Mann or Brian Dixon as bog? Dixon was said to have had a great 1st half.
