Hassa Mann was invited to a function held by the Old Scotch Collegians FC ( Launceston Tasmania ) at the Anzac Hostel, Launceston in April 1965. I had played one season in 1964 with Old Scotch who were beaten by Old Launcestonians in the Northern Amateur Grand Final. John Hamilton, who played for OL's and myself were recruited by MFC in 1965 and boarded at Kinkora Guest House, 186 Punt Road, Prahran with other MFC players. Tried to drag photo of Hassa into this but failed :(

I was employed at Mobil Head Office in 2 City Road South Melbourne 1965 - 1968 and Hassa Mann was also there. I was hospitalized in 1966 after damaging my knee in a MFC practice match at the MCG. Hassa would visit me once a week and bring my Mobil pay to me. Top bloke.

I have been searching for photos of MFC Senior, Reserve and Under 19 teams from 1964 to 1969. I have had help from VFL AFL 20th Century History Photos Videos Memories on Facebook. I have attached one photo of 1964 Under 19 team. I can identify about 4 players. Someone may know more. Thanks in advance. Bob Gormly.
