    Authorised 2024 Episode 16 The Immortals - Rugby Union & Australian Football.

    Superlatives in the sporting arena are overused, often premature and sometimes unwarranted, but you can't say that about those profiled in two new books from authors Andrew Clarke and Gordon Bray. Immortal is not a word to be used lightly, and Andrew and Gordon have gone to great lengths to ensure there is no doubt everyone in their books is befitting of such a revered title.  Andrew anoints eighteen Australian Rules players and Gordon fifteen of Rugby's elite to the status of Immortal. 'The Immortals' is a series of stunning books from Gelding Street Press highlighting the best of the best in a variety of sports.  Hear the stories behind The Immortals of Australian Football and Rugby Union in this fascinating episode.  And it is thanks to our podcast partners CSCG.

    Authorised 2024 Episode 14 Authors Sally Freedman & Lucas Gillard

    It is referred to as the world game and with that in mind, we showcase two books in this episode. Sally Freedman brings 'Get Your Tits Out For The Lads' and Lucas Gillard the more soberly titled 'George Best Down Under' Both authors' books are well worth your time and attention, even if you have little passion for the round ball game. These are books with great stories and messages and both very well written.  Both are published by Fairplay Publishing and I am sure you will enjoy my chat with the writers as much as you will enjoy their books.    And it is thanks to our podcast partners CSCG.
