SPORTS: Stranger than Fiction - The "Other" Game from the 1989 VFL Season...

It's now pissing with rain in Melbourne and we should be nursing a thermos on the wing of the MCG. Instead, we're continuing our dive into footy's past. This week, we're joined by author, speaker and former Hawks player Tony Wilson. He's written the definitive account of the 1989 Grand Final, out now via Audible. For our Rewatchables we're going to dip into Tony's memories of the Round 6 clash between Geelong and Hawthorn in 1989. And for Footy Book Club - well, you guessed it - we're going to talk about Tony's book, and the Grand Final. We've also got a brief edition of the Unwatchables, looking at Hawthorn's entry into the VFL in 1925... BUY "1989: The Great Grand Final" here.

SPORTS: Stranger than Fiction - Does Footy Maintain The ANZAC Spirit?

There is still a footy shaped hole in our hearts, so the boys from "The People's Game" are back to try and fill it with a retrospective look at our great game! On the agenda this week: "THE UNWATCHABLES" - Footy and the ANZAC Spirit In 1960, the VFL played footy on Anzac Day for the very first time. At Brunswick Street Oval, Fitzroy upset Carlton by 7 points, and at the Junction Oval, Melbourne beat St Kilda by 24 points. More than 65,815 people attended the two matches. The boys explore footy's journey from accidental ANZAC Day matches to a modern day military tradition. "THE REWATCHABLES" - The "First" ANZAC Day Game: Round 4, 1995 Collingwood vs. Essendon In 1995, a new tradition was born when Collingwood and Essendon met on a Tuesday afternoon at the MCG in front of 94,825 fans. It remains the second highest home and away crowd in league history. (The 2020 Anzac Day clash would have been the 25th instalment.) This "traditional clash" is the one that has endured, despite attempts by the league to place other matches on Anzac Day - first, between Sydney and Melbourne for the Barassi Cup, and later, by having St Kilda play in New Zealand. The boys recap this classic match between two "old foe" clubs, and examine how the footy public has embraced footy's place on ANZAC Day. FOOTY BOOK CLUB: The Short Long Book Anzac Day 1995 is also remembered because of an incident that occurred with three minutes to go, when Michael Long was racially vilified by Damien Monkhorst Two years on from Nicky Winmar's famous gesture at Victoria Park, Long made a stand that forced the AFL to introduce penalties for on-field racial discrimination. In his biography of Long - The Short Long Book - Martin Flanagan writes that the stand was the AFL's "Mandela moment". That book, published in 2015, is our book club read for the week.

Season Openers & Silly Football - 2021 AFL Round 1 Review + 1970 VFL GF Retro Rewind

Footy re-entered our lives last weekend, as people re-entered the MCG. We were astounded by upsets, boilovers and a little bit of individual brilliance while also being stressed out by the uncontrollable nature of fandom. The state of the game was given a "full bill of health" and that seems especially true if you reflect on how far footy has come. Join JB & Gordo for another week of deep dives and footy fandom.

The COVID Chronicles: Day 1 - It Was Acceptable In The 70s

G'day citizens of The People's Game, and welcome to "The COVID Chronicles" presented by Sporting Chance Magazine. Despite being in the middle of a global pandemic, footy's evergreen debate is raging as strong as ever. What can be done about the "state of the game"? Those in the media will tell us that we need to go back to the "good old days" of knockabout blokes and pack marks - but was footy really better in the old days? In today's episode "It was acceptable in the 70s" JB and Gordo rewatch the 1978 Round 7 clash between St Kilda and Essendon at Moorabbin Oval to see what all the fuss was about footy back in the day... We love to hear your thoughts on what footy means to you in the year 2020. Drop us a line on the Sporting Chance Magazine's Facebook page or on Twitter via @sc_mag_aus
