Another sad fact about the 1982 Elimination Final was that Ess beat Footscray by 22 goals the week before. The Elim final was to be Max Crow and Justin Madden's last game for Ess. At the time, Ess last final win was in 1968. 😔 Only good thing was that Malcolm Blight was denied his 100th goal for the season.
84 GF - Where were you sitting in the Southern Stand DT? We were right on the wing about 10 rows back from the fence. 40 years later we still have the memories because the now is not so great to dwell upon.
Would have been a matter of metres away. On the wing about halfway back on the lower tier. The guy crying like a baby at the final siren - that was me!
Bizzare. That's exactly where my mate Steve and I were sitting too. I still remember him sitting there after the siren, stunned. I shook him violently but all I could get out of him were a few squeals, the word 'Baker', and a smile.@@absolutelyessendon
Hilarious. 'Ground Zero' will definitely become a distant memory like AFL-X, Cox's last good game, and the windsock at Windy Hill. Also, i agree with your commentary on the issue of racial vilification. This too has rightly joined that X-graveyard: It was always morally repugnant but now, rightly, it is also illegal. Often, legal changes do have a positive impact in the community.
Love your work lads. The world is a completely different place than it was. People being persecuted for things that were at the time common, is a shining example of today's culture. People playing the victim, everyone has a voice to be heard rightly or wrongly. So many divisive issues and political correctness is muddying the water.
Agree and this is the point we were trying to make. Unlike Coyote who feels we were dismissive of the seriousness of the allegations (which we were most definitely not), we are trying to highlight that racism in the game in those days was an unfortunate reality.
The way you discussed these allegations was a little disappointing and insensitive. It comes across as somewhat dismissive, especially whenever Smokin’ Joe would interrupt to add commentary. To be clear, I’m not accusing either of you of being supportive of racism or necessarily excusing it, all I’m saying is the tone was a bit off-kilter. I think both of you tried to inject humour to an uncomfortable situation in a way that diminished the seriousness of these allegations. I think going forward if either of you want to comment on this situation or similar situations in the future, having a pre-prepared script or statement will serve you well.
Think you're looking for a villain where none exists. Completely disagree with your take on our commentary and at no stage did we try to make light of a serious matter. If you are familiar with our channel you would be well aware of our history in rejecting all matters racism generally but certainly in the AFL. Appreciate your comment but have to respectfully disagree with your opinion.There will be no formal script now or in the future.
Let's be honest, we will beat the Hawks. If we don't, I'll be moving to Czechia! My 2 cents on Krakouer, no new news here. We've known what happened in bygone eras and they will need proof to blame Sheedy. I personally think they need the cash and piggybacking off the current victimhood in Oz and around the world.
@@JF-oz3mvI do recall something like that. Harvs was no saint of course. Lets hope the boys can get up this week so that you are not cheering on the Chechnya Rebels this time next year.
Will be really upset if we don;t win round 1
makes about 80,000 of us.
Yeah coz it’s the only game we may win for the first 10 rounds
They’ll come good, every team has its day in the sun.
You guys crack me up without fail every time 😆😆
Glad we have some entertainment value. Thanks for watching.

That's great intel from the archives. Max Crow - we loved him.
Thanks for the podcast it was great very entertaining.
As always thanks Sam.

Raymond Burr was Ironside. 😊
you guys are funny as , love the content
Very decent of you to say so
Thanks
Why thank you kind sir. Will help us in to the Crypto market!!
@@absolutelyessendon call it my shout.
Hopefully another one so that you can both have a schooner 🥰
Keep up the good work lads. Haters are going to hate.
You know, you’re probably right. Thanks for the support
Cox looking particularly veiny this preseason I thought DT!
Pulsating veins….eewwww.
Great coverage as always. I believe the NRL went over there for something to do with a gambling deal. Looking forward to the real round 1 !!
With any luck they’ll stay there
Pulsechain guys, a layer 1 coin with a massive potential upside!
Top effort today gents looking forward to the hawks at the G
Hope it’s a big win for our boys too
Doubtful the Bombers win Round 1. I think the Hawks are a talented, young side that will get close to the 8. GWS will be premiers in 2024.
Losing Parish won’t help either. Just want to see some signs from the likes of Perkins, Jones, Cox, Tsatas etc
@@absolutelyessendon yes true. And effort. Please, just have a crack and keep your heads up. Win, lose or draw it's all we ask.

Some excellent points and thanks for joining the discussion.

Rowell didn’t break the record Paul Salmon still holds the record at 22
Our sources are clearly no good. Thanks for the heads up!
Quad cam 😂
Cant see ya's making the 8
It’s going to be a tough year but never say never.

Spcaecoyote, the wolrd is moving on from your line of thinking. Thankfully
Spacecoyote or space cadet?
Q has always said that it's always been the chemtrails since we moved from Windy Hill.
Q may be onto something

BTW - I think one of the Krakouer's that punched Mark Harvey if you recall?

Won't make the 8.
Seemingly not
