This stuff is priceless. Thank goodness for the moving picture and for those with the foresight to preserve these historic documents.

What a great docco. It's interesting to see how society was, compared to today. So many suits, shirts, ties, just to go to the football. People gave a damn what they looked like in public. And people seems to speak better back then. Now, every sentence starts with "so" and every third word is "like"

Saints were favourites but Essendon was experience because the latter won their 11th premiership flag 3 years prior.

@J G There isnt even 240 countries on this earth. Soccer hated in australia, usa, new zealand, canada, etc etc etc. And they are the countries with the highest standard of living. So stick your 3rd world game where it fits.

No such thing those days. They had a coin toss to decide black/white shorts & pretty sure for which rooms too.

Saints wore white shorts because there's white in the middle of their guernsey & the dons wear black shorts to match their guernsey.
