How do you offset the pain of the release of a book you co-wrote about Collingwood winning a premiership? It’s hard, but wearing a Doggies shirt & cap helps, albeit in the tiniest of ways. Fine words in here written by @DanEddyBooks35 + Peter Di Sisto. Other words by me. OUT NOW!

He missed the last 5-6 games at least of the 1983 season to be on that tour & almost certainly cost himself the Magarey Medal. Finished 4 votes behind the winner with two umpires voting each game at that time, so you’d back him to get 4-5 votes in a third of the season to win it.

Congratulations to @DanEddyBooks35 on the launch this morning of his book ‘Brilliance and Brutality’, covering the rivalry of @CarltonFC and @Richmond_FC across the Grand Finals of 1969, 1972 & 1973.
Between 1967-74, the Blues & Tigers won 7 of the 8 VFL Grand Finals of the era.
