1923 was a year that saw the Ladder change and league powerhouses fall. Reigning premiers, Fitzroy (AKA The Man's Team) continued to dominate, their bruising style of play seeing them comfortably take their place in the 4. Essendon continued to thrive in their new home of Windy Hill, and South Melbourne’s fortunes return. Some Carlton players cause a bit of a stir and down in sleepy Hollow, the pivots stumble upon a new nickname.

In our 1922 episode, we included an interview with author Robert Allen, in which he discussed his book Cazaly, The Legend. In this discussion we chatted about Cazaly, football, life in the 1920's, footy in Tassie, and many more topics. For the episode we had to cut the interview down to fit it in, however we thought the discussion was too good to not put out there, so here it is, our interview with Robert Allen in full. Enjoy.
