In the 1953 episode, we discuss a big Father-Son selection who makes their debut. StKilda’s season is derailed by injury and unfortunate player actions. One of our favorites is back at South Melbourne. Footscray, in their up year, gets the win they have been craving for soooooo long. Fitzroy managed to just avoid an embarrassing scoreline and there is an unfortunate number of off-field incidents that affected different teams. All this and more....

After 38 years a Collingwood coach and 47 years there (as player or coach) Jock McHale finally retired (see our 1949 episode).
We thought it fitting to wrap up his career by having a discussion with the author of the Jock McHale book, Glenn McFarlane.

On the 1949 episode, we meet the man behind the medal, John Coleman at Essendon. The Lakeside pennant this year has a bit of extra bite! Geelong start to show some real promise, while we have an interesting top of the table leader at the end of the home and away season. Norm Smith has his first taste of coaching, while Jock McHale has his last. We say goodbye to one of the legends of the game, And Carlton continues their odd/ even season rise and fall. All this and so much more after…
