    Leigh Matthews is a football legend. But I bet his daughters wouldn't agree. They grew up pretty much without a dad, thanks to his obsession with the game. But was it all worth it? After so much work, what did he get? Well, Leigh got a stain on his career - all thanks to a punch he threw on Neville Bruns. It’s evil and you need to hear more about it!
    Born on March 1, 1952, in Frankston, Victoria, Australia, Matthews started playing junior football at 12 in the Melbourne suburb of Chelsea. He grew up on a farm in Langwarrin, learning to play golf on the Frankston public course, which is now the city’s botanic gardens. But he always wanted to play football and play it at its highest level. According to him, he never had a time when he didn’t want to do that.
    He would spend his time playing in paddocks, wearing a North Melbourne jumper with number 17, idolizing Allen Aylett, the North Melbourne great and future VFL president. On the matter, he said, "Strange, really, because the whole family barracked for Essendon. But I took a shine to North, I think because Langwarrin wore their colors."
    When he was 10, the family moved to Chelsea, which is where his football career really took off. He became the captain of the Chelsea under-15s and quickly moved up to the seniors the following year. Thanks to his talent, Chelsea won the premiership, and Matthews was the competition’s leading goal-kicker. Zoned to Hawthorn, he made his debut at 17, and within three years, he had played in a VFL premiership, won the club’s best and fairest, and represented Victoria! It seemed like the sky was the limit for the young sportsman!

    You can add the Bruns hit was in junk time when the game was over, and not only did he have a broken jaw but the roof of his mouth was broken too, dog act.

    Context matters..... Twas an ugly & violent match all day.....Bruns had been sniping both Plough & Tuck all day, while wacko Jacko had lost the plot entirely in the second quarter, in trying to knock out the entire Hawthorn back-line in bursts of insanity, with no self-control whatsoever....Trying to depict it as some isolated unprovoked instance is just plain untruth. Barney had his nose broken in retribution & copped his comeuppance there & then....He never whined but Bruns went running to the press.

      Different era, you cant use todays standards on footy from 30 years ago. Even suburban and country footy was hard as fark, we all copped hits from behind play at times and occasionally dished it out. I saw one coming at me one day out of the corner of my eye one day as the final siren went in Shepparton, I moved my head but got a glancing blow. An all in ensued and about 10 players got reported, it was nasty stuff. That was back in about 1988 from memory. He was no more a thug than about 50 other VFL players he played against. Different times back then.

      What have 'standards' got to do with 'decency'. Being on a field isn't 'fair-game-lunacy time'. Matthews simply had no control over his thug instincts. Praise him all you want, but not every player out there did what he did, only the brutal bullies with low self-worth did

    What's the relevance of the photos of Michael Roach, Harry McKay and others? Made viewing confusing and difficult to follow. Better left out. Talking about a 15yo and showing a man in his 40's. Who came up with that? Sorry but that was awful to watch. Great story tho.
