The beautiful handshake between John Kennedy Senior and Allan Jeans just wonderful both sadly gone now but never ever forgotten!😂🤝
Jesse Sands well both would have a love of hawthorn as both won multiple premierships there
John Kennedy snr lost the vfl grannys in 1963 & 1975 + Allan jeans lost the granny with the saints 1965 & 1971 & with the hawks 1984, 1985 & 1987.
@@MisterPolitical1 Kennedy won it in 1961, 1971 & 1976.....Jeans in 1966, 1983, 1986 & 1989.
That's 14 Grand Finals for 7 Premierships between them.....Jeans is still the only Saints Premiership coach....The ledger is square I'd say.
@@alansimmonds9030 John Kennedy sr won with hawks in 1961, 1971 & 1976, & Allan Jeans won it with the saints in 1966 & Hawks in 1983, 1986 & 1989.
@@alansimmonds9030 John Kennedy sr is the best hawks coach ever better than clarko, jeans, parkin & joyce.
I was there to see my mighty Hawks win their second premiership, the only one I have witnessed. What a great day it was
They now have 13.
I hope someone picks up Robert Dickson's work and continues making these Grand Final stories as I think they are great and important documentaries of the game's history.
Agreed. I reckon 1997, 2005, 2009 and 2018 would make for great documentaries.
One of the greatest games ever played. Les Hawken and Bob Murray were both unlucky, Hawken carried an injury into the game and had to go off really early. Murray stuck it out for ages which is testament to his courage. Poor old Kevin Heath got flattened and the Herald Sun showed a pic of him being attended to by the trainers, but they said he was Leigh Matthews!
I always say if you want to watch something exciting and inspirational, watch this game of footy. But it's great to see some footage of the rooms afterwards in this doco. Scotty was absolutely spent, you'd never have known how much he gave from watching the game footage alone.
The toughest footballers to play the game, in my opinion. Although I was too young to remember this game, I have supported the Hawks from the 70s to present day as a current member, and personally played a lot of football throughout the 80s and to watch this doco was yet another eye opener to just how hard, passionate and skilled these players were. By no doubt the current game is littered with incredibly talented and elite athletes who are still a pleasure to watch, but it certainly has changed in many respects. I’m grateful to now live a few minutes walk to Glenferrie Oval and where lucky to meet Peter Hudson recently at a lunch here, and to this day he remains one of the most humble and inspiring gentlemen one can meet. Great video and to all involved in that era, be proud of the foundation you set for what is now a hugely successful national competition.
Don Scott probably inspired and motivated the rest of the Hawthorn players and they all lifted I've watched the final quarter of the 1971 Grand Final many times and from the moment that Leigh Matthews kicked that first goal All the Hawthorn players lifted!🙂🎽🏉🏟️
St Kilda. Forever
Peter Hudson is the GOAT of full forwards because he could kick goals when he was semi concussed. Most full forwards today couldn’t kick straight at full health.
fowards of today mostly gets out of bounds, scoring behinds & impatient
I recall him having two opponents on him at the same time. Just how good he was seems understated these days.
How he got those flat punts to go through the big sticks almost every time still remains one of the great mysteries.
When he was interviewed about not kicking that goal in 100 years of Australian football, I expected Hudson to be so bitter and pissed off. He just laughed, shrugged his soldiers and said “oh well, I guess it’s the way it goes!”
He knew that Bob Pratt had set the record in 21 games whereas Hudson played 24 games in 1971. It's fitting that it's tied.
@@sentimentalbloke185 that’s just what he said. He wasn’t bothered
Fantastic, thanks a lot for this. Don't think the full one was ever uploaded.
Peter Hudson averaged over 5 goals per game between 1967 to 1971 and he even kicked 110 goals in 1977 after being out of the VFL due to knee injuries. Four Coleman Medals (1968, 1970, 1971, 1977) 129 games 727 goals. The Hawks had three of the the league’s best coaches in John Kennedy(1960-63, 1967-76), David Parkin(1977-1980), and Allan Jeans(1981-1987, 1989-90).
Awesome 👏
How gorgeous is the woman @ 3:42 alongside Don Scott 😍🔥
Derek Richards she’d be a wrinkled granny now
So so close. Come on boys. Win another premiership. Before I die. I am. 51.
Steve Cini still lots of time
They Way the Saints are playing at the moment, you might get your wish.
Thank you for making this available.
Gee Kevin Neal acts like he never played in a premiership. He was in St Kilda’s 1966 one
Irony, Hudson had a stint on coaching staff at St. Kilda and Jeans went onto coaching Hawthorn.
Hudson even admitted it wouldn’t have been a real record as Pratt kicked his in less games
Still a fine full-forward in an era of fine century-plus forwards!
@@pattomuso and humble too
Just by the body language of both teams as they ran out you can tell that something was about to go down.
Had that same feeling in 1984 unfortunately, to our detriment.
brings back memories [mostly sad] how tough??
this was better than south sydney's last premiership in the 20th century
Paul Mateo yeah everyone remembers that 1970 one, but that one? Nothing interesting
@@sliat1981 at half time it was 1-0 over st george thanks to a drop goal
@@MisterPolitical1 nobody apart from St George fans cares about that.
Man I was brought up in the wrong era
Ahh Australia dressing like it's still 1965. The intro announcer sounds like 1949
