Postscript to this. That was the full extent of that altercation. but it was an amazing few seconds. Post-match - one of the other Barradine players from that match ventured into the Coonamble grandstand and went about entusiatically chatting with all and sundry in the stand, smoking cigarettes like a chimney, enthusiastclly shaking hands with all and sundry, even myslf, I think, his voice raspy and hoarse, and it seemed like he had a serious chest condition. He had to have been dying of cancer.
This is fucking pathetic. None of it 'grabs' me. I saw better stuff than this from the grand-stand in Coonamble, NSW, Coonamble Juniors versus Baradine Juniors, final round of minor premiership, 1976. Barradine couldn't field a full 13 - played with about 11 players the whole match and still scrambled a win. A straight left[or right] landed on the face of a Coonamble winger by a Barradine player, with a retaliatory left-right landed by the Coonamble player on the Barradine player's face.
Great days - I remember alot of the games from that time - good to revisit them , if you have any other old clips it'd be great to see them. Cheers Shane.
