The Cats had won a flag as recently as 1963 but the Tigers hadn't appeared in a Grand Final for 23 years. A brilliantly played, although controversial game, best remembered for Fred Swift's goal-saving mark in the final seconds.

Just my luck that the automatic TV program TV Eye did not engage for the 1967 flag and I missed the last 5 minutes of the 1969 Grand Final, despite putting 10 minutes overtime on the recorder. Ahhhhh!!!!!

These are the original ABC TV broadcasts now available digitally very late at night.
Did anyone get a copy they could upload?
 
Well done.

Last Sunday morning I watched an ABC2 documentary on Ray Davies.

It was brilliant.
