A compendium of football events and anecdotes. Almost all are related to the AFL/VFL or VFA competitions covering the years 1858-2008. Many are retellings of famous incidents, matches or amusing items of footy folklore which will be familiar to avid footy fans. Contains 324 stories. The stories covering the early years of football are less well known and consequently of particular interest.
