Whilst enjoying a well-deserved end of season trip to Thailand with Mrs Wally, I've been reading a book which has sat on my shelf for a long time gathering dust, 'The Great Laurie Nash' by Ned Wallish. It gives a great insight into VFL/VFA & Tasmanian football in the 1930's & 40's & also cricket at all levels. It will also bring a tear to the eye of any old Camberwell supporters to read about how he was enticed away from South Melbourne in 1938 by a Dr Hartnett who appears to have been the equivalent of John Wren or Bill Dooley.
