Station Hotel. They did show some footage and everyone loved it. Skilton spoke great. The story about ej Whitten and Skilts tossing the coin. Before the coin hit the ground, EJ pointed to the end with the wind. Result- Footscray wins. Four years later they both pointed to the end with a breeze before the coin hit the ground. EJ told Skilts I cheated you 4 years ago and let Skilts kick with the win. Results South wins the game. I have gone to a few of the past players luncheons in the last few years which has including speakers, Ron Barassi, Rex Hunt, Crackers Keenan and the Chimp Bobby Skilton. Ayres speaks very well and was impressed with the day.
