VFA books

Is the Zebra Story published 1986 a good book?

I have Terry Keenans books

I now have most of Marc Fiddian's books, except the prahran, preston and oakleigh books as I cant find them in second hand shops.

If anyone knows Marc plese him for some reason the copywright to them doesnt seem to belong to him

Is the VFA a dirty secret

By jamesh July 28, 2012

Everyone I speak to says I am going to hit nothing but brick walls regarding the VFA history and any records - people either wont help or those that can are dead. Nobody can tell me where annual reports for the association are so I can only presume they are in someones garage and will die with them.

One historian suggested the VSFL may have even shut the VFA down out of spite.

Ken Gannon is dodging me like he is Doug Nicholls. Most club historians are past caring.... and shocked that someone from adelaide cares.

Wanted reel to reel (that plays Long Play) (borrow it for 2 weeks)

Wanted reel to reel (that plays Long Play)

Can anyone help here. I have several audio reels that were taped from channel 0 between 1972 and 75. The guy that taped these games did not have a video recorder so he taped them on reel to reel (audio only). I have got hold of a reel to reel recorder but unfortunately it does not play Long Play. I would only need to borrow it for 2 weeks.

Here are the list of games that need to be converted to CD format.
