Full Points Footy http://www.fullpointsfooty.net Introduction For most football devotees, clubs are the lenses through which they view the game, colouring and shaping their perception of it more than all other factors combined. To use another overblown metaphor, clubs are also the essential fabric out of which the rich, variegated tapestry of the game’s history has been woven. -

Our Part in Four-Minute Mile History
Our part in four-minute mile history Bruce McAvaney addressed a dinner in Melbourne recently, to commemorate Australian John Landy's first sub-four-minute mile and world record, run 50 years ago, six weeks after Roger Bannister first went under four. This is the transcript of his speech. "Here is the result of event No.9, the one mile: No. 41, R G Bannister, of the Amateur Athletic Association and formerly of Exeter and Merton Colleges, with a time that is a new meeting and track record, and which, subject to ratification, with be a new English native, British National, British all-comers, European, British Empire and World Record. The time is 3…." That's arguably the most famous cue, let alone understated announcement in athletics history…3 Minutes, 59.4 seconds! He was a formidable character, the announcer. Norris McWhirter died earlier this year, unfortunately just before the 50th anniversary of the first sub-four minute mile. McWhirter apparently had rehearsed assiduously the night before, in his bath, and it was through him that the BBC, the newsreel camera and most of the print media were present that day. McWhirter, and his twin Ross, who was gunned down in 1975 by the IRA, were joint founders and editors of the Guinness Book of Records. McWhirter had a sense of humour. Here in Melbourne at the 1956 Olympics, he told the story of a middle-aged Australian woman who, observing distressing scenes at the finish of the marathon exclaimed, "Cripes, how many qualify for the final?"… Back to Bannister, and the race: is it the sport's finest achievement? How does the 3.59.4 stack up with other athletic landmarks? Classics such as our own Ron Clarke's 27:39.4 in Oslo in 1965, a 35 second improvement on the previous mark. -

Old Geelong Football Club History
Old Geelong Football Club History Extra Notes for 1956: including the OGGFC and the Olympic Games Connection Since the 1956 notes were first posted on the Club website earlier in 2011, it was established that some information had been left out, and some more has come to hand since then, which enables us to publish some further notes. – Peter Lemon. ============================================================================= 1) 1956, of course, was the year when the Olympic Games were staged in Melbourne, in November. * Note apparently placed on the Club notice-board in early July: “Will anyone interested in carrying the OLYMPIC TORCH one mile between Albury & Melbourne on 21 November please sign below. Only three will be chosen from the VAFA and the elections will be by ballot. The only qualification for nominees is that they will be able to run 1 mile in 6 mins or under.” No-one from the Club got picked in the ballot, and on the subject of carrying torches of importance, closest we can get is the Club Secretary of 2004- 2010, and Reserves Premiership player of 2005 and 2007, Simon O’Brien (furthest on the right) who carried the torch during the Commonwealth Games Torch Relay in 2006. He has very kindly supplied us with a photo taken at the time, somewhere on the Bellarine Peninsula. (Actually he has been very good in supplying us with photos over the years – he also sent us one of him with the Cat’s Premiership Cup of 2007 back in 2007, but space precludes its publication.) * From OGGFC Notes of May 1956: “John Landy’s name adds lustre to the training list, but in the national interest he won’t be picked this season.” (John Landy did play a few games for the Club the following year. -

It has been not only an honour to lead this club to where it is today but, it was also a passion of mine to see this club evolve to where it is today. I am proud to say that we have had many successful milestones within our club from being the struggling Coburg Tigers, under the Richmond Football Clubs wing, to being the Stand Alone Coburg (Lions) Football Club which I hope will flourish into one of the largest clubs within the VFL and will also be a successful grand finalist. As I previously mentioned I have seen many faces come and go within our club and I would like to thank everyone who has been behind my endeavours for this club.
