1977 R2 v Hawthorn – Tigers Have It On A String

29/05/2014 By Chris 2 Comments

Robert Lamb and Noel Carter catch the eye here. I don’t remember Lamb at all but he top scored in this match. Jim Jess pulls down a massive pack mark to seal it. Straight through the hi-diddle-diddle, goal umpy gives it only one finger then quickly corrects himself. I love to see the old goal umps lean right back, stick out their guts and pump their arms. A bit of showmanship. Hudson is in his comeback for Hawthorn – comes out in the last quarter in a short sleeve jumper No 54. Another highlight – Drew sounds like he’s come to work with his dad on a student-free day.

    Question for oldies – Robert Lamb missed the 73 Grand Final. Injured, suspended or dropped? Only had 2 disposals in the Prelim v Collingwood so likely injured I suppose or had a Barry Crocker.
