Die-hard Fitzroy supporter, once the bears, nothing ever but the don't care bears!

I remember this game well. Probably one of Adelaide's most demoralising losses and the beginning of the end (although he'd only just started) for Robert Shaw.

Garry Wilson - what a star!

Quick point, narrator. How about doing a spot of research and naming interstate clubs? Barry Cable went home to WA to "win another club award". The club is called Perth. Show some respect and name it. When Malcolm Blight was mentioned, it's stated he arrived at North Melbourne from SA after playing club football there. The club is called Woodville.

He missed one He wore 31 played for Melbourne & Carlton !

love the old dude with the PIPE. 🔥FANTASTIC!! 👌🏻

I hate Kevin. BARTLETT he was absolutely the show off ., whst made it worse he was absolute champion

What the AFL did to Fitzroy can never be forgotten or forgiven.

A classic finals match from a great era of our game.

I want to know what was said at three-quarter time, changed the trajectory of the entire club 😲

Oooohhhhhhhhh WOODS!

Anzac day game

Dunstall????

The Mighty Roys at the Junction! Superboot bagging tons.Those were great days back in the 80s. R I P Matty Rendell

The car parks are now houses 😂

My earliest memories of Fitzroy were from the '78 season, from the Fitzroy vs. Hawthorn game at Princes Park. I remember my father telling me we beat Hawthorn twice that year, which wasn't an easy feat. Noticed a Brian Brown in the number 2 jumper. Heard his kid was quite good. 😉 Thank you for these videos.

Entertaining show 😂.❤ it.Great players.

D'you have the whole broadcast to upload please

Ian Stewart? In my top 5 players.

R.I.P RON BARASSI

Brilliant! Spectacular work.

Games from the 80s. Terrific. Many thanks for sharing.

Maybe one of the worst blow outs in history

cost the Tigers dearly at the end of the season when Fitzroy finished a game ahead of them to make the finals.

Great video I remember the game well I was 11 watching barracking very passionately for Fitzroy I was so glad when Fitzroy won v Adelaide I had a soft spot for Fitzroy growing up when they won which was rare in the mid 90s I was very pleased it made my week Let’s always remember Fitzroy great video

Brilliant, thanks for the game, so many memories of how the game WAS played!!!!!!!!!!!!

15:22

9:00 Ablett Snr playing on the wing. Neat left foot pass. Most complete footballer to play Aussie Rules.

I have this game.

Thank you so much for putting these up. Great memories. Win or lose, I'll always love the Roys. 😀👍

Welcome back!

Can you please upload richmond v south Melbourne round 12 1981 at Waverly francis bourke 300th game great last qtr fight back by richmond 22points down to win by 15points thanks to bartlett magic in the last qtr

I was at this game (as a neutral) and it was excellent, high quality & exciting, good skills, great atmosphere. Only 59k there, seemed like a lot more.

from memory this was released officially on vhs to purchase id be interested to know if any of the home and away games survived from that year

Awesome watch this Fitzroy and Bernie 👍

Bill Lokan 👍👍

They celebrated harder than Hawthorn did after winning the actual premiership

WFP😂

Absolutely Fantastic. Signal 1

Last time Fitzroy won anything of any significance

The Roys were good for usually 17-20,000 each game at the Junction. Excellent numbers for a smaller club. Incredibly good side from 1979-1986, playing at the Junction as home for most of that period. Would've loved to have been there as a youngster, just missed out by a few years unfortunately. Side not - How did the two cheer squads end up so close together here? 😆. Wouldve been dicey...!

Mad as a cut snake 😂😂😂

Some familiar faces in the rooms after the game - rare footage I reckon!

the 1991 finals!!!! There's your inability to win a fllag right there.

Outstanding, thanks for uploading.

Surprised Fitzroy didn’t go all the way.

Good camera work, better than today.

A different era; I miss it. I was there for the game and there was such good will for the Bears on that day. There was a sense that the club had suffered enough already. I wonder how differently senior coaches and teams would have done things now. Lester-Smith a reserves hack? Hardly. He was probably half-cut that day because nobody would pick him.

Leon Harris was such an underrated player.

There's one person missing from this list, that's Ron himself
