My respect for Sam has grown.
This is one of the best things I've seen him do.
I know Im asking the wrong place but does anybody know of a tool to log back into an instagram account..?
I somehow forgot my password. I would appreciate any tricks you can give me

probably one of the few times we see John Newman and not "Sam Newman".
We all love Polly Farmer. My father was a lesser known player of that era. A very humble man who I miss to this day.
The likes of Farmer, Skilton, Barrassi, whitten etc mean little today but we’re legends to the communities who rallied around the clubs. They were not millionaire professionals like today. They worked real jobs and shared the trials of everyday life that we all do. A great generation of men is now leaving us. We miss them all.

Well said, mate!
RIP for your dear Dad.
Powerful words mate. Loved reading it
Yep, agreed. I remember those days with fondness.
Your father must have been a good player to play in that era.
IMHO no-one abused Polly Farmer in Victoria because they were simply in awe of his skills. Sam Newman's comment about receipts is so true. I went to a match at Geelong, when they were playing Melbourne. Polly was rucking, and Ron Barassi had presumably decided to try and upset him by staying down and grabbing at Farmer's groin. The next time Polly went up in the ruck, he took the ball in both hands and brought it straight down into Barassi's face. It sounded like a cannon shot. Barassi staggered away, end of tactic. It was beautiful, because I doubt whether it was even reportable as striking.

Awesome. What a great story!
@boganus699 If Polly Farmer's a total flog wtf are you?
Beautiful, sincere words...
What a great and measured man is Sam Newman.
Well said Sam!
In 1980 in Western Australia, my Work Mates Told Me Polly Farmer was the Best Ever Aussie Rules Player.
Chris Griffiths they're good judges!
Many rate Leigh Matthews ahead of Polly in 'best ever' discussions.
Mathews was a super player, no doubt, but he could be a dirty bastard. He ended Barrie Robran's career and I saw him flatten Barry Cable at Subiaco. Then there was the infamous Neville Bruns incident. Polly (by contrast) was scrupulously fair.
@@IsaacAsimov1992I Think Leigh is an Honorary QLDer because of His Success as Coach with the Lions.
Great Coach as well as Player.
@@chrisgriffiths2533 Agreed. Fantastic coaching record.
He cherished his beloved East Perth Royals and well said Sam you are a good man deep down
True legend of the game...
Kind ,excellent words Sam👍🏼
John Coleman is the only player I can think of to have played less games than Polly and have an equally long standing impact in the game. Polly sounds like he was the ultimate team player. From what Sam said, he always tried to bring youngsters into the game. He had a big heart.
God Bless Always. Love you Sammy xo
My best friend's mother was a Lancashire woman with no interest in Aussie rules. However, she stopped preparing the Sunday roast after Mass to watch Polly on World of Sport, sighed and said, "oh he's such a handsome man!" Her husband Bill, a Geelong fan, allowed her the brief infidelity of the mind because it was Polly.

Nice one. Yep, Poll was a fine figure of a man with good facial features -saw him a couple of times while out and about here in Perth. He was outstanding on radio footy panels (astute and incisive comments). Total self-belief in his ability to dominate a game.
4:55 'Consummate' Sam, as in; "He was the consummate team player." ^^ But honestly I love listening to these guys speak so intelligently and fairly about a wonderful man. RIP Polly Framer. Thank you sir.
Polly is the greatest AFL player of all time!
Wafl also
Nah
Sam is very eloquent
@tradie 4theladies You and I might not like what comes out of his mouth 90% of the time. But he's very good at articulating things. He also has an extremely wide range of vocabulary for an ex footballer (or for anyone for that matter)
@tradie 4theladies "Eloquent"; fluent or persuasive in speaking or writing.
Ha,ha.
David - he sure is. Part of what makes him interesting. If he spoke like Robbo, it would get boring real quick.
+David
I've always regarded Sam as being highly intelligent.
If he'd not been good at footy he could have chosen any number of professions and been super successful. Nice to see this side of him here.
Well spoken.Well said good Sir.
1:26 Western Australia does not have "Best and Fairest" recipients, we have "Fairest and Best" recipients.
Quick fly over to melb and let them know its breaking news 🤣🤣🤣
@@chrishughes1057 Why would I go to Melb' - to count fuckwits?
Yes
Because you Sand Gropers are backwards. Though your not as bad as those Prictorians with their eyes so close together.
@@Alternativeknow or is it because we value fairness above best by any means.
Who's backwards?
Little remembered fact: Farmer signed to play with Richmond in 1955 as a 20 year old. However, the Tigers couldn't win a clearance for him from East Perth and they already had the best ruckman in the league in Roy Wright, so the agreement lapsed. Farmer didn't come to Victoria until 1962 when some thought he might be past it.
"consummate
"
👍🏻
Same
Slightly of topic, but was Graham Farmer related to Jeff Farmer?
No
Jeff was asked this question. His response was 'distantly'.
He also wasn't a farmer
I like Sam Newman and the fact he says it as he sees it (You know the Australian Way) and for that many bag him. He always said he had respect for Polly and he was the next in line to take Geelong to where they were going. This racial abuse crap must end as we all get very emotional when we go to a game in the AFL. Adam Goodes drew his attention (abuse ) himself . Polly went about his game and used that to show how good he was.
@tradie 4theladies From people who actually saw him play and knew him and I have met Adam Goodes but not Polly but just like all history a great deal of it gets handed down .
I don't think Goodes did that, he did things to try and make society better by taking a stance and Australia hadn't matured enough at that stage to handle it. I know racism exists in other parts of the world, but there are subtle things that we are behind in.
@@Manseb I have met Goodes and prior to his outburst he was a good person and player but then ? He became like many others . He made very nasty comments about The ANZACS and he stirred up spectators at games with his spear throwing antics and if any white player did that what would have happened ??? He brought the game down that had made him a well paid (white fella $$$ ) star. The white guilt crap has gone too far I am from here and my father fought for the nation and had he not the Japanese would have over run all and slaughtered all and the Aborigines would have been first .
That's crazy talk. What do you mean what would happen if a white player shook a pretend spear at the crowd? How is that hypothetical of use or relevance?
And the Anzacs are stupid. If you want to do something to honour the memory of your ancestors then divorce yourself from stupid ideas that will get you killed in stupid wars like they were.
Were these feelings reciprocated ?
I remember Polly being interviewed on the Footy Show, he said John (he never called him Sam) was a very good player, and that he cost Geelong another Premiership, that was because Sam had severely damaged his Kidney in an earlier game and missed the Grand Final - which Polly thought Geelong would have clearly won.
What is the no racism meant to convey. Good indegenious people of sporting talent do not get racist comments?
I think its tge first time i have seen him on tv not say something racist
Sam gets a bit too wordy for his own good sometimes - consummate team player, not 'commensurate'
He should have stayed in private school
Trust a journalist to raise the "race" aspect while, at the same time, telling us that there was nothing concerning race to be talked about. If it's not there, why raise the topic? Some of these people just can't help themselves.
I thought sam was supposed to be racist
Whatever the lefties may have us believe I don't for one second believe that Sam is a racist.
It's not "Racist" to call someone a complete Flog of any nationality, colour or creed.
Why do you think players like Polly Farmer, Cyril Rioli, Buddy Franklin, Micheal Long, Gavin Wanganeen, Peter Matera, Shaun Burgoyne, Barry Cable, Stephen Micheal ETC..
These are the players that real AFL fans look up to as legends of the game.. Why?? Because they didn't act like "Flog's"
They are all held in high regard.. Judge people on the person they are. Not on where they come from or the colour of their skin..
Racism doesn't just mean insulting someone because of their skin colour. It can be systematic, institutional and complex. Attacking Adam Goodes for calling out and not tolerating racist chants by that girl, was itself racist, painting himself brown to mimic Nicky Winmar was racist and plenty of his comments sbout preferential treatment of indigenous players was racist.
Polly farmer played for geelong thats why you wont hear sam saying racist things about polly farmer
No, that's what Adam Goodes said Sam was. In actual fact Sam hates Goodes because he's a prick. Goodes just can't handle people disliking him.
Funny how people forgot how disrespectful he was to Adam Goodes. Absolute flog!
True well said mate
Sam who.
Polly would of been racially taunted his entire career on the field by guys like sam newman. Save the BS sam,we know how you really feel about indigenous people.
I can’t stand the man because he is such a misogynist but kudos to Sam Newman for this eloquent and honest remembrances of the great Polly Farmer.
how is he misogynist? please specify were he has demonstrated hate for women?
He is a racist hypocrite.
