I am 75yo and played in this era but it was only the big men that hit us behind the play;cos they could and they thought they were tough.I was 5’8”” and 63 kilo and I had my jaw broken by a sniper from behind and now have no teeth; just heard my name mentioned haha😊
I think that some of the footage at about 6:00 could be from an infamous Carlton-Collingwood match in about 1970 in which eight players (four from each side) were reported, but all the charges had to be thrown out on a technicality because the umpire didn't lodge his report with the VFL by the formal deadline.
Notice how, even with hits 10x bigger then today the guys get back up unless knocked out. Today’s players would be down for 15min, sad. Don’t miss the cheap stiff arm stuff, do miss the hard legal bump. Never should have been taken out of the game.

For Melbourne?
Aaah…the ‘good’ ole days.😳
Yep back in the day "went to the fights,and a football game broke out "😂😂
Couldn't imagine Bruce McAvaney commentating in this era
And in the midst of the boxing occasionally they played football.
only if it was like this today

Great history of Carlton v Collingwood. KB throwing the elbow...if I hadn't have seen it I wouldn't have believed it
Can't believe how much the umps used to get involved. Amazing none of them got hurt

Some of them are big hits, but the amount of dramatic acting is up there with ⚽️.
You don't see the police getting on the field now days to break up the fight👍
In the seventies. Player gets knocked out, umpire calls play on
In 2023. Player gets breathed on, suspended for six weeks 👍👎👍👎
gotta love mike Williamson someone ought fix him right up after Mal Brown punching everyone in sight😄
holy fuck
They did not muck around.
Nothing tough about it. Pure assault.
Killjoy😀
Good to see their heritage coming through.Such a waste sending all those type people to such a beautiful country.
go away petal
Why was it called footy back then and not elbow?
Pretty sure that’s an angry mob…….and the crowd is there too 🤔
when the ruler punches out the player twice as big and young you know this game was great
Dirty Carlton
Dirty everyone
some of it is just bad acting
BS
Fuckin head shots. Holy crap.
Makes it interesting
