Leigh Matthews is a football legend. But I bet his daughters wouldn't agree. They grew up pretty much without a dad, thanks to his obsession with the game. But was it all worth it? After so much work, what did he get? Well, Leigh got a stain on his career - all thanks to a punch he threw on Neville Bruns. It’s evil and you need to hear more about it!
Born on March 1, 1952, in Frankston, Victoria, Australia, Matthews started playing junior football at 12 in the Melbourne suburb of Chelsea. He grew up on a farm in Langwarrin, learning to play golf on the Frankston public course, which is now the city’s botanic gardens. But he always wanted to play football and play it at its highest level. According to him, he never had a time when he didn’t want to do that.
He would spend his time playing in paddocks, wearing a North Melbourne jumper with number 17, idolizing Allen Aylett, the North Melbourne great and future VFL president. On the matter, he said, "Strange, really, because the whole family barracked for Essendon. But I took a shine to North, I think because Langwarrin wore their colors."
When he was 10, the family moved to Chelsea, which is where his football career really took off. He became the captain of the Chelsea under-15s and quickly moved up to the seniors the following year. Thanks to his talent, Chelsea won the premiership, and Matthews was the competition’s leading goal-kicker. Zoned to Hawthorn, he made his debut at 17, and within three years, he had played in a VFL premiership, won the club’s best and fairest, and represented Victoria! It seemed like the sky was the limit for the young sportsman!
You can add the Bruns hit was in junk time when the game was over, and not only did he have a broken jaw but the roof of his mouth was broken too, dog act.
I really appreciate the random image’s of people that that have nothing to do with the story 😊
Life long Hawks supporter here. Bruns incident… Not Good…
You haven't got a good record. He is not the only one!
The AI voice is painful.
Not wrong.
Brunsy might keep his hands of kelvin Matthew’s wife next time
@@markuswilmes3694 : Really? The dirty sod!
Indeed sir
Bruns was one of many and all little fellows----
What's with the picture of the GWS player?
I liked Leigh Matthews as Collingwood coach
This sounds like a text to speech generator
Brutal thug.
Eat more soy.
@@iankearns774😅 & more tofu
Hit man
Mathew’s !!
*woman
AI much
That's not evil, just a mistake, we all make them.
Not like that...
@@wino5086 There was more than just footy going on that day. I have heard there was a payback going on over a private matter. You wouldn't king hit someone over nothing like that so may have truth in it.
@@iankearns774
No thanks - I don't king hit people from behind.
Not even the drunk driver who smirked when he got a non-custodial sentence for killing my fiancé.
Stoop to their level?
That's what Dahmer said, too
How many strange erelavant images do you have in this video.
Especially the ones of Matthews
THUG
Different era, you cant use todays standards on footy from 30 years ago. Even suburban and country footy was hard as fark, we all copped hits from behind play at times and occasionally dished it out. I saw one coming at me one day out of the corner of my eye one day as the final siren went in Shepparton, I moved my head but got a glancing blow. An all in ensued and about 10 players got reported, it was nasty stuff. That was back in about 1988 from memory. He was no more a thug than about 50 other VFL players he played against. Different times back then.

What have 'standards' got to do with 'decency'. Being on a field isn't 'fair-game-lunacy time'. Matthews simply had no control over his thug instincts. Praise him all you want, but not every player out there did what he did, only the brutal bullies with low self-worth did
That voice has to go
What's the relevance of the photos of Michael Roach, Harry McKay and others? Made viewing confusing and difficult to follow. Better left out. Talking about a 15yo and showing a man in his 40's. Who came up with that? Sorry but that was awful to watch. Great story tho.
