RIP Ronald Dale Barassi - the title of the Larry Writer book on the St. George Rugby League Club's 11 Premierships in a row sum up the great man perfectly........."Never Before, Never Again"........
He coach the biggest comeback in a grand final ( Carlton v Collingwood 44 points at half time behind to win by 10 points in 1970) and North Melbourne first ever premiership in 1975. They were so bad a friend of mine from state school pretended to support the bombers in the early 70s who weren't to good anyway at that time and when North came good he showed he supported North Melbourne. When I asked him why he said he was to embarrassed to say he supported North. That's how bad they were before Barrassi went there.
A great coach who created a very good football team. More than half of the players in this GF were North players when they won the Spoon before Barassi was appointed.
What was John Rantle's number, please???? Do you have any photos, or footage of this man, who has been acclaimed as a major part of this club, and this win??????

Viva the legend Ron Barassi!
Barassi’s greatest achievement… getting a flag for North Melbourne . And another one two years later! Probably should’ve won in 1978 too.

Gosh he was good
In due respect they should won in 78 with side the roos had
