ANZAC Day ~ Head to Head & Medallists

[piedys]

Before the start of the 2011 ANZAC Day match, the AFL presented retrospective ANZAC Medals to their intended recipients for all of the matches prior to the introduction of the Medal in 2000. One of the 5 Keily & myself have been lucky enough to be at (4 wins and the draw)

Yeah, knew it was a good decade ago... I do recall the players being interviewed about the belated awards, and the humble responses.

And you were at the inaugural 1995 draw?
Did you get in early or sheepdog your way through lol?
