Something you hardly see in the modern era of footy. The testimonial. I remember standing around outside the players entrance with my autograph book for many seasons in my early teens, just me and some other snotty nosed kid getting autographs at every home (and reserve) game. When the big names came to play in testimonials there would be about 30 of us seeking out the stars.
I remember some but I know I’m missing some as well.
