AFL Insider - by Craig Hill

When Do The 150 Years Of Australian Football Celebrations Begin?

October 10th 2008 01:45
Today is all about people asking when there will be trades made, while earlier in the week it was about people asking who had actually won for best mark and goal of the year.

Here is another question, what happened to the sesquicentennial for Australian football?

A couple of TV commercials, a Melbourne versus Geelong game that started early so people could watch a fire being lit in a Chinese stadium, putting a 1 in front of the 50, is that all there was?

Maybe they could have released a list of the 150 greatest Australian footballers, covering all the leagues during that time. That would have educated people about the history of the game, and brought needed recognition for the past stars of many leagues and teams.

Not the most important area to address for football, but it still would have been good if some effort was put in to make the sesquicentennial more memorable.
