This was fun. Now to the GF…
The Coodabeen Champions may have retired from radio, but the Footy institution isn’t done yet! The group are keen to perform at the 2024 AFL Grand Final at the MCG and they have the support of Robert ā€˜Dipper’ DiPierdomenico and Dermott Brereton!

How fitting. The last moments of the @Coodabeens final ever radio program ended with them all singing the iconic footy song, written by one of their own - @gregchampion 😢

Thanks for all the kind words - it’s been lovely to read all your memories of 43 years of radio. But this isn’t goodbye, we’ll still be around. We’re still working out what actually is the thing about football …

@Coodabeens You asked on your podcast if there's any footage of a place kick. Here is a 'failed' attempt at one
It's incredibly rare to find footage of Gordon Strang (1931-36,38) playing for @Richmond_FC Even rarer to find footage of him doing a PLACE KICK! This from the 1931 Grand Final newsreel.

Glorious. Online for the first time ever, @gregchampion sings his lament about Ch7 losing the rights to Broadcom and the ABC. @Coodabeens
