You are invited to lunch with former Geelong FC president, AFL Commissioner, writer, academic, and business consultant Colin Carter (who really needs no introduction) as he explains the research of nineteenth century footy which has led him to the conclusion that Geelong should be credited with seventeen premierships. He argues his case in his new book Football’s Forgotten Years.
He’s sure to talk about all things Geelong and the two decades of football too.
