Glory & Fame: The Memories

1984/85 were great days for Essendon fans and you can re-live some of the great memories with re-runs of some fantastic vision and photos from yesteryear. We have started by putting together a photo gallery from 84/85, which you can click through to below. We also have excerpts of the post Grand Final editions of World of Sport as well as the recently aired Footy Flashback with Leigh Matthews and Tim Watson. All of this great vision has been made available thanks to Essendon’s community partner, Channel 7.
