FOOTBALL by Dave McNamara

Football by Dave McNamara

In the first decade of the 20th Century Dave McNamara was the biggest name in Victorian football. His career was brilliant and scandalised. He played in the years before the First World War when the game was being destabilised by corruption, gambling and in-fighting.In 1914 he made his much anticipated return from exile to play for St Kilda. On the eve of the season Dave McNamara wrote this book which is part memoir, part love letter and part defence of Australian Rules football.
