"I used to love playing for Barassi, he used to reach inside and wrench your inner man around a bit sometimes, but he always knew how to get the best out of his players" - Crackers Keenan Thanks Ron for everything you gave to the game which you contributed more to than anyone else ever before or since and putting my Blues on course to its greatest period of success ever.
Australias greatest legend, even more than Ned! Goodonya Ron, those kicks at the Arlington st park on Sundays sure did inspire at least one kid. Thanks mate!
Amazing how their talking about the growing professionalism of the game as a negative. What would they say about today? On another hand. Hate it when today’s generations say it’s only been professional today. Massive disrespect to how past legends approached the game
Barassi was very dignified in pointing out to the pompous intellectual that his family had been here since 1854 (not to mention his dad was a war hero).
Barassi was one of the greats. Phillip Adams was a complete tosser and he completely spoiled what could have been a great show with his ridiculous, arrogant crap
Yep, Adams, the original self-superior woke know nothing champagne socialist loser. Nauseating. Comparatively, Adams was just a total nobody. Barassi was an amazing human being.
