I was just down in the garage before trawling through some old containers when I came across this ripper. It contains our team of the century that was announced in 2000, and information on each player. Gave it a bit of a scroll through and it was released in 2001 and written by Garrie Hutchison. I had received it as a gift for Christmas that year if my memory serves me correctly. There are some fantastic articles and photographs in there from the historic moments of our club history, such as the 1970 Grand Final, right through til the 1999 Preliminary Final and so on. I'm sure there have been a few newer, more up-to-date publications released since but this one certainly is a gem. A great read and a must for any fan.

Anyone else here own it?

Always thought the best thing about it was it was made before the dark period, so the book is just littered with success and success only :lol:

The club would have to have some copies wouldn't they? Or perhaps you could contact the publisher?

Lothian Books

To find any book all you need is its ISBN, which in this case is 0734403496

http://catalogue.nla.gov.au/Record/1365528/Holdings?

Take that ISBN to your local book shop, and they'll be able to get it for you (if it's still in print).

That said, I don't think it's still in print, although this website claims that it can get you a copy:
