Bill Garth Yep! Scott and Jarden signed autographs after the game.They sat in the middle of the ground and literally hundreds of kids clustered around them. I got both their autographs but sadly,somenone chucked them out long ago.Scott is left backrow and Jarden is third from the right.

Peter RobertsonI had the programme with a lot of signatures but gave it to the guy who started up the Muesum at Lancaster park. Whoknows6 where it is now

Heather Newby Point of interest is that the player listed as Nicholas was actually Nicholls and he was the son of the great Mark Nicholls,the best 1st five we ever had. That is when this game was played.
