The 1981 Season, Part 2! There are new coaches at Carlton, Fitzroy and Essendon, all having successful seasons. We talk about Fitzroys rise up the ladder again, The Sheedy led Bombers go on an amazing streak, and the Cats fly in a new recruit by helicopter and the the Blues do what they need with a couple of interstate recruits.

The Kick to Kick Podcast aims to go through each year of the VFL/AFL season and bring out the stories, highlights, winners, and losers of days gone by.
