THE HISTORY OF AUSTRALIAN TELEVISION

CLASSIC TV GUIDES

Saturday 25 September 1976 - MELBOURNE

The VFL Grand Final is played in Melbourne, but telecast into Melbourne is still restricted to evening replay telecasts.  Although HSV7's Football Marathon, featuring footage of previous Grand Finals, and telecast of the North Melbourne Breakfast, are already entrenched as Grand Final traditions.
