Between the Flags: Making Sense of 57 Years of Heartache
Ian Munro
Between the Flags tracks the Melbourne Demon’s demise from a once-dominant powerhouse in the VFL competition to a straggler merely making up the numbers, while also plotting the club’s attempts to restore its fortunes ahead of their 2021 drought breaking premiership.
The result of hours of painstaking research and interviews with dozens of former Melbourne players and officials, as well as Victorian football identities from other clubs, the book recalls the club’s golden era and reveals the changes that brought Melbourne undone, including an unprecedented analysis of how the zoning of country districts in 1967 helped to transform the VFL competition, advantaging some clubs at the expense of others.
