John Cahill request

Hi all. I have a mate who is a South supporter (and freely admits it!) and would like to know if any of you could suggest where he could find vision of John Cahills' infamous 3/4 time address at Alberton oval early last season. I know it was on ABC as I remember falling of the couch laughing at his "now who else is up foward?" address, and he thought maybe its on youtube or something. Please try to help this poor, poor man.
Thanks
RW&BB

Unfortunately this "great man" will be remembered as a senile old fool that could not remember his players name.

And I'm sorry, I thought it was obvious. Vision of the aforementioned address. I apologise that I can't write it in crayon for you!

First point incorrect.

Second point correct.

Only if you've only been interested in footy for less than 10 years and have no interest in the history of the game. I'd say the shoe fits.

Well bugger me for daring to have an opinion. I was completely unaware of the need for total conformity on this site. As a Centrals supporter for all of my 43 years I feel I am entitled to an opinion on what I saw as a less than distinguished end to an otherwise successful career, as at no point did I make any reference to his earlier work, only as to his final public forays.
Anyway, back to the reason for the intial request, I have googled it as suggested, and youtubed it and cannot locate the footage, so once again I ask for your help in locating the address.

Thankyou in conformity;

If it was on ABC and you can't get the footage online, I'd suggest purchasing the game.

alzheimers or not, South did win the game, didn't they? ... and by the way, Confucius is rarely wrong. ;)

Cahill won more matches in his time at South than Sampson has done with the side since, I wish he was coaching us still, we could hardly be any worse off than where we are currently sitting on the bottom of the ladder staring down the barrell of several spoons in a row.....

Cahill was an old school coach that coached the side "harshly" and he was leaned on by individuals in the board and told them to go shove it as a result, apparently its "harsh" not to hand out "best player" awards after 100pt beltings at the hands of the Sturt Football Club.

Cahill was the blowtorch that the SAFC needed to go through it, the result of the club not having the nerve to listen to him and go through the process has made us the laughing stock of the SANFL.
