A true testament to the Don’s era of success in the 60’s, Coley’s Champs provides a fantastic insight into the inner sanctum of Essendon through the eyes of those that lived it.
Curated by Michael Kearney & Phil Hoey, the book is one for any football lover.
Wanting their stories to be told forever, Kearney and Hoey have created a detailed recount of the era, complete with imagery and firsthand recollections of the time by past players.
On top of this, the book also contains testimonies from opposition players and their experiences facing the Coley lead Essendon Bombers.
Taking a more conversational approach, Coley’s Champs allows the reader to truly understand the successful era through the player’s very own words.
Their stories showcase a time in which mateship and comradery was key to their on-field success.
