Episode 54 - 1940 - a podcast by kicktokick

Here it is, a new decade, we are in the 40's!!!!! 

Thanks for your patience, with everything happening it was a hard episode to put together, Anna and Tim host, but then you will here Charlie littered throughout, as we added him in later (We also used Ringr for the first time). It is a bit of a hodge-podge, but we really want to keep footy stories alive at the moment!

So, 1940.... With many players rushing to help out and join the war effort, some teams struggle to cope. The VFL introduce an interesting idea to help raise money for the soldiers. Essendon have a new nickname, a new coach and a new game-plan, look for them to be on the up and up after years in the doldrums. Melbourne go from strength to strength but also gain an unwanted record. The race for the top 4 heats up in the last few rounds and Collingwood struggle without Ron Todd and seem to be in free-fall, but there is more controversy to come for them.

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