2.22: "One step closer..." ft. Ken Sheldon
A finals win! Unbelievable scenes on Saturday evening as the St Kilda Football Club recorded their first AFL Finals victory since 2010, defeating the Western Bulldogs by 3-points in a cliffhanger at the GABBA. While it was a nervy few minutes, the Saints held on for a famous victory. A Semi Final awaits against Richmond as the 2020 AFL Season continues for at least one more week...
In an eerily similar story to the 2020 Saints, a former Carlton premiership player took over the coaching reigns at Moorabbin in 1990, the following year leading St Kilda FC to their first finals campaign in 18 years. Ken Sheldon joins us on Unpluggered to chat about his time at the Saints as both a player and coach, and what it meant to take the football club on that memorable AFL Finals journey.
