Episode 10
Former captain and dual premiership player, Don McKenzie, recalls his 266-game career at Essendon, where he defied an early knock-back to become one of the club's finest ruckmen and servants. Don also discusses his leading role in the league-altering player strike, in 1970, that saw him stripped of the captaincy but helped set in motion the establishment of the AFL Players' Association.
