- Summary:
-
"If Jack Broadstock didn't exist, a novelist would have invented him. He was an Australian footballer of rare ability and originality described by Jack Dyer as 'the most talented player he had seen'. Success followed him through three states and multiple competitions. Broadstock was also a rogue whose involvement in criminal activity made his life a shadowy yet fascinating affair. This book charts his rise to the heights of VFL and SANFL glory and the lifestyle one judge described as a 'descent into hell'. These are the trials of Jack Broadstock." -- Google Books.
