No Headstone
For Phil Matson
Today is the 20th an-
niversary of the death
of Phil Matson.
But any football fan who
went in search of the grave
of the great ruckman and
coach at Karrakatta would
have a hard job finding it.
Although Matson's name
will live forever in football
history, his grave ts without
a headstone.
Carbine's Jockey
Recently headstone was
secured for the grave of
jockey Bob Ramage, rider
of Carbine in his 1890 Mel-
bourne Cup win.
It is not unlikely that
football - bodies for whom
Phil Matson proved such a
drawcard will make a simi-
lar gesture.
