1996 – Melbourne/Hawks merger situation – Garry and the players were told the club wouldn’t exist past 1996
The final match of the year vs. Hawks – the ‘merger game’ – Hawks won by 1 point
Vote in September, horrible time
Garry felt like Melbourne were selling their soul – but the only options were to merge, or to get Gutnik in
