The Winners

The Winners, currently known as The Winners Rebooted is a long running Australian television series that shows highlights of Australian rules football matches.

Original show (1970s and 1980s)

The original version was broadcast during the late 1970s to late 1980s on the ABC on Sunday mornings. It was normally hosted by Drew Morphett with a panel consisting of former players and pundits. Two matches from the previous day's Victorian Football League (VFL) fixtures would be screened and the panel would speculate about the games along with the league ladder and the goal, mark and play of the day. The format of the show was comprehensive, yet devoted mainly to matters on the field. Today it appears simplistic when compared with modern football's more saturated and market driven media coverage.

New show (2000-2012)

A new version of The Winners returned on the Fox Footy Channel in 2002, hosted by Clinton Grybas, showing highlights of all eight AFL games from the weekend in a one-hour show. From 2007 to 2011, it was shown on Fox Sports on the Monday night following the round. In 2012, the show moved to Fox Footy channel.

My Way (1973 film)

My Way (also known as The Winners) is a 1973 South African drama film directed by Emil Nofal and Roy Sargent and starring Joe Stewardson, Richard Loring, Marie Du Toit and Tony Jay. It was followed by a sequel My Way II in 1977.

    Go For Gold

    by: The Winners

    We believe that winnings come with attitude and heart
    Determination let it bring us through.
    The team that has the power to compete
    Even in the moment of defeat.
    Go for gold in South Korea
    go for gold in '88
    There's a pinacle for climbing down in Seoul the treasure waits.
    And there's metal on the mountain for the team that never stops
    It's the dream for every sportsman who is reching for the top.
    Hey
    go for gold and we're going for the metal
    Till we're standing in the middle
    We're singing hey ja
    go for gold
    put the pedal to the metal
    Till we're standing in the middle
    We're singing hey ja
    hey ja
    go for gold!
    The path is long and winding and it's easy to forget
    There's a winner and loser every game.
    We're playing for each other and we're playing for the fans
    They're always there to give the team a hand.
    Go for gold in South Korea
    go for gold in '88
