Chair:            John Harms
Panellists:    Warwick Hadfield, Adam McNicol, Karen Viggers


There is sports reporting, sports commentary, and, with a bit more of a flourish, Sports Literature. Not only can the players become ‘Legends’, but the best writers can also scale the heights of legend too.

John Harms, writer, broadcaster and editor of The Footy Almanac which attracts sports lovers, writers and historians with its thought-provoking articles, is reaching legend status.
 
So too is Adam McNicol for his thoughtful sports biographies.

Karen Viggers, who points out in her novel ‘Sidelines’, that the real sporting dramas are not always on the field, could decide that there are too many anti-heroes.
 
Warwick Hadfield's 28 years of sports reporting on the ABC was recently celebrated when he was described as a legend.

These panellists are privy to the inside information on the sports people we admire and cheer for, and can help us decide whether this is really a good idea.

This session is included in the Gold and Silver Festival Passes.
