McAdam and Winmar's sublime skills in 'Winmar's stand' game | On This Day | 1993 | AFL

It's a day that means so much more than football, the day Nicky Winmar pointed at his skin and stood up against racism on April 17, 1993.
In the game itself, an inspired Gilbert McAdam and Nicky Winmar helped St Kilda to a win over Collingwood at Victoria Park for the first time in 17 years.

Didn't know how good mcadam was!!

[@dozerboy0760]

I never knew who Gilbert Mcadam was until he was commentating, and didn’t think much of him as a previous player. After watching this, no joke, I’m surprised he didn’t win a Brownlow!

[@Detective313]

He was very inconsistent. His brother Adrian McAdam played for North at the same time, I still remember having their footy stickers in the early 90s

Won the SANFL equivalent: Magarey Medal

McAdam's evasion is unreal

[@tonybrown9779]

Great reminder of their silky skills. A few frees to both missed at 0:18, 0:20 & 1:25 but they just got on with the job. McAdam absolute class at 2 clubs something often forgotten. Would love to see the Saints do some damage this year.

[@petalandman3573]

How good. Was the game call before Eddie M started screaming in our ears?

[@notkimjong-un3019]

How were those 2 tackles in a row not holding the ball. Absolute stars mcadam and winmar were.

[@TheCleaner76]

Wow I forgot how good McAdam was

[@-o-ntboy8979]

They both chopped it that day.!

[@muaythaiisfun4404]

Great to stand up to racism

[@keraptisblackrazor2658]

Just wondering why McAdam's goal wasn't goal of the year. Then I checked the year, oh yeah Michael Long had a good one that year lol.

[@Whoknowsuknow]

McAdam should've ended up a better player than he was.

[@MarkManila-ln1mt]

They was called names when they run out so they showed them by playing football 💪

[@Swenser]

Lots of pics of Winmar's famous inspiring pic. But I'm looking for video footage. Anyone know where I can view it?

[@michaellivingston72]

There is no known footage, just the pics

[@briansergeant]

7 must’ve went to a commercial break as you do when after a goal is scored. Probably switched off the cameras as well thus missing out on a iconic moment in footy in motion.

[@triatbenbow8007]

@@michaellivingston72 I think it was just a photographer in the right place.

[@fincarosa]

It was after the final siren. No video of it just the photos

[@huonbyrne-ockerby852]

Didn't even show his stand tho

[@athlonen]

It was already said that there was no video footage of Winmar pulling up his guernsey and pointing to his skin, so all that there is are the stills which are already known.
