Roy Cazaly is best remembered nationally for his spectacular high marking in Victorian football and the catchcry "Up there, Cazaly!" — later a WWII battle cry and hit song. But Tasmania claims him as one of its own: from 1928 he crossed Bass Strait to coach City in Launceston, then North Hobart and New Town over more than two decades, also representing Tasmania in interstate matches. He was later named coach of Tasmania's official "Team of the Century," inducted as an inaugural Legend of the Tasmanian Football Hall of Fame, and elevated to Icon status of the Tasmanian game. He settled permanently in Hobart, where he died in 1963.
This biography, by Robert Allen, tells the full story of the man behind the legend.
