Howard's Last Innings - Tallyroom Spectators: Howard makes his concession speech after losing both the general election and his own seat of Bennelong. People in the National tallyroom in Canberra watch, triumphant or defeated. Like his cricketing idol, Don Bradman, Howard makes a duck in his last innings. In fact by losing his seat it's probably a golden pair.
