Willy CYs took 36 years to move from F Grade to Premier B. A record?

You tell me and I'll correct you. Your quip is hollow.

You poor boy. That seems like a degrading jab from someone with a grudge. What you posted is a very inaccurate statement, Poorboy. Some, but not all, APS schools offer football scholarships. I can list the APS colleges that don't provide your free scholarships. You name yours, and I'll name...

This list hasn't included former Ammo players who are now fixtures at their VFL clubs.

Interesting: - The VAFA remains a robust recruiting source for the elite pathway, with the exciting news that 100 Ammo players have been signed by VFL clubs for 2025. Coburg is just behind the Kangas with 10 VAFA signings, while Richmond and Port Melbourne have 9, Williamstown 8, and Carlton...

There’s a practice game in a few weeks. I’m not exactly sure when; the CYs are playing against Cheltenham. I’m also not sure where it will be. The result should be interesting.

Willy had 8 teams in the Ammos last year!

I was referring to your nasty comment about the Borough. (Very) not necessary. All of us former VFA followers/supporters must support, not denigrate, our teams, especially a club that was not only founded in 1874 but has an extremely rich history. I stand to be corrected, but Port Melbourne...

As a once dedicated Seagull supporter, and with the demise of the VFA, I have always hoped that the former VFA clubs would stick together. Aussie Nick, your post is disappointing.

Glen Huntly Football Club - Founded in 1909, this club was one of the earliest foundations that contributed to the eventual formation of Glen Eira. Glen Huntly Amateurs - Established in 1933, this club merged with Glen Huntly FC in 1974, further solidifying the foundation of what would become...

It has, however scrambled like a bowl of spaghetti. Ditto Prahran.

You are extremely very correct, Bedders. VFA football fans were mostly locals, cheering for and supporting their clubs, many of which included many local players representing their suburbs. The then VFL envied the VFA’s success, strong suburban support, and their clever shift to Sunday...

Ormond Football Club During World War I (WWI), men primarily, volunteered for military service alongside their friends from their hometowns. For instance, most local boys from Williamstown chose to join the Navy, although many also volunteered for the Army. In 1914, Ormond was crisscrossed...

BUT, they have a nice ground and a very pretty guernsey.

Is that money into Port or the AFL, and from whom, or money out from Port, the home team or the visitors? Please clarify who gets what.
