How’s the jumper clash

beating Port nothing sweeter

Imagine trying to mark those floating flat punts … 😵

I live in Frankston but 1987 was a long long long time ago

Will Be And Will Always Be My Hero .. Rest Easy Fabulous The World Was A Better Place With You In It ..

I played junior footy for Springvale, we could go and watch the seniors play in the VFA for free (all kids got in free), was great fun with a group of mates.

Haha! Once a flog always a flog….. Weak as piss at the end in his interview after his players bust their ass trying to win. Instead of blaming your players, blame yourself for being assholed from the ground BT.

What is VFA?

Before the afl stuffed the game right up with $20 chips at games

WOW have a look at the crowd there was nobody there that was 31 years ago. The VFA has been dead for over 3 decades. The AFL has crushed the SANFL, WAFL and VFA.

Great to see the North Hobart ground in its heyday. Can remember it being a showery and FREEZING day this game was played. Interesting to see the skeleton of the Doug Plaister Stand still being built in the background behind Terry Wheeler at half time, that replaced the old Letitia Street Stand that got burnt down the year before.

Is there anymore highlights of this game ?

Awesome footage mate! Out of curiosity, have you ever come across footage of the 1997 reserves grand final? This remains our most recent premiership so it'd be awesome to see even some fragments of it. Cheers and great work again!

Big crowds in those days;I played in the 1970 GF and I think the crowd was about 25,000 and most spectators had to stand…the old Junction oval😂

2.25 Yeah 3 touches, that's a great grab😆AAAHH footy in the the 80s 👍👍

How much better is the commentary as well as the flow of the game compared to it now!

My goodness .... Doug Barwick headbutted the Port player at 33:43!!! That should be 6 weeks!

Hey love the videos, do you have any idea of how i could watch the 1994 VFA round 9 Oakleigh vs Port Melbourne game? Just trying to find it as my Dad played that game and it would be a big help, thanks

What a great interview. ❤❤❤❤ it.Great to play at that level.

37:56

Footy when it was great, before the AFL slowly stole our game from us

Amphetamines won’t increase your performance, it might be ok for 30 minutes of football, after that your heart can go into arrest, you can end up in an ambulance.

Good direct football, not like the back and forth keep your hands off football of today.

This is a much bigger crowd than the 4k that attended the SUNS VS NTH 2023 AFL Match. Tasmania want their own Team not Hawthorns and NTH'S junk matches.

Ian Rickman what a player even in heavy conditions beautiful kick for goal

Redlegs kicked straight game was over they atoned in the Granny

Keckovich like listening to a funeral service

Beauty of a goal for Miccy Barlow

Can't help but notice the CUB slo Mo replays are a lot clearer than the current AFL arc vision...

Those were the days

👍

Late Great Trevor Barker

BT stood for big titties

great standard. thanks for posting.

Colour clash

Where did you source this game from? Trying to get the 96,97,98 and 01 gfs

Great stuff. Where do you source the full games from?

Rest In Peace Fred

Did they mic up umpires 15 or so years before the afl?

I was at this game, still got the programme somewhere. Drew 10,073 people. IIRC after the Devils lost this game it caused a big stink at local level when four players in that VFL semi final team that lost to the Boroughs were allowed to play for North Hobart in the local SFL grand final a week later against Hobart and as you would expect, dominated, and the result was a 100+ point win to North Hobart. It was shortly after this that the wheels fell off for the Devils through bad administration from AFL Tas. Fans turned away in droves with the North Melbourne alignment, good local players missed out on opportunities, the North of the state was ignored and the whole thing became a circus.

WOW, people will actually watch a Tasmanian team in a Stadium without a roof. Who could have imagined? Last year the Gold Coast Suns played fellow Queensland Team the South Port Sharks in a Final there were only a few hundred there. After this amazing crowd for a reserves match Tassie had to wait until 2028 for their first season in the AFL. 25 Years of absolute madness.

Did they announce the crowd anywhere in the telecast?

WOW just have a look at the crowd for a reserves match. Why the AFL has waited another 20 years for Tasmania to get a Licensed and then another 5 years for them to play their match AFL match is a mystery. Tasmania should be playing in the AFL in 2024 not 2028. Roofed Stadium paid for by the Taxpayer or what they currently have it will be packed

Very timely upload!
