Spotted on C31 Local Footy Show was Mrs Blackrocker on the Annual Puffing Billy Footy day.
Good story as per usual. Mrs Blackrocker was wearing the famous zebra scarf !!!
Another good story was the 125 year old Frankston Bombers FC. This was the original Frankston FC and when Frankston decided to join the VFA there was a split with the Frankston Bombers continuing in the MPFL where a breakaway Frankston Dolphins was formed and joined the VFA.

The way the Frankston team entered the VFA had a lasting effect on their ability to get the Frankston footy community behind them as the Frankston Bombers had a lot of support.
I think the Frankston Bombers still have a very good support base. At a recent GF they packed the Frankston Oval to the rafters where they won a flag a couple of seasons ago.
In reply to I think the Frankston Bombers by vfa
Yep its a pity that Frankston was affected so badly for many years because if the Frankston Bombers were the team that had actually entered I feel Frankston would have been a powerhouse VFA team very early on.
There was a hatred between the two clubs for a long time that split the Frankston community and probibily still lingers on a bit.
You'd be suprised how many clubs on the peninsula don't/didn't have a great love of Frankston...in the 80's it was very prevalent...I was on the committe of a local Cricket Club and the local football club absolutely hated them..I knew a guy who was a coach at Mt Eliza and the same feeling was there...it may have changed nowadays....
