Norm Yemm RIP
Norm Yemm who was a well known actor in Homicide, The Sullivans, Number 96 and numerous other TV shows sadly passed away yesterday aged 81.
He also ran in the legendary Dandy Dollar Dash in the good old VFA days.
Norm also had a senior game with Port back in the late 50s.
Pretty sure his father played with Oakleigh in the late 20s and 30s and tasted premiership success with the Oaks.
The Ballarat FL has a 'Final Six', so I thought I'd compare it with the VFA's 'Final Six' of 1960.
Ballarat FL
Only top two get double chance.
Week 1, QF: 1v2. 1EF: 3v6. 2EF: 4v5. EF losers drop out.
Week 2, 2SF: winner 1EF v winner QF. 1SF: loser QF v winner 2SF.
Week 3, PF: loser 2SF v winner 1SF.

VFA 1960 (I did not attend these.)
Quarter finals, 3v6, 4v5, losers out.
1SF, winner 4v5 v winner 3v6, loser out.
