Victorian Football Association History

V.F.A PRAHRAN FOOTBALL CLUB HIGHLIGHTS BETWEEN 1978 TO 1986

hi, i hope im not being a bother but i wondered if anyone could identify a badge / pin i have found? i dont know who else to ask and i have googled it with no success. i at first thought it was an old victorian football badge....it is a gold coloured bar brooch / pin with a black enameled shield in the middle. on the black shield is gold letters....large "V", medium "F" (inside the V) and a small wrapped around "C" (around the F). on the back is written K G LUKE MELB.

Is anyone able to tell me where this game was played, and anything else about the match itself?

Any snippets most welcome.

Does anyone know where abouts I would be able to buy one of the old Northcote VFA jumpers (green with the gold V)? I'm an old supporter from back in the day and I would love to get my hands on one of these.

Hi everyone,

I'm working on a history of Melbourne FC (http://wiki.fcmelbourne.com) and part of that is a list of all our players who have spent time at VFA/VFL clubs (http://wiki.fcmelbourne.com.au/tiki-index.php?page=VFA).

On the Sandringham website I discovered an unbelievable list of every player to have ever played for the Zebras and it was a big help in plugging some gaps. Does anyone know if any such lists exist for the other clubs? It's so much easier than scouring old newspapers.

Much appreciated,

Adam

I noticed this on ebay (no its not me selling it!)

There were a couple of other interesting items include those old metallic reflective car stickers..

Thos badges look like the ones you got George.. I reckon you got a bargain judging by the price these framed ones are going for.
