VFA-VFL EXHIBITION MATCHES
|
INTRODUCTION
|
1877 marked the opening season of the Victorian Football Association (VFA) and that same year the first exhibition matches of note were played: Carlton taking on the Waratah club in Sydney; Melbourne travelling to Adelaide to play a combined SAFA line-up; and St Kilda following suit at season's end with further exhibition matches in Adelaide.
Numerous tours took place over the next twenty years with VFA clubs playing matches throughout regional areas as well as interstate. Most were played on end of season trips, with a handful being played during the season on representative weekends or when a club had a bye week in their fixture. Following the split of 1896 there were two main periods of practice/exhibition games against clubs of the breakaway Victorian Football League (VFL); 1898-1907 and 1935-1937. On both occasions these matches ceased due to a flare-up in the board room between the rival VFA and VFL competitions. The VFA clubs played occasional exhibition matches over the next forty seasons until a return to the main stage with NFL night series matches between 1977 and 1979. However, by the 1980s exhibition matches had become a rarity for VFA clubs. The only period of note since being the Foxtel Cup games against State League clubs from 2011 to 2014. |

1888 Port Melbourne vs Great Britain - this was part of a lengthy tour of Australia and New Zealand by a representative rugby team (the first version of what is known today as the British Lions). During their time in Victoria and South Australia the rugby team played a number of Australian football matches under "Victorian Rules", including matches against top-level clubs Carlton, Essendon, Fitzroy, Port Melbourne, South Melbourne, Adelaide, Norwood, Port Adelaide and South Adelaide.
1889 Port Melbourne Tour of NSW - Port joined other prominent clubs such as Carlton, Essendon, Fitzroy and Melbourne in travelling interstate for a series of tour matches. The Northumberland and Waratah clubs were two of the strongest clubs at the time in the Newcastle and Sydney regions respectively.
1894 Essendon vs VFA - an end of season match between the VFA Premiers and the rest of the Association played to raise funds for various charities. Essendon's gun forward Thurgood was one of numerous late withdrawals from both line-ups. Players for the combined VFA team wore their various club uniforms rather than a representative jumper causing confusion both on-field and for the spectators.

1899 Footscray vs Ballarat Imperial - played the week after Footscray won the VFA premiership.
1900 Footscray vs VFA - a fundraiser for the family of the late Frank Mitchell, played between the VFA premiers and the rest of the Association. Mitchell was a long-serving secretary of North Melbourne FC and life member of the VFA who had helped keep the Association going when the strongest clubs broke away to form the VFL and he had been "principally responsible for Brunswick, West Melbourne and Prahran joining the ranks". [(Footscray) Independent 25-8-1900, p.3] Robertson (Brunswick), McKinley (Williamstown) and Brown (Prahran) played for Footscray who were without four of their premiership team.
1901 Footscray vs Victorian Junior FA - the VJFA were the leading second grade league in Victoria and for a number of years their representative team had played an annual pre-season match against the reigning VFA premiers. This tradition continued after the split of 1896 but the match took place against the VFL premiers instead. However, from 1901 the VJFA began playing two pre-season games: one against the VFA's champion and the other against the VFL's premier team.
1901 North Melbourne vs Bendigo FA - played during North's bye week in aid of 'Bulla' McDonald (a seriously injured Sandhurst player).
1903 Richmond vs Collingwood - the first match to be played between reigning VFA and VFL premiers.
1903 Port Melbourne vs Bendigo - the Bendigo FC side was strengthened by the addition of two fill-in players.
1904 Richmond vs Marylebone Junior FC - Richmond (minor premiers) had a week off in the VFA whilst waiting for their opponent in the challenge final to be decided, so they travelled to Geelong to play the top junior club in the region. Marylebone was boosted by the addition of Bennion and E. Rankin from Geelong FC.

St Kilda were unimpressed to learn that North Melbourne had bolstered their side with three strong players from other VFA clubs (Hoare from Essendon 'A', Alley from Williamstown, and Walton from Port Melbourne). This ill-feeling spilled onto the field and a spiteful match ensued, with numerous fights breaking out throughout the contest.
1916 North Melbourne vs VFA - due to the First World War the VFA ended their 1915 season early and went into recess during 1916-17. However, the players reunited for this one-off match: a fundraiser for former South Melbourne and North Melbourne player Harry Todd who had lost his hands in a workplace accident. North Melbourne fielded their 1915 premiership team and players on both sides were reported to be out of form having had no football for a year. The following week a fundraiser was also played between retired North Melbourne and South Melbourne champions with South winning 4.4 (28) to 1.0 (6).
1924 Footscray vs Essendon - as with the 1902 VFA vs VFL representative match and the 1915 North Melbourne vs St Kilda contest, it was charity that again brought the rival football bodies together on the same playing field. The 1924 match was played in aid of Dame Nellie Melba's Limbless Soldiers Appeal and was promoted as being for the "Championship of Victoria", although no such title actually existed. [The Argus 3-10-1924] This was the third contest between reigning VFA and VFL premiership teams, and the first to carry any sort of status. A crowd of 46,100 - an unprecedented attendance for an exhibition match - witnessed a major upset as Footscray overcame a 2 point deficit at half-time to claim a famous 28 point win. During the months that followed Footscray joined North Melbourne and Hawthorn in transferring from the VFA to the VFL.
1929 Oakleigh vs Preston - originally scheduled as Northcote versus Oakleigh but Northcote were involved in the VFA Challenge Final played the same day.
1929 Brunswick vs Alberton Shire XVIII - Leo McInerney kicked 10 goals for Brunswick.
1931 Preston vs South Warrnambool - former St Kilda champion, Col Watson led the South Warrnambool team.
