On Saturday,July 28th, 1888, the Essendon Football Club played a team on it's home ground at the East Melbourne Cricket Ground.
The final scores were,Essendon 7 goals-16 behinds,the other side 3 goals-5 behinds.
The team they played wasn't from Victoria or anywhere else from Australia.
Name the team EFC played that day?

You're bloody banned from this s.e.b
England is sort of correct,but it was actually a Great Britain side made up of English,Irish,Welsh and Scottish football players who came over in 1888 to tour and play football games that were a mixure of Rugby/British and Australian Rules against teams in Victoria,S.A and N.S.W.
Of course no such tour would be complete without visiting and playing one of the strongest and most famous clubs at the time..Essendon.

I guess it is punishment as I could never do cryptic crosswords.
Two premierships players from a wedding. Who are they? One of them is moderate, the other grew grass for a while, they both, nah that'll make it to easy.
Nice angle B-Bomber but only one has played in a premiership.
Next clue. The fruit of their respective loins have each played for Essendon. One of these off spring averages exactly 1 goal a game and both off spring have christian names starting with letter 10.

You'll doodle it in from here nobby.
Merv Neagle and Tim Watson
Pay the man.
Nobby got Tim.
Your first clue that he is "moderate" made me pretty sure it was Merv but i was lost on the grass hint.
Then your second hint gave it away.
Cheers
Gary Ablett's son really played for Essendon, making the Essendon team of the century.
Who was it?

Harold Lambert?
Gary Ablett = God
Gods son = The Messiah
The Messiah = Courtney Johns
Johns didn't make the team of the century.
not coleman? becasue that way to cryptic for me. I just saw most of the letters in Lambert in Ablett
John Coleman is right. JC = son of god.
Drew it is easier being on this side of a cryptic challenge. I have fulfilled Nobby's punishment and done a couple so I'll bow out. Your turn.
