Does anyone happen to have a list of VFA grand final teams from the early years
I have read through a number of newspaper articles and sketched out the players but it is pretty general at the moment
I have been going through the old VFA grand finals and some interesting names pop up. For example Albert Pannam from Collingwood applied to transfer to Preston, but was unsuccessful, but then did transfer to Prahran.
