Premiership trophy cabinets

[MrRockett24]

Howdy.

Saw a photo of the Essendon Football Clubs Premiership/Trophy/Award Cabinet.

2 Large glass cylinders with the 16 cups rising upwards.

Beautiful effort by the club to put some thought and pride in showing off these.


Was wondering if anyone has pics of the other clubs Trophy Cabinets.

[Mitchell Madness]

No picture, however, i believe hawthorn keep the cups in the board room, nothing special

 

[JUBJUB]

Geelong have all theirs in a glass display in the window of the Premiership stand so you can walk by anytime day or night and see them.

 

[RedmanWasHere]

Wouldn't all of the cups be housed at the National Sports Museum at the MCG?

Yeah, they do.

Best picture I can get of ours. At the Eagles admin, Subiaco Oval. Very nice workers there too, last time I was there they got the 06 Cup out and let me hold it and get a few photos.

Yeah, they do.

The "family club" of Hawthorn like to keep their trophies in a cabinet away from the prying eyes of their "family"?

I would have thought they would put at least some of them in the museum they have there at Waverley. That is surprising. poor effort Hawthorn. Carlton's used to be on display for the public...haven't checked for a while but it reminds me the last time we won a premiership was a long, long time ago. 1995. very sad.

There's a picture of St Kilda's trophy cabinet somewhere on the Bay, not the greatest spectacle.

 

[LouisCK]

Melbourne's are kept in a big pit of gold, Scrooge McDuck style.

[Korn]

Just 4 more to filled up our cabinet.

 

[RedmanWasHere]

Edited for spelling error.

But seriously, how are they gonna find another one to replace the existing one?

 

[fushy]

Think a few of ours are there

er we dont really require a cabinet

neither do the other lot mate.
They are mostly insignificant VFL trophies that no Interstate sides were a part of so there is hardly anything to brag about when you weren't even competing against half the comp.

Erm, sorry mate, but the lions and the swans have been playing in this league since its foundation.

Now, as to the worth of those shiny bits of tin in port's trophy cabinet...

Just cause there's lots of interstate franchises in our league now doesn't mean anyone in Vic gives a s**t about them either, just a few more games that no one gives a **** about each week.

 

[greatwhiteshark]

Most clubs use cabinets, Port Adelaide and East fremantle have to have a whole room to house theirs.

Seen that. Really good set up.

 

[kidkenobi]

Lingy takes care of most of ours. We don't ask what he gets up to with them.

So who has Fitzroy Cups?

Brisbane Lions or the Fitzroy Reds in the VAFA?

 

[Adelaide Hawk]

Just as well they awarded cups retrospectively before 1959, otherwise the cabinets of Essendon, Carlton and Collingwood would look fairly average.

The Brisbane Lions have the cups.

The Fitzroy Reds no longer exist. They were incorporated into THE Fitzroy Football Club (who once competed in the VFL-AFL) in December 2008.
