It was wet everywhere, the NSWRL fields were mudheaps as well. Here in Canberra, I had a touch footy grand final postponed for weeks.
But other games in Victoria that week weren't low scoring.

You were doing well to participate in a touch football match considering you were 80 years old at the time.

What's the least amount of free kicks given in a game?
Well cross North and West coast off the list, narrows it down :p

Actually North and Essendon Round 1 had 21 LOL

Sydney Vs Essendon 2013 20 Free kicks 7-13
Carlton Vs Essendon 2013 Free Kicks 8-9 (17)
Port Vs Brisbane 2004 7-7 (14)

Wow, no wonder people got pisssed off with the game. We went from 14fk per game in 2001, spiked at like 21 fk per game around about 2009-2010, now its coming back down to 16ish.

Both Windy Hill and Western Oval were chopped to bits. I went to Windy Hill a few weeks after that first low scoring game - the ground was mud from end to end.

1989 was the wettest winter in Melbourne for more than 50 years. The MCG and Princes Park were other similarly affected grounds. So much so that the MCG was closed for a weekend and games rescheduled for VFL Park.

Travis Varcoe's 117 games playing in 100 wins - apparently the least to play in 100 wins.

Who are the other players with the least number of games played for 100 wins? (First 10 or so.)

Most excellent. Guessed it would be mainly current Cats and 20s/30s Magpies,
but maybe a few more of Hammond's and Dunstall's mates as well

In Round 10, 1982 and Round 3, 2000, six sides scored 100 or more and didn't win. Is that a record?
Thanks, I missed that. I use the address rl.stats or something like that. Same site.

I really wish they would include some results with modern results. ie, the lowest round scores are all 1899 era, hardly relevant to todays game. Have an historical table, and a modern day table.
