Is there a similar forum for the VFL (VSFL) as this site?

FootyGoss exists for the WAFL?

Can anyone list chat forums like this one that exist in other states - I'm after a VFA/VFL Historian

Does anyone know of a VFA/VSFL historian?

Hi Mark,

I would try PhilG, who posts on this forum (when he isn't being attacked by RoyLion :wink: )
He has a lot of records from the VFL and other Leagues and his website is at:
http://philsfooty.4.forumer.com/

There is also a VFL forum at

http://vflfooty.dyndns.org/modules.php?name=Forums

but it isn't as active as this one.

Hope that helps

Marc Fiddian has done 2 books on the history of the VFA and and clubs such as
Coburg,Oakleigh,Prahran,Preston,Williamstown and several other
football books. He's a bit difficult to get a hold of, the only
suggestion I have is to contact Santo Caruso at Melbourne Sports Books on
03 9662 1085.

Santo Caruso at Melbourne Sports Books on
03 9662 1085.

As Mr66 pointed out, try Santo. He is a passionate footy man and flies over to a number of Norwood games every season. A lovely guy as well and he has a great shop. Also supports Basketball and Cricket.

Another suggestion is to contact Gerry from
At The Toss Of A Coin
219 Unley Road
Malvern SA 5061
Ph: (08) 8373 0170
