As far as I am aware it is going to be on the weekend of 3rd/4th March at Leederville Oval in Perth. The two clubs have a good relationship with each other and the plan is for a return bout at Prospect in pre-season 2008 as well !

Being heavily involved at North in various "roles" over the years I am at odds as to where you are coming from in terms of having a good relationship between the two clubs? I have not heard Subiaco mentioned at all at Prospect in relation to anything although Kinglsey Walker was recruited by us last year from Peel Thunder after starting with Subiaco - so there's is one "tenuous" link I suppose?

We supplied them with their 1924 Premiership Captain and one of their greatest players - Snowy Hamilton!

Pretty sure Norwood played a Trial game at the Parade against Melbourne in the late 90's, perhaps early 000's ... From memory Melbourne won by about 4 goals.

The two clubs have only recently developed a good relationship.

If you're heavily involved at North I'm surprised you haven't heard about the Subiaco v North game! Also the clubs are planning and end-of-season trip to South Africa together to promote the game over there. A bit more than a just a 'tenuous' link between them I think!

Yes we have all heard about the proposed pre-season game but nothing is in concrete yet.

You should have used the word "recently" in your original post as you originally inferred it was an long time association between the two clubs which is why I queried it.

The planning of the South Africa game is very much dependant upon AFL financing which I understand they (The AFL) are baulking at because they do not believe State league clubs are "high profile' enough to promote Aussie Rules overseas.

Mid 90s (93/94??)
Port v Collingwood - I remember this match was a big deal at the time for the PAFC... much unlike the others that were nothing bit trials.

Collingwood won by three points.

Port kicked 3 or 4 goals in the last 10 minutes.

Both wore black and white!

any pics from that game?? would be interesting to see how it looked

[FOURTH ESTATE]

North Adelaide 10.13 73 defeated Carlton 10.12 72 15/10/1972 Adelaide Oval Champions of A

That was the final, there were games played before the final involving North (and Port???)

I believe you are thinking of the 1971 Rothmans Championships they held after this in Perth. North and Port were involved, they played only 2 halves of 30 minutes. It was won by Hawthorn 12-3 to Clarement 4-3.

Scores for SA teams:

Round 1
Claremont 11-3, North Adelaide 7-4
Port Adelaide 9-3, Richmond 8-8

Losers' Play off
Richmond 6-4, North 5-3

Semi Finals:
Claremont 10-6, Port Adelaide 3-5

3rd-8th playoffs:
East Perth 9-9, North Adelaide 7-7
West Perth 5-9, Port Adelaide 2-7

Final Placings:
1 Hawthorn
2 Claremont
3 West Perth
4 Port Adelaide
5 Richmond
6 East Fremantle
7 East Perth
8 North Adelaide

Full Points footy website has comprehensive summary and results from these tournaments. The championship held in 1971 that North and Port played in was the Ch. 7 Rothmans Cup - played as tribute to Graham "Polly" Farmer in Perth (2 x 30 minute halves) and was completely different to the Rothmans Champions of Australia Series. In 1971 North lost to Hawthorn in the Champions of Australia final at Adelaide Oval .



Here is a summary of the Champions of Australia Series thanks to full points footy. It (full points footy) also has a summary of the Ch. 7 Cup in 1971 for those interested.



Contests which might reasonably be regarded as being for the club Championship of Australia occurred during two main phases of the game's history.

Post season matches played during the period 1888 to 1914 between the premier teams of South Australia and Victoria were consistently described in the Melbourne ('the Age') and Adelaide ('the Advertiser') press of the time as being for the championship (or premiership) of Australia. These contests did not resume after World War One.

The games of 1968-69-70-71 were described at the time as being for the 'unofficial championship of Australia', basically because the Australian National Football Council had decreed that official status could only be conferred on the championships when involvement extended to the premier teams of Western Australia and Tasmania, as it did from 1972.

Between 1972 and 1975 the premier teams of South Australia, Victoria and Western Australia, together with either the Tasmanian state champions (1972-73 and '75) or a composite team of players drawn from the premier clubs of the NTFA, NWFU and TFL (1974) contested a bona fide Australian championship series in Adelaide.
The National Football League's 1976 series involved leading clubs from the VFL (5), SANFL (4) and WAFL (3) and was, prior to the VFL's late 1980s metamorphosis from state to national competition, the closest thing to a genuine, full scale Australian club championship ever to take place.

In 1972 when North won - the other Premier teams were City-South (TAS) and West Perth (WA). On the Saturday North beat City-South whilst Carlton beat West Perth despite Mal Brown's attempts to bash the crap out of the Carlton players (There is some great footage of Brown throwing punch after punch at about half a dozen Carlton players in the middle of Adel Oval). Of course the final on the Sunday was arguably North's finest moment and crowned Robran as the best footballer in Australia.

Mal Brown was Captain - Coach of East Perth at the time not West Perth

Mal moved to Richmond in 1974 on a 1 year agreement and returned to Coach Claremont in 1975 he almost coached West Adelaide in 1975 having had an interview on his way home to Perth after the 1974 season.
