"The Merger Game" as it was called, was a spirited contest, as it was a likely possibility that it would be the last Hawthorn v Melbourne contest and, as the result that Melbourne could not make the finals and Hawthorn needed to win the game by any margin to have any chance to contest the 1996 finals series, many fans saw this gam ...

To run a fund raising campa ...

| | | | Melbourne Hawks: Encyclopedia II - Melbourne Hawks - Background Since the mid 1980s, the formerly all-Victorian VFL competition had undertaken a large expansion program which saw the league expand from being a state-based competition (centred around the inner suburbs of Melbourne) to a national competition. The decision to undertake this expansion was in response to elite national leagues being run by other sporting codes (for example the ARL, the NBL, and the NSL), which threatened to undermine interest in football at both a junior, and elite level. The VFL / AFL expansion included new teams from Perth, Adelaide, Brisbane, and Sydney introduced to the competition, and saw the l ...
