Parkside Football Club 1897/2017
“Parkside lost its place four players in the A Grade four after a defeat at hands of Kingsville last
Sunday, but officials rate it a good performance to be beaten by only 11 points with only four players
"trying".
And a quiet tip for the A Grade best and fairest Tis said Parkside captain-coach Barry Beattie was
slightly ahead at the latest count, and he would have received another three votes last Saturday.”

“Parkside Under 12 youngster Dale Murphy, son of former A Grade coach Lindsay Murphy, has bolted
in with the club's best and fairest award — yet still has two years left to play in this division.
Dale won with 88 votes from Tolly Brbot (42) who finished second on a countback from Lee Brett,
also 42.
Under 16 captain Wayne Davis won the club's best and fairest trophy with 31 votes from Ray Kelly
(27) who was second on a countback from Stephen Cook, also 27.”

“Parkside captain coach and former Footscray footballer Barry Beattie has taken off the FDL A Grade
best and fairest award --in his first year in the competition.
