Ladder after home-and-away season1971
“In the A Grade semi-final, Parkside were too powerful, all over the ground, for West Footscray who
never gave up trying.
But with Parkside applying the pressure in the final quarter, they were never in danger of defeat.
Parkside’s perfomance was first class and they loom as the team to beat to win the flag.”
“Parkside turned in one of the most courageous efforts by an FDL side for many years when they
downed Braybrook by a mere one point in a thrilling game on Saturday.
Parkside now meets Spotswood in the A Grade grand final on Saturday at Yarraville.”
Parkside 6.11 (47) d. Braybrook 6.10 (46)
Parkside best were: Darcy, Thopmson, Rees(2), Morgan, Murphy and Fraser.
