1975

According to Kevin Hillier, “The 1975 season saw the demise of the F & Y Socials from the
competition, but Braybrook continued to power on, and not only at senior level. Its juniors were also

building their own history. Boasting future stars like Doug Hawkins it proved to be an awesome
combination, as Parkside stalwart Neville O’Connor recalls:

“I remember we went up to Braybrook one day and playing was Doug Hawkins, Brian Wilson, Robert
Gronewagen and Donnie Wilson. There was four of them in the one under sixteen side and they
were some of the most brilliant junior football seen over the years.”

In the 1975 season in round two, Parkside kept up to Braybrook until three quarter time, when
Braybrook scored 43 points to nil to win by 65 points.
