Parkside Football Club 1897/2017
Trevor Lockwood (FDFL Best & Fairest – Under 17, 1980)
*****
“Parkside went to the top of the ladder with an easy victory over Seddon. Gordon Casey and Dale
Murphy showed the value of senior football experience when they outclassed their younger, less
experienced opponents. Parkside meets Spotswood next week and this will have a very big say in who
makes the four.”
Ladder after round 17, season 1981
“In what should have been the A Grade game of the day Parkside proved far too strong for home
team North Footscray.
Kicking with the aid of a strong wind, Parkside opened up 47-lead by quarter time in an impressive
start. However, it was their second quarter brilliance that won Parkside the match.
Having third use of the wind they drew even further away and went on to record a 51 point win. For
Parkside, Gordon Casey was best, and rover Mathey Byrachevski and centre half forward Gary
Considine both gave Parks plenty of drive.”
