Parkside Football Club 1897/2017

North trailed by 20 points at the last range but stormed home to kick five goals to Parkside’s one in
the final term. It was a desperate push, with players of both sides throwing themselves in for the all
in attempts to clinch the premiership.

Parkside led by five points at half-time and increased that to 20 points at three quarter time after
kicking with the wind in the first term. Many people felt that Parkside’s lead would be sufficient.
However, North were able to provide a dazzling last quarter which has been a trademark in their
successive victories and a credit to coach Ron Brown’s ability to be able to change players to the
point where they are ays finishing over their opponents. To Parkside’s credit, they led most of the
time and were only caught in the final few minutes, and could have still won the game had a late
shot for goal right on the siren not swung say for a point. “
