The Footscray Football Club and Its Local Community in Colonial Melbourne
Foundation Narratives in Rowing, Cricket and Australian Rules Football: Sport in Footscray 1859-1886 Darren Arthur A thesis submitted for a Masters by Research degree at Victoria University Institute for Health and Sport Victoria University Melbourne, Victoria April 2019 Darren Edwin Arthur – MA Thesis ii Abstract How does a sporting club come to life? What and who are the drivers behind it and what are the forces that shape its development? This thesis examines the town of Footscray through the lens of three local sporting clubs during the period 1859–1886. The study attempts to answer the above questions and considers the reasons each entity came into prominence and what hindered their progress or allowed them to grow. The major focus of this thesis is the Footscray Football Club whose precise origins have not been formally identified, despite conjecture that the club was founded in 1883. Two other local sporting clubs are closely scrutinised, namely the first incarnations of the Footscray rowing and cricket clubs, whose histories have not been properly documented. The intertwined histories of these organisations will not only assist in providing wider contexts for understanding the birth of the local football club, but will, more broadly, illuminate the important role that sport plays in the building of local communities. Darren Edwin Arthur – MA Thesis iii Declaration I, Darren Edwin Arthur, declare that the Masters by Research thesis entitled, “Foundation Narratives in Australian Rules Football: The Footscray Football Club and its Local Community 1859-1886” is no more than the required word length including quotes and exclusive of appendices, bibliography, references and footnotes.

Chapter 8: INTRODUCING the CHEERSQUADS
Chapter 8: INTRODUCING THE CHEERSQUADS The ticket rage experienced by Carlton members in the week leading up to the 1987 Grand Final represented a shift from denial to anger in the reaction of football barrackers to recognition of their lack of sovereignty over the Game. Barrackers’ denial of their powerlessness had been rooted in assumptions and expectations formed during an era of consumer sovereignty, when privileges readily available were interpreted as rights and demanded accordingly. Each year, as the ticket shortage became more acute, anger increased accordingly while attempts at negotiating a greater sense of ownership of the Game became more common. In most cases this bargaining process involved the spending of ever-increasing sums of money on priority levels of membership, making the Game look more like a consumer commodity and less like a community birthright. As Ferdinand Tönnies observed of the gesellschaft, ‘All goods and services [were] conceived to be separate, as [were] also their owners. What somebody [had] and [enjoyed], he [had] and [enjoyed] to the exclusion of all others.’1 Although privileged consumer status in the football industry was normally bestowed in return for money, there remained one area where the League and the clubs rewarded a commitment based more on loyalty and love of club than financial outlay. The A.F.L. at the beginning of the twenty-first century continued to treat official club cheersquads differently from the 239 rest of the non-corporate public. If the ‘official’ status of the cheersquads was taken to define them as part of corporate football, their privileged treatment would seem scarcely remarkable.

Croxton Youth Club in the Beginning
HISTORY OF THE CROXTON YOUTH CLUB CROXTON YOUTH CLUB IN THE BEGINNING . 1958 Formally known as the WEST CROXTON SPORTS CLUB, the club was formed by FIVE Boys and 1 Girl of Gladstone Ave, Beavers Road and surrounding streets, NORTHCOTE, in the late 1950’s. They were;- Gary Payne, Norm Mathews, Kevin Gray, Graeme Fellows, Robert Hamer & Diane Targrass. The suburb was actually called Croxton and at the end of Gladstone Av, vacant land owned by the Government, was used by the youths to play football in the Winter and a Cricket pitch was made to play Cricket in the summer. It is rumoured that because of broken windows in Gladstone Ave. playing cricket, they moved to the land at the end of Gladstone Ave and made a cricket pitch. It wasn’t long before many of the Youths of the District became involved and many a good test match was played out on the roughest of pitches you could imagine. That Land today is the Special School built by the Government for Handicap Children. 1959 After several social matches, it was decided by the youths to form a Sports Club and in 1959 a meeting was convened at the home of Mr & Mrs Hamer 143 Gladstone Ave Northcote. The main topic on the agenda was whether Girls would be allowed into the Sports Club and this was passed with everybody voting that girls be allowed into the Sports Club. Bottle drives were held to raise money for equipment and after the initial meeting, all other meeting were held at the home of Mr & Mrs Stan Payne.

Hard Sell: Australian Football in Sydney by Matthew Healy a Thesis
Hard Sell: Australian Football in Sydney by Matthew Healy A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS School of Human Movement, Recreation and Performance Faculty of Human Development Victoria University Melbourne, Victoria August 2002 FTS THESIS 796.336099441 HEA 30001008093827 Healy, Matthew Hard sell : Australian football in Sydney Abstract Australian Rules football is the nation's most popular spectator sport. Few sporting activities can match the fanaticism, emotion and passion that the game generates. In Victoria, South Australia, Western Australia, and Tasmania, Australian Rules football plays a large part in the livelihood of millions of people. However, the game has had a somewhat weaker presence in the northern states, despite the fact that the expansion of Australian Rules football has long been on the agenda for administrators of the code. This thesis examines the entry of Australian Rules football entry into the rugby- dominated domain of Sydney. It traces unsuccessful attempts made by the Victorian Football Association and the Victorian Football League to promote the code in Sydney during the 1880s and early part of the nineteenth century, the hiatus of the middle part of the 1900s when Australian Rules football seemed to wallow in obscurity, and the League's 'Sydney Experiment' in the 1970s. The thesis then goes on to examine the circumstances surrounding the relocation of the South Melbourne Football Club to Sydney in 1982, and the club's subsequent decades in the harbour city. It is only in recent years that Australian Rules football appears to have finally made its mark in Sydney.
