Camberwell



Known originally as the Tricolours - because of their blue, white and red playing uniform - Camberwell joined the VFA in 1926 but had to wait until 1979, by which time they were known as the Cobras, to claim their first flag thanks to a 39 point defeat of Oakleigh in the second division grand final.
