Hobart
"Hobart may have only spent fifty-three seasons in the TFL but its success in winning nine premierships from fifteen grand finals during that time represents the commendable return of a flag every 5.9 years, a record which few clubs anywhere can match."
John Devaney tells the story of the Hobart Football Club.
