Northcote



Boasting the nickname of the Brickfielders because of the brickworks which operated in the locality, Northcote was admitted to the VFA in 1908 but would not begin to flex its muscles until twenty years later. Between 1929 and 1936 the side was consistently successful, contesting grand finals every year bar 1935 (when it finished third) for no fewer than five flags.
