Notes -
*The club doesn't have individual goalkicking records nor quarter by quarter records prior to season 1990.
*Age Grade refers to the various Under Age grades the club has fielded over the years - Under 18, Under 19 and Under 20.
*There are 16 matches (3 wins, 4 losses and 9 abandoned) for which we don't know the venue.
*Regarding grade v other club records - matches are not necessarily on an "even footing" - eg our Reserve Grade does not necessarily play against another club's Reserve Grade any more. Our Ressies for instance may play a club's First side (eg Nor-West Jets in 2015) or a clubs Third side (eg Pennant Hills in 2015). Ditto for other grades.
