(Redirected from 1965 VFL Grand Final)
Grand final of the 1965 Victorian Football League season
St Kilda were minor premiers for the first time in their history and, after beating Collingwood by a point in the semi-final, found themselves competing in just their second-ever grand final and first since 1913, which they lost to Fitzroy. Essendon, on the other hand, last won a premiership three years previously.
The Bombers set up their win in the third quarter, scoring five goals to just one by the Saints. Ted Fordham kicked seven goals for Essendon.
The game was considered lost media for many years. However, the ABC was able to locate an archived copy of the game decades after.
