The Weekly Times newspaper sold to a predominantly Rural audience. It is because of this that the featured teams includes a range of country teams, rather than VFA or city based teams Industrial Teams such as Dunlop Tyres, Victoria Brewery, Police & Fire Department Teams or Railways teams.

Northcote earned the Premiership the hard way. The Final ended in a Draw with both teams scoring 55 points. A replay produced another close game but with Port Melbourne scraping home by 4 points. This result caused a Grand Final to be played where Northcote 15 21 (111) ran over Port Melbourne 10 9 (69) by 42 points. See http://www.thegapchessclub.org.au/vfa/1929.htm
The VFL photos were published 1-2 weeks after the photo was taken. The VFA photos probably follow a similar pattern.

The Boyles Connection
Two articles on the website combine to discuss the Boyles connection. The first article identifies team photos in the Weekly Times (1928-29) and Australasian (1929) as the source of stock images for numerous sets of football cards. The second, focuses on Charles Boyles relationship to the source team photos. See:1. Team Photos in the Weekly Times and Australasian 1928-29 - The link to Football Cards and the Football Record

VFA
Northcote (VFA) topped the VFA ladder at the end of the Home and Away series, but by a superior percentage, over Port Melbourne (VFA). The two ladder leaders then dispatched Preston (VFA) and Brunswick (VFA) in the Semi-finals.Northcote earned the Premiership the hard way. The Final ended in a Draw with both teams scoring 55 points. A replay produced another close game but with Port Melbourne scraping home by 4 points. This result caused a Grand Final to be played where Northcote 15 21 (111) ran over Port Melbourne 10 9 (69) by 42 points. See http://www.thegapchessclub.org.au/vfa/1929.htm
