[ edit ] Before the formation of the Victorian Football Association (VFA) in 1877 matches between clubs were organised on anad hoc basis. Since its founding in 1859, the Geelong Football Club had been involved in matches between other provincial Victorian clubs, as well as the clubs formed in the metropolitan Melbourne area. The club contested its first interclub match against theMelbourne Football Club at Argyle Square in 1860, which finished as a scoreless draw.[ 1] [ 2] [ 3] Geelong Advertiser [ 4]
The club competed for a number ofchallenge cups during the 1860s, permanently claiming the Caledonian Society Challenge Cup in 1864 after holding on the cup following a number of challenge matches.[ 5] [ 6] [ 7]
During the 1867 season, Geelong would play theCarlton Football Club for the first time at the Argyle Ground, with the club earning a tight victory.[ 8] [ 9] [ 10] [ 11] H. C. A. Harrison would line up against Geelong for Melbourne in a drawn match in 1869.[ 12] [ 13]
In 1873 the club would play a number of matches against metropolitan and provincial clubs, including three matches against the junior Kardinia Football Club.[ 14] [ 15]
At the start of the 1874 season, the club was the acknowledged holders of the "Geelong, Ballarat and Western District Challenge Cup" (GBWD Challenge Cup) and were subject to a number of challenge matches.[ 16] [ 17] [ 18] [ 19] [ 20] [ 21] [ 22] [ 23] St Kilda Football Club .[ 24] [ 25] Geelong Advertiser .[ 26]
During the 1875 season, Geelong would defend the GBWD Challenge Cup against Ballarat,[ 27] [ 28] [ 29] Barwon Football Club for the first time,[ 30] [ 31] [ 32] [ 33] [ 34] Carlton who were the premier metropolitan club.[ 35]
A third 1875 match between Geelong and Barwon ended in controversy when the match was abandoned after Barwon supporters rushed onto the field after a decision by umpireTom Wills who had deep connections with the Geelong club.[ 31] [ 36] [ 37] [ 38] [ 39] [ 40]
A new Western Districts Challenge Cup was instituted by Thomas Wills ahead of the 1876 season. Geelong would win the first meeting against Barwon on 17 June, but lost the Cup on 29 July to Barwon in a contentious match with the club vowing never to play against their local rivals again.[ 31] [ 41]
By 1877, while the system of organising matches was still up the secretaries of each club, the rules had been standardised by the VFA. In 1877 Geelong were acknowledged as one of the strongest provincial clubs, although local rivals Barwon in just their fourth season would take that title despite not coming to an agreement to play against Geelong.[ 42]
