We are supposed to be heading across to Talbot this week, but it is not to be.

These are crazy times, but hopefully things settle down in the near future and

we can all resume proceedings as per normal.

In our reasonably short time in

the MCDFNL, a healthy rivalry has emerged between Avoca and

the Hawks.

Our senior footballers have met on 24 occasions with the

Bulldogs having a 15 to 9 win/loss ratio.

Our A Grade netballers have been very successful in there matches having won every game of the 22 games played with a record high score of 106 goals to 18

goals back in 2011.

History shows that Avoca and Talbot first met way back in the 1800’s and a

game played in 1879 resulted in the death of a young Talbot Player named Robert Crooks.
