The Corowa Football Club, nicknamed the Spiders, was an Australian rules football club based in Corowa, New South Wales, that competed in the Ovens & Murray Football League.[1]

The club merged with the Wahgunyah Football Club on several occasions during its early history and as a result was also known as the Border United Football Club from time to time between 1877 and 1947.

Then in 1979, both Corowa Football Club and Rutherglen Football Club merged to form Corowa Rutherglen Football Club and have played in the Ovens and Murray Football League ever since.

Club History

The Corowa Football club was established by a gentleman called Jacob Levin in 1877.[2] Wahgunyah Football Club soon followed and the first recorded match of the Corowa Football Club was a return match against Wahgunyah Football Club on Saturday, 16 June 1877, played "on the hill" in Corowa, with Wahgunyah winning the first encounter.[3]

As early as 1877, there was talk of the Wahgunyah and Corowa Football merging to form one stronger club and be called Border United Football Club.[4] This merger actually took place and their first match as Border United was played against the Rutherglen Football Club in August 1877 and was captained by Jacob Levin.[5] The Border United team wore pink and white colours.[6]

In 1879, a North East Victorian district football team was compiled to play the Melbourne Football Club in Melbourne on 25 September 1879. Border United players selected in this squad were J Chivell, J Levin and A McLaughlin,[7] resulting in a win to Melbourne.[8]

In 1880, in a match played on the Corowa ground to decide the "unofficial" premiership of the North East District, Border United: 7.14 – 56 defeated Beechworth: 2.1 – 13.[9][10] Jacob Levin captained the Border side.[11]

In 1884, 20 acres of land along the Murray River near the main bridge across from Wahgunyah was set aside by the NSW Department of Lands as a recreational reserve in Corowa.[12] Regulations were written up in 1911 with the reserve under the management of a group of locally elected trustees.[13]

In 1884, the Corowa Junior footballers travelled to Albury, but were defeated in a close match.[14]

In July, 1887, Border United FC hosted the Essendon Football Club in Corowa, with about 1000 people present, with Essendon, 4.14 – 38 defeating Corowa 3.5 – 23.[15] James Nugent was captain of the Border United FC side.[16]

Border United FC was a very settled club between 1877 and 1905, with annual general meetings and club office bearers reported in the Corowa Free Press newspaper every year. They played many friendly matches against other local towns and teams, prior to entering the O&MFA in 1895.

In 1890, Border United FC had a first 20 side and a second 20 side that played in a number of friendly matches against other local teams.[17]

The Border United Football Club first entered the Ovens and Murray Football League in 1895 and finished third on the ladder.[18] Border United FC remained in the O&MFA between 1895 and 1905.

In 1896, William King - Border United FC was arrested and charged with assaulting umpire Tidyman, cutting his face in a match against Chiltern Football Club. King was fined £3, plus £8 in legal fees in the Corowa Police Court, in default of six months imprisonment. The fine was paid for by several local residents.[19] The Ovens and Murray Football League later disqualified King for life.[20]

In 1897, the Border United and Corowa Federal Junior Football Club's merged after a number of last year's players had left the district.[21]

In 1899, the small town of Corowa boasted four football teams – Border United, Half – Holidays, Pilots and Pirates, as well as Wahgungah across the river.[22]

In 1900 Border United played off for the O&MFA premiership against Excelsior in Rutherglen after both finishing the season on equal points,[23] but lost the match by 10 points, thus finishing as runners up.[24]

In 1902, 1903 and 1904, Border United finished second on the O&MFA ladder at the end of the home and away season. No finals were played in these seasons. In 1905, Border United failed to win a game in the O&MFA. So in early 1906 the Border United FC changed its name to the Corowa Football Club after much discussion at the club's AGM.[25]

At the Border United FC's Annual General Meeting at the O'Leary's Courthouse Hotel on Wednesday, 13 April 1904 and "owing to the apathy shown last year and so far as the present season has gone it was decided to disband the club."[26]

Then on Tuesday, 19 April 1904, a meeting was held at Kelly's Corowa Hotel, it was resolved to re-form and once again enter the O&MFA, with the nominations and elections of the club's office bearers taking place.[27]

In 1904, the Trustees of the Corowa Recreation Reserve co-signed the "Regulations for the management of the recreation ground at Corowa".[28]

At an Ovens and Murray Football Association meeting in Rutherglen on Wednesday, 5 July 1905, the President stated that "the Border United side had disbanded for the remainder of the season",[29] resulting in a winless season.

In 1906 the Corowa and District Football Association was formed and the following teams entered this competition - Balldale, Burryjaa, Corowa, Howlong and Wahgunyah.[30] Corowa Football Club went onto win the premiership, finishing on top of the ladder, with seven wins from eight games.[31]

In 1906, Corowa FC captain, Fred Nixon left Corowa for financial reasons to go and play with the Rutherglen FC.[32]

In 1907, Corowa finishing fourth on the ladder in the Corowa and District Football Association, which was won by the Wahgunyah Football Club.[33]

At the Annual General Meeting of the Border United Football Club in Corowa on Tuesday, 20 May 1908 at the Corowa Hotel, it was decided to change the club's name to the Corowa Football Club after the Wahgunyah Football Club informed them that wanted to run a team by themselves.[34] Both clubs played in the Ovens and Murray Football League in 1908.[35]

In 1909, Corowa once again played in the O&MFL, but in 1910 Corowa FC went into recess as a club. One newspaper article wrote due to "the introduction of professionalism in different teams......it absolutely killed football in Corowa......a number of players now appear to play for whichever club is offering the highest price".[36] Wahgunyah FC played in the O&MFL Junior competition in 1910 and were runners up to Lake Moodermere.[37]

In 1911, the Corowa FC were reformed after a meeting at Jager's Royal Hotel on Tuesday, 4 April and decided to continue to play in the red and black colours as in previous years.[38] They then entered the Rutherglen and District Football Association and played as Corowa FC in 1911 and 1912.

In September 1911, Chas Flowers won a gold medal for winning the Corowa Free Press goalkicking competition.[39]

In 1913, the club changed its name to and was referred to as the Border United Football Club in the local newspaper, The Corowa Free Press. The club lost the Preliminary Final to Rutherglen by five points.[40]

In the 1914 O&MFA Grand Final Rutherglen: 9.9 – 63 defeated Border United: 6.16 – 52 on the Albury Sportsground.[41]

In September 1914, North Melbourne Football Club defeated Border United on the Corowa Recreation Reserve.[42]

In 1918, Border United FC played in the Rutherglen & Murray Football Association consisting of the following sides: Border United, Freehold Ramblers and Lake Rovers,[43] with all funds raised going to the Patriotic Fund.[44] Lake Rovers defeated the Freehold Ramblers in the grand final at Barkly Park Oval, Rutherglen.[45]

In 1919, Border United returned to the O&MFA and wore a red guernsey with black hoops.[46]

When the O&MFA went into recess in 1920, Corowa FC entered the Coreen & District Football Association and competed with - Balldale, Burraja, Coreen, Daysdale and Oakslands. Corowa took out the 1920 premiership, defeating Daysdale in the grand final played at Burraja.[47]

In 1921 Corowa FC returned to the O&MFA and were defeated by St. Patrick's FC in the grand final played at the Albury Showgrounds.[48]

In 1924, Corowa FC appointed former St. Kilda Football Club player, Rex De Garis as playing coach[49] and wore a red jumper with two black vertical stripes on the front of the jumper.[50]

In March 1926, the Corowa Stars Football Club was established to foster young football talent in the town and provide coaching to a team of juniors, who from time to time could fill in for Corowa's O&MFA club. The Corowa Stars initially applied to enter the Coreen & District Football League, but their entry was rejected.[51] Corowa Stars were later accepted into the Chiltern & District Football Association in 1926.[52] The Corowa Stars went onto win the 1927 Chiltern & DFL premiership when they defeated Wodonga Rovers on the Chiltern Football Ground and were captained by Jack Kuschert.[53] Corowa Stars decided to reform after their 1934 – AGM, but it appears they never got up and going and did not enter a team in any local competition and ultimately folded.

In 1926, the Corowa Recreation Reserve hosted the O&MFA grand final when St. Patrick's FC defeated Wangaratta Football Club.[54]

In an interesting move at the conclusion of the 1926 O&MFL season for Corowa FC, coach Maurie Sheahan accepted the coaching job at Walbundrie Football Club for the remainder of the 1926 season.[55]

In 1929, the O&MFA selected Corowa as the venue to host the grand final, when East Albury defeated West Albury.[56]

One of the local Corowa FC stars of the 1920s was forward, Newman Bufford who apparently was "the greatest forward the Murray ever knew. The man Maurie Hunter takes his hat off to."[57]

In 1930, Corowa appointed former St. Kilda Football Club player, Bert Smedley as playing coach.[58]

In 1932, Corowa, captained by Ray "Nana" Baker defeated West Albury Football Club in the Ovens and Murray Football League grand final on the Albury Sportsground.[59][60][61]

After the 1932 premiership, Corowa played off for the unofficial championships of North Eastern Victoria against the 1932 Ovens & King Football League premiers, Wangaratta Football Club in Corowa on Saturday, 1st October. Wangaratta defeated Corowa by 12 points.[62]

In 1934, coached by Ray Le Peyre, Corowa were runners up, remarkably to a team called the Border United FC (a 1933 merger club between East Albury & Weir United) in the O&MFA Grand Final, played on the Albury Sportsground.[63][64] In 1936, Border United FC would merge with the Albury Football Club when both clubs were short of players and both in debt and took on the name of Albury Football Club.[65]

In 1941, Len Woods, a 1940 recruit from Rennie Football Club, did pre-season training with South Melbourne Football Club.[70]

But in 1942, a local Corowa Military Football Association competition was set up between the "Corowa Town" FC (mainly local Corowa FC players) and the Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) and the Australian Imperial Force (AIF), whose teams where made up of many interstate soldiers based in Corowa, with the RAAF defeating Corowa Town in the grand final, played on the Corowa Recreation Reserve.[71]

In 1943, Corowa FC footballers played a number of friendly matches against other local nearby towns under the banner of both the Royal Hotel and Star Hotel, Corowa, using the names Corowa Royals FC and also the Corowa Stars FC, to raise much needed funds for the local Prisoner of War Appeal and they played for the "Corowa Hostelry Premiership", with the Royals winning by two points.[72]

The club finally has success with a VFL clearance and appointed former 1944 Fitzroy Football Club premiership player, Stan Wright as captain / coach for the 1947 season.[75] Wright, after injuring his knee in round one, returned in round six against Yarrawonga Football Club, but "his knee could not stand the strain" and he resigned.[76] Border United officials then signed up South Melbourne Football Club player, Tom Roulent as coach,[77] but his clearance was also refused.[78] Local player Jack O'Donoghue then took over as captain/coach for the remainder of the season.
