1930

From Sid Grant History of Coalfields Soccer

A bold bid was made in 1930 and Osborne (Wallsend), Paddocks (Wallsend), W. Walker (Wallsend) were roped in. The season was highly successful without any honours and reflected great credit on the club's ex-champion, Jack Avis, who was now secretary. A 3 to 2 reverse by Adamstown at Hobart Park blasted their State Cup hopes. Chief goalscorers were J. Williams (42), J. Kemp (14), H. Biggers. (12) and J. Manion (11). McNabb and Osborne won places in the state team which played Queensland in Brisbane.
