1989 VFL/AFL Grand Final Highlights Hawthorn VS Geelong Dermott Brereton

injuries No Comments »

Highlights of the last ever VFL Grand Final before the comp became the AFL. Many say this was the greatest Grand Final in VFL/AFL History. This was a day when Dermott Brereton and Gary Ablett became greats of the game.

Ninety-six Liverpool football fans lost their lives when they went to watch a game on 15th April 1989.

More than 50,000 people gathered at the Hillsborough Stadium in Sheffield, England, for the FA Cup Semi-Final between Liverpool and Nottingham Forest.

In order to relieve a bottleneck of Liverpool fans trying to enter the venue before kickoff, police opened an exit gate and people rushed to get inside.

More than 3,000 fans were funneled into a standing-room-only area with a safe capacity of just 1,600. The obvious crush in the stands prompted organisers to stop the game after six minutes.
