This is the score as per the NSWAFL Annual Reports of 1990 and 1993. Australian Rules Football In Tasmania, however, by John Stoward gives the scores as Tasmania 14.10 (94) to New South Wales 11.7 (73).  Back

CARNIVAL SECTION 1: As of 1983, section 1 of the Australian interstate championships involved an annual series of matches between the three leading states: Victoria, Western Australia and South Australia.  The matches involving Victoria were all played under state of origin rules of varying strictness, and invariably took place on the home ground of Victoria's opponents.  South Australia and Western Australia, however, continued to meet one another on an inter-league basis.  Back

INTER-LEAGUE:  Teams consist of players drawn from the major league or leagues in the state in question, irrespective of their actual state of origin.  Back

STATE OF ORIGIN:  Teams consist of players originating from the state or territory in question.  However, the definition of 'originating from' has varied considerably.  Moreover, on some occasions, particularly during the early years of the state of origin concept, non-Victorian states and territories were limited as to the number of VFL-based players they could select, while the Victorian selectors were free to select as many non-Victorian VFL-based players as they wished.  Back
