The nature of the
relationship between the TFL which ceased operation after the 2000 season and
the new statewide competition which commenced in 2009 is very much open to
interpretation. However, I have, with some misgivings, decided for convenience
sake to combine the records of the two competitions, at least for the time
being.

Footnotes
1.
Some sources list Holebrook as the premiership team for 1884. However,
a story in 'The Tasmanian Mail' for 2 May 1885, uncovered by Ross Smith, clearly
indicates that the preceding year's premiership was won by Cricketers.
