I am counting down what I believe are the five greatest Douglas Cup Finals. This match is the fifth on the list.
No.5 – 1930/31 – Northbourne v Ainslie – The match which went on forever!
The 1930/31 Final was held between Northbourne and Ainslie and started at Manuka Oval. Northbourne were the Minor Premiers by one point from Queanbeyan and Ainslie finished third after the home and away series. This Final was the first to be held at Manuka Oval, previous finals had been held Northbourne Oval and the Acton Sports Ground.
