3. How Melbourne got its name
Melbourne was named in 1837 after the
British Prime Minister William Lamb the 2nd
Viscount Melbourne who resided in the village
named Melbourne in Derbyshire. He was also
the Prime Minister of England at the time of
Queen Victorias coronation, so therefore it just
might stand to reason that's how Melbourne,
Victoria got it's name.
4. The founder of Melbourne
Melbourne was founded on 30 August 1835 by the
settlers who sailed from Van Diemen’s Land
(Tasmania) on board the schooner Enterprize. They
landed on the north bank of the Yarra River, close to
where Customs House stands today and the place
now known as Enterprize Park.
The Melbourne Day Committee was established to

The Collingwood Football Club, nicknamed The Magpies, is an Australian rules
football club which plays in the Australian Football League (AFL). Formed in 1892,
the club traditionally represented the inner-Melbourne suburb of Collingwood;
however it has now moved its training and administration base to Gosch's Paddock
and the Melbourne Sports and Entertainment Centre, at Olympic Park in
Melbourne. In 2000, Collingwood moved its home games from its traditional
suburban home ground, Victoria Park, to the much larger Melbourne Cricket
Ground.
Collingwood is the most supported club in the AFL and one of the most supported
clubs in any sport in Australia.[2][3] It has consistently attracted much higher than
average crowds to its home games than other clubs in the league.[4][5] In 1970,
121,696 spectators watched Collingwood and Carlton contest the Grand Final, the
record attendance for a football game of any code in Australia. Collingwood
currently have the most members of any club in the AFL, with 71,516 as of July
2011.[6] The total home crowd for Collingwood in 2010 was 695,816 at an average
of 63,256.[7]
