South Melbourne Hellas assorted highlights 1984-1988

Highlights from assorted South Melbourne Hellas games spanning 1984 to 1988. Sourced from VHS tapes transferred to DVD several years ago by the South Melbourne fan known as Banger. Naturally, audio and visual quality varies. This video covers a period where South achieved its first NSL success, then fell away into mid-table mediocrity, and the beginnings of the Baby Blues era which would ultimately lead South back to the top. The source material seems to lack anything from 1987. 1984 00:00:00 - Southern Division grand final vs Heidelberg United at Olympic Park 00:08:36 - NSL grand final 1st leg vs Sydney Olympic at Olympic Park 00:16:19 - SBS News report of NSL grand final 2nd leg vs Sydney Olympic at St George Stadium - extended highlights of both grand final legs available here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DLMFFAx-Vo4 1985 00:18:39 - Round 1 vs Green Gully at Middle Park - including footage of some bloke in the crowd refusing to give the ball back 00:26:03 - Round 2 vs Preston at BT Connor Reserve 00:26:49 - Round 4 vs Brunswick Juventus at Olympic Park no.2 00:28:55 - Round 7 vs Sunshine George Cross at Middle Park 00:29:38 - Round 8 vs Heidelberg United at Olympic Village 00:31:10 - Round 13 vs Preston at Middle Park 00:32:21 - Round 17 vs Adelaide City at Middle Park 00:35:04 - Round 19 vs Heidelberg United at Middle Park 00:38:12 - SBS News report of NSL preliminary final vs Preston at Olympic Park 1986 00:40:33 - Round 1 vs Brunswick Juventus at Olympic Park 00:44:47 - Round 6 vs Preston at Middle Park - full version of this game available at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RKaaE8haDIc 1988 00:47:57 - Round 4 vs Marconi at Olympic Park 00:51:31 - some sort of Mike Brady song promo for Australian soccer 00:52:27 - NSL Cup quarter final vs Adelaide City at Middle Park 00:56:23 - Round 8 vs Brisbane Lions - includes news footage with Brian Garvey, Kimon Taliadoros, and focus on South's young blood 01:00:11 - Round 13 vs Preston at Middle Park 01:01:50 - Round 15 vs Melbourne Croatia at Olympic Park
