Attendance	54,154

The 1935 VFL Grand Final was an Australian rules football game contested between the Collingwood Football Club and South Melbourne Football Club, held at the Melbourne Cricket Ground in Melbourne on 5 October 1935. It was the 39th annual Grand Final of the Victorian Football League, staged to determine the premiers for the 1935 VFL season. The match, attended by 54,154 spectators, was won by Collingwood by a margin of 20 points, marking that club's tenth premiership victory.

On Grand Final eve, South Melbourne's champion full-forward Bob Pratt was hit by a brick truck when alighting from a tram. He was replaced at full-forward by Roy Moore. Neither Moore nor Laurie Nash at centre-half-forward were able to break free of their opponents (Charlie Dibbs and Jack Regan respectively), helping Collingwood to win the match.

gollark: Hold on while I fire up potatOS, it has a UTC timer.

gollark: At least spoil it tomorrow?

gollark: I suppose so. Or read the code to spoil it. But don't.

gollark: You'll get an achievement if it does activate (take *that* speedrunners!) anyway.

gollark: It's actually client side triggered. But it's set to UTC to remove ambiguity. Probably.
