The first Collingwood club commenced in 1860, and Melbourne's first game against them was in 1862, but this club later folded and the existing team formed in 1892.
During World War II there were suggestions the clubs, hardest hit by player losses to the players who served during war armed forces, would be forced to amalgamate for the duration of the conflict.
