4823 attendance. Probably all bloody corporates.
Was that Fitzroy's only flag?
Six more between 1904 and 1944 (1904, 1905, 1913, 1916, 1922 and 1944) and one the year prior in 1898 in the VFL. 1895 premiers in the VFA. They were known as the Fitzroy Gorillas for their 1944 flag.

1916 they finished last (2W , 1D , 9 L) in the H & A season , so they technically won the wooden spoon after the minor round season and then ended up premiers as well.

Only 4 teams competed in 1916 and they all played in the final series.
