Vegemite Cup

A slang term used in Australian rules football for premierships that were won before 1950 when the game was less a business and more of a leisure sport. Essentially indicating that premierships won during this time had little to no meaning and thus are nothing to be proud about.

"Wow Essendon have won 16 premierships!!"

"yeah, well about nine of those were vegemite cups"
