Unfortunately the bad news didn't finish for Williamstown with the grand final loss. Early in the morning of Sunday, December , the press box and storeroom at the Williamstown Cricket Ground was destroyed by fire, suspected to have been lit by vandals. Along with the building, the bell that was used to mark the start and finish of each quarter since 1916 was also destroyed. Some would have you believe that the bell had come from the HMVS Cerberus while others maintained that it came from a yacht that was broken up at Knight's slipway. This was the last hand-rung bell used at any major ground in Melbourne as the use of a siren could have caused confusion by the use of sirens on ships close to the shore, especially on foggy days .
