 Eastport Peninsula: Sandringham: Newfoundland and Labrador Heritage
Sandringham was one of eight land settlements created by the Commission of Government in Newfoundland to lessen dependency on the fishery and to promote agriculture (the others were Markland, Haricot, Lourdes, Midland, Brown's Arm, Winterland and Point au Mal).
Sandringham was developed under a three-year plan during which time families were supported and their holdings capitalized according their need and effort.
In the long term Sandringham proved out to be one of the more successful of the land settlements, a tribute to its settlers since they had among the poorest soils and most difficult land to develop of all the land settlements.

Sandringham opened the game full of confidence and, kicking with the advantage of a strong wind that favoured the scoreboard end, was able to regularly score goals through its superiority in the rucks and in the midfield.
Sandringham was given permission to use two players who were in the Melbourne side that lost to West Coast in a rule that allows players who didn't get much of a run last week and opportunity to have additional game time.

Under the terms of the alignment with Melbourne, Sandringham keeps its colours, name, theme song, and the aim of both Sandringham and MFC are to win their respective premierships.
If Melbourne was not aligned with Sandringham they would have to field a stand alone club in the VFL competition, or try to take over a club, as Hawthorn did with Box Hill.
I would think that the Sandringham colours in the MFC V (light blue bottom - yellow yolk) would be a nice compromise.
