The name of the Australian country town of ''Wilgunyah'' was fictional and does not exist in real life. There is however a town called by the similarly sounding name of ''Wahgunyah'' which is situated in north-eastern Victoria in Australia.
The strip colours of the Wilgunyah Wombats football team play in are the same red and white colours of the Sydney Swans who were formerly the South Melbourne Swans.
