Tony: Lockett

An early biography of the AFL’s career goal kicking record holder which covers most of his career at St Kilda before the switch to Sydney in 1995.

The AFL's greatest goal kicker and 1987 Brownlow medallist tells his story. He describes his earliest memories in Ballarat, which included a period wearing callipers to correct knock knees, through to the historic moment when he broke the VFL/AFL's long standing record of 1299 career goals. He also comments on team mates and opponents, great matches, controversial and funny incidents, the media, family life and his thoughts on the future, but there is no section on career statistics or records.
