Arthur John Pink (15 November 1900 – 5 June 1986)〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Arthur Pink – Player Bio )〕 was an Australian rules footballer who played with Geelong in the Victorian Football League (VFL). ==Career== Pink, who was born in Beeac, went to Geelong High School and was recruited from the Newtown Football Club.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=World War Two Nominal Roll )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=N&CFNC Detailed History - Newtown & Chilwell )〕 A lightly built rover, Pink started his Geelong career in 1923 when he played 15 league games.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Arthur Pink – Games Played )〕 This included Geelong's semi final loss to Fitzroy, during which he received a knock to the head that left him temporarily unconscious. He was given the award for Geelong's best junior player at the cub awards that October. Pink appeared in all 16 games Geelong played in the 1924 VFL season.〔 Towards the end of the season he was a VFL representative at the Hobart Carnival and was named amongst the state's best players in a win over Western Australia, with four goals.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=A Carnival Classic – Victoria v WA, 1924 )〕 He polled three votes in the 1924 Brownlow Medal, which were enough to finish equal fifth.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=AFL Tables – 1924 Brownlow Medal )〕 A knee injury sustained in the opening round of the 1925 season kept Pink out of the team until round 13, a win over Richmond.〔 The following week, against St Kilda at Junction Oval, Pink again injured his knee. The club doctor gave Pink the unfortunate news that the knee cartilage was damaged so badly his football career was over. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Arthur Pink (footballer)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
