Frank 'Bluey' Adams
Frank 'Bluey' Adams (born 12 June 1935) is a former Australian rules football player, who played in the Victorian Football League (VFL) for the Melbourne Football Club.
His prime positions were in the forward pocket, where he was a regular, damaging goal-kicker, and as a rover and a wing-man, where he was able to use his great pace to advantage in the open spaces of the MCG. He was one of the fortunate few Melbourne players to be part of all six premierships the club gained during its ten 'golden years' from 1955 to 1964.
Adams was a national champion professional sprinter. Adams won the 1957 75 yards/130 yards Gift double at Cobram then a week later won the Lilydale Gift〔Lilydale Gift – The Age 4 March 1957〕(130 yds) before running second in the 1957 Bendigo Thousand (130 yds). After running second in the Maryborough Gift, Adams won the 1958 Ararat Gift off a handicap of 3 yards in 12.3 seconds. He rounded off the year winning the South Melbourne and Canberra Gifts. Adams won the 1959 Australian sprint title before losing the title in 1960 to Terry Clarke. In November 1958, Adams ran a superb time of 43.8 seconds for 400 yards on a wet grass track at South Melbourne,〔https://news.google.com.au/newspapers?id=HasUAAAAIBAJ&sjid=T7MDAAAAIBAJ&pg=3537,4105749&dq=victorian+athletic+league&hl=en〕 before retiring from athletics at the age of 25.〔Professional Athletics in Australia, Percy Mason, Rigby publishers (1985) page 113.〕
