Kevin Longbottom
Kevin Longbottom (1940 - 1986) was an Aboriginal Australian professional rugby league player of the 1960s. Longbottom was known by the nickname "Lummy" and was renowned for his long-range goal kicking, sometimes even kicking goals from further than the halfway line. A large, barrell chested man, he won a premiership with in 1967, and played in the 1965 Souths team that were runners up.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.nrlstats.com/archive/players.cfm?PlayerID=4953 )〕 He played Fullback for most of his career.
Longbottom initially forced his way into first grade when full-back, Darrel Chapman became injured.〔Sydney Morning Herald: 07/03/1962〕 He kicked a conversion in South Sydney's win over Canterbury in the 1967 Grand final that should have resulted in a 14-10 win. His three long range penalty goals in the 1965 Grand Final are still regarded as possibly the longest kicks every attempted at the Sydney Cricket Ground.〔Alan Whitaker. rugbyleagueproject.org〕
Longbottom was a fine golfer, but is better remembered as a famous caddie to many professional golfers including Bruce Devlin, Bob Shearer and American Tommy Bolt.〔The Age: Thunder as Tommy Finishes. 16/10/1978〕
Longbottom died from cancer in 1986.
