bruce carter Launceston / Cananore / Mersey / North Launceston Centre Half Back 1903-1915 (player and coach) 1937 (non-playing coach)

Bruce Carter was a champion player who won the Bibby Trophy as Tasmania’s best player at the first Australian National Carnival in 1908. At this auspicious event he also carried the mantle of Tasmania’s first captain at a National Carnival.

Carter is best known, however, as Tasmania’s first recognised coach, leading his clubs to win an incredible nine premierships in ten seasons from 1904. Carter coached in all three regions of Tasmania, achieving success with North Launceston, Cananore and Mersey.

Such was his passion and ability in Tasmanian football that Carter was popularly known as ‘Black Snake’. While the nickname relates to his speed and elusiveness as a player, some also credit him with initiating Tasmania’s North/South parochial rivalry as a result of his successful coaching at each end of the island.

Coached and played with three different clubs to win nine premierships in a ten-year period.

CAREER HIGHLIGHTS

North Launceston premierships, 1904, 1905, 1906 and 1912.

Mersey premiership, 1908.

Cananore premierships, 1909, 1910, 1911 and 1913.

Inaugural member of the Tasmanian Sporting Hall of Fame.

6 2012 Tasmanian Football Hall of Fame Icon BRENT CROSSWELL brent croswell Carlton / North Melbourne / Melbourne Ruck Rover / Half Forward 1965-1982

The record of Brent ‘Tiger’ Crosswell reads big game player. It includes eight grand finals (all with as coach) for four premierships, one draw (1977) and three losses (1969, 1973 and 1976). In the 1970 and 1975 premierships he was listed as best on ground by many scribes.

Recruited from Campbell Town in Tasmania where he had never played for the senior side, Brent Crosswell made his Carlton debut in the opening round of the 1968 season against Geelong. He performed reasonably well without making the best players list, improving steadily as the season went on to eventually be rewarded with the club's best first year player award. He capped off the season by starring in Carlton's three-point grand final defeat of Essendon.

Two years later he reconfirmed his reputation as a big game player with a best on ground display in the Blues' sensational come-from-behind grand final victory over Collingwood.

Crosswell was a highly skilled, intelligent and often flamboyant player, sufficiently versatile to play equally well in a variety of positions. If he had a weakness it was that he all too often failed to perform at levels commensurate with his ability when there did not appear to be much at stake. However, give him a dry ball and the wide-open spaces of the MCG in September and he was indomitable.

Forced by illness to miss Carlton's 1972 premiership victory, Crosswell rekindled his career and reputation when he moved to North Melbourne in 1975 and starred in the 'Roos’ historic grand final demolition of Hawthorn. If his performances in the 1977 grand final and replay were less auspicious they nevertheless saw him join the exclusive group of players who have participated in four senior premierships at the elite level.

In 1980, after 76 games with North Melbourne adding to the 98 he had played with Carlton, Crosswell moved to Melbourne where he played a further 48 games in his final three seasons of league football, taking his overall tally to 222 games in 15 seasons. He also booted 257 goals and was a VFL representative.

Somewhat incredibly, Brent Crosswell followed super-coach Ron Barassi to North Melbourne and then Melbourne after starting with him at Carlton. Their relationship has been described as a surrogate father/son arrangement characterised by funny and endearing moments. Often driving one another to distraction, they ultimately played a key role in each other’s careers.

In 2004 Crosswell was selected as a half back flank in the official Tasmanian Team of the Century. As well, he achieved a position on the bench in North Melbourne’s Team of the Century.

Crosswell became an inaugural inductee in the Tasmanian Football Hall of Fame in 2005 and in 2007 was elevated to Legend.

2012 Tasmanian Football Hall of Fame 7 2012 Tasmanian Football Hall of Fame Legend LEN PYE

Len ‘Apples’ Pye North Hobart / Fitzroy / New Norfolk Ruckman / Forward 1929-1949

Affectionately known as ‘Apples’, Len Pye was a dynamic ruckman and key position player whose outstanding career was punctuated by the Great Depression and World War Two.

Despite these challenges he dominated TFL football in the 1930s, winning three TFL medals, four club Best and Fairest awards, representing Tasmania three times and playing in five regional TFL and three state premierships. In 1937 Pye won one of two Coronation Medals awarded for best players in celebration games marking King George VI’s ascension to the British throne. After retiring from North Hobart he played briefly with New Norfolk in its first three seasons in the TFL (1947-49).

Len Pye’s performance for Tasmania at the 1933 Australian National Carnival in led to his recruitment by Fitzroy. He topped the Lions’ goalkicking with 39 goals in 1934, his debut season, including a bag of eight against North Melbourne at Arden Street. After managing just a single senior appearance in 1935 he returned to North Hobart.

Commencing in 1929 and concluding in 1949, Pye’s career was exemplified by his efforts with Fitzroy in 1934. At the conclusion of his career he returned to his origins to assist New Norfolk in their first three years of senior TFL football. Pye was a great all round on-baller with exceptional skills and his fair play ensured he was amongst the most highly decorated in the history of the game in Tasmania.

Len Pye was recognised by Tasmania in the Team of the Century in 2004 and also as an inaugural inductee in the Tasmanian Football Hall of Fame in 2005.

8 2012 Tasmanian Football Hall of Fame Legend NOEL ATKINS

Noel Atkins Hobart / North Launceston / Launceston / East Devonport / King Island Rover 1945-1962

Noel Atkins was born in Launceston in 1925 and lived in the area of Invermay that was inundated by floods in 1929. He was thus a quintessential ‘swampy’ and seemed destined to represent North Launceston after starring at football as a junior and being selected as first rover in the State Schoolboys Carnival team in 1939.

However, due to labour shortages caused by the Second World War, his professional career first took him to King Island in 1944 and then to Hobart in 1945 and 1946 as he undertook his first placement and teacher training.

Atkins’ football career blossomed and he was Hobart’s first rover in the club’s initial foray in the Tasmanian Football League. He was also selected as the League‘s first rover when it played against the two northern leagues in the intrastate series.

Atkins proved an impressive young leader during a period of resurgence in football following the Second World War. After completing his teacher training he returned to his roots and took a position at Invermay Primary School. In the period 1947 to 1949 Atkins played a starring role in three NTFA premierships and two state premierships for North Launceston.

A highlight of his time at North Launceston was his selection for the Tasmanian team at the 1947 National Carnival in Hobart. Along with North Launceston teammates Bert Chilcott and Ray Summers, Atkins formed part of the only Courtesy of Mercury Newspaper ruck combination to have represented their club, league and state in the same season.

After the 1947 Carnival Atkins resisted overtures from Carlton because of his commitment to his career in education. It was no surprise that at the young age of 24 he would be pursued as a coach, with first Launceston and then East Devonport benefiting from his skills and knowledge. After taking Launceston to the 1951 Jubilee premiership in the NTFA he had to be content with further runner-up titles in the NTFA and NWFU. A notable feature of his time at East Devonport was his role as coach of a young Darrel Baldock. During this period Atkins also became the first person to have represented all three major regional associations in the intra-state series.

Following the conclusion of his career at the highest level in Tasmania, Atkins returned to King Island as school principal and continued to contribute to community football before spending many seasons as a coach and manager of schoolboy football in north-west Tasmania. Two of his best known pupils were John Greening and Stephen Beaumont, who have also joined him in the Tasmanian Football Hall of Fame.

Noel Atkins has been recognised in the North Launceston, Launceston, King Island and Currie Teams of the Century and was an inaugural inductee in the Tasmanian Football Hall of Fame in 2005.

A champion junior sportsman, Vinar lived in Geelong and played football in the local area before debuting for the Cats in 1959. A highly regarded defender and occasional ruckman, he was also a nationally recognised long kicking champion considered to have the longest and most accurate kick of his era. Bob Davis, his coach during his time with the Cats, thought Vinar had the best he had ever seen. Vinar moved to Tasmania in 1967 to take up the coaching role for Longford after which he became a regular Tasmanian representative, including at the 1969 National Carnival and in Tasmania’s historic victory over in 1970 where he was named best player.
