Click on images to read more. MICHELLE DEN DEKKER OAM Athlete Member – Netball Michelle den Dekker is one of Australian netball’s most successful captains. She is a two-time World Champion, having led her team to victory in 1991 and 1995. She also won gold at the Auckland 1990 Commonwealth Games. Den Dekker led a dominant Australian team to a remarkable 92 per cent win ratio in a record 71 matches as captain. Widely considered one of the best and cleanest defenders to ever play for the Australian team, Den Dekker also played for the Adelaide Ravens and was voted the greatest netball player to ever come out of South Australia. “It’s an absolute privilege to be a part of this, such illustrious group.” – Michelle den Dekker on being a SAHOF 2020 Inductee CADEL EVANS AM Athlete Member – Cycling Cadel Evans cemented his place as one of the all-time greats of Australian road cycling following his historic 2011 Tour de France win. In doing so, he became the first Australian to conquer one of the world’s biggest races after two previous second-place finishes, among his many appearances in the Tour. Evans’ success wasn’t limited to the Tour de France; across all three Grand Tours he won stages, wore the leader’s jersey and finished the tour on the podium. He became one of the few cyclists to finish on the podium at all three Grand Tours and to win a World Championship, winning the 2009 UCI Road World Championship. “I’ve always felt followed and supported by those at home… When people tell me where they were, who they were with, when they were watching the time trial… I was on the other side of the world, but I feel like I was nearly at home.” – Cadel Evans 04 | 2020 INDUCTEES DAVID FOSTER OAM Athlete Member – Woodchopping David Foster is widely regarded as the greatest axeman Australia has ever seen and, with a staggering 186 world titles over 21 years in woodchopping, probably the world’s best. Foster competed and won at every major event in Australia and New Zealand at least once in his career, including the Wimbledon of woodchopping, the Royal Sydney Show. Foster’s winning ways continued outside of Australia and New Zealand, competing in America where he broke three world records. Foster owns many world records, across multiple categories and wood types. “Unbelievable mate. What a great honour [not just] for me, but for my family and the sport of woodchopping. Almost taken 150 years to get somebody in and I’m so pleased it’s me.” – David Foster on being the first axeman inducted into SAHOF BRIDGETTE GUSTERSON OAM Athlete Member – Water Polo Bridgette Gusterson had an outstanding water polo career, which featured the undoubted highlight of captaining Australia to the first ever women’s water polo gold medal at the Sydney 2000 Olympic Games. In a memorable moment for Gusterson, she scored the winning goal from a clever flick over the Russian goalkeeper’s shoulder to proceed to the gold-medal match. Gusterson debuted for Australia in 1992, subsequently amassing 212 international matches and scoring more than 400 goals. She played in four World Cups and two world championships campaigns before the Sydney Games. “Thank you very much. I really appreciate it. It’s such a wonderful honour and I’ll cherish this forever.” - Bridgette Gusterson on being a SAHOF 2020 Inductee LAUREN JACKSON AO Athlete Member – Basketball Lauren Jackson is widely regarded as one of the all-time greatest females of Australian basketball. She is a four-time Olympian, having won three silver and one bronze medal. Her success also carried into World Championships where she led Australia to gold in 2006 after successive bronze medals in 2002 and 1998. In the USA, Jackson was a key figure in the WNBA where she played for Seattle, winning two championships and three MVPs and is a seven-time WNBA All Star. At home in the WNBL she is a five-time champion with the AIS and Canberra Capitals as well as a four-time MVP and Grand Final MVP winner and five-time WNBL All Star. “Thank you very much. It is an amazing honour and I feel very privileged.” - Lauren Jackson on being a SAHOF 2020 Inductee JILL MCINTOSH General Member – Coach, Netball After being a distinguished player, Jill McIntosh has been a hugely successful netball coach and educator, while also contributing substantially as an umpire. McIntosh’s biggest impact in netball has come from coaching, where she guided the Australian team in 88 matches between 1995 to 2003, losing only six – an impressive 94 per cent winning rate. In this time, McIntosh collected two Commonwealth Games gold medals and two world championships, all of which were unbeaten campaigns. McIntosh has continued to educate the netball fraternity, sitting on coaching committees and advisory panels to provide professional development for coaches around the world. “I feel very humbled to be part of this Hall of Fame with absolute legends in Australian sport ... Thank you very much.” – Jill McIntosh on being a SAHOF 2020 Inductee MATTHEW MITCHAM OAM Athlete Member – Diving Matthew Mitcham rewrote the history books at the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games when, in an astonishing last-gasp performance under extreme pressure, he became the first Australian male diver in 84 years to win an Olympic gold medal, and just the second Australian to do so.

    THE ACTION KICKS OFF THIS SATURDAY NIGHT Sir Peter Leitch Club Newsletter RLWC 2017 24th October 2017 It’s 4 days until the Kiwis play # their first game of the 2017 RLWC 193 Back The Kiwis By Enjoying Lunch By David Kemeys Former Sunday Star-Times Editor, Former Editor-in-Chief Suburban Newspapers, Long Suffering Warriors Fan E ARE only days from the kick-off of the 2017 Rugby League World Cup, with Australia and England W– in what will be a hell of a match - doing the honours on Friday night. Of course the Kiwis take on Samoa on Saturday night at Mt Smart, and that one should be a good game too. League legend Olsen Filipaina is taking the ball out, which is pretty cool given he has represented the Kiwis and Samoa. The game I am looking forward to is the Kiwis v Tonga in Hamilton, because there is not going to be a lot of love lost when those two sides meet, after everything that has gone on. Before a ball is kicked I have the Kiwis lunch at the Ellerslie Events Centre to look forward to on Friday. When Pete asked if I would take it on with Gordon Gibbons and Tony Feasey, I foolishly said yes, not want- ing to let Pete down. But in truth Gordon has been amazing and we have an incredible line-up of Kiwis greats taking to the stage, and players with a long history of World Cup and test glory in attendance. I have been to several of Peter’s Kiwis lunches and enjoyed every one of them.
