Wally Donald
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Wally Donald (born May 27, 1927, died November 8, 2003) was recruited by Footscray Football Club (now Western Bulldogs) in the Victorian Football League, now Australian Football League, in 1946 from Braybrook.
His unique understanding with full-back Herb Henderson, made for an almost impassable backline. He was a member of Footscray's 1954 premiership team (playing his landmark 150th game in the Grand Final), and was chosen as a member of the Bulldogs Team of the Century in 2000.
Donald played a total of 205 games for one goal, won Best and Fairest in 1949 and was runner-up in 1952, 1953 and 1954. He retired in 1958.
