Re: Big Footy St Kilda Player of the Year

Hey guys, bit off topic I know... But does anyone remember Tim Pekin for the Sainters. Played over 100games early 90's. Can some Saint supporters give me a run down of the player he was?

 

[St DAC]

Pekin came to the Saints from Fitzroy, and played half back/wing. Was a decent player in the late 80's/early 90's I think. He's written a couple of articles for The Age over the past couple of years about his playing days.

 

[SAYNTS.A1]

He played his first game for the Saints in 1990 after being picked up in the March draft of that year. He also played in a final with us in 1991.

 

[sainter]

He wasn't the most skillful player going around but was a fine servant for many years after crossing over from Fitzroy.

 

[Otiman]

He wore the number 41 and had a cult following among some of the 16-25 year old saints fans. It was due to his name, but i'll leave the rest up to you.
