Teams

A local junior who cut his teeth with North Melbourne in the VFA, Duncan Lindsay etched his name into folklore as a member of the club's inaugural VFL side in 1925. Assigned Shinboner number 10, he featured in the historic Round 1 upset over Geelong, helping the newcomers record a victory in their first appearance at the elite level. Operating as a handy forward who knew where the goals were, Lindsay proved a reliable contributor during the team's formative phase, notably finishing as the runner-up in the club's goalkicking in 1926. He played his final VFL match that same year, leaving behind a legacy as a foundational piece of North's entry into the competition.
