Bio
Recruited from Warracknabeal, Graeme Schultz was a dangerous roving forward whose Essendon career was split into two chapters by a significant tenure in the WAFL. After bursting onto the scene with four goals on debut and establishing himself as a key goal-kicker, he departed for Western Australia in 1975 for study reasons, where he starred for Subiaco and nearly won a Sandover Medal despite a shortened season. New coach Kevin Sheedy convinced him to return to Windy Hill in 1981, where Schultz showcased his trademark courage and finishing ability, notably sealing a famous win against Richmond with a fearless mark. Cruelly, a broken leg in the opening round of 1983 cut his comeback short, though he recovered to feature in the club's reserves premiership side later that year. He finished his career with a season at the Western Bulldogs in 1984, but injury prevented him from adding to his senior game tally.
