Stats
Bio
Norm Andrews was a country recruit from Pakenham who was given a brief trial during a tumultuous period for the Fitzroy Football Club. Joining the Maroons for the 1936 season, Andrews was brought into a side that ultimately claimed the wooden spoon that year, with the club cycling through players in an attempt to find form. He played primarily as a wingman, making four senior appearances and managing a single goal in his short stint at the top level. Unable to cement a permanent place in the struggling lineup, Andrews' VFL career was confined to that single month of football before he drifted out of the league, with his home club of Pakenham going on to win the premiership in the local district league later that same year.
