Championship played at Adelaide in June 1969, Title won by Victoria. Peter Walker Born: 12/06/1942 From: Beeac Height: 183cm Weight: 76kg Natural kicking foot: Right Guernsey number: 34 First senior match: Round 3, 1960 v Fitzroy at the Brunswick Street Oval After taking time to settle at senior level, he found his rightful place on the half-back line. Once he gained confidence, he became a champion, dashing player who could mark above taller opponents and swing Geelong into attack instantly with fine disposal. His duels with Darrel Baldock of St Kilda were outstanding during the 1960s. He always played the game fairly and followed coaches’ instructions to the letter.

He was a magnificent high mark and a great handball exponent. His ability to maneuver his body into correct position at ruck contests and in marking duels was equal to that of Graham Farmer. He worked hard to overcome severe kidney and ankle injuries to play 300 matches for Geelong in a magnificent 17-season span.
