Brownlow Medal North Melboume

1965

Noel Teasdale (born 2 January 1938) is a former Australian rules footballer in the Victorian Football League.
Originally from Daylesford, Teasdale made his debut with the North Melbourne Football Club in 1956 playing as a ruckman and for a period, a full-back.
Teasdale was noted for his tough, uncompromising play and in 1964 saw this almost cost him his life - as his head clashed with that of North teammate Ken Dean leaving him in a serious condition in St. Vincent's Hospital. Midway through that same year, Teasdale came back to play for North, taking over the captaincy in the absence of injured skipper Allen Aylett.
The 1965 season saw Teasdale don a headguard (helmet) due to medical advice and this produced his best season yet - tying for the Brownlow Medal with Ian Stewart. Although he originally lost on countback, he was later awarded a retrospective medal.
His VFL career ended in 1967 and he later moved to Woodville Football Club. He is now retired and living in Hervey Bay, Queensland.

Keith Greig (born 23 October 1951) played on the wing for the Australian rules football North Melbourne Football Club from 1971 to 1985. He is considered as one of the most exciting players of the era, earning the nickname "Racehorse" because of his blistering speed on the field.
Greig was recruited from Brunswick in 1971. Greig captained the club from 1976 to 1979, and played a then club record 297 games. He represented Victoria 13 times in the state games, captaining the side once in 1978, and was named an All-Australian in 1983. He won the Brownlow medal twice, in 1973 and 1974.
He is a life member of North Melbourne, and was selected in the AFL's Team of the Century as a wingman. In 1996 Greig was inducted into the Australian Football Hall of Fame.
