Dick Lee

Walter Henry "Dick" Lee (19 March 1889 to 11 September 1968) was an Australian rules footballer who played for the Collingwood Football Club in the Victorian Football League between 1906 and 1922. Born in Collingwood, the son of the club's long-serving trainer, he was one of the first great forwards of the game, able to win the ball on the ground or in the air, and was considered one of the finest place kickers of his era. In 1912 he became the first senior VFL footballer to have a knee cartilage removed. His last kick in his last match scored Collingwood's final goal in the 1922 Grand Final loss to Fitzroy. He became a Collingwood life member in 1918, was selected on the half-forward flank in the club's Team of the Century in 1998 and was inducted into the Australian Football Hall of Fame in 1996.
