Past Player of the Week – George Page

George Frederick Page joined the Norwood Football Club via the Norwood Union Football Club playing in the East Torrens Football Association. His brother Harold also transferred from the same club.

A follower and sometime defender, George Page made his senior debut against West Torrens in Round 10, 1929 – the Redlegs losing the match 10.6 to 13.12. Named as one of the reserves, he came into the side on a half back flank as a late replacement for the injured Joseph C Johns. It was to be his only league game for the season, finding it difficult to break into the powerful line-up, which went on to win the 1929 premiership.
