1980s Photographs from the Claremont archives – Mike Aitken.

Photograph and story on Claremont player Dr. Mike Aitken.  Aitken had a freak surfing accident fracturing 3 vertebrae at the base of his neck.  He was thinking of returning after recovering from the injury and returning to football.  He was considering hanging up his boots when he was selected in the WA side and knows the injury will curtail his career.
