Denis Marshall has played 175 games for Claremont between 1958 – 1972. He also played several seasons in the VFL with Geelong.
Three photographs are here: (1) in 1969 at Claremont he returned as captain coach after 5 seasons at Geelong. (2) On the cover of the magazine “The Western Footballer” and (3) Denis Marshall and his wife Wendy.
This man is one of the top 12 footballers in Australia. But he is the complete contradiction of the old image as a footballer – a fashion trend setter , a sought after male model in Victoria, a fast rising business executive and a captain coach. The girl is one of the nation’s most beautiful and best-known models, chosen as Australia’s mannequin of the Year in 1967. It was always obvious they would marry.
