Joe Sellwood

Joseph Reuben Sellwood (24 January 1911 – 18 October 2007) was a New Zealand born[1] Australian rules football player, playing 181 games (180 club, 1 representative) from 1930–1945.

Sellwood, recruited from Goulburn Valley Football Association club Wunghu, made his senior debut for Geelong in the 1930 VFL season and was a member of their 1937 premiership team.

[4] Prior to his death in 2007, Sellwood was recognised as the oldest VFL/AFL premiership player and was given honorary induction into the AFL 200 Club, because his career allegedly suffered significant interruption during World War II, preventing him from reaching 200 games.

Sellwood's interests included playing the piano accordion, keyboard, watching football (particularly the Cats) and being with his family.
