Shane Ellen

Ellen, a Footscray local, made his debut with the Bulldogs in 1993, and when he left in 1995 he had played just 11 games for 1 goal.

In the first half he booted two goals from full-forward, playing there in place of the injured Tony Modra.

He was then switched to the half-back line by coach Malcolm Blight, which proved to be an inspired move – Ellen kicked three of his five goals for the match after half-time.

[1] This amazing performance was accentuated by the fact he had kicked just three goals in his previous 38 AFL matches.
