Carlton 1877

Recruited from Carlton where he had been described as ‘a sure kick, and speedy runner’, he developed with Norwood as a fine cool-headed forward and reliable mark. Alf Wishart represented Victorian Residents in a match against the South Australian Natives on 11 May and appeared in 10 games for Norwood.
