Ken Hunter is inducted into the Australian Football Hall of Fame.
Hunter considers his career as one split in two halves.
There was the half that featured 99 games, two All Australian guernseys and 12 state appearances with WAFL side Claremont, and there was the half that featured 147 games, three premierships and a best and fairest with VFL powerhouse Carlton.
When he first investigated the possibility of moving across the Nullarbor to Victoria as a teenager, VFL clubs shied away from the scrawny West Australian and were wary of his reckless on-field nature.
"I wasn't about to change the way I played," Hunter said.
"Even after people said I was too reckless and that I should give the game away, it was all about trying to win the footy and not worrying about the consequences."
