Bruce Andrew

Cyril Bruce Andrew (28 February 1908 – 6 June 1996) was an Australian rules footballer, who played for Collingwood Football Club in the Victorian Football League (VFL) before becoming a football administrator and television commentator.

He was famous for his immaculate hairstyle, with its signature centre-parting: " hair was parted so emphatically down the centre that it was claimed he used a theodolite" (Ross, 1996, p220).

His services to the VFL were honoured by the awarding of VFL Life Membership, and his subsequent induction into the Australian Football Hall of Fame.

Famous quotes containing the word bruce:

    A lot of people say to me, “Why did you kill Christ?” “I dunno ... it was one of those parties, got out of hand, you know.” We killed him because he didn’t want to become a doctor, that’s why we killed him.
    —Lenny Bruce (1925–1966)
