Len Thompson

Collingwood team-of-the-century member, five-time Copeland Trophy winner and 1972 Brownlow Medallist Len Thompson dies at his home. It is thought the VFL 300-game ruckman had a heart attack. He was 60.

Thompson marks over Carlton's ace ruckman John Nichols. A champion in his own right Thompson battled against some of the game's greats including Nichols and Geelong star Polly Farmer.
