Australian Football Hall of Fame: 2026 inductees to be unveiled; new Legend to be celebrated
It’s that AFL night of nights on again for another year – the latest inductees in the Australian Football Hall of Fame are to be unveiled. There are always big names. Tonight is no different. Another Legend in the hall of fame will be celebrated, too.
It’s a Western Australia star, Bill Walker, who was named as a new Legend back in February. Walker is his 80s but is at the function, and is about to speak to the crowd.
Walker says he defied his father’s orders and went north in WA to play in the bush.
Walker played in flags in his first three seasons after making his debut in 1961. A classic rover-forward, he kicked 456 goals in 305 matches with Swan Districts and played 21 state matches for Western Australia. He finished his career in 1975 as a four-time premiership player and five-time club best and fairest.
