JOCK SPENCER, of North Melbourne, played a great part in the rise of his club last season, and, as he is still only 21 years, he is likely to be a power in the game for a number of years.
Jock is a good mark, and is the lively type who does not give up when he does not mark the ball. He kicks well, particularly the long punt for goal. When he first played with the seniors he had a tendency to kick the ball into the man on his mark when he was shooting for goal, but he quickly lost that habit. In 34 games* up to the end of last season he had kicked 94 goals.
He is a wharf labourer, and is single. Quiet and well spoken, he enjoys his association with the club officials and players, and plays a good game of cricket in the summer.
