Terry
Gordon was an inspiration player and Captain for Mines
Rovers Football Club. Throughout his career, Terry was known
for his courage and determination.
Those of us lucky enough to have witnessed the 1991 Grand
Final, our first grand final win in 19 years, have no doubt
that Terry's courage was a major factor in us winning.
A series of knee injuries shortened Terry's career, but being
the true Diorite that he is, continues to be actively involved
in the Club as a Director and assists Merv Dellar as the Bench
Coach on match days.
