ken hunter -lrb- born 28 april 1957 in perth , western australia -rrb- is a former champion australian rules football player who played for the carlton football club in the vfl -lrb- now afl -rrb- .
recruited from claremont , wa , where he played 99 games between 1975 and 1980 , he was known for his courage , sustaining three broken jaws within two years .
coming to carlton in 1981 , he had a near perfect induction into the vfl , with the blues winning the premiership , and being voted club best and fairest playing mainly as a half back flanker .
quickly becoming a fan favourite with his high leaping ability and determination , he had another stellar season in 1982 , with the blues winning back to back flags .
1983 saw hunter showing his versatility , playing more on-ball and in the forward line and ended up leading the carlton goalkicking for the season .
he also won the mark of the year that season , with a mark taken running into a pack with the flight of the ball , further reflective hunter 's reputation for courageous play .
in round 11 of 1984 he kicked eight goals against footscray and in 1988 he kicked six goals from just eight kicks against the brisbane bears .
in 1987 , hunter won a third premiership as a club veteran and vice-captain , playing under captain stephen kernahan .
post football he was a board member for the carlton football club serving under presidents john elliott -lrb- 1993 -- 2002 -rrb- and ian collins -lrb- 2002 -- 2006 -rrb- .
he is the father of former melbourne football club player cameron hunter , who currently plays with vfl club box hill hawks .
