Playing career edit

Recruited from Moe, Rowlings played in Hawthorn's 1975 Grand Final defeat to North Melbourne, kicking the first goal of the game. He was one of Hawthorn's best players in the emotional 1976 premiership triumph.

In 1978 Rowlings suffered a serious knee injury which prevented him from being part of Hawthorn's 1978 triumph, and was cleared to Richmond. In his first season at Tigerland won the Jack Dyer Medal, which is awarded to Richmond's best and fairest player for the season.[1]

After playing career edit

Since 1996[2] Rowlings has been involved with the football program at Caulfield Grammar School and Caulfield Grammarians Football Club, and holds a football ambassador and development coaching role for all year levels.[3][4]

Rowlings has been partly responsible for the football development of many current AFL players, such as Brent Hartigan, Jason Winderlich, Chris Judd, Tristan Cartledge, Matthew Richardson, and Tom Roach.
