PAST PLAYER OF THE WEEK - The 1979 Flag!!
Robbert “Clippity” Klomp was a dual Premiership player at Carlton and one of the most effective lock-down defenders of his generation - although to a legion of football fans from all clubs, he was better known as “the bloke who won the television” after a quirky incident early in his career. More about that later.Klomp was born in Holland in 1955, before his family emigrated to South Australia. Growing up, he embraced the Australian code of football with Heathfield-Aldgate United in the Hills Football League, where he won the competition’s Under-16 Mail Medal in 1971. A year later he was acclaimed as Best All Round Player for Sturt Colts in the SANFL, and his meteoric rise continued when he was promoted to Sturt’s senior squad to play at centre half-forward in the Double Blues’ 1974 and 1976 Premiership sides. Between those twin triumphs, Robbert captained South Australia’s Under-21 team in 1975. He made his interstate debut at centre half-back for South Australia against Western Australia in 1977, and shortly after that agreed to join Carlton.
