Distinguished and Famous people from Moe and Newborough

🏉 Barry Rowlings

Barry Rowlings established a formidable record at Moe, winning five club and three competition best-and-fairest awards before joining Hawthorn in 1975. Country zoning initially prevented Richmond from recruiting him, but the Tigers eventually secured him after his Hawthorn premiership and a serious knee injury. He responded by winning Richmond’s best-and-fairest in his first season there and contributing to the 1980 premiership. Speed, precise left-foot kicking and relentless fitness became his trademarks. The Moe years were substantial senior football, laying the foundation for a career that ultimately brought premierships at two league clubs.

🏉 Peter Somerville

Peter Somerville came from Moe to become an Essendon ruckman, following his father John into the club. His 160-game career included the 1993 premiership. Football was only part of the working week: he completed a plumbing apprenticeship and combined daytime trade work with evening training. After retirement he moved into coaching and teaching plumbing in Queensland, finding that the communication skills overlapped. His biography gives Moe a connection not just with a premiership player, but with a sporting generation for whom a practical occupation and league football commonly developed side by side.
