Dave Duff


David E. Duff was an Australian rules footballer who played with Melbourne in the Victorian Football League.
Although he spent just one season at Melbourne, Duff was a member of a premiership team. He kicked a season best seven goals against Hawthorn at Glenferrie Oval in round 18 and continued his form in the finals with three goals in both the semi-final and preliminary final wins. In the 1926 VFL Grand Final he was Melbourne's full-forward and managed two goals.
Duff then became a prolific goal-kicker for Ballarat and in 1927, his first year, set a Ballarat Football League record tally of 113 goals. The record remained until 1953, when surpassed by Redan forward Bill Wells. He also topped the league's goal-kicking in 1928 and 1929.
