Conrad Caesar ten Brink (31 January 1875 – 3 March 1938) was an Australian rules footballer who played with Essendon in the Victorian Football League (VFL).[1]
Early life
Ten Brink was born in the Courthouse Hotel in Smythesdale, Victoria on 31 January 1875.[2] His father, Conrad ten Brink Sr, was a German immigrant from Schleswig-Holstein, who came to Australia as a child in 1854.[3]
The family moved to Albury, New South Wales when Ten Brink was young and his father twice served as the town's mayor, in 1898 and 1906.[4]
Football career
A follower, Ten Brink developed a high reputation during his time with the Albury Football Club and joined Essendon in 1898.[5][6] He played 12 games and kicked 10 goals for Essendon, all in the 1898 VFL season.[7] His final appearance came in the 1898 VFL Grand Final, which he started as a forward, but was unable to register a goal in a 15-point loss.[8][9]
Later years
At the time of his death in 1938, Ten Brink was based in Brisbane.[10]
