Everything about Peter Burgoyne totally explained
Peter Gabriel Burgoyne (born
January 29,
1978) is an
indigenous (
Nunga)
Australian rules footballer playing primarily in midfield and on the halfback flank. He is the elder brother of fellow Port Adelaide player,
Shaun Burgoyne and is the son of former
Port Adelaide player Peter Burgoyne Snr.
Beginning his
AFL career with the inaugural
Port Adelaide side to enter the AFL, Burgoyne has become well-regarded for his performance as an attacking midfielder. He was selected straight from the
Port Adelaide side in the
SANFL in their changeover from one league to the other.
Honours include being selected as part of the
International rules series in 1999 and was a vital part of Port's premiership side of 2004. Burgoyne was also named in the
Indigenous Team of the Century. Despite being selected for and representing South Australia in the final State of Origin game versus Victoria in 1999, Burgoyne wasn't technically eligible under the existing rules, having resided in the Northern Territory and not SA for the majority of his life between the ages of 10 and 17.
In 2007 Burgoyne made a highly successful transition to the halfback flank following an injury-riddled 2006 in his usual midfield role, finishing third in the club's Best and Fairest count. His tremendous finals series was also acknowledged with the Power's 'Best Finals Player' award.
