Ken Fletcher (footballer)

Ken Fletcher (born 21 January 1948) is a former Australian rules footballer who played for the Essendon Bombers. He is the father of Dustin Fletcher who was drafted into the club through the father son rule.

Fletcher was a versatile footballer and played in many positions during his 264 game career for the Bombers. He excelled as a wingman and half back flanker.

He won the club's best and fairest award in 1978 and represented Victoria throughout the 1970s. A broken leg forced him to retire in 1980 and he left the club as their 4th most experienced player of all time.

In Round 13 of 2008, Ken and his son Dustin claimed the record of most VFL/AFL games played by a father-son combination, with 552 games between them.
