Charlie Pearson

Charlie Pearson was an Australian rules footballer who played with Essendon during the 1880s. He is credited as being one of the first people to attempt high flying marks where a player jumps on the back of another in order to take a mark.[1]

Due to his work at a rural sheep station in Queensland he only played sporadically for Essendon but in 1886 was named as the Champion of the Colony.
