Frank Marlow


Frank Marlow was secretary of South Adelaide between 1894 and 1911, a period that was fraught with difficulty for the club as the introduction of the electorate system eroded its player base. Marlow’s response was to foster the development of young talent in South’s zone. He later served the SAFL in a similar role between 1912 and 1935.
