}} Edward Charles Rippon (29 April 1914 – 12 December 1991) was an Australian rules footballer who played for Essendon prior to his World War II service for St Kilda after the war in the Victorian Football League (VFL). FamilyThe son of Edward Charles Rippon (1869-1946),[1] and Florence Georgina Rippon (1876-1964), née Kenney, Edward Charles Rippon was born on 29 April 1914. He married Jen Brenda Watson on 26 November 1938.[2] FootballTed Rippon was recruited by Carlton from Cheltenham, however a series of injuries prevented him from breaking into Carlton Seniors. He moved to Essendon in 1933, and made his senior debut against St Kilda on 22 July 1933 (round 13 of the home-and-away season). He was a good, hard working, reliable player for Essendon, winning Essendon's Most Serviceable Player award in 1935, who played the most of his 69 senior games in the ruck. He was often referred to as "Autumn Leaves" because of his propensity to fall over after contesting the ball in the air (Carlton's John Benetti (1958–1965) was also known as "Autumn Leaves Benetti" for a similar reason). He played a number of games for the Carlton Second XVIII in 1939 and 1941, but never played with the First XVIII.[3] After the war, Ted spent two seasons with St Kilda (1944–1945), and played 17 senior games. EssendonTed served on the Essendon Football Club Committee as Vice President from 1950 to 1956. He was a pallbearer at his business associate John Coleman's funeral on 9 April 1973.[4] MediaHe was also a football commentator on both radio (3AW) and television (HSV 7 Melbourne's "World of Sport").
