Linden played as both a forward and follower during his career, which began at Sandringham in 1939.[2] Although he spent seven seasons at South Melbourne, Linden played 58 of his 80 games between 1944 and 1946.[3] He was omitted from the South Melbourne team for the 1945 semi final against Collingwood but returned to the side for the grand final, replacing former Footscray player Roy Porter.[4] A forward pocket in the 1945 VFL Grand Final, Linden contributed two goals but finished on the losing team.[5] After missing very few games in the previous three seasons, he had an injury plagued year in 1947, which included a twisted ankle, sustained when he tripped over a gutter.[6] He died in Bendigo on 5 October 1956, from injuries he received in a car accident.[7] References1. ^Obituary in The Argus, 8 October 1956 {{DEFAULTSORT:Linden, Alan}}2. ^{{cite book|last=Holmesby|first=Russell|last2=Main|first2=Jim|title=The Encyclopedia Of AFL Footballers| publisher=BAS Publishing|year=2007|isbn=978-1-920910-78-5}} 3. ^AFL Tables: Alan Linden 4. ^The Argus,"South's Two Changes", 28 September 1945, p. 15 5. ^{{cite web|url=http://australianfootball.com/articles/view/The+Bloodbath+Grand+Final/182|title=The Bloodbath Grand Final| publisher=Australian Football}} 6. ^The Argus,"Fothergill may have played his last game", 18 June 1947, p. 27 7. ^{{cite news |url=http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article84390099 |title=Crash kills footy star. |newspaper=The Argus |location=Melbourne |date=6 October 1956 |accessdate=20 September 2014 |page=1 |publisher=National Library of Australia}} 7 : 1917 births|1956 deaths|Australian rules footballers from Victoria (Australia)|Sydney Swans players|Sandringham Football Club players|Road incident deaths in Australia|Accidental deaths in Victoria (Australia) |
