Ronald James Cabble (born 10 February 1938) is a former Australian rules footballer who played with Hawthorn in the Victorian Football League (VFL).[1]
Family
The son of William James Cabble (1903-1960),[2][3] and Ruby Fleetwood Cabble (1905-2003), née Croft,[4] Ronald James Cabble was born on 10 February 1938.
Education
He attended Caulfield Grammar School as a boarder from 1953 to 1955.[5] He was a member of the school's tennis team.[6]
He was also a member of the school's football team in 1954 — he was one of six from Caulfield Grammar selected to play for a combined Associated Grammar Schools of Victoria (ASGV) team against Melbourne High School on 13 August 1954[7][8] — and, along with John Schultz and Ron Evans, he was a member of the school's First XVIII that won its fourth consecutive ASGV premiership in 1955.[9]
Football
Hawthorn (VFL)
Having played well with the Seconds during the year, he was selected for his first game, against Geelong on 10 August 1957.[10][11]
In his fourth game for the Hawthorn First XVIII he played in the forward pocket, kicking 3 goals, and named among the team's best players,[12] in the team that defeated Carlton in the 1957 First Semi-Final, at the M.C.G., on 31 August 1957, 10.11 (71) to 6.12 (48). The match was remarkable for two reasons: the M.C.G. was swept by a fierce hail-storm just before the start of the third quarter,[13] and it was the first-ever VFL Finals appearance for Hawthorn. His fifth game was two weeks later, in the Preliminary final, which Hawthorn 11.10 (76) lost to Melbourne 22.12 (144).[14]
In his time at Hawthorn he played in 35 senior games, kicked 14 goals; and, as a half-forward flanker, played in Hawthorn's VFL Second XVIII premiership teams of 1958,[15][16] and 1959.[17]
Old Caulfield Grammarians (VAFA)
On leaving Hawthorn he played two seasons (1964 and 1965)[18][19] with the Caulfield Grammarians Football Club in the Victorian Amateur Football Association (VAFA) until a knee injury forced his retirement from football.
