Biography

Claude Frederick Curtin (4 July 1920 – 13 December 1994) was an Australian rules footballer who played with Fitzroy in the VFL.

A full-forward, Curtin was recruited from Fitzroy Catholic Young Men's Society (CYMS) Football Club and made his senior VFL debut in 1939. He kicked over fifty goals in a season on four separate occasions, from 1940 to 1942 and in 1946, topping Fitzroy's goalkicking each time. He would have been a member of the club's 1944 premiership side had he not be away on war service.
