PORT Fairy goalkicker, Jason Rowan etched his name into the Hampden Football Netball League (HFNL) record books kicking his 1021st goal in the side’s 85-point win over Portland on Saturday.

The previous record had been held by Tony Russell who kicked 1020 goals, lots of those coming in the 1990’s playing for South Warrnambool, Koroit and Port Fairy.
