Lion-hearted South Adelaide ruckman Peter Darley won an incredible seven Knuckey Cups as the Panthers’ best-and-fairest across his distinguished 206-game career from 1962 to 1974.
 

An integral member of the Panthers’ famous 1964 premiership team, Darley - who booted a total of 123 goals - was the club’s captain from 1967 to 1969 and in 1971.

The proud South Australian also donned the Croweaters’ guernsey on 13 occasions, receiving All-Australian honours at the 1969 carnival.

Introduced in 1992, the Carey-Darley Cup is contested annually by South Adelaide and Glenelg in honour of Darley and Tigers ruckman Peter Carey.
