Alan Arkey

Arkey began his first grade career in 1951. Arkey was a member of the North's teams in the 1950s where the club made the preliminary finals in 1952 and 1953 but lost to South Sydney and in the semi-finals in 1954 where they lost to St George.

In the 1953 preliminary final, Arkey had a shot at goal nearing full-time from the sideline to send Norths into the grand final but missed his attempt at goal and Souths held on to win the match 5–4.

Arkey retired at the end of the 1958 season and was the record point scorer at the club until he was overtaken by Jason Taylor.

Arkey also jointly holds the record at Norths for most goals kicked in a single match when he kicked 10 goals against Western Suburbs in 1953 and against Eastern Suburbs in 1954.

Arkey later became a life member of the club and died on 18 June 2006.^[2][3]
