About Barry Goodingham
Born 1945. Barry Goodingham is an australian rules football player.
Barry Goodingham (born 9 May 1945) was a regular first ruckman for the North Melbourne Football Club and South Melbourne in the Victorian Football League (VFL) during the late 1960s and early 1970s.
Nicknamed 'Lurch', due to his resemblance to the butler in the television sitcom The Addams Family, he captained North Melbourne in 1971.
Recruited from Edithvale-Aspendale, where he played in their 1965 Morningron Peninsula premiership, he was selected in North Melbourne's first Premiership team in 1975, where he shared the ruck duties with team mate, Mick Nolan.
Goodingham finished his VFL career with a two-year stint at South Melbourne, traded in a deal that sent Peter Keenan to North Melbourne. He then went to South Australia and played for three years for Woodville, the last two as playing coach.
