I rise to recognise the life of Warren Van Kalker, a Sydney football legend and south-west Sydney local who recently passed. Born in Holland, Warren, or Wazza as he was known, migrated to Australia at the age of two with his parents. A natural sportsman, Warren took an interest in every sport he could play and captained all his school's sports teams. His sporting career really began however after he started playing soccer at age 7, before coming into his own playing rugby union, which he later played for his school and state. After his family moved to South Australia, Warren became attracted to AFL, which he developed a love for and played for the rest of his life. Returning to NSW in 1969, he was promoted to the Liverpool Eagles first grade team and played for NSW in the early 1970s and Southern Districts, playing over 1000 'A' grade games. Warren was always focused on the improvement of young players and in encouraging loyalty. He is survived by his wife, Sue, daughter, Katy, and his grandchildren. My sincere condolences to all that loved him, I know he made Liverpool a better place.
