Biography

Bob Pratt, Jr (born 24 March 1936) is a former Australian rules footballer who played with South Melbourne in the Victorian Football League (VFL).
Pratt played as a forward for South Melbourne during his debut season in 1955, including the full-forward position that his father, Bob Pratt senior, had excelled. He had forced his way into the team after scoring 21 from three games in the seconds. His 24 VFL goals that year were enough to finish second in the South Melbourne goal-kicking and included hauls of five goals against Geelong and six against Richmond.
He was used mostly as a half forward flanker for the rest of his career, which ended in 1958 when he announced his retirement, citing business commitments.
