Peter David Sartori is a former Australian rules football player who played for the Carlton Football Club and the Fitzroy Football Club in the AFL and Swan Districts Football Club in the WAFL throughout the mid to late 1980s and early 1990’s. He commenced his career at Swan Districts in 1981 after being recruited from Redcliffe [4]. He missed the 1982 finals due to a kidney injury sustained at an exhibition game in Esperance midway through the season. He continued playing in 1983 and helped his club win both the 1983 and 1984 Grand Finals playing both as a ruckman and at centre half forward. Sartori left Swan Districts in 1986 after six seasons in which he had played 82 games and kicked 119 goals in the number 15 guernsey. He joined the Carlton Football Club in 1987 and played 54 games for the club wearing the number 18 guernsey. A tall key forward he played 57 games for the blues and kicked 114 goals. A hamstring injury in 1987 cost him a spot in the 1987 premiership side. After the 1991 season Sartori was traded as part of a complex deal to Fitzroy Football Club. He managed to play only 23 games in three seasons after suffering many injuries including a major knee injury in 1992 [5]. and retired at the end of the 1994 season.
