http://www.fullpointsfooty.net/n-o.htm#Ivor%20Nicolle%20(Sturt)
Ivor Nicolle's name has been extolled and eulogised at Sturt ever since his last gasp goal in the 1919 challenge final replay against North Adelaide handed the club its second senior premiership, but he deserves to be remembered for a lot more. A stalwart of the Double Blues line-up on either side of World War One, he was an energetic, resourceful and surprisingly pacy ruckman who often had an inspirational effect on his team mates. He arrived at Sturt from Coromandel Valley in 1912 and soon established himself as a regular member of the first ruck, which was where he played when the Blues broke through for their first premiership in 1915 with a 2 goal challenge final victory over Port Adelaide. After a three year break for the war, Nicolle's heroics helped Sturt to a second successive flag in 1919, and perhaps partly inspired by the experience he developed into an even more effective and influential player as he entered the twilight of his career. As late as 1924, his second to last league season, the 'SA Footballer' was describing him as being "in championship form", with his displays late in the year in particular being "a revelation". When Nicolle retired in 1925 he had played a total of 112 SAFL games and kicked 29 goals. He represented South Australia 3 times.
