Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Use Australian English Шаблон:Infobox AFL biography Brian J. Winton (born 28 July 1963) is a former Australian rules footballer who played with Richmond, Essendon and St Kilda in the Victorian Football League (VFL).

Winton was a gifted forward in his youth, topping the goal-kicking in the 1982 Under-19s competition. [1] The former Wentworth played was promoted to the Richmond seniors in 1983. He was used mostly as a defender in the VFL and crossed to Essendon after just one season at Richmond.

In his first two seasons with Essendon, the club won premierships, and as a result he was only able to break into the team on three occasions during this time.[2] After another brief season in 1986, Winton played 20 of a possible 22 games in the 1987 VFL season, playing as a full-back.[3] When Essendon were unable to satisfy his salary expectations, he was released by the club and signed by St Kilda, with the first pick of the pre-season draft.[4]

Although he kicked three goals on his St Kilda debut, against the Brisbane Bears, Winton played just four more league games.[2] He then played for both Prahran and Sandringham in the Victorian Football Association, followed by a stint as coach of Cheltenham from 1996 to 1999 .
