William Sydney Nettlefold (born 24 April 1953) is a former Australian rules footballer who played with Richmond, North Melbourne and Melbourne in the Victorian Football League (VFL).[2]
Nettlefold spent time in most positions during his career but was used mainly as a ruck-rover.

In 1980 he crossed to Melbourne and remained there for three seasons to bring his final VFL tally to exactly 100 games.
