As scant records have been kept of anything back in the 1890's when the original official competition began, the question would be impossible to answer.
It would be something that results many times each year I would think; aplayer achieved it only 2 weeks ago.
I doubt that anyone would be keeping such records.
However, whilst on the subject of Australian sports:
In Australia's only other sports' invention, the newly-invented GrappaBall [also known as grappleball], the inventor himself, Denis Towers, at nearly 62 years of age, while playing with 20+ year-olds, virtually kicked an AFL-type goal with his very first kick in his own Grappleball game. However, because the game calls for a crossbar under which all goals must be scored, the goal was considered too high and therefore, disallowed, despite that a crossbar had not been installed for the game at that point!
Had the game been scored in AFL style, however, despite his seniority, he would have booted a goal with his very first kick in his own new invention!!

When attacking a goal. If all of the ball passes over the goal line and it was last touched by a defensive player, and a valid goal was not scored (meaning the ball did not enter the goal mouth), the game must be restarted by use of a "corner kick". The ball is placed in the corner arc on the side of the pitch that the ball went out of play and kicked by an attacking player. A goal may be scored directly from a corner-kick. The defending players must be at least 10 yards from the arc before the play can commence.
