Forward who debuted as a 30-year-old at Richmond in <1908> and played two seasons before joining Port Melbourne. In <1911> he was recruited by Melbourne where he debuted on his 33rd birthday - the second oldest player from another club to play a game - but he wasn't a success at half-forward and was never picked again.
In July <1913> he was cleared to Brighton Juniors, presumably as coach.
Notes
Some sources say he went to Port Melbourne after playing for Melbourne.
