Won the Sunkick at age 16 with a 63 metre punt.

  Came from the same club as Ian Salmon and Ian Dunstan. He and Traralgon forward Adrian Campbell were among the last recruits to be signed under the zoning system, joining Footscray on the eve of the inaugural draft in 1986.

He made his debut in the first round in 1990 and held his spot until breaking his leg against Carlton on Anzac Day. Two years later he established himself in the side, playing senior football until he tore his achilles tendon early in 1996.
