A fast and exceptionally elusive centreline player with a delightfully accurate left foot pass. He tied for the first Sandover medal but was awarded posthumously in 1997. His senior career between 1914 and 1928 was interrupted by Great War service and included four pioneering seasons with Glenelg in the SANFL and three interstate carnivals.
