One of many State Schoolboy representatives who graduated to WAFL and State football with distinction. Generally a half-back flanker, he played efficiently at centre-half-back and thrived when opposed to big-name forwards. Slightly built, he had great capacity to nullify bigger players, such as Victorian full-forward Peter McKenna, who often struggled to shake off McAullay in the interstate arena. Prided himself on not letting rival forwards kick goals against him.
