Was 21 years old and on leave from the AIF when he scored two tries for St George in the ‘State Cup’ final of 1944, his first appearance in any competition in Saints’ top side. Because of the War, he did make his premiership debut until the opening round in 1946. Was about 17 stone (108kg) and stood 6ft 1½in (182cm). After four first-grade games, was in the NSW team to play Great Britain, but a sprained wrist, concussion and bouts of malaria slowed him until the finals, when he was outstanding, especially on grand final day when some rated him man of the match. Hardly played in 1947, and was continued to battle illness and injury until the 1949 finals, when he as magnificent as the Dragons claimed their second premiership. Moved to Queensland in 1950 but returned to play one more first-grade game during the following season

Played a total of 42 games for St George
