Biography

Ex-West Adelaide (SA) forward who possessed great natural speed. He showed potential in his early games, but his first season ended early with a fractured collarbone sustained in a fierce shirtfront with Lenny Hayes. It took a long time for him to return in 2006, but he showed in a couple of games that he could be a worthwhile forward. He missed most of 2007 with a shoulder reconstruction, then re-injured the shoulder in the opening game of 2008 and missed another year. In 2009 he smashed a cheekbone and in 2010 had hip flexor and groin problems before retiring in September.
