1927 pre-season follower, half-back or forward. Travelled to Victoria to try his luck in the VFL, but was refused a clearance to Melbourne by the WA League. The VFL also blocked him from playing Melbourne as he had out of their district and into Carlton's area before he was eligible. He then transferred to Brunswick in June 1927, and in mid-1928 he returned to Western Australia and intended to play for East Fremantle again. He asked for his clearance to Victoria to be cancelled, by the WA League made him apply for a clearance from Brunswick. As the deadline for clearances had passed, he had to wait until the next season. He played for East Fremantle again from 1929 to 1932
