Career

Although Carlton tried recruiting him, Stewart opted to join Street Kilda in 1905. He was used as a centreman originally but ended up spending most of his time on a half forward flank and topped Street Kilda"s goal-kicking in both 1907 and 1908, with 21 and 28 goals respectively. He returned to North Melbourne in 1911 and then spent a season with Carlton.

Achievements

• His best effort in 1907 was a seven-goal haul in a win over Geelong at Corio Oval, breaking the club record, which had stood at four goals.

Membership

Stewart was a wingman in North Melbourne"s 1903 Victorian Football Association premiership team and was also a member of the side which were awarded the premiership the following year.
