Career
A half forward flanker, Gill ended his first league season in 1962 with an appearance in a grand final, where Carlton would be defeated by Essendon. Gill missed a total of just three games 1965 and 1966 but suffered a career-ending injury in 1967. In the first round of the season, against Fitzroy, Gill had kicked a career best three goals before he tore a knee cartilage and was taken off the ground.
Although he returned to the team four rounds later, Gill re-injured his leg and had to retire.
He however continued to play at his former club, Casterton, in the Western Border Football League.
