Edit Profile
Career
George had a strong start to his VFL career, kicking five goals on his debut, against Essendon at VFL Park, setting a new club record. Before arriving at Fitzroy for his single season stint, George played with Swans Districts in the Western Australian National Football League (WANFL) from 1969 to 1975. A full-forward, he topped their goalkicking in 1969, 1973 and 1974.
During that season he put in one particularly memorable performance against West Perth when he kicked fourteen goals, still a Swan Districts club record.
George, who took many good overhead marks, represented Western Australia in three interstate matches, for 11 goals, and was in their squad for the 1975 Knockout Carnival. In 1977 he took the field for Geraldton and then crossed to Central District in South Australia.
The full-forward spent three seasons at Central and was their leading goalkicker in 1978 with 68 goals.
