Quick Facts Personal information, Full name ...

Scott played mostly as a ruckman or in defence over the course of his career, which began in 1948 at West Perth. In his first season, he was selected in the Western Australian interstate team and took part in two victories over Victoria.

His VFL stint lasted five seasons, with South Melbourne failing to make the finals in each. He returned to West Perth as captain-coach in 1955 and the following year crossed to Swan Districts where he had the same role.

Scott joined Waverley as their inaugural captain-coach when they joined the VFA for the 1961 competition and kicked 57 goals in his first season.
