Stats
Bio
Recruited from Ballarat, Alf Boyack was a diminutive rover who carved out a brief career with Collingwood at the turn of the century. Standing just 168cm, he established himself immediately at Victoria Park, becoming a regular fixture in his debut season and featuring in the 1901 Grand Final loss to Essendon. Despite this strong start, Boyack found opportunities scarce during the Magpies' historic 1902 premiership campaign, adding just five games to his tally and missing out on the flag before departing the league after only two seasons.
