Bio
Recruited from Queenscliff on the Bellarine Peninsula, Arthur Hewitson arrived at Corio Bay as a mature-age debutant, playing his first VFL match at 27 years of age. Standing 175cm, he featured primarily as a forward option during the 1920 season, managing to hit the scoreboard with three goals across his four senior appearances. His brief tenure at the top level coincided with Geelong's post-war rebuilding efforts, and he departed the league after a single season to return to regional football.
