Recruited from the Golden Point Football Club in the Ballarat Football League, Artie Ferguson was a defender who made an immediate impact at Footscray. He enjoyed a seamless transition to VFL level, playing all 18 games in his debut 1936 season—a testament to his consistency and durability in the Bulldogs' backline. Standing 180cm, Ferguson was a reliable fixture in the defensive half during a lean period for the club.

He eventually returned to country Victoria and passed away in Wodonga in 1969.
