Teams

Born in New South Wales—a rarity for VFL footballers of the era—Aubrey Hart arrived at the Junction Oval as a teenager looking to break into senior football. He made his debut for St Kilda in the 1911 season, joining a Saints outfit that was attempting to rebuild after claiming the wooden spoon the previous year. Operating as a forward option, Hart managed to hit the scoreboard during his brief tenure, booting a goal in his limited opportunities, but found it difficult to cement a regular place in the starting eighteen. He remained on the list for the 1912 season, adding to his games tally, but ultimately drifted out of the league after just four senior appearances, standing as one of many young hopefuls who passed through the club during its difficult pre-war era.
