Stats
Bio
Born in neighbouring Richmond, William "Bill" Drew was a local talent who earned his opportunity with Fitzroy during the 1910 VFL season. Operating primarily as a forward, he showed an ability to hit the scoreboard, contributing four goals across his eight senior appearances for the Maroons. He joined the squad during a competitive era where the club finished just outside the finals, playing alongside Fitzroy greats such as Percy Parratt and Wally Johnson. Despite his serviceable return in front of goal, Drew’s time at the top level was fleeting, and he departed Brunswick Street after a single season in the league.
