Bio
Bill Henderson began his football journey with the North Melbourne Juniors before breaking into the VFL ranks with Richmond in 1909. Stationed primarily in the back pocket, he managed five senior appearances and booted his solitary career goal during his brief stint at Punt Road. He made a mid-season switch to Melbourne in May 1910, joining a lineup that was enduring a particularly turbulent and unsuccessful era on the field. Henderson served as a defensive option for his new club for two seasons before departing the league in 1913 to extend his career in the VFA with Brighton.
