Stats
Bio
Recruited from the local Chilwell Football Club, Bill Moulden was a steady defender whose time at Corio Oval was heavily impacted by the turbulent backdrop of the First World War. After debuting in 1914, his senior career was stalled when Geelong withdrew from the VFL competition during the conflict, leaving him without a game at the highest level for two full seasons. He returned to the lineup in 1917 and established himself as a consistent contributor in the backline, playing a disciplined role that rarely saw him venture forward to hit the scoreboard. Moulden’s tenure was ultimately cut short by persistent knee injuries, which forced him to hang up the boots following the 1920 season.
