Stats
Bio
Recruited from Port Melbourne Railway United, Billy Moxham made an immediate impact at Lake Oval, finding himself in a Grand Final side during his debut season in 1907. A wingman noted for his role in the club's golden era, Moxham tasted the ultimate success two years later as a member of South Melbourne's history-making 1909 premiership team that defeated Carlton to claim the club's first VFL flag. Despite a brief senior career spanning just four seasons and 29 games, his legacy is secured as a premiership player who featured in two season deciders. He remained involved in the league after hanging up his boots, serving as a VFL boundary umpire for several years between 1913 and 1919.
