Bio
Hailing from the small Mallee town of Nullawil, Chris Waterson was a lightly framed but determined utility who cut his teeth at Essendon during the early 1980s. Despite his persistence, he found regular senior selection difficult to come by amidst Kevin Sheedy's powerhouse lineup, though he was a key member of the Bombers' 1983 Reserves premiership side. Seeking greater opportunity, Waterson moved north in 1987 to join the Brisbane Bears as an inaugural squad member. He cemented his place in history by playing in the club's first-ever VFL match against North Melbourne at the MCG, enjoying a more consistent run in the senior side during the Bears' formative years before retiring at the end of 1988.
