Stats
Bio
Recruited from the Riverina town of Tocumwal, Claud Carr was a sturdy ruckman and key defender who arrived at Melbourne with a reputation for strong marking and aerial presence. He broke into the senior side in the latter half of the 1928 season but found opportunities scarce in a Demons lineup that was consistently pushing deep into the finals. Carr managed just four games across two years, serving primarily as a depth player for the club's key position stocks before his VFL career wound down. Following his stint in the city, he returned to the bush and cemented a formidable legacy at Tocumwal, where he eventually captained the club and retired as a premiership player.
