Bio
Recruited from the Riverina football stronghold of Ganmain in New South Wales, Dudley Mattingly ventured south to try his luck with St Kilda during the 1948 VFL season. Joining a struggling Saints outfit that endured a torrid campaign on its way to the wooden spoon, he found opportunities scarce at the Junction Oval, managing just three senior appearances in his solitary season at the elite level. Unable to cement a regular spot in the side, Mattingly's VFL career was short-lived, and he eventually returned to his home district in the Riverina where he remained a local figure until his passing.
