Stats
Bio
Recruited from Mentone, Frank Stewart was a diminutive rover who made a brief appearance for Hawthorn during the club's lean years in the early 1930s. Standing at just 166cm, he was one of the shortest players in the competition, relying on a low centre of gravity and a stocky frame to win possession in the contest. Stewart was given a four-game trial in the senior side during the 1931 season, a period when the Mayblooms were aggressively churning through players in an attempt to find a competitive formula. He failed to register a goal during his short tenure and was eventually omitted, returning to lower-level football after his solitary season at VFL level.
