Bio
Recruited from local club Bentleigh-McKinnon, Geoff Harrold worked his way through the Melbourne scholarship and junior ranks to earn a senior debut in 1972. Standing 185cm, he played two matches for the Demons in his maiden season but found his VFL career abruptly curtailed by an employment transfer to Canberra the following year. While lost to the Victorian top flight, Harrold forged a distinguished career in the ACTFL, overcoming initial clearance disputes to become a standout player for West Canberra. He claimed three Best and Fairest awards with the club and represented the ACT on more than 15 occasions before finishing his playing days as an assistant coach at Queanbeyan.
