Stats
Bio
A robust key-position player standing 183cm, George Millard was a local product from Prahran who earned a brief but successful run with St Kilda during the 1936 season. Making his debut in a Round 9 victory over Footscray at the Junction Oval, the heavy-set utility was brought into the side to add size to the lineup and held his spot for seven appearances. He notably featured in four wins during this short stint, coinciding with the Saints' strongest run of form for the year, often battling in the ruck or defence to support the likes of Bill Mohr and Stan Lloyd. Unable to secure a permanent position for the following season, he later transferred to the VFA to represent his home suburb of Prahran in 1938 before his football career was curtailed by his service in the Australian Army during the Second World War.
