Stats
Bio
A recruit from Cheltenham who initially cut his teeth with Richmond in the VFA, George Morrison was a fringe player for St Kilda during the VFL's infancy. He made his debut in the competition's inaugural 1897 season but managed just a solitary appearance that year, with his tenure reportedly interrupted by a move to Western Australia. After a hiatus, Morrison returned to the Saints' lineup in 1899 following a clearance from Richmond, adding five more senior games to his record. He played his football during a brutally difficult era for St Kilda, and while he never tasted victory in his six career matches, he remains a part of the club's foundation-era history.
