Stats
Bio
Recruited from VFA club Footscray, Henry Whight arrived at Princes Park in June 1904 as a mid-season reinforcement for Jack Worrall's emerging powerhouse. He managed seven senior appearances in his sole season at VFL level, providing depth for a Carlton side that finished second on the ladder but ultimately missed out on the premiership. Unable to cement a permanent spot in a lineup on the verge of a dynasty, he was cleared to Yarraville Britannia in May 1905 before later continuing his career with Williamstown. Whight's brief tenure serves as a footnote in the formative years of the Blues' first golden era.
