Stats
Bio
Recruited from the Hamilton Imperials in Victoria's Western District, John Goldsmith joined Geelong as a 24-year-old defender for the 1956 season. He broke into the senior side midway through the year, largely operating on a half-back flank where he stepped in to cover for established backmen like Geoff Williams. His career at the top level was brief, restricted to just six appearances in the Hoops without registering a goal, and he departed the VFL scene following his solitary season at Kardinia Park.
