Stats
Bio
Recruited from Wodonga in the Ovens and Murray Football League, Kevin Webb was a rover who managed a brief VFL career split between two clubs in the post-war era. He made his debut for Richmond in 1949, playing seven matches and kicking three goals, but was unable to secure a permanent place in the Tigers' lineup. After spending a season out of senior ranks, Webb crossed to Melbourne for the 1951 season, where he added another four games to his career tally while providing depth to the Demons' midfield rotation. His time at the elite level concluded after just 11 appearances, typifying the transient nature of fringe players competing for spots in strong metropolitan sides during the early 1950s.
