Stats
Bio
A mature-age recruit from the Wimmera, Len Clearson was plucked from Stawell to make his VFL debut for Geelong at the relatively advanced age of 27. He was brought into the side late in the 1928 season, serving as a forward option during the club's run home. Clearson managed to hit the scoreboard with two goals during his brief month-long stint at the top level but was unable to secure a long-term position at Corio Oval. His senior career was ultimately limited to four consecutive games to close out the home-and-away season before he departed the league.
