Bio
The younger brother of Collingwood premiership player Gus Dobrigh, Leo was a Gippsland recruit who managed fleeting appearances for two League clubs. A wingman or half-forward flanker originally from Mirboo North, he made a solitary senior appearance for Melbourne in 1920 before immediately returning to country football. He resurfaced three years later at Punt Road, playing two games for Richmond on permit while based in Yallourn, but ultimately preferred regional football over a permanent move to the city.
