Stats
Bio
Recruited from South Bendigo, Mark Daffey arrived at Hawthorn in 1930 to bolster the ranks of a struggling lineup during the club's "Mayblooms" era. Standing at just 173cm and weighing a slight 67kg, Daffey was a diminutive rover and forward pocket who gave away significant size to his opponents but used his agility to impact the contest. He became a regular fixture in the side during a lean period for the club, managing to boot 26 goals over four seasons while alternating between the ball and the forward line. Daffey's time at Glenferrie Oval concluded after the 1933 season, marking him as a serviceable contributor who battled hard during one of Hawthorn's most difficult developmental phases.
