Bio
A mature-age recruit from Ferntree Gully, Percy Beswicke joined Melbourne in 1909 after previously registering a single VFA appearance for Richmond four years earlier. Debuting at 28 years of age midway through the season, he was deployed as a follower and brought in to add experience to a struggling lineup that sat at the bottom of the ladder. Beswicke retained his place for the first half of the following year, serving as a rotational contest player across 16 career matches before his brief stint at VFL level concluded in 1910.
