Stats
Bio
Recruited from the Naval Base football club on the Mornington Peninsula, Percy Kay was a solid 180cm utility who made a brief appearance for St Kilda during the 1932 VFL season. He broke into the senior lineup for the Round 4 clash against Essendon at the Junction Oval, joining a Saints outfit that was struggling to find consistency in the early rounds. Kay held his spot for three consecutive matches, playing a role in a side battling against the stronger teams of the competition, but was unable to trouble the scorers or cement a permanent position. His tenure at the top level was confined to that single month of football, after which he drifted out of the VFL system, leaving his mark as one of the many depression-era players who stepped up for a short but documented stint in the big league.
