Teams

Recruited from local side Oak Park, Peter Davison was a mid-sized utility who earned a brief call-up to the North Melbourne senior side during the tumultuous 1964 season. Wearing the number 39 guernsey, Davison made his debut in Round 11 against Melbourne, injected into the lineup just one week after the infamous "Battle of Kardinia Park" brawl where coach Alan Killigrew was assaulted. He held his spot for four consecutive matches during a difficult mid-winter stretch for the Shinboners, featuring in clashes against Melbourne, St Kilda, Footscray, and Hawthorn. Unable to impact the scoreboard or secure a permanent role in the starting 18, he was omitted after the Round 14 defeat and returned to the local leagues, leaving his VFL career as a month-long cameo at Arden Street.
