Bio
Recruited from Caulfield Grammar, Peter Morcom was a tall forward prospect who made a brief but productive cameo for St Kilda during the war-affected 1944 season. Standing at 188cm, he offered a strong marking target inside 50 and immediately found the goals, booting four majors across his three senior appearances. Despite showing promise as a key position option who could hit the scoreboard, his VFL career was confined to a single month of football, standing as one of many players who filled a role for the Saints during the tumultuous wartime era before fading from the league level.
