Stats
Bio
Recruited from Turvey Park in the Riverina, Mark Fraser was a utility player who represented South Melbourne during the club's final, tumultuous years at the Lake Oval. Arriving in the late 1970s as part of the Swans' increasing focus on New South Wales country zones, he struggled to command a permanent spot in the senior side, often finding himself on the fringe of selection. Standing 180cm, Fraser was capable of filling gaps in various positions but lacked the specialist traits to make a role his own, managing just a single goal across his brief tenure. His career concluded just prior to the club's historic relocation to Sydney, marking him as one of the last generation of players to don the red and white solely for the old South Melbourne entity.
