Stats
Bio
Recruited from Caulfield, Sam Everon was a diminutive utility who earned his brief opportunity at VFL level during the tumultuous final season of the Second World War. Standing at just 173cm, he joined a St Kilda outfit that struggled for consistency throughout 1945, eventually making his debut in Round 10 against Footscray. Everon managed only two senior appearances in the red, white, and black before drifting out of the league's top flight, a common fate for many wartime recruits who filled list spots during the conflict years. His football journey remains a quiet footnote in the club's history, marked tragically by his premature death in 1960 at the age of just 37.
