Bio
Selected by Melbourne with pick 53 in the 2005 National Draft, Simon Buckley is the son of former Carlton and St Kilda forward Mark Buckley. A pacey half-back flanker capable of breaking lines with his run and carry, he struggled to establish himself at the Demons amid injury setbacks and off-field indiscretions, eventually being delisted at the end of 2009. Collingwood offered him a lifeline with the 85th pick in the draft, where he reinvented himself as a mature-bodied rebounding defender. Although he produced the most consistent football of his career in black and white—playing 13 games in 2011—he was unable to force his way into the Magpies' formidable finals lineup and was delisted following the 2012 season.
