Bio
Recruited from North Melbourne Juniors, Teddy Buist commenced his league football journey with South Melbourne, spending two seasons at the Lake Oval before departing the state. After a successful interlude in the WAFL with North Fremantle, he returned to Victoria and joined Fitzroy in 1911, quickly establishing himself as a fixture in the Maroons' lineup. A pacy wingman who offered drive and defensive accountability, Buist reached the pinnacle of his career as a member of Fitzroy's 1913 premiership side. He continued to serve the club faithfully until the middle of World War I, hanging up his boots after making a handful of appearances during the unique 1916 season.
