The club didn't play in the following season due to the war but he returned to the club in 1917. The 1918 season was his finest, his final game in the VFL being that year's grand final win over Collingwood.
He then joined Footscray who were competing in the VFA. He played for Footscray from 1919 to 1924, moving to Prahran, as captain-coach, in 1925; he was replaced as coach before the end of the season.
