After initially joining the club as member of the youth team in late 2012,[3] Murnane made his professional debut with home town giants Melbourne Victory against Sydney in a 1–1 draw at Sydney Football Stadium in March 2013. He made his home debut and second appearance in a 2–3 loss against Perth Glory at AAMI Park. During the 2013/14 season he signed a contract extension with Victory that would take him through to the end of the 2015/16 season.[4]

Murnane was released by Melbourne Victory on 28 May 2016.[5]

On 13 September 2016 he signed a contract with the Norwegian club Kongsvinger IL Toppfotball.[6]

In December 2017, Murnane signed for Finnish Veikkausliiga side IFK Mariehamn on a 2-year-contract with option for a third season.[7]

International career

In August 2013, Murnane was called up to the Young Socceroos squad for the L'Alcúdia International Football Tournament alongside Victory team-mates Christopher Cristaldo and Luke Radonich.[8]

In 2014, he was named in the squad for the 2014 AFC U-19 Championship[9] although he did not make any appearances at the tournament as Australia was knocked out at the group stage.
