White had to wait until the second last round of the 2014 AFL season to make his AFL debut, against Richmond,[3] where he kicked three goals.[4] He was delisted at the conclusion of the 2015 season.[5]

White has signed with WAFL side Perth for the 2016 season.

He was once known as "Buddy" and Saints fans got very excited about his prospects, but he didn't have the tank to make it at AFL level.
