Scott was a mature age recruit for Sydney, drafted after two standout seasons for Albury in the Ovens & Murray Football League, where he won back to back Morris Medals in 1993 and 1994. The second of those awards was shared, with John Kingston of Corowa-Rutherglen, but he became the first Albury player to win it twice.[1]
He came to the Swans as one of three zone selections from the 1994 AFL Draft, along with Leo Barry and Justin Crawford. A rover, he made his only senior appearance when he played in the Sydney's win over Fitzroy at the Sydney Cricket Ground, in round four of the 1995 AFL season.[2][3]
When he returned to Albury he continued to give the club good service. He was voted "Best on Ground" in their 1997 premiership win and took home his third club "Best and Fairest" in 2001.
