Australian rules football career

White played for Carlton in the Australian Football League from 1997 to 2001.

White is best remembered for his accidental collision with an umpire during a match, a collision that resulted in White knocking himself out.[1]

Film career

After retiring from professional football due to injury (unrelated to the umpire incident) White launched a new career as an independent filmmaker.

His first independently produced short film was a 'A Black and White World', which played at a number of festivals.[1][2]

White followed with 'Toucan', for which he received funding support from Film Australia.
