CFC Debut Number

Belcher played just four games for the Pies before being let go, and went on to become one of the great club captains of his era, leading Essendon to a flag in 1912. A powerful ruckman from Brunswick, he led by example.

He was acting captain again during the 1919 season after skipper Fred Baring took ill, but broke his toe in a match against St Kilda and never played again.

He died in 1921.
