Rugby league career[]

White, a forward, was a student at Patrician Brothers' College, Fairfield and earned Australian Schoolboys honours in 1987.

From 1989 to 1991, White played first-grade for Canterbury as a second rower and amassed 24 premiership appearances. He captained the Bulldogs at Under 21s level.[2]

White transferred to Western Suburbs in 1992 and made a switch to the front row, playing as a prop.[3] Some of his first-grade games for Western Suburbs were with younger brother Josh, a five-eighth and halfback. During this period, White had a stint in England with Workington Town.[4]

After finishing his Australian career with a season at Illawarra in 1996, White had another stint in England, where he captained Widnes for two seasons.[5]
