Australian rules footballer
Australian rules footballer
Wayne Francis Carey
(born 27 May 1971) is a former
Australian rules footballer
who played with the
North Melbourne Football Club
and
Adelaide Football Club
in the
Australian Football League
(AFL).
A dual-premiership captain at North Melbourne (
1996
and
1999)
, four-time North Melbourne best-and-fairest (
Syd Barker Medallist
) and seven-time
All-Australian
, Carey is nicknamed "
The King
", or "
Duck
". In 2001, he was named as
centre half-forward
and captain of
North Melbourne's Team of the Century
, and in 2008 was named as Australian football's greatest ever player, as part of a list of the top 50 players of all time, published in the book
The Australian Game of Football
, which was released by the
League
to celebrate 150 years of Australian rules football.
[2]
In 2002, he left North Melbourne in disgrace after it was revealed he had been having an extramarital affair with the wife of his then-teammate
Anthony Stevens
. He is also known for a string of legal problems, which include domestic violence charges and assault convictions.
From 2014, Carey has worked as a Friday night football commentator and
Talking Footy
panelist with
Channel Seven
. He has also written as a columnist for
The Age
[3]
and is a regular fixture on Triple M's
The Rush Hour
segment called "The Midweek Rub", which has since been spun off as its own podcast.
[4]
[5]
He had previously worked for
3AW
and
Channel 9
before being fired for a
glassing
incident in Miami.
[6]
Carey worked at Channel 7, Triple M and The Age until 2022 when he was sacked from all three roles due to an alleged incident at the Perth Casino.
Carey then started his own podcast in 2023 called “The Truth Hurts” - the original co-host was Ayrton Woolley in 2023 and then Tony Sheahan from 2024.
Early life and education
[
edit
]
Wayne Francis Carey
[7]
[
better source needed
]
was born on born 27 May 1971,
[8]
the son of Kevin and Lynne Carey.
[9]
Carey was one of five children, and spent his early years in
Wagga Wagga
, New South Wales.
[10]
His mother and father separated when Carey was aged six, with his mother taking four
[11]
of the children to
Adelaide
, living in a
homeless shelter
.
[9]
According to Carey's autobiography, his father was a violent man who had spent time at
Mannus Correctional Centre
and was troubled by alcoholism.
[9]
[11]
[12]
A few months later, Kevin Carey retrieved the children from his estranged wife, and they returned to Wagga Wagga.
[11]
Carey played
rugby league
as a junior,
[11]
and began playing Australian rules football at the age of eight. At the age of thirteen, Carey returned to Adelaide,
[12]
where he attended
The Heights School
[13]
and played junior football for
North Adelaide
.
[10]
Playing career: 1987?2004
[
edit
]
VFL debut: 1987?1989
[
edit
]
In 1987, Carey was recruited by
North Melbourne
after their CEO,
Greg Miller
, met with the
Sydney Swans
' football department to discuss the transfer to North Melbourne of
John Longmire
, a highly regarded junior key-position player. Once that deal was concluded, Miller then inquired about Carey who, like Longmire, was zoned to the Swans due to having lived in New South Wales. He made a token offer of $10,000 as a transfer fee, to which the Swans surprisingly agreed.
[14]
[15]
As a 16-year-old, Carey made the move to
Melbourne
and played for the North Melbourne under-19s, where he starred in their 1988 premiership side under coach
Denis Pagan
.
[16]
Carey was promoted to the senior list prior to the 1989 season and, after recovering from dislocating his left shoulder in a practice match early in the year, made his first appearance for the seniors as an 18-year-old in round 11 of
1989
against
Fitzroy
.
State of Origin
[
edit
]
Carey had a relatively short but successful
State of Origin
career, and what he describes as a significant period in his career.
Carey first played at the game's highest level in 1990 for
New South Wales
, in a famous win over
Victoria
, in the side's only 3rd-ever win against the state; Carey scored one goal. In 1992, playing for
South Australia
against Victoria, Carey played an outstanding game, dominating at centre half-forward and kicking two goals,
[18]
including the match-winner from 55 metres out in the dying moments. Carey had four opponents in the game, dominating them all, including
Chris Langford
,
Danny Frawley
and
Garry Lyon
.
[18]
Carey has described this game as the moment he knew he belonged in the AFL.
Saying if he could do well at State of Origin level, a higher level than the AFL, he knew he belonged at AFL level.
Carey played for NSW/ACT the following year in the
State of Origin Carnival
scoring one goal. In the latter half of the 1990s, clubs began putting pressure on players to pull out of games due to fear of injury, and players began to stop participating, with the final State of Origin game occurring in 1999.
1989?2001
The 1990s was a decade dominated by forwards, and Wayne Carey dominated his role at centre half-forward more than perhaps any other player in his position before or since.
"Carey had established a reputation as one of perhaps the dozen greatest players of all time," according to writer John Devaney of australianfootball.com.
[19]
"It was clear right from the outset that the Kangaroos had managed to get their hands on someone special. Powerfully built even then, Carey could mark strongly even under the most extreme pressure, and his kicking either to position or at goal was impeccable. He was also surprisingly quick, both over the ground, and in terms of his decision making and use of the ball. Carey won the first of his four North Melbourne best and fairest awards in 1992, and the following year was appointed captain.
"North's emergence as one of the power clubs of the AFL during the mid- to late 1990s was attributable in no small measure to Carey's presence and contribution. It is arguable that no footballer in history has ever been capable of winning a game entirely off his own boot, but Carey at his peak perhaps came as close as anyone. On a purely objective measure, he was probably worth at least three players?which, coincidentally, is sometimes the number of opponents he had to contend with. Named an AFL All-Australian in 1993, 1994, 1995, 1996, 1998, 1999 and 2000, Carey was selected as captain of the side on four occasions. In both 1996 and 1999 he was a pivotal member of his club's two most recent premiership sides."
?John Devaney
Extramarital affair and leaving North Melbourne for Adelaide: 2002?2004
[
edit
]
In March 2002, Carey had an extramarital affair with the wife of North Melbourne stalwart and Vice Captain
Anthony Stevens
, Kelli. Making the situation even messier was the fact that Carey was himself married to his long-term partner Sally McMahon. Carey and Stevens were attending a party at teammate
Glenn Archer
's house. Carey is quoted as saying Kelli followed him into the toilets in front of a large crowd, including her husband.
[20]
An argument ensued between Carey and Stevens,
[21]
and both players subsequently failed to attend football training. In the face of his team being united against him, as well as nationwide condemnation, Carey resigned in disgrace from North Melbourne.
[22]
Carey's then manager
Ricky Nixon
infamously stated that his client was on "
suicide watch
" during the aftermath.
[23]
To avoid media attention, Carey fled to
Las Vegas
, USA.
[22]
Stevens had played groomsman to Carey at his wedding to Sally.
North Melbourne Legend
Brent Harvey
said it set the club back "four or five years".
[24]
The aftermath of the affair resulted in Carey missing the
2002 AFL season
and transferring to the
Adelaide Crows
for the
2003 AFL season
; he would play two seasons with the Crows, including kicking 56 goals, retiring at the end of the
2004 AFL season
. The first game played between North Melbourne and Adelaide in 2003 made for gripping viewing, with Archer and Stevens both taunting and making aggressive moves towards Carey. Although tension was at fever pitch, all players involved managed to restrain themselves from doing anything overly rash. Adelaide went on to win convincingly by 54 points.
[25]
[26]
In a twist of fate, Stevens took over Carey's role of captain in 2004.
In February 2022, 20 years after the initial fallout from the affair, Carey labelled his affair with Stevens "the biggest regret of my life as an adult" while participating on season three of the reality TV show
SAS Australia
.
[27]
Despite withdrawing from the show, Carey was reportedly paid A$250,000 for the appearance.
[28]
In August 2022, Carey and Stevens met again at a function to celebrate the 26th anniversary of their
1996 premiership
(which was initially supposed to be a 25th anniversary but was delayed by a year due to
COVID-19
); Carey engaged Stevens in a "verbal stoush" at the function, although the situation was reportedly de-escalated. The
Herald Sun
reported there was no potential of violence and that the pair "moved on and shared a beer together" afterwards.
[27]
Despite both players' marriages being rocked by the public scandal, it took each marriage several years to dissolve. Carey's marriage ended in 2006, four years after the incident,
[29]
while Kelli and Anthony Stevens divorced in 2008, six years after the affair.
[30]
Carey was inducted into the
AFL Hall of Fame
in 2010. Although he was eligible for induction in 2008, his off-field troubles with drugs and violence delayed his induction.
[31]
“Alleged creative accounting"
[
edit
]
Due to restrictions in the salary cap, North Melbourne was capped at $300,000 per year for Carey for the
2000 AFL season
. However, the North Melbourne staff knew that Carey was far more valuable to the team than this, so Carey's manager
Ricky Nixon
came up with a creative salary cap move to secure Carey an additional $400,000 in salary.
[32]
Nixon said, "So I requested Wayne’s intellectual property, and it was owned by Wayne Carey Pty Ltd, and he licensed it to me for $2 so I could sell it to North Melbourne for marketing rights of $700,000," Nixon said on the
Real Footy
podcast.
[33]
"He was getting paid $300,000 from North Melbourne and $700,000 went to me, and I gave Wayne $400,000. People said it was cheating, but it was absolutely within the rules."
According to Nixon, when the AFL complained about this manoeuvre, he simply told them: "I run the competition, not you."
[34]
Legacy
[
edit
]
Carey has been named by many media commentators as the greatest footballer to play the game.
[2]
[35]
[36]
In 1999,
[

Leigh Matthews
, who was voted the greatest player of the 20th century, honoured Carey by saying that he was the best player he had ever seen.
[37]
In 2008, Carey was named as Australian Football's greatest-ever player as part of a list of the top 50 players of all time, published in the book
The Australian Game of Football
,
[2]
and he placed third in a similar list put together by a panel of football legends in
The Age
newspaper the same year.
[35]
In 2011, the
Herald Sun
polled 21 past and present AFL greats, including Carey, to find the players' opinion as to the greatest player of the AFL era. Carey topped the list, polling 85 of a possible 100 votes, 26 votes ahead of second-placed
Gary Ablett Sr.
[36]
"Sure Got Me" on
Paul Kelly
's 2004 double album
Ways & Means
recounts the love triangle involving Carey, Anthony Stevens, and Stevens's wife at the time, Kelli.
[38]
Hunters & Collectors
frontman
Mark Seymour
also wrote a song inspired by the affair, but he declined to release it after learning of Kelli's take on the events.
[38]
Jock Cheese
, bassist of the satirical Melbourne band
TISM
, released a tribute to Carey titled "Why Don't You Get A Bigger Set of Tits?" on his 2002 solo album
Platter
.
[39]
Statistics
[
edit
]
As of 2023, Carey's career total of 727 goals ranks him
equal 20th in VFL/AFL history
,
[40]
and his 671 goals for North Melbourne is the club record.
[41]
[42]
Post-playing career
[
edit
]
In early 2005, Carey agreed to assist former coach and mentor Denis Pagan at the
Carlton Football Club
, acting voluntarily as a part-time skills coach. In 2006 he was an assistant coach at
Collingwood Football Club
. Carey also worked as a commentator and host of shows on the
Fox Footy Channel
throughout the 2006 season. In 2007 he participated in the Nine Network football analysis program
Footy Classified
, as well as special comments for radio station
3AW
's football coverage. Subsequent to his dual arrests for domestic violence and assault he was sacked from both positions.
[43]
In 2009, Carey was approached in a confidential meeting with influential North Melbourne board member
Ron Joseph
to return to the club as coach in a succession plan which also involved
Malcolm Blight
. Carey confirmed this when queried by noted football journalist
Damian Barrett
in May 2021.
[44]
Controversies
[
edit
]
Carey has had a string of scandals besides the aforementioned extramarital affair with Anthony Stevens' wife.
In 1997, Carey pleaded guilty to indecent assault after grabbing a passing woman's breast on a Melbourne city street after 12 hours of drinking with teammates.
[45]
He allegedly told her, "Why don't you get a bigger pair of tits".
[46]
Carey later settled out of court when the woman filed a civil suit against him.
[47]
In 2000, Carey provided character evidence for
Jason Moran
, an infamous gangster who was subsequently murdered in
Melbourne's gang war
.
[48]
In 2004, while holidaying with his then wife, Carey was subject to arrest for a
misdemeanour
battery
report while holidaying in Las Vegas.
[22]
He was placed in custody for one night then released. The local
District Attorney
elected not to pursue the case.
[22]
Carey again became the subject of public comment in February 2006 when he announced he was leaving his pregnant wife Sally for model Kate Neilson.
[49]
His daughter Ella was born six weeks later. In December 2006, Neilson allegedly reported Carey to Australian police for domestic violence, alleging he had punched her in the face.
[50]
Neilson and Carey denied this report. Subsequently, US security guard Kyle Banks told the
Nine Network
's
A Current Affair
he saw Carey attacking Neilson while working at the exclusive
W Hotel
in New York City in October 2006. Banks said he saw Carey break a bottle of French champagne over his own head.
[51]
On 27 January 2008, Carey was arrested after reports of a disturbance at his Port Melbourne apartment. Police had to subdue Carey with capsicum spray and he was seen handcuffed after allegedly assaulting the officers.
[52]
Two days later, the Nine Network announced it would not renew Carey's television contract after it was revealed that Carey had been arrested and charged with assaulting a police officer and Neilson in Miami, Florida, on 27 October 2007, after he allegedly
glassed
Neilsen in the face and neck with a wine glass.
[53]
[54]
[55]
Police Lieutenant Bill Schwartz, however, reported:
[6]
When officers went and spoke to him, he immediately was belligerent, starting striking out at the officers, in fact, kicked one of the female officers in the face with his foot, elbowed another one in the side of the face. They had to wrestle him down and handcuff him. When he was in the police car, he used his head as a battering ram and tried to smash a hole between the front compartment of the police car and the prisoner compartment.
To stop Carey harming himself and damaging the car, the officers put him into a leather hobble restraint around his hands and legs.
[6]
Carey faced up to fifteen years in jail and
US$
30,000 fines. Additionally, Carey was fired from commentary jobs at 3AW and the Nine Network following the coverage of the two arrests.
[43]
Ultimately Carey pleaded guilty to assaulting and resisting Miami police. In exchange for his guilty pleas, prosecutors agreed that Carey should only serve 50 hours of community service, attend alcohol- and anger-management classes, serve two years probation, and pay US$500 to a Miami police charity.
[56]
As a consequence of his criminal record in the United States, Carey was refused an entry visa in October 2009.
[57]
In March 2008, Carey publicly revealed he was, for a long period, an abuser of alcohol and
cocaine
.
[58]
He was interviewed by
Andrew Denton
on
Enough Rope
, where he talked candidly about his life and recent controversies.
[9]
[49]
1.5 million viewers tuned into the highly publicised interview.
[59]
Carey was attempting to visit
Barwon Prison
in February 2012 to speak to indigenous inmates as part of a mentoring program; however, he was found to have traces of cocaine on his clothing following a routine drug scan. Carey was informed that he could enter the prison if he submitted to a strip search. He declined and left the correctional facility.
[60]
On 1 September 2022, according to numerous sources, including
The Herald Sun
and
The Age
, Carey was gambling when a
Ziploc bag
of white powder fell onto a gaming table. Carey denied the substance was illegal, claiming it was a "crushed-up anti-inflammatory".
[61]
[62]
Carey was issued with a "withdrawal of license" notice, which means he cannot attend Crown properties for two years. It saw him ejected from the Crown hotel, where he was staying for the
Fremantle
?
Bulldogs
elimination final. This also means that he was unable to attend the
2022 Brownlow Medal
count that was held at
Crown Palladium
in Melbourne.
