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 Black and White World, which played at a number of festivals.[1][2]
White followed with Toucan 2008,[3] for which he received funding support from Film Australia.
