Closter played as both a wingman and centreman during his 191-game career, missing out on joining the 200 club due to National Service training commitments and a tour of duty fighting in Vietnam.
However, in 2007 he was inducted into the club, along with his teammate Joe Sellwood and Essendon's Jack Jones who both also served.[1]
