Spencer first played for SUANFC in 2015 within the NEAFL program, before officially joining the club in 2016. He came into the NEAFL program as a lanky centre half back, before getting his big break at the back end of 2016 when he was thrust into playing as an undersized ruck/ 4^th mid, earning himself SUANFC’s NEAFL Rising Star Award for 2016. He first started playing AFL, however, as early as 3 years old when he would attend his older brother, Monty’s, Auskick games.  

Reflecting on his time at the club Spencer said he was proud of the players, volunteers and supporters that create such a strong sense of community. Spencer is known amongst his team mates as someone who loves to have a joke and get a laugh at training, but when it matters during a big game he will always step up- and this certainly comes through in the awards and accolades Spencer has earnt himself over the years. In 2019, Spencer was names SUANFC Finals Player of the Year, as well as being named in the AFL Sydney team of the year. In 2020, after having already played played in three Grand Finals in the three previous years, he was an integral member of the Premiership Winning Men’s Premier Division Team- helping to break a 28 year drought for the club!

“It’s been a good pre-season, there has been a great commitment from all players. We are looking strong and ready for the year ahead and we are confident that we have a great chance to win another senior premiership for the club”
