Looks like he ended up living at Traralgon for a while, and played football for the town in 1954, at least:

SANFL related but John Cahill's tweeted the death of Brian Fairclough.

Brian was Jack Cahill's right hand man for over 20 years, and a pretty important cog in the 10 flags Jack coached at Port.
Hawthorn '61 Premiership player Malcolm Hill passed away sometime in the last week.
If anyone can find the actual date... much appreciated. Wiki has it as today, but I'm pretty sure that's not right.
I think his middle name was Walker.
