Professional career
Originally from Erina, New South Wales, Perry Haddock was a halfback for three clubs during his eight-year career. He played three seasons with the Cronulla-Sutherland Sharks between 1981 and 1983, then switched to the St. George Dragons for three seasons between 1984 and 1986. He starred for Dragons during this period, and he played in the 1985 Grand Final.
