Domestic career

edit

After returning to State cricket, a drop in form saw him leave the New South Wales state squad, moving to the Canberra Comets. A lacklustre 1999–2000 season there coincided with the Comets being dropped from the Mercantile Mutual Cup, after which he returned to grade cricket in Sydney.

Coaching career

edit

He is the former coach of the Wellington Firebirds, a New Zealand provincial team.[1] He is also a former coach of the NSW cricket team in Australia. Stuart is currently the Coaching Development Manager for AFL NSW/ACT.

International career

edit

Stuart played in three One Day Internationals in the 1996–97 Carlton & United One Day triangular series between Australia, Pakistan, and the West Indies, taking eight wickets at an average of 13.62.[2] Despite taking 5–26, including a hat-trick, against Pakistan in the third of these matches in January 1997, Stuart was never selected for Australia again.[3]
