Considine played his early football for St Joseph's and Strathmore.[1] An All-Australian at Teal Cup level,[2] he made his league debut in 1986 but could only put together semi regular games and spent much of his time in the reserves.
Often used as a half back flanker, Considine moved to Sydney in 1993 via a trade and in 1994 played 15 games, his best return. He retired after playing six AFL games in 1995.[3]
