Early life

Originally from Tasmania, Evans played for Penguin Football Club in the North West Football Union[2]

Evans also kicked 41 goals in 10 games for South Australia in interstate football, and a further 25 goals in 16 games in pre-season and night series competition.

He played in Port Adelaide's 1977 and 1979-81 premiership teams as well as playing full back in the losing 1976 Grand Final to Sturt in front of the SANFL record crowd of 66,897 at Football Park, and also in the losing 1984 Grand Final.

Evans topped the SANFL's goalkicking six times, and was Port's leading goalkicker ten times.
