Coward was originally from West Perth and along with his teammate Wally Buttsworth had to spend the 1938 season on the sidelines while waiting for a clearance to Essendon.[1] He soon established himself as a wingman in Dick Reynolds's strong Essendon side of the early 1940s and appeared in three consecutive Grand Finals from 1941 to 1943, with a premiership in 1942. The Western Australian was runner-up in the 1944 Essendon Best and Fairest count. A VFL representative in 1945, Coward played a total of 11 finals matches with Essendon during his career. Tasmanian club Scottsdale secured his services as captain-coach in 1949, after he had played three seasons at Maryborough.[2] References1. ^{{cite news |url=http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article189146827 |title=New Personalities |newspaper=Sporting Globe |volume= , |issue=1753 |location=Victoria, Australia |date=15 April 1939 |accessdate=22 February 2017 |page=6 (Edition1 : Football Section) |via=National Library of Australia}} 2. ^{{cite news |url=http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article52655526 |title=MAGPIES' COACH ARRIVES |newspaper=The Examiner (Tasmania) |volume=CVII, |issue=217 |location=Tasmania, Australia |date=20 November 1948 |accessdate=22 February 2017 |page=14 |via=National Library of Australia}}
