Mann, recruited from Leopold but born in England, played his first VFL game in 1901. In his first season, he was a member of Essendon's premiership team and played in their Grand Final loss a year later, in 1902.[2]
A defender, he spent the rest of the decade in the West Australian Football League, first at East Fremantle for a season in 1904 and then at South Fremantle for a longer stint which saw him play 77 games.[3]
Ken Mann, his grandson, as well as Peter Mann, his great-grandson, played in the VFL/AFL.
