He played in two premiership sides, the first in 1931, and the second in 1937 when he kicked six goals in the Grand Final against Collingwood. Evans was a regular Victorian interstate representative, playing a total of nine games for his state. A policeman from 1932-1960, Evans was inducted into the Victoria Police Sporting Hall Of Fame on 13 September 2011.
