Football edit
Hull started his career as a wingman, but played a lot of his football for Richmond at centre half-back, which was from where he played in the 1940 VFL Grand Final loss.[3][4]
He did not play any senior VFL football in 1943 and 1944, due to war service.[4][5]
In 1947 Ian played 10 games, deep in defence, for the Port Adelaide Football Club in the SANFL.
