Stewart kicked six goals from 13 appearances in the 1897 VFL season, which was enough to share the year's goal-kicking honours with teammate Bill Ahern. He played just twice the following year and finished his VFL career with no wins.[2]

He had a brother, Ernest, who played some games with him at St Kilda in 1897.[3]
