Fitzroy
Recruited from the Alhington Football Club, Chanter had signed with Fitzroy in 1946 to avoid being bound to Collingwood (as he would have been under the soon-to-be-adopted new zoning laws). Chanter made his debut for Fitzroy, aged 25, on 25 May 1946, against South Melbourne at the Brunswick Street Oval; South Melbourne won the match, 10.12 (72) to 7.21 (63). He played 5 senior games in 1946, and 13 in 1947. When Fred Hughson left Fitzroy at the end of the 1947 season, Chanter took over as fullback. In 1951 he became the first Fitzroy fullback to win the club's Best and Fairest award.
