Playing career

edit

Senter made his first grade debut for Canterbury in 1992 against Eastern Suburbs. Senter primarily played second-row and lock at Canterbury in his 3 years at the club.

In 1995, Senter joined the newly named "Sydney Tigers" as Balmain changed their name and relocated out to Parramatta Stadium at the start of the super league war. In 1996, Senter switched positions from second-row to hooker.

In 1997, the "Sydney Tigers" name was dropped and reverted to Balmain, the club also returned to Leichhardt Oval for the first time in 2 seasons. Senter went on to become a mainstay at the club and played with the team until the end of 1999 when Balmain merged with other foundation club Western Suburbs to form the Wests Tigers. Senter played in Balmain's final ever match as a stand-alone club which was a 42–14 loss against Canberra.

In 2000, Senter became the inaugural captain of the Wests Tigers. Senter went on to make 96 appearances for the club before retiring at the end of 2004.[2]
