Everett came to Fitzroy from Warrandyte and made his league debut in the final round of the 1980 VFL season, against Carlton at Princes Park.[1][2] He played the opening six rounds of the 1981 season, then didn't feature again for the rest of the year.[3] In 1981 he made eight appearances, which included a win over Hawthorn, in which Everett tagged Leigh Matthews and was successful in blunting him.[3][4]

In 1986, Everett coached Melton to a premiership in the Riddell District Football League.[5]

Since then he has moved to Thailand and was coach of the Thailand Tigers Australian rules football team.[6][7]
