Playing career
Pezet started his first-grade career at the now-defunct South Queensland club.
Pezet was a member of the South Queensland teams which finished last on the table in 1996 and 1997. He was also a member of the final-ever game the Crushers played, a 39–18 victory over the Western Suburbs Magpies, before they were denied a place in the new National Rugby League competition in 1998 following the Super League war.
In 1998, Pezet moved to Parramatta where he spent one season before retiring at the end of the year at the age of only 24.
Post playing
Pezet is now currently working for the Newcastle Knights as their elite pathways recruitment manager.[2][3]
