1973

Byrne will be remembered as one of the most unfortunate players in the history of VFL/AFL football, as he turned out for two clubs in four Grand Finals, only to be on the losing side in each one of them (Carlton 1973, Collingwood 1979, 1980, 1981).

At Carlton he went on to play 81 games from 1973 until his final game against Hawthorn in Round 6, 1978.

Ray made his Collingwood debut in Round 14, 1978.

1980

1980 turned out to be a stand out season for Byrne who represented Victoria at state level, he also went on to finish second in Collingwood's best and fairest claiming the RT Rush Trophy, as well as winning the clubs "Most Determined Player" award.

1983

In round 19 of the 1983 season, Collingwood met Richmond at the MCG in Richmond champion Kevin Bartlett's 400th AFL/VFL game.

His opponent that afternoon was Ray Byrne.

As the teams lined up for the first bounce, Byrne reached down into his sock, stood up, and presented the balding Tiger star with a toothless comb!

Bartlett was amused, but not distracted.

1984

Before 1984 season Byrne had initially retired from VFL Football and had moved to live in Geelong.

However, after receiving a phone call from his former Collingwood coach Tom Hafey, who was by now coaching Geelong, he had a change of heart.

Byrne asked and received a clearance to Geelong where he went on to play the final 17 games of his career.

1985

After retiring from VFL Football, Byrne coached Drysdale to the 1985 Bellarine D.F.L. premiership.
