[5] In 1927 he was playing with the Leeton Australian Rules Football Club in the South West Football League (New South Wales), and was part of the team that won that competition's 1927 Grand Final.
[8][9] In its coverage of Melbourne's 1928 second pre-season practice match, The Age observed that, among the new players, "Haw, a big, strongly-built ruckman, who kicks well and plays hard, is considered to be one of the finds of the season".
[13] Having not been considered for either Northcote's First XVIII or its Second XVIII in home-and-away rounds five (24 May 1930) to nine (21 June 1930), Haw was granted a clearance from Northcote to play with Richmond on 23 June 1930.
On 29 April 1931 "M.J. Haw" was granted a clearance from "Richmond Seconds to Northcote",[15] and appears on the club's final training list for 1931 as an "old player",[16] although, iy seems, he did not play at all for either Northcote's First or Second XVIII in 1931.
