His brother, Albert, played at Carlton in 1914, and a brother-in-law, Tom Cain, was a successful coach in the WAFL.
A defender from South Bendigo, Scaddan spent just one year with Collingwood.
He was one of six Collingwood footballers to play in every game of the 1910 VFL season and was a half back flanker in their winning Grand Final team.
The next stage of his career was spent in Western Australia, where he captain-coached Subiaco to a premiership in 1912.
