Way played six games in his debut season, for 12 goals, five of them in a match against Geelong. He was recruited from the Coburg Rangers and was a member of Carlton's 1945 premiership team.

Way, the nephew of former Carlton player Jack Way, later moved to Tasmania where he played for City and later Longford in the Northern Tasmanian Football Association.[1][2] He then returned to Melbourne in 1963, where he lived in the south-east suburbs until his death in November 2014.[3]
