Mostly a defender, Hudd started his career at Queenscliff[2] before moving to Geelong and becoming a half back flanker in their 1925 premiership side.

He joined Essendon in 1926, spending two seasons there before taking a break from the VFL and playing at VFA club Yarraville.

In 1929 he returned to the league with Hawthorn, playing for two years there and then moving to Sandringham before retiring in 1931 after 83 VFL games.
