He and Nick Maxwell were both All-Australian Team selections during their AFL careers.

White played for the Dandenong Stingrays in the TAC Cup in 1993 and 1994. He was drafted with the number 1 pick in the 1994 AFL Draft—the first Dandenong player to be drafted with the highest pick. Travis Johnstone—who was White’s team-mate at Melbourne for 10 years—is the only other Dandenong player to be selected with the first pick in an AFL draft. White was one of six Dandenong players selected to play for Vic Metro at the Teal Cup—the national under 18 championships—in 1994.

Salary-cap breaches involved in White’s trade caused Melbourne to forfeit their highest selection (pick number 5) in the 1999 draft to Fremantle.

In 2005, he was involved in a horrific on-field incident with Geelong’s Steven King. As King attempted to kick the ball out of mid-air, he missed and collected White’s face at the height of his leg’s swing, causing facial injuries that required extensive surgery, inserting five metal plates and 14 screws into White’s jaw and face. It was viewed as an accident by the AFL tribunal and no action was taken against King. As the incident took place in Melbourne’s final match of the season—Geelong winning the match and knocking Melbourne out of the finals—White was able to recover during the off-season and did not miss a match, despite the severity of the injury. White’s wedding to his fiancée Stacy was postponed until later in the year due to the injury.
