Murray joined Caversham in 1999, and then move to Auckland for five years, playing for University-Mt Wellington and East Coast Bays.
Returning to Otago, he played for Caversham until taking up coaching at the club, and coaching junior representative teams..
Rovers finished fourth in the 2023 Southern League, 13 points short of qualifying for the Men’s National League.
