AFL Career

Charman made his debut for the Brisbane Lions in Round 5, 2001 against Fremantle and played in the Lions' 2003 grand final win over Collingwood.

He became renowned for his crash and bash approach to ruckwork, similar to that of former teammate Clark Keating (former Brisbane Lions ruck coach).

Charman retired on 3 August 2011 due to an ongoing Achilles tendon injury.[4]

Charman was recruited to the Glenorchy Football Club in the 2014 TSL season.[5] However Charman only made two appearances for the season.[6]

Following his professional football career, Charman announced his transition into Real Estate[7] and currently operates as the Director of his own Buyer's Agency in Brisbane's inner suburbs.[8]

Coaching

In late 2011, Charman joined NRL side the North Queensland Cowboys as their part-time kicking and catching coach. Charman was approached by the Cowboys football manager Peter Parr and has received blessing from the Brisbane Lions to undertake the role for the 2012 season.[9]
