Recruited from the South Bendigo Football Club,[1] Mulcair made his debut for Carlton in Round 13 of the 1970 VFL season against Geelong. Named on the half-back flank, he was one of their best players, but shortly after the game notified club officials of his intent to return to country football.[2] Mulcair was eventually persuaded to stay and ended up winning the "Best First Year Player Award". He played at half back in Carlton's premiership side that year.
