Doyle was initially drafted by Carlton, with their second pick and 21st overall in the 1989 National Draft.[2] He served a long apprenticeship in the reserves but was delisted without making his senior debut.[3] Instead he played senior football at Fitzroy, which selected him in the 1994 Pre-Season Draft. Doyle appeared in the final five rounds of the 1995 AFL season and his six appearances in 1996 included Fitzroy's final AFL match, against Fremantle.[4] All of his 12 league appearances came in losses.[4]
