Goullet played in the seconds at Richmond but after not being able to break into the seniors crossed over to Hawthorn.[1] The club, in just its fourth VFL season, struggled on the field and Goullet was in the losing team in each of his 14 games.[2]
Goullet had much more success at Northcote, where he played in Northcote's 1932[3] and 1933[4] VFA premierships, including another one as captain-coach in 1934.[5][6] Brighton secured his services as playing coach in 1936.[7]
