Stuart grew up in Sydney, attending St Paul's College, Manly, during which time he was chosen to represent the Australian Schoolboys team in both 1990 and 1991.[2]

A prop, he started his first-grade career at North Sydney in 1993, going on to make 111 appearances, including six finals. He played for NSW City in the 1997 City vs Country Origin match.[1]
