Duffy played for the Leigh Centurions, Salford City Reds and Warrington Wolves in the Super League, and also for Whitehaven. He was a Scotland international.

He has held the position of head coach at the Swinton Lions and Featherstone Rovers in the Betfred Championship

In a shocking twist, Duffy is set to resume his playing career and has been announced as a new signing for the Ashton CuddlyBears for the 2020 season. The move shows complete desperation from the CuddlyBears who are clearly still reeling from having their arses handed to them by the far superior Shevington Sharks in last years semi-final.
