Playing career
Wilmot played his junior football at Diamond Valley Football League club Montmorency and broke into their seniors in 1974.[3] He was a member of Montmorency's 1976 premiership team.[3]
From 1977 to 1979, Wilmot played for Preston in the Victorian Football Association (VFA).[3] He played in the 1978 VFA Grand Final, which Preston lost to Prahran.[3] Wilmot, who had previously fought a professional boxing bout as a middleweight in 1976, received a six-week suspension for his actions during the game.[3][4]
He made five senior appearances for Collingwood in the 1980 VFL season.[5] His best performance, which earned him three Brownlow Medal votes, came in a win over St Kilda at Victoria Park, where he had 20 disposals and kicked four goals.[6]
Injuries brought an early end to his VFL career and he spent the rest of his playing career at Montmorency, Heidelberg West and Eltham.[3] While at Heidelberg West in 1982, Wilmot finished second, to Wayne Headlam, in the Frank Smith Medal.[3]
Coaching
Wilmot started his coaching career in his one-season stint at Eltham, where he was both a player and assistant coach.[3] Eltham defeated Epping in the Division 2 Grand Final that year.[3] In 1990 and 1991 he was senior coach of Croydon, then head coach at Heidelberg for next two years.[3] He coached Eltham to a premiership in 1995 and returned to Montmorency as an assistant coach the following year.[3] In 1997 he was senior coach of Montmorency.[3]
