Playing career

Junior football

Originally from Parade College, Harford was a Teal Cup captain of Victoria as a youngster. He played junior football for St Mary's in the Diamond Valley Football League, and was recruited from the Northern U18 team by the Hawthorn Football Club with the 8th overall selection in the 1994 AFL Draft.

AFL football

While at Hawthorn, where he made his debut in 1995, Harford was a hard-at-the-ball midfielder or occasionally, small forward. He also made regular appearances on The Footy Show during this period.

In 2002, Harford managed just 11 games, suffering a run of injuries, and continued to struggle for form and fitness in 2003 where he played only another 5 games. Although Harford was on a long-term contract, Hawthorn decided to try to offload him, and at the end of the year Carlton contracted traded pick no. 51 for him, with Hawthorn paying half his contract. During a pre-season run in October 2004 Harford, decided to retire from AFL football.

Local football

Harford played VAFA football for Old Paradians in 2005, and returned to the VFL to play for the Northern Bullants, with whom he had previously played while on the Carlton list. He was consistently one of the best in the Bullants' minor premiership team, winning the Laurie Hill Trophy as the Bullants' best and fairest, and finishing third in the J. J. Liston Trophy count.

In 2007, Harford moved to the Balwyn Football Club in the Eastern Football League. He played there in 2007, served as playing-coach in 2008 (winning the premiership that season), and retired from playing at the end of 2008.

Coaching career

He began by hosting a Sunday afternoon sports show with Robert Shaw, and in 2006 he hosted On the Rise, a morning weekend program, with Jason Richardson. He made regular appearances on The Good Oil, a weekday afternoon show, between 2007 and 2009, before taking over the time slot in 2010 with his own program Harf Time.

In November 2016, Harford resigned from 1116 SEN and moved to RSN 927 to host the breakfast show.
