Duthy, who played his early football in Broken Hill, was a defender.[2] He was an established player at Glenelg by the time he was recruited to the VFL, having been the full-back in their 1985 and 1986 premiership teams.[2]

Selected by Fitzroy with the 37th pick of the 1986 Draft, Duthy appeared in the first three rounds of the 1987 VFL season but was unable to play any more games for the club due to injury.[3]

He finished his career back in the SANFL and brought up his 200th league appearance for Glenelg in the 1992 finals series. He then played in his fifth grand final for Glenelg but was on the losing for the third time and retired from football.[2]
