Shinners was recruited from Dandenong. He played 17 games for Richmond in the 1967 VFL season, including their semi final win over Carlton, but missed out on participating in the grand final, which they won.[3] He was called up to the seniors just six times in 1968.[3]

He continued at Dandenong after leaving Richmond and also spent some time with Rochester in the Bendigo Football League, winning a Michelsen Medal in 1970.
