Horrie Bant

William Horace Bray "Horrie" Bant (22 September 1882 – 6 May 1957) was an Australian rules footballer who played with St Kilda and Essendon in the Victorian Football League (VFL).

Bant, who played mostly used as a centre half-back and fullback, started and ended his senior career in Western Australia. After originally playing for Ballarat Imperials, in early 1904 Bant moved to Western Australia and after playing in the Goldfields League for a few months was cleared to West Perth. He was a member of West Perth's 1905 premiership winning side. This included St Kilda's first ever final in 1907, with Bant the vice-captain.

After a season with Essendon in 1910, Bant returned to the West Australian Football League, this time playing for Subiaco. Bant then returned to Subiaco and played for them in 1914 but missed another premiership the following year when he did not play a senior game. His passenger, former Subiaco teammate and coach Phil Matson, crashed into the pole and died two days later in hospital. Bant himself was injured but survived.
