Originally from Geelong, Sizer joined Victorian Football Association club Geelong West in the 1980s. In 1986, he was recruited to the Victorian Football League by Melbourne, where he played primarily in the reserves and played a single senior game at the end of the year. He was offered the Melbourne reserves captaincy in 1987, but turned it down in search for more senior opportunities, and was cleared to Richmond, but he did not play a senior game there.[2]
Sizer was also a golfer, and after leaving the Richmond Football Club he spent a year caddying at the Augusta Golf Club in 1988-89. He later played senior football for Werribee in the VFA in 1989 and 1990.[2]
Sizer died in 2021, aged 55.
