Stanislaus made just one appearance for Sydney, in round three of the 1991 AFL season, against Adelaide.[2] In 1992 and 1993 he played for North Launceston in the Tasmanian Statewide League. Whilst there he was given another chance to play AFL football when he was selected by the Brisbane Bears in the 1992 Mid-Season Draft, but he never played a senior game for the club.[3]
