Quirk made his debut for the Carlton Football Club in Round 3, 1965. He kicked 3 goals on debut as a forward pocket. Quirk retired in 1975, at the age of 29, after eleven years with the club.

After his retirement from playing, he spent many years as a coach. He coached Maryborough in 1976 and 1977.[2]

He returned to Carlton in 1978 and coached its Under-19s to back-to-back premierships in 1978 and 1979 (assisted by Brian Buckley[3]), and later coached the Carlton reserves for three seasons.
