Guinane, a defender, came to Richmond from South Ballarat.[2] He polled eight Brownlow Medal votes in 1939, the second most by a Richmond player behind Jack Dyer.
He was a back pocket in the 1942 VFL Grand Final, which Richmond lost.[3] Richmond were premiers in both his first and last seasons, but he wasn't selected for either side.[4]
Off the field he worked as a tram driver.[5]
