The fifth son of Thomas Bruce Hendrie and Alice Charlotte Ingram, Hendrie grew up in the Hawthorn area. A tall man for his era, he was a centre half-forward and originally played for Camberwell Football Club before transferring to Hawthorn when they joined the VFL. He played in 1925 and 1927 and was a prominent member of the team in Hawthorn's first ever VFL match.[2] He was also the grandfather of John Hendrie.[3]

Gil Hendrie married Isabella Victoria Deering in 1926[4] and after football he became a partner in Deering's Bakery in Camberwell before retiring to Mornington.[5] Gil Hendrie died in 1968 at the age of 66.[6]
