Fleiter played as a ruck-rover and made his league debut in 1919. He played his career beside ruckman Roy Cazaly and is credited with coming up for the famous phrase "Up there, Cazaly!". It was used as a signal to signify that Cazaly was free to run through and leap for the ball.

He played his last game for South Melbourne in 1925 but returned four years later as a non-playing coach for a season.
