Although Schunke came from Carlton Districts and had a brother Charlie that played for Carlton, it was with Richmond that he made his six appearances as a player. He played in the final six rounds of the 1909 VFL season.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Ernie Schunke – Games Played )〕 He was killed in a work accident at the James Moore and Son's timber yards in South Melbourne on 6 November 1922.
