Career

Newcastle Jets

On 18 December 2010, Pepper made his senior debut in a 4–0 loss to Wellington Phoenix.[3] On 14 February 2012 it was announced he had signed a two-year contract extension with Newcastle Jets.[4] Pepper has since cemented his spot in the starting XI with a string of impressive performances towards the backend of the 2011–12 season. This included a brace of goals in a 3–1 win away against a star-studded Melbourne Victory side, and a deserved call-up to the youth international scene.

Western Sydney Wanderers

On 9 June 2015, he was signed by the Western Sydney Wanderers on a 1-year contract.[5]

On 29 June 2016, Pepper was released by the Wanderers.[6]

Brisbane Roar

In July 2016, Pepper joined Brisbane Roar.[7] Pepper made his Brisbane Roar debut in Roar's Round 1 clash against Melbourne Victory, coming on for Thomas Broich in the 74th minute. The game ended 1–1, after a 96th minute Brisbane equaliser. He spent most of the 2017–18 season as a makeshift central defender due to several injuries at the club, Pepper has started a total of 10 games at centre back so far this season, earning many plaudits for his performances. He left Brisbane Roar in March 2020.[8]

Madura United

After leaving Brisbane Roar, Pepper joined Indonesian club Madura United.[9]

International career

On 7 March 2011 he was selected to represent the Australia Olympic football team in an Asian Olympic Qualifier match against Iraq.[10]
