An attacking midfielder, the much-travelled Mendez is a former player of Admira Wacker and Notts County in Europe and for Malaysian side Kedah FA. He is also a former Australia national football team player from 1994 to 2000.

An unexpected playing return with St Columba's Castle Hill in 2013 ended prematurely, with a hamstring injury curtailing an initially bright performance.
