Pidding joined St. George in 1947, immediately cementing a spot in the top-grade as the club's full-back. He made his representative debut for New South Wales that year and in 1948 was selected for Australia, making his test debut against New Zealand in the first test at the Sydney Cricket Ground. He had a poor game in Australia's 19–21 loss and was unlucky enough to be starting his career at the same time as the "Immortal" Clive Churchill.

He was the first St George player to top 200 points in a club season (1951) and that same year represented nationally against France.
He toured New Zealand again in 1952 before being selected for the 1952-53 Kangaroo tour which marked his career highlight. He played in all five Tests of the tour plus in seventeen minor matches. He scored 228 points on tour, a record second only to Dave Brown's 285 of 1933-34 which was scored in ten more matches than Pidding's feat.
He made further Test appearances in 1953 (New Zealand) and in 1954 (Great Britain) where he set a then individual record for an Australian player in an Ashes Test with 19 points (1 try and 8 goals). His representative farewell was in the inaugural 1954 Rugby League World Cup in France where he played in all three of Australia's pool clashes. Pidding is listed on the Australian Players Register as Kangaroo No. 244.
