BIOGRAPHY
Jack played mainly in the ruck and at full-back. He was a very tough, strong competitor and a fine team man. He joined Richmond in 1928, at the age of 27, after a successful career in the country and with Port Melbourne. After one season he crossed to Nhill; however, he returned to Richmond in 1931. He was a member of Richmond’s 1928 and 1931 Grand Final sides and was voted the club’s best player in the 1931 semi-final against Geelong. He was a reliable player who missed only one game in his two seasons with Richmond. He crossed to South Melbourne in 1932 and served as playing-coach between 1933 and 1936.
