Bio
Recruited from Golden Point in the Ballarat Football League, Con Britt established himself as a reliable rover and half-forward for Collingwood during the Bob Rose era. Making his debut in 1966, he became known for his goal sense and ability to rotate through the midfield, serving as a valuable link player in the Magpies' forward half. While he was never the headline act in a star-studded lineup, his consistency allowed him to carve out a respectable niche at Victoria Park.
Britt's career coincided with a period of high achievement but ultimate heartbreak for the club, most notably seeing him feature in the infamous 1970 Grand Final loss to Carlton. A handy contributor who could hit the scoreboard when resting forward, he proved durable enough to raise his bat for a century of games in the black and white. He remained a regular selection until his final season in 1973, concluding his VFL career as a solid servant of the club who played his role during one of Collingwood's most competitive eras.
