Teams

Recruited from Hampton, Jack Connell arrived at the Junction Oval and made his senior debut in the opening round of the 1932 season against Fitzroy. His tenure with St Kilda was defined by sporadic opportunities, managing just five games spread across four years as he struggled to command a permanent place in the lineup. Despite the Saints enduring a difficult period on the field during the early 1930s, Connell remained on the periphery of selection and ultimately drifted out of VFL football following the 1935 season without establishing himself as a regular senior player.
