Bio
Recruited from the local Geelong Amateurs, Jack Tuohill was a mature-age recruit who earned his opportunity at VFL level during the significant player shortages caused by the Second World War. Making his debut at twenty-five years of age in the 1944 season, he joined a Geelong outfit that was struggling to field a consistent lineup due to military enlistments. Tuohill was a mid-sized utility who played four senior matches in the hoops during the middle of the season, helping to fill the breach for the club without managing to impact the scoreboard. His brief career at the top level concluded at the end of that year, marking him as one of the vital local amateurs whose participation ensured the competition's continuity during the war years.
