Teams

A local product born in Hotham East, Jacky Lock progressed through the North Melbourne Juniors to become a foundational player during the club's historic elevation from the VFA to the VFL. He featured in the Association side in 1924 before earning selection on the wing for North Melbourne's inaugural League match against Geelong in Round 1, 1925. Designated Shinboner #12, Lock was characterized by his pace and evasive turning ability, providing essential run and carry during the club's difficult formative years in the elite competition. He remained a consistent selection for three seasons before fading from the senior lineup in 1928, eventually clearing to Williamstown after playing his part in establishing the Roos' foothold in the VFL.
