Teams

Recruited from Trentham in central Victoria, Ted Alcorn was a country footballer who earned a brief opportunity with St Kilda during the 1909 VFL season. Arriving at the Junction Oval as a 25-year-old hopeful, he was selected for just two senior matches as the Saints struggled at the bottom of the ladder, trying various players in an attempt to find a competitive edge. Unable to secure a permanent spot in the lineup, his tenure at the elite level was short-lived, and he remains a minor footnote in the club's history as one of many regional recruits who were trialled but ultimately could not establish a long-term VFL career.
