A tough and sometimes controversial figure because of his aggressive play, for two years, 1926 and 1927, ‘Jockey’ Kelly was the best lock forward in NSW, but there was no Test football in either of these seasons. His play was compared to some of the game’s greatest ever players, even Dally Messenger. In 1928, an untimely suspension cost him a Test jumper. In 1929, coach Frank Burge made him Saints captain

Played a total of 57 games for St George
