He played in St. Helens' victory that season in the Lancashire County League. Due to being on the 1932 Great Britain Lions tour of Australia and New Zealand, Ellaby and Albert Fildes did not play in St. Helens' 9–5 victory over Huddersfield in the Championship Final during the 1931–32 season at Belle Vue, Wakefield on Saturday 7 May 1932.

During the 1933–34 Kangaroo tour of Great Britain Ellaby was selected to play on the wing for Great Britain in the first test against Australia. while at Wigan he played for England in 1935 against France, he later returned to St. Helens to complete his fantastic career.[6] Post-playingEllaby's position as all-time top try-scorer in the game's history with 446, was overtaken by Brian Bevan in 1954. Alf was, at various times, the landlord of the Veevers Arms (subsequently known as The Hop), 2–4 King Street, Blackpool, and the Ardwick Hotel, 32 Foxhall Road in Blackpool, together with the George Hotel, Selby Road, Garforth, becoming a Director of Castleford for a spell.[7]A member of the Saints' Past Players' Hall of Fame, he lived in Garforth until his death at the age of 90 in 1993. There was to be a last twist, however, quite befitting to one of the great sporting heroes of St.Helens. His ashes were taken home on the Saints 'A' Team coach after a match at Castleford, and were later scattered on the pitch at his beloved Knowsley Road. Ellaby was inducted into the Saints Greatest 17 in the Autumn of 2010 and was joined by Les Fairclough, his {{rlp|so}} who had done so much to keep the three-quarter line moving to provide Alf with so many of his scoring opportunities.
