}}John Frederick "Jack" Shelton (29 January 1903 - 8 March 1983)[1] was an Australian rules footballer who played for the St Kilda Football Club in the Victorian Football League (VFL).[2] FootballFrom Koo Wee Rup, in southeast Victoria, he played for St Kilda from 1925–1928.[2] His brother, James P. Shelton also played three senior games with St Kilda, two at the end of 1921, and one in round eight 1922.[2][3] A forward, he was St Kilda's leading goalkicker for three consecutive seasons in 1925, 1926 and 1927.[2][4][5] He also represented Victoria four times.[2] {{Quote box|title =7 August 1926, Corio Oval |quote = Geelong hit the lead in the third quarter, a signal for St Kilda to apply greater force. Down went Chambers of Geelong, a boundary umpire histrionically threatening to report a St Kilda player. Next, Rayson, a brilliant Geelong player and also the Geelong caretaker, fell to the ground and with broken ribs. He was carried dramatically to his house within the grounds. It was the signal for all hell to break loose. When the bell rang, the Saints sensed big trouble and tried to leave the ground hurriedly; Shelton and Stan Hepburn were engulfed on the field by swarming, shouting barrackers. The Geelong supporters had become an unruly, vengeful mob. Shelton was hit by an umbrella wielded with wounding purpose and suffered a torrent of abuse and blows. Another Geelong fan wrenched a picket from the fence and advanced on Shelton. Shelton smartly dodged the blow, grabbed the picket and held it to defend himself. A mounted policeman rode up, tore the picket from Shelton‘s hands and with arrogant urgency hustled Shelton and Hepburn up the race and into the rooms.

The spectators' response to Rayson's injury, specifically directed at Shelton was such that Shelton required police protection from attacks with fence pickets.[6][7][8][9][10][11] In his last season (1928), he was charged with attempting to kick Essendon's Tom Clarke in the ankle, during the eighth round match at Windy Hill on 4 June 1928. Given the possibility that Shelton might have been kicking at the ball, rather than either intending to kick Clarke in the ankle or mis-timing a trip, the tribunal found that the charge had not been sustained.[12] On 4 August 1928, during a torrid match against Carlton, at the Junction Oval,[13] Shelton was reported for striking Carlton's Ray Brew in the third quarter; the tribunal sustained the charge and Shelton was suspended for eight matches.[14] He did not play senior VFL football again.

They have mistakenly stated that it was the second Jack Shelton involved in this incident; when, in fact, not only was it most definitely this jack Shelton who was involved, but also a plain fact that the second Jack Shelton did not play in that St Kilda team, against Geelong, on that day,at all. 12. ^Football: Charges Against Players: Wittman and Shelton Absolved, The Argus, (Friday 8 June 1928), p.6. 13. ^Football: Desperate Encounter: St. Kilda Succeeds, The Argus, (Monday, 6 August 1928), p.6. 14. ^Football: Football Offence: J.
