Edward "Ted" Jackson (16 March 1925 – 5 February 1996)[1] was an Australian rules football player in the Victorian Football League (VFL).
Edwards was one of few league players of Indigenous Australian heritage in the 1940s.
[2] At the end of the 1947, "Clubman", the Weekly Times football correspondent rated ex-Echuca Melbourne player, Eddie Jackson, the best of all of the first-year "former country players" in that year's VFL Competition: the second-best was the ex-Wycheproof Collingwood player, Alex Denney, and the third-best was the ex-Granya Footscray player, Norm Webb.
Jackson won the 1954 Bendigo Football League best and fairest award, the Michelsen Medal[4][5] after he returned to play with Echuca.
