Football

 * "Ted Collis, the Tasmanian at Hawthorn, is unorthodox in his kicking methods. Shooting for goal at an angle last night, he kicked eight through from 10 shots. He held the ball side on, and it went through like a boomerang." — The Argus, 3 May 1946.

With the TANFL competition resuming in 1945, Collis played for a season under ex-Geelong captain-coach, Jack Metherell, at the North Hobart Football Club and was the TANFL's leading goalkicker.
