Playing career

Renowned for his high marking, he was used mainly as a follower and half back. He was a premiership player with Collingwood in 1903, after missing out on selection in the 1901 Grand Final despite playing every game that season and in the 1902 decider through injury.
Monohan captained the Victorian state team between 1903-1906.
His son, Jack Monohan, Jr., played for Collingwood in the 1920s.
Monohan was inducted into the Collingwood Football Club Hall of Fame in 2012. He was the 53rd Collingwood player to receive the honour.[2]
