John B. "Jack" Sidoli (1854 or 1855 – 3 November 1934) was an Australian rules footballer for Port Adelaide in the 19th century, noted for his versatility. He also played cricket for South Australia, and was a member of the Royal South Australian Yacht Squadron.[1] He was both a football and cricket umpire.

Sidoli worked as a shipwright and blacksmith in Port Adelaide, initially working in a partnership as Hosie & Sidoli before founding his own business, Sidoli and Son; which he retired from in about 1931. He had one brother, Angelo Gabriel, and two sisters, A. Ringer and L. A. Quinn.[2] Sidoli had three sons, Herbert, Jack and Arnold, and five daughters, Marion, Victoria, Madeline, Lorna and A. B. Mortimer.[3]
