Bio
A rugged ruckman and defender originally from Wodonga, Geoff Feehan arrived at St Kilda via Elwood and made an immediate impact at the Junction Oval. He played every match in his debut 1957 season, winning the club's Best First Year Player award, and became a highly respected figure who claimed the Best Clubman title just two years later. Known for his physical approach and utility across key posts, Feehan's time in the VFL concluded when he followed former Saints coach Alan Killigrew to South Australia in 1960. He subsequently carved out a distinguished tenure with Norwood in the SANFL, playing in two Grand Finals and forming a formidable ruck partnership with Bill Wedding before settling in Adelaide permanently.
