Alfred George Egan (3 April 1910 – 21 January 1962) was an Australian rules footballer who played with Carlton and North Melbourne in the Victorian Football League (VFL).[1]
The son of Edward Egan, and Margaret Egan, née Farrell, Alfred George Egan was born into the Gunditjmara indigenous community at Wallacedale, near Condah, in Western Victoria, on 3 April 1910.
Although his brother, Allan Edmund Egan (1914–1951), was cleared from "Melbourne Boys" to the North Melbourne Seconds in 1937, he did not play any senior VFL football.[2] [3]
He married Gweneth May Cavenagh in 1950.
Egan was the first Indigenous Australian to play for Carlton and also the first to play with North Melbourne.[4]
He appeared as a centre half-forward in the 1932 VFL Grand Final, as a replacement for an injured Jack Green, but wasn't able to steer his side to a win.[5] [6]
He died at Burnley, Victoria on 21 January 1962.[7]
