Having
played initially
with Wodonga and
Elwood, Geoff Feehan
made his senior
league debut with
St Kilda as a twenty-two
year old in 1957.
He went on to play
44 VFL games in
three seasons with
the Saints, mainly
in the backlines
or as a follower,
before crossing
to South Australia
where he played
under his former
mentor Alan Killigrew
at Norwood. In his
first season with
the Redlegs he was
his side's best
player in a 5 point
grand final loss
to North Adelaide.
He also played in
the famous 'Turkish
Bath grand final'
the following year,
when Norwood lost
to West Adelaide.
Solid and tough
rather than spectacular,
Feehan had played
a total of 56 SANFL
games by the time
he retired in 1963.
