Neil Ferguson (born 28 November 1945) is a former Australian rules footballer who played with Hawthorn in the Victorian Football League (VFL).
Ferguson came to Hawthorn from Melbourne High School and was 18 when he made his VFL debut in 1964.[1] He played as a ruckman but towards the end of his time at Hawthorn was also used to good effect up forward, kicking 19 goals in 1968 and 21 goals in 1969.[2]
The second half of his football career was spent in Western Australia, with five years at East Fremantle and a season with Claremont. He was the first ruckman in East Fremantle's 1974 premiership winning side.[3]
