Chris Oliver (born 9 July 1982) is an Australian rules footballer who played with St Kilda in the Australian Football League (AFL).[1]

Early years[edit]

Oliver attended St Gregory's College as a teenager, but completed his schooling at Erindale College in Canberra. He played representative football for the NSW/ACT Rams.

AFL career[edit]

A ruckman, he spent a pre-season with Fremantle, prior to being recruited by St Kilda, as a rookie.[2] He made 10 appearances for St Kilda over three seasons, never playing more than two games in a row.[3] Instead he spent much of his time playing for Springvale in the Victorian Football League.

Post AFL[edit]

Oliver was delisted at the end of the 2003 season. He spent the next stage of his career with South Australian National Football League (SANFL) club Sturt, followed by a stint with Frankston in the Victorian Football League (VFL). He was at Corowa-Rutherglen in 2010, St Albans in 2011 and joined Numurkah in 2012.[4][5][6]
