Chris Hemley

Chris Hemley (born 8 September 1977) is a former Australian rules footballer who played for St Kilda in the Australian Football League (AFL) in 1995.[1] He was recruited from the Geelong Falcons in the TAC Cup with the 13th selection in the 1994 AFL Draft. This draft selection was part of the compensation received by St Kilda for trading Tony Lockett to Sydney.[2] After playing just one game for St Kilda in 1995, he was delisted, but was later recruited by Geelong with the 28th selection in the 1998 Rookie Draft. However, he never played another senior AFL game.
