Tom McNamara (born 29 April 1990)[1] is an Australian rules footballer who played in the Australian Football League (AFL).
Taken at pick number 66 by the Melbourne Demons in the 2007 AFL National Draft, McNamara played as a tall defender. He was recruited from South Australian National Football League (SANFL) club South Adelaide, and was an AIS/AFL Academy graduate. He was the youngest player selected in the draft.[2]
McNamara made his senior AFL debut in 2009 and played three games for the season, but at the end of the following season, having failed to play a game in 2010, McNamara was delisted by Melbourne. He was, however, subsequently redrafted by the Demons in the Rookie Draft, only months later.[3] McNamara played only one senior match in 2011 and was again delisted at season's end.[4]
