Norm Sharp (23 June 1934 – 8 October 2014)[1] was an Australian rules footballer who played with Geelong in the Victorian Football League during the 1950s.
A ruckman, Sharp was a premiership player in his debut season in 1952 and won a best and fairest two years later. A knee injury caused him to retire prematurely at the age of just 23.
