Gordon Bowman

Gordon Bowman (born February 10, 1927) was an Australian rules footballer who played for Melbourne and Hawthorn in the VFL.

Bowman, originally from East Malvern, was a member of Melbourne's 1948 premiership team as a half forward flanker. He joined a struggling Hawthorn side in 1950 and remained with the club until the end of the 1951 season.

In the 1950s he played in Tasmania with Sandy Bay where he was again a premiership player. Such was his impact at the club that in 2001 he was named as one of their official 'Best 25 Players'. Bowman also played in a premiership team at Mayne in Queensland.
