Dan Foley (born 25 October 1960) is a former Australian rules footballer who played with Richmond in the Victorian Football League (VFL).

Foley, a centre half-forward, started his career at West Perth, the club his father Brian had played for.[1] Brian Foley won the Sandover Medal in 1959.[2]

He debuted for Richmond midway through the 1983 VFL season and finished the year with six appearances.[3] A highlight was a five goal haul in Richmond's round 18 win over eventual grand finalists Essendon.[3] During his time at Richmond he struggled with injuries and played only one league game in 1984.[1][3] In the 1985 pre-season, Foley trained with Melbourne, but returned to Richmond and made five further appearances.[3][4]

After his time at Richmond ended, Foley played again with West Perth. He won both the club's best and fairest and leading goal-kicker awards in the 1986 WAFL season.[5] He kicked 46 goals from 20 games.[6]

In 2016, he and his wife Carleen are competing contestants on the Australian reality TV series The Block.[7][8]
