Coghlan, said to have been the smallest player of his era, earned his nickname of "Skeeter" when during a junior high jump competition he successfully made it over a target which was three inches above his height.[2] Not surprisingly, Coghlan played his football as a rover. He won a Gardiner Medal in 1949 for his efforts in the league seconds. He took a while he establish himself in the Collingwood senior side, with just four appearances from his first two seasons.[3] Over the next two years however he played 27 games.[3] Collingwood went on to win the premiership in 1953, but Coghlan was at Hawthorn, having applied for and been granted a clearance to the Hawks. Coghlan was the leading goal-kicker for Hawthorn in three successive seasons from 1953 to 1955.[4] His tally of 19 goals in 1953 remains the lowest ever total to top the Hawthorn goal-kicking.[3] After retiring, Coghlan worked as a football journalist. He was a teacher of senior school maths and physics at Melbourne Girls Grammar school and taught at Melbourne High School and at Northcote High School. He was also a television and radio football commentator.[5] References1. ^{{cite web|url=https://forever.collingwoodfc.com.au/players/kevin-coghlan/|title=Kevin Coghlan|publisher=Collingwood Forever|accessdate=27 August 2014}} {{Hawthorn leading goalkickers}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Coghlan, Kevin}}2. ^{{cite book|last1=Holmesby|first1=Russell|last2=Main|first2=Jim|title=The Encyclopedia Of AFL Footballers| publisher=BAS Publishing|year=2007|isbn=978-1-920910-78-5}} 3. ^1 2 {{cite web |url=http://afltables.com/afl/stats/players/K/Kevin_Coghlan.html |title=AFL Tables: Kevin Coghlan |website=afltables.com}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=http://australianfootball.com/players/player/kevin%2Bcoghlan/7787| title=Kevin Coghlan - Player Bio| publisher=Australian Football|accessdate=14 August 2015}} 5. ^The Age,[https://news.google.com.au/newspapers?id=8e5UAAAAIBAJ&sjid=8JIDAAAAIBAJ&pg=2679,1703955 "Better go for the lowly"], 20 March 1980, p. 23 6 : 1929 births|Australian rules footballers from Victoria (Australia)|Collingwood Football Club players|Hawthorn Football Club players|Australian rules football commentators|2002 deaths |
