Timeline

1981

Mark McVeigh (born 26 January 1981) is a former professional Australian rules footballer who played for the Essendon Football Club in the Australian Football League (AFL).

He served as the caretaker senior coach of the Greater Western Sydney Giants following the resignation of Leon Cameron in 2022.

After having a slow start with a season high of 15 Disposals and 4 Marks, in his second season he suffered an injury and missed most of Essendons games.

In McVeigh's third season however, it was clear that the game had grown on him as he stood up as an up-and-coming youngster.

After playing 23 games in his third year of playing including the Grand Final against the Brisbane Lions in which Essendon lost, McVeigh had some promising stats with a consistent 11 – 18 in over half of every game he played.

McVeigh also went on to play the next 3 seasons in stellar form with Essendon who reached 3 consecutive semi-finals in which McVeigh played in all.

In the next 3 seasons McVeigh was a stand out performer for Essendon, with a high disposal & efficiency rate he was one of the club's main contributors and eventually was to become a part of the Leadership group and a role model to his younger rookies.

With disposals in the high 20s and a career high of 36 disposals, McVeigh was determined to get Essendon back on track.
