Terry Ogden (25 March 1911 – 2 March 1935) was an Australian rules footballer who played with Melbourne and Carlton in the Victorian Football League (VFL).
Ogden, born in Northcote, was the son of former Essendon captain-coach Percy and brother of teammate Gordon. Before arriving at Melbourne he had played locally for Northcote CYMS and with the Essendon reserves team.[1] A wingman, he played the first of three games for Melbourne in a thrilling win over Hawthorn at the MCG, in round 14 of the 1935 season.
After transferring to Carlton, Ogden played 15 senior games in 1934, all in successive weeks.[2]
Early in 1935 he fell seriously ill with pleurisy in both of his lungs and required a blood transfusion from club secretary Newton Chandler.[3] One week later, on 2 March, Ogden died from the illness. Buried in Coburg Cemetery, Ogden had Carlton's "Most Improved" player award named after him.[4]
