Michael Murphy was a strong key forward from Renmark who played three games for North Melbourne in 1988, returned to Glenelg, and was added to the inaugural Crows list in 1991. He kicked six goals in his second game for the club, going on to boot five-goal hauls on three occasions in 1992.

Injuries and suspensions limited him to just 16 games before he moved to Brisbane for a fresh start. Unfortunately injures brought his career to an end following the 1993 season.
