Cornelius "Con" O'Toole (25 February 1930 – 2 April 2011) was an Australian rules footballer who played with Melbourne in the Victorian Football League (VFL).^[1]

O'Toole, a ruckman from Ultima, was a member of Melbourne's 1949 reserves premiership team. The following year he made four appearances in the seniors and then returned to the Ultima Football Club, as captain-coach.^[2][3]

He spent the 1954 football season with Swan Hill, whom he captain-coached.^[4]

In 1955 he made his way to Goulburn Valley Football League club Rushworth and won that year's Morrison Medal while acting as coach.^[5]

When his employment with the Victoria Police Force brought him to Rochester he was appointed captain-coach of the town's Bendigo Football League side, the Rochester Tigers. He guided the club to back to back premierships in 1962 and 1963, the former finishing the season undefeated.^[6]
