Gordon Carey Morrissey Шаблон:Postnominals (8 July 1894 – 8 March 1970) was an Australian rules footballer who played for the Melbourne University Football Club[1] while a medical student at Melbourne University. Due to the declaration of World War I, Morrissey only played in 2 VFL games.

Morrissey served in World War I[2] before embarking on a medical career in Ingham, Queensland. He was appointed an Officer of the Order of the British Empire[3] for his work in addressing an outbreak of Leptospirosis in the Ingham region in the 1930s through introducing the practice of burning cane before harvesting. He later became superintendent of Ingham Hospital.[4]
