Joe D. F. Hogan (27 November 1875 – 21 December 1943) was an Australian rules footballer who played with St Kilda in the Victorian Football League (VFL).[1] He also played with the club when they competed in the Victorian Football Association (VFA).

Hogan was a centre half-back, regarded as one of the finest St Kilda players in their early VFL years, a period where the club was little more than a chopping block. In his career, St Kilda won 22 and drew 2 of the 125 matches he played in (18.4% success rate).

He was appointed captain in 1902, but the club lost all 17 matches that season.

Off the field, he worked in the legal profession, and as a result, he played just six matches in 1899-1900, and missed the 1901 season.[2]
