[edit] Fremantle Dockers
After winning the 1995 Swan Districts Best & Fairest award, Gerard Neesham saw him as a natural Selection. Neesham was right as Callaghan became a star in his 5 years at the club. No job was to big for Callaghan, he was at home playing as a midfielder or scoring goals as a forward pocketer. He was often found picking himself up from the bottom of a pack after the umpire whistled for a ball up
[edit] St. Kilda
In 2000 The Dockers traded Callaghan to the Saints in exchange for Matthew Carr. Callaghan time at the Saints was marred by injury (He spent two of 4 years out with injury) So in 2004 after only 29 games for St Kilda he decided to call it quits.
[edit] Swan Districts
Craig now finds himself back in WA playing WAFL Footy for the Swan Districts.
