Kerry Good (born November 10, 1958) is a former Australian rules footballer who played with North Melbourne in the VFL during the late 1970s and early 1980s.
Good was a forward and kicked 49 goals in the 1981 VFL season, including a career best ten goals against Melbourne in round 20. He is best for kicking a controversial after the siren goal to win North Melbourne the 1980 Escort Cup Grand Final (also known as the Night Series). North Melbourne were playing Collingwood at Waverley Park in the decider and Good marked a kick from Malcolm Blight at centre half-forward but the siren had sounded before the ball had reached him. The umpire however didn't signal the end of the game so Good was allowed to take his kick and goaled to give his side a three point win. A similar incident happened in a 2006 game between Fremantle and St Kilda but unlike on this occasion the result of the game was reversed.
