Colin Garland (born 28 April 1988) is a professional Australian rules footballer in the Australian Football League, currently with the Melbourne Football Club.
Beginning his playing years at the North Hobart in the SFL in Tasmania, Garland was recruited by the Demons from the TAC Cup side Tassie Mariners at pick No. 46 in the 2006 AFL Draft.
