Mark Conway (born 20 May 1973) is a former Australian rules footballer who played with Port Adelaide in the Australian Football League (AFL).[1]

Conway, a tall forward, topped Central District's goal-kicking in 1996, with 57 goals.

When Port Adelaide formed a squad for their inaugural AFL season, Conway was picked up from Central District as a zone selection, along with teammates Jarrod Cotton, Stuart Dew and Nathan Steinberner.[2] He played just one senior AFL game for Port Adelaide, which was in round 14 of the 1997 season, against Hawthorn at Waverley Park.[3] The 24 year old had five disposals.[3]
