Leo O'Halloran (11 June 1925 – 27 October 1990) was an Australian rules footballer who played with Geelong and South Melbourne in the Victorian Football League (VFL).

A follower and forward, O'Halloran was already 24 when he started his league career, having come to Geelong from Barwon Heads. While he was at the club in 1951 and 1952, Geelong won back to back premierships, but O'Halloran never featured in a single final. He struggled with injuries and the most he played in a season for Geelong was seven games in 1951. His performances for the Geelong seconds in 1952 won him a Gardiner Medal.

He spent the 1953 VFL season at South Melbourne, playing as a rover.
