Sean Charles

Sean Charles (born 18 May 1975) is a former Australian rules footballer who played with Melbourne, Carlton and St Kilda in the Australian Football League (AFL). Seen as a great talent from early on, he was promoted from the reserves after showing average form. His playing career had several interruptions, due to injury and a desire to spend more time at home. Throughout his career he suffered from a recurring scaphoid problem, and in his first and only game for Carlton he broke his leg. He was away from the game until 2000 when he was a surprise selection for St Kilda. He stayed with the club until 2001 when a lack of enthusiasm pushed him into retirement.
