Con Regan is a legend of the East Fremantle Football Club and to West Australian football. His name is synonymous with Fremantle and is as much part of the Port as Cicerellos, the Wool Stores, or the Esplanade.He is a life member of the East Fremantle Football Club, full back in  their Team of the Century, a member of the WAFL 200 Club, a member of the Fremantle City Hall of Fame, a Legend in the Fremantle Football Club’s Hall of Legends, and recipient of the Jack Titus Recognition of Service Award for his football involvement with football in Fremantle.The Regan family have given East Fremantle Football Club outstanding service over the years, but the contributions by Con were well and truly above the norm. From his junior football days in 1941, he had an involvement spanning almost seventy years, only brought to an untimely end by his recent passing.  Con Regan played the first of his 261 league games with East Fremantle in 1953,being the first East Fremantle player to reach the 200 mark.    A tough no frills player, he was the consummate backman, and it was as a resolute, high marking, long kicking defender that he made his mark, and is best remembered for. He was also able to play forward with equal effectiveness when required, and in his third season was the club’s highest goalkicker with 65 goals. He played six times for Western Australia, including the 1961` Brisbane carnival, and was a member of Old East’s 1957 and 1965 premiership sides. A policeman, Con was transferred to Katanning after the 1965 season, where he left his legacy with the formation of the Central Great Southern Junior Sports Council at the same time as captain coaching the Wanderers Football Club. He later ventured to Donnybrook, where he took the local side to a premiership, and returning to Fremantle, won a flag as coach of the East Fremantle Sunday League Football Club.Con was also a very good water polo player with the Melville club, and played senior grade for over fifty years. When the Fremantle Dockers were formed, he was quick to be involved, and was the team manager for many years.Con Regan….a Fremantle legend and an ornament to the game of football in Western Australia.
