Charles Joseph "Charlie" Oliver (9 September 1874 – 29 December 1917) was an Australian rules footballer who played with Carlton in the Victorian Football League (VFL).
Oliver was a doctor by profession and played his early football at Carlton Imperials.[1] He played just one VFL game for Carlton, against Melbourne at the MCG, but kicked a goal from centre half forward.[2]
While serving with the Australian Army Medical Corps in World War I, Oliver was killed after falling off his horse outside his army camp in Seymour. He died of a cerebral haemorrhage two days later at the Base Military Hospital in Melbourne.[3]
