Michael Moncrieff (born 19 August 1952) is a former Australian rules footballer who played for Hawthorn in the VFL during the 1970s and early 80s.
In 1977, with the return of champion Tasmanian full-forward Peter Hudson, Moncrieff moved to the backline.
As was permitted by the rules, Moncrieff trained and played practice matches with St Kilda during the pre-season while St Kilda and Hawthorn continued to negotiate his clearance and transfer fee; but negotiations broke down and a transfer fee became nearly impossible to assess when Moncrieff suffered a serious knee injury in a practice match, which saw him miss fifteen months of football and ultimately retire from the VFL without playing a match for St Kilda.
Following this case, the rules were amended to require a player's clearance to be finalized before he could train with his new club.
