Steve Darmody (1890–1969) was a pioneer Australian who saw active service in the British army in WWI.

A promising hurdler in his youth, Darmody joined the South Sydney Club in 1910 initially as a goal-kicking winger.

[1] Following the tour he stayed in England and along with Herb Gilbert and Jim Devereux he joined Hull FC for whom he made 89 appearances between 1912 and 1914.

Alongside Gilbert and Devereux, Darmody played as a forward in Hull FC's 6–0 victory over Wakefield Trinity in the 1914 Challenge Cup Final during the 1913–14 season at Thrum Hall, Halifax, in front of a crowd of 19,000.

In 1921, when the airship R38 split in two over the River Humber and fell into the shallow estuary, Darmody searched through the rubble for survivors and was called to give evidence at the coronial inquest.
