Steven Hocking (born 18 January 1965) is a former Australian rules footballer who played with Geelong in the VFL/AFL. He is the elder brother of former Geelong captain Garry.

A back pocket specialist, Hocking played with the Cats for over a decade and fell one game short of reaching 200 games when he retired after ending up on the losing 1994 AFL Grand Final team. He was named as the club's 'Most Determined Player' award four times including three consecutive seasons from 1988 to 1990.

In August 2017, Hocking was appointed AFL General Manager of Football Operations.[1] He had served as Geelong's head of football.[2]
