Ger Spillane, born 3 March 1981, is a member of the Cork inter-county Gaelic football team and is one of the Vodafone GAA All Stars for the 2006 season. After several successful seasons with the Cork junior Gealic football side, he made his senior debut against Offally in a league game in 2006.
After some good performances, he quickly became an important part of the first team, playing at centre half back. In the championship, he put in some great performances, including two Man of the Match awards against Kerry in the Munster Senior Football Championship final and Donegal in the All-Ireland Senior Football Championship quarter final. Cork were beaten in the semi-final by a rejuvenated Kerry team. Ger also plays for local club side Ballygarvan and divisional team Carrigdhoun.
Ger played a leading role in Ballygarvan, winning the Cork Junior Hurling Championship title in 2004. In his work life, Ger works as a farm machinery salesman and also works on his family farm.
