Maighan Fogas (born 10 October 1995) is an Australian rules footballer who played with the Geelong Football Club in the AFL Women's (AFLW).

Fogas lives in Clunes, Victoria and is one of five siblings.

Fogas was subsequently drafted with selection number 47 by Geelong in the 2018 AFL Women's draft, [1] and made her AFLW debut during the first round of the 2019 season, against Collingwood at GMHBA Stadium. [3] She was delisted at the end of the 2019 season, after only playing a single game. [4]
