Blake Ferguson (born 20 March 1990) is an Australian professional rugby league footballer and amateur boxer. He is currently signed to the Sydney Roosters of the NRL. An Australian international and New South Wales State of Origin representative winger, he previously played for the Cronulla-Sutherland Sharks and Canberra Raiders.

Ferguson is a nephew of Solomon Haumono and a cousin of Anthony Mundine who is a boxer and a former rugby league player for St George Illawarra Dragons He is also eligible for the Indigenous All Stars, by account of his indigenous heritage.

Ferguson is managed by Sam Ayoub and was previously managed by his uncle Solomon Haumono.

In 2009, while playing for the Sharks, Ferguson was just beaten by Jamal Idris as the rookie of the year at the 2009 Dally M Awards.

In 2010, he was called up to play for the Indigenous All-Stars replacing the injured Justin Hodges. In that match he famously ran down Israel Folau.

Following a clause in his contract that allowed him to leave the Sharks if coach Ricky Stuart left, Ferguson also left the club at the end of 2010. He signed a 2-year deal to play with the Canberra Raiders starting from 2011. He was the Raiders top try-scorer for the season.

In 2012, Ferguson had one of his best seasons on the field, representing the Country New South Wales rugby league team and making the Australia national rugby league team train-on squad.
