Susan Elizabeth Fuhrmann (born 30 July 1986), known as "the Fuhrmannator", is an Australian retired international netball player. She was an Australian Institute of Sport scholarship holder. Fuhrmann debuted for the Australian national team in 2006, and was also a member of the Australian team that won silver at the 2006 Commonwealth Games and gold at the 2011 Netball World Championships. She used her height advantage to intimidate her opponents, especially Irene van Dyk, New Zealand's top shooter.

Fuhrmann played in the ANZ Championship for the West Coast Fever, where she was the tallest player in the competition, along with Queensland Firebirds shooter Romelda Aiken, both standing at 1.96 m (6 ft 5 in). She previously played for the Perth Orioles (now West Coast Fever, 2007) and the AIS Canberra Darters (2004–06) in the Commonwealth Bank Trophy.

Fuhrmann made 33 appearances for the Australian Netball Diamonds (the national team), her last appearance being at the end of the 2011 season and she was not selected for the squad for the 2012 season. On 2 February 2013 Fuhrmann announced her retirement from netball after a highly decorated international and domestic career.
