William Thomas "Bill" Ahern (25 June 1874 – 27 January 1920)[1] was an Australian rules footballer who played with St Kilda in the Victorian Football League (VFL).

Ahern, originally from Melbourne Grammar, had already played for two Victorian Football Association (VFA) clubs before joining St Kilda in 1896. He began his VFA career at Fitzroy in 1893, then crossed to Melbourne in 1895.[2]

He made his VFL debut for St Kilda in the opening round of the inaugural VFL season in 1897 and played a total of 12 games. Along with Reg Stewart, Ahern was St Kilda's joint leading goal-kicker that year, with six goals.[3]
