Trevor Somerville (18 April 1944 – 22 December 2001)[1] was an Australian rules footballer who played with South Melbourne in the Victorian Football League (VFL).

A ruckman, Somerville came to South Melbourne from Latrobe Valley Football League club Trafalgar.[2] He made 49 league appearances for South Melbourne, from 1963 to 1967.[3] In 1968 he coached in the Northern Tasmanian Football Association, at North Launceston.[4] For the next two years he played with and coached Maffra, back in Latrobe Valley, then switched to Sale in 1971 and steered his new club to a premiership that season.[5][6]

He is the younger brother of Essendon player John Somerville.[7]
