Guy Rigoni (born 27 July 1974) is a former professional Australian rules footballer who played for Melbourne in the AFL.

Originally drafted from country side Myrtleford, Rigoni spent two years with Hawthorn's reserves but was unable to break into the senior side. After being delisted at the end of 1994, Rigoni returned to Myrtleford where he spent the next three years, before being picked up by Melbourne in the 1997 national draft. He made his debut in the opening round of 1998, and played 80 games in his first four years before a bulging disc in his back kept him out of football for the second half of 2001 and all of 2002. Delisted at the end of the season, Melbourne redrafted him and he was able to return to the field in 2003, adding another 27 games before retiring at the end of 2005.

Rigoni played one further season with VFL club Sandringham in 2006.
