John Eric Nash (born 16 April 1950) is an Australian former cricketer and Australian rules footballer, playing 51 first-class and seven List A matches for South Australia between 1970 and 1981[1] and 22 games between 1969 and 1972 for Norwood Football Club in the South Australian National Football League.[2]

During the late 1970s, when many of Australia's top cricketers were playing in World Series Cricket, Nash was considered a possibility to make the Australian side, yet by 1981 Nash's form had fallen away to the point he had been relegated to Sturt Cricket Club's B side.[3]

Nash's son Jay Nash was a South Australian cricket youth representative.[4]
