John Norman Barker (1 July 1893 – 27 October 1984) was an Australian rules footballer who played in the Victorian Football League (VFL).
Barker played one game for University in 1913, but studies took over his years as a footballer. He returned in 1917 for Fitzroy Football Club, but managed only two more VFL games.[1] He was the younger brother of Gilbert Barker, who also played for Fitzroy and University.
