John Parker (born 17 May 1971) is a former Australian rules footballer who played with the Brisbane Bears in the Australian Football League (AFL).

Originally from Mornington Peninsula Football League (MPFL) club Frankston Bombers, Parker was chosen by the Bears with the first pick of the 1992 Mid-Season Draft.

Parker didn't play a senior game that year and instead made his debut during the 1993 season, against Carlton at Princes Park. [2]

The following week he played again, this time a home fixture against North Melbourne and he had 11 disposals. [2]

Parker's only other appearance came in a 104-point loss to Fitzroy. [2]
