Trevor Graeme Barker (7 October 1956 – 26 April 1996) was an Australian rules footballer who played for the St Kilda Football Club in the Victorian Football League (VFL). One of the VFL's pin-up boys with his teen-idol appearance, blonde hair and suntanned skin, "Barks" was one of the finest high-marking players of his era; and, although of slight build, his skill and athleticism were matched by raw courage and competitiveness. More than any other player before or since, he was the living embodiment of St Kilda's club motto Fortius quo fidelius (strength through loyalty), staying with his beloved club through the toughest period in its history despite receiving better offers from other clubs. He currently holds the VFL/AFL record for the most career games without playing in a final, follow rdf:langString

He currently holds the VFL/AFL record for the most career games without playing in a final, followed by teammate Geoff Cunningham. After his early passing from cancer at the age of 39, St Kilda honoured Barker's memory by naming the club's best-and-fairest award in his name. He was posthumously inducted into the Australian Football Hall of Fame in 2019.
