Barney Lazarus (18 December 1879 – 6 May 1962) was an Australian rules footballer who played for the Carlton Football Club in the Victorian Football League (VFL).[1]
Lazarus made his senior VFL debut in 1902, playing seven games for Carlton. Following his retirement from football, Lazarus moved to Sydney and married there in 1912.[2] In 2015 it was discovered that Lazarus was Jewish, making him one of the few Jews to have played senior VFL/AFL football.[2]
