John Thomas Morgan (3 December 1920 – 16 July 2005) was an Australian rules footballer who played with Geelong in the Victorian Football League (VFL).[1]

Originally granted a permit to join Geelong in 1941,[2] Morgan's career was delayed by his service in the Australian Army during World War II.[3]

In 1946, Morgan was granted a permit to move to St Kilda, but he did not play a senior game for them.[4]
