Glenn Archer (born 24 March 1973) is a former Australian rules footballer who spent his entire career with the North Melbourne Football Club in the Australian Football League, debuting in 1992 and eventually playing 311 games, a club record that Brent Harvey later passed. He built a reputation as one of the most courageous players the game has seen: the AFL Players Association gave him its Robert Rose Award for most courageous player six times between 1998 and 2006. He won the Norm Smith Medal as best on ground in the 1996 premiership team, played in premiership sides in 1996 and 1999, was selected All-Australian three times and represented Victoria in State of Origin matches. North Melbourne voted him Shinboner of the Century in 2005, and he was inducted into the Australian Football Hall of Fame in 2012.
