Jason Hadfield Dunstall (born 14 August 1964) is a former Australian rules footballer who played for the Hawthorn Football Club in the Australian Football League (AFL). Originally from Queensland, Dunstall was one of the first of a generation of big-bodied, lead-up full-forwards who could also out-wrestle opponents for position in a marking contest, while remaining an agile, team-orientated player. He was a full-forward during an era in which power forwards—including Tony Lockett, Gary Ablett Sr., Warwick Capper, Allen Jakovich, Simon Beasley, Saverio Rocca, John Longmire, Tony Modra and Peter Sumich—dominated the league goalkicking. He is one of only six players to have kicked over 1,000 career goals in the VFL/AFL, and only Lockett and Collingwood's Gordon Coventry have kicked more career goals. In an interview in 2011, champion North Melbourne footballer Wayne Carey regarded Dunstall as the best player he had seen and played against. In 2024, he was promoted to be one of just 32 Legends in the Australian Football Hall of Fame. After finishing as a player, Dunstall became a prominent football media personality, commentating matches for various radio stations in Melbourne and appearing regularly on Fox Footy as the host of the show Bounce.
