Barry Mulcair (born 1 October 1948) is a former Australian rules footballer who played for the Carlton Football Club in the Victorian Football League (VFL).
Recruited from the South Bendigo Football Club,[1] Mulcair made his debut for Carlton in Round 13 of the 1970 VFL season against Geelong.
Named on the half-back flank, he was one of their best players, but shortly after the game notified club officials of his intent to return to country football.
[2] Mulcair was eventually persuaded to stay and ended up winning the "Best First Year Player Award".
He played at half back in Carlton's premiership side that year.
