Don Furness (9 November 1930 – 21 February 2002) was an Australian rules footballer who played his entire career with Fitzroy in the VFL during the 1950s.
After leaving Fitzroy, Furness was coach of Port Melbourne (VFA) briefly in the 1960s.
Following his death in 2002, the richest and most prestigious 70m sprint event on the professional running calendar was named in his honour.
The Don Furness Memorial sprint has been held since 2003 and is held at the Avondale Heights Gift athletic meet each year (February) and has a handicap limit of 6.0m.
