John Norman (2 August 1909 – 23 March 1994) was an Australian rules footballer who played with Fitzroy in the Victorian Football League (VFL).
[1] The eldest son of Norwegian-born Jonas Mattias Elija Svehaug (1886–1968) and Sarah Ann Curran (1886–1968), John Svehaug was born in Newport, Wales (the city of his mother's birth) on 2 August 1909.
The family took the anglicised surname Norman when they emigrated to Australia in 1914.
After a single senior game in three years with Fitzroy, Norman transferred to Preston during the 1939 season[2] where he played either side of his period of service in the Royal Australian Air Force during World War II.
