Ian William Baker (born 4 August 1955) is a former Australian rules footballer who played with St Kilda and Richmond in the Victorian Football League (VFL).
Baker, a half-back, started his VFL career at St Kilda, where he had come to from Redan.[1] He had his best season in 1977 when he played 21 games and earned eight Brownlow Medal votes.[2] After four league seasons at St Kilda, Baker crossed to Richmond and made three home and away appearances for his new club in the 1980 VFL season, a premiership year.[2] He didn't play any more senior football for Richmond and would end up back in the Ballarat Football League.[3]
