Justin Crawford (born 20 March 1977 in Finley) is a former Australian rules footballer who played with Sydney and Hawthorn in the Australian Football League (AFL) during the 1990s.

Crawford, the younger brother of Brownlow Medal winner Shane, was recruited from Tocumwal by Sydney as a zone selection. He was just 18 when he made his debut in 1995 and earned an AFL Rising Star nomination for a 26 disposal and two goal game against Fitzroy. An on-baller, Crawford took part in Sydney's qualifying final win over Hawthorn in 1996 but had just seven disposals and was dropped for the preliminary final for make way for Tony Lockett's return.

He joined his brother at Hawthorn in 1997 after being traded for David McEwan and the 17th selection of the 1996 AFL Draft, used on Rowan Warfe. Playing mostly as a forward, Crawford put together 15 games in 1997. He retired from the AFL at the end of the 1998 season, aged just 21.

He resurfaced in the WAFL to play with South Fremantle and was part of the club's premiership in 2005 but left the club at the end of that year.
