Brent Staker (born May 23, 1984) is an Australian rules footballer in the AFL, who plays for the West Coast Eagles.

Staker grew up in Broken Hill in remote country New South Wales.

Recruited from NSW/ACT Rams (Under 18s), he made his debut in 2003.

In round seven 2004, he earned a AFL Rising Star nomination when he kicked three goals against Melbourne.

Staker was punched by Barry Hall on April 12, 2008 in a game against the Sydney Swans at ANZ Stadium [1]. Hall was suspended for seven weeks [2]. Later in the same match Hall broke his wrist, potentially keeping him out of the game for more than his suspension period.
