Brian Frederick Staunton (1931 – 2021) was an Australian former rugby league footballer who played in the 1950s.
Staunton started his career at Manly Warringah Sea Eagles. He played with them for three years, starting in 1952 when he played five-eighth in the 3rd-Grade Premiership-winning team. He then moved to Balmain Tigers for four years between 1955–1958 and captained them in the 1956 Grand Final. Staunton scored 2 tries in the grand final as St George Dragons defeated Balmain 18–12.
