Pat Garner (born 16 March 1987) is an Australian rules footballer who currently plays for the Brisbane Lions in the Australian Football League.

Pat was recruited in the second round of the 2004 AFL draft, at draft pick number 27 overall, by the Brisbane Lions from Western Magpies AFC.

He is currently seen as a developing key-position player, who can play in forward or in defence. In the 2005 season, he played 19 games in the QAFL, and was looking for senior selection in 2006.
