He currently holds the VFL/AFL record for the most career games without playing in a final, followed by teammate Geoff Cunningham. After his early passing from cancer at the age of 39, St Kilda honoured Barker's memory by naming the club's best-and-fairest award in his name. He was posthumously inducted into the Australian Football Hall of Fame in 2019. (en)
