Doug Fraser (born December 7, 1886) was an Australian rules footballer who played for Carlton in the Victorian Football League (VFL).

A Yarraville premiership player, Fraser broke into a strong Carlton team in the 1910 VFL season and established a place in the side as a follower. He kicked three goals in a win over Geelong at Princes Park.

Fraser is best remembered for his involvement in the bribery scandal that hit the league during the finals series. Together with Doug Gillespie and his childhood friend Alex Lang, Fraser was withdrawn from the Semi Final against South Melbourne while and club and league investigated allegations that they had accepted bribes to 'play dead'. Lang and Fraser were both found guilty and suspended for five years, a total of 99 league games.
