David Stirling (born 10 September 1962) is a former Australian rules footballer who played with the Sydney Swans in the Victorian Football League (VFL).

Stirling, a half forward flanker and wingman, came to the Swans from Springvale.[1][2] He missed the start of the 1983 VFL season with a hamstring injury, before debuting in Sydney's round 11 win over Footscray at the Sydney Cricket Ground, one of seven appearances that year.[1][3]
