Jim Deane (born 22 January 1928) is a former Australian rules footballer who played with Richmond in the VFL and South Adelaide in the SANFL.

A half forward flanker, Deane is one of only two South Adelaide players to have won dual Magarey Medals. He won the first in 1953 and the second in 1957, although the latter was not awarded until 1998 when the league decided to give players who lost on a countback over the years their Medal retrospectively. Deane also won six best and fairest awards for South Adelaide and represented South Australia at interstate football on 15 occasions. In 1971 and 1972 he was the non-playing coach of South Adelaide.
