Jamie Merillo (born 27 November 1972) is an Australian rules footballer who played for the Fremantle Dockers between 1995 and 1997. He was drafted from Claremont in the WAFL as a foundation selection in the 1994 AFL Draft and played mainly as a rover.

Merillo broke his jaw in Fremantle's inaugural AFL match in 1995, but still managed to play 11 games that year. After only 4 more game in the next two seasons, he was delisted at the end of the 1997 season.

He was also a very good swimmer who competed in the backstroke finals of the Australian team qualifying trials for the Barcelona Olympics.[1]
