Mark Anthony Harding (born 28 December 1955) is an Australian former rugby union international.[1]

Harding was born and raised in Christchurch, New Zealand. He attended Christchurch Boys' High School, captaining the school's 1st XV in 1973. Before relocating to Australia in 1980, he was a New Zealand rugby representative at underage level, as well as a member of the New Zealand national water polo team.[2]

A prop, Harding played for Sydney clubs St. George and Port Hacking. He earned a Wallabies call up for the 1983 tour of Europe and was capped in a Test against Italy at Rovigo, as part of an inexperienced front row.[3]
