George Robinson (25 May 1901 โ 19 November 1962) was an Australian rules footballer who played with Richmond in the Victorian Football League (VFL).[2]
Robinson was a regular in the Richmond team in 1925 and 1926, but lost selection in 1927, playing only three games for the season โ two early season games, and the 1927 VFL grand final, for which he was called up on the day as a late replacement for the injured Jack Baggott.[3]
