Fred Robinson (born 13 June 1939) was an Australian rules footballer who played for North Melbourne in the Victorian Football League (VFL) during the early 1960s.

Recruited from Murchison, Robinson played four games in his debut season but ten in the next and gathered three Brownlow Medal votes. A defender, after only managing one appearance in 1962, Robinson joined Brunswick and performed well for the club as a full-back. He was good enough to be a VFA representative at the 1966 Hobart Carnival.
