Robert 'Bob' Bradley (10 September 1924 – 4 August 1999) was an Australian rules footballer who played for Essendon in the VFL during the late 1940s.
Bradley attended St Joseph's CBC North Melbourne in the period around 1938 to 1940. While at school he developed his sporting abilities, eventually gaining places in its senior cricket team and senior football team in 1940.[1]
Bradley went on to join his local club and was one of Essendon's wingmen in their strong Dick Reynolds led side. They made the grand final in each of the four seasons which Bradley played and he was part of three of them. After playing in losing grand finals in his first two seasons he was a member of Essendon's 1949 premiership team. It was the 1950 decider that he missed out on, due to a shoulder injury.[2]
