Andrew Cross (born 13 April 1961) is a former Australian rules footballer who played with St Kilda, Fitzroy and Richmond in the Victorian Football League (VFL).

Cross, a rover, was recruited locally and made his league debut in 1979. He appeared just twice in 1980 and then didn't play senior VFL football in either of the next two seasons.[1] When he returned in 1983 he played the best football of his career, averaging 20 disposals and kicking 14 goals from his eight games.[1] The following year he made more regular appearances, playing 15 games.[1]

He finished his career with one seasons stints at both Fitzroy and Richmond.[1] At Fitzroy he missed just three games all year and then crossed to Richmond.[1] Despite commanding a high transfer fee, he played just once for his new club.[2]
