Robert Dickson (born 14 November 1963) is a former Australian rules footballer in the VFL/AFL, film director and former winner of reality show Australian Survivor.
Dickson made his VFL debut with the Hawthorn Football Club in 1988 after being recruited from Morwell, Victoria. He was a fringe player for the Hawks who played in the midfield (at 180cm and 75kg), and spent a lot of time in the reserves side. He was selected as an emergency for the 1989 VFL Grand Final. He went on to play 17 games (booting 12 goals) for Hawthorn in 3 seasons, from 1988-1990. He then moved to the Brisbane Bears where he lasted for one season, in 1991. He played in the 1991 reserves premiership side for Brisbane (coached by Rodney Eade).
Following his football career Dickson has been involved as a film director, his most famous production being the 2004 television documentary Shane Crawford Exposed, which caused a great deal of controversy for its intimations that Shane Crawford was gay[citation needed].
He was also the winner of Australian Survivor.
