Ian Bruce Robson (born 28 October 1947) is an Australian former rugby league player.
A rangy second-rower, Robson was a strong runner with the ball and began his career in Ipswich, before arriving at Brisbane club Wests aged 20. He had a stint in England with the Warrington Wolves in 1968.[1]
Robson gained Queensland representative honours in 1969 and toured New Zealand that year with the national team, where he was kept out of the Test line-up by Ron Costello, Bob McCarthy and Col Weiss.[2] He was forced to retire the age of 25 due to injuries and later competed in equestrian events.[3]
