Robert Ernest Briggs (20 November 1883 – 6 July 1955) was an Australian rules footballer who played with Fitzroy and St Kilda in the Victorian Football League (VFL).
Briggs played in Williamstown's 1907 premiership victory over West Melbourne at East Melbourne Cricket Ground in 1907 and kicked 59 goals in 1908, the highest season tally recorded to that date by a Williamstown player.
Briggs was also the first Williamstown player to kick 10 goals in a match, against North Melbourne at Arden Street Oval in round 16, 1908.
Switching to Fitzroy, Briggs made eight senior appearances in the 1909 VFL season[1][2] and didn't miss a game in 1910, winning Fitzroy's leading goal-kicker award with 30 goals.
