Robert Mockler (18 April 1886 – 9 May 1966) was an Irish hurler who played as a midfielder for the Tipperary and Dublin senior teams from 1909 until 1924.
Mockler made his first appearance for the Tipperary team during the 1908 championship and was a regular member of the starting seventeen for the next few seasons.
Mockler began his club career with Horse and Jockey before later winning six county championship medals with Faughs in Dublin.
[2] Mockler began his club hurling career with Horse and Jockey but enjoyed little success in his own native county.
[citation needed] Three-in-a-row proved beyond Faughs, however, the team reached the championship decider once again in 1920.
[3] Mockler first came to prominence on the inter-county scene as a member of the Tipperary senior hurling team in 1908.
Before the game itself there was internal fighting within the Kilkenny camp and a selection row left the team short of substitutes.
In spite of this the team still went on to win the game, courtesy of three goals by Bill Hennerby and a fourth by Jimmy Kelly.
[8] Dublin surrendered their titles the following year, however, a 1–5 to 1–2 defeat of Kilkenny gave Mockler a second Leinster medal in 1919.
A goal blitz by Joe Phelan, Jimmy Walsh and Mick Neville gave Dublin a 4–9 to 4–3 victory.
