Robert Vincent Jerome Coombs (born 20 July 1959) played first-class cricket for Somerset in 1985 and 1986.
Coombs was a tall left-arm orthodox spin bowler and a tail-end right-handed batsman.
Brought into the first-team late in an unexpectedly poor season for the county side, Coombs made an immediate impact, taking the first five Middlesex wickets to fall in a rain-ruined match at Weston-super-Mare at a cost of 58 runs.
[3] Wisden Cricketers' Almanack noted approvingly his "good bowling action and attacking bent".
[3] More frequent games in 1986, however, brought little success and the bowling figures from his first match remained the best of his short first-class career.
