It is with deep sadness that the Bulldogs advise of the passing of Club legend Geoff Robinson.

Geoff Robinson, affectionately known as "Robbo," played an instrumental role in the success of the Bulldogs during the late 1970s and 1980s. Debuting for the Club in 1977, Geoff quickly established himself as a formidable forward, renowned for his toughness.

Geoff made 139 first grade appearances for the Bulldogs, scoring 6 tries, featuring in the Bulldogs premiership victories in 1980 and 1984 as well as the 1986 Grand Final. Geoff's hard-hitting style and relentless work ethic on the field earned him admiration from teammates, opponents, and fans alike.

Geoff was awarded Life Membership of the Football Club in 1984.

After Retiring, he then coached the Canterbury Under 21’s side to a Premiership in 1991.

Geoff will be sorely missed, but his memory will forever be etched in the history of the Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs. We are grateful for the incredible contributions he made to our Club.
