George Sutherland (24 February 1876 – 19 November 1956) was an Australian rules footballer who played for St Kilda in the Victorian Football League (VFL).
Sutherland, a Collegians recruit, was born in Scotland.[1] He made his debut in the opening round of the 1900 VFL season and kicked three goals from full-forward to help St Kilda register a rare victory. With a season-ending tally of 13 goals, Sutherland topped the St Kilda goal-kicking that year.[2]
