Fred Goldsmith (born 20 August 1932) is a former Australian rules footballer who played with South Melbourne in the Victorian Football League. A fireman, Goldsmith started his career in 1951 as a half forward flanker, having been recruited by South Melbourne from Spotswood. In 1952, he was shifted to fullback; and, in 1955, he became the first ever (and so far, only) specialist fullback to win the Brownlow Medal.
