About Bob Muir
Lived 1907 – 1973 (aged 66). Bob Muir was an Australian australian rules football player and australian rules football coach.
Robert Muir (6 April 1907 – 11 June 1973) was an Australian rules footballer who played with Collingwood, Footscray and Fitzroy in the Victorian Football League (VFL).
Under Jock McHale, Collingwood won premierships in each of Muir's first three seasons at the club but he didn't participate in any of the finals campaigns. He missed the entire 1930 VFL season when Collingwood made it four in a row. He finally got regular game time in 1932 and made 17 appearances for the year, including two finals. It was however his last season with Collingwood and he finished his VFL career with stints at Footscray and Fitzroy.
Muir continued playing football in the VFA, with Preston, which he coached in 1938 when Wyn Murray resigned during the season.
