Robert J. "Bluey" McClure (born 5 June 1925) is a former Australian rules footballer who played with Essendon in the VFL.

A ruckman, McClure served in the navy prior to joining Essendon. He became a key component in a successful Essendon side, winning premierships in 1946, 1949 and 1950. A knee injury forced him to retire during the 1951 season.
