George Campbell Lindsay (3 January 1863 – 5 April 1905)[1] was a Scotland international rugby union player.

Lindsay holds the record for the most number of tries by one player in a Six Nations match having scored 5 tries against Wales in the 1887 tournament (then the Home Championship). Scotland went on to win the championship that season.

Lindsay played in four international competitions in total between 1884 and 1887. His second appearance, against Ireland in 1885, was in an abandoned game, but he did not represent his country in the replay.
