George William Tatham (24 December 1910 – 23 February 1976) was an Australian rules footballer who played with Collingwood in the Victorian Football League (VFL).
After 23 games with Collingwood, Tatham played for Camberwell in the Victorian Football Association until being struck off the list early in the 1938 season for disciplinary reasons. Camberwell refused to grant permits for the three suspended players until the next year, at which time Tatham moved to Mordialloc.
Tatham later served in the Australian Army during World War II.
