Brett Hodgson (born 12 February 1978 in Liverpool, New South Wales) is an Australian former professional rugby league footballer of the 1990s, 2000s, and 2010s, and the current Assistant Coach at Widnes Vikings working alongside Denis Betts. A New South Wales State of Origin representative goal-kicking fullback, he played his club football in the National Rugby League (NRL) for the Western Suburbs Magpies, Parramatta Eels and Wests Tigers (with whom he won the 2005 NRL premiership), and in Super League for Huddersfield (with whom he won the 2009 Man of Steel Award) and Warrington Wolves (with whom he won the Challenge Cup and the Lance Todd Trophy). Hodgson also gained representative selection for Exiles and City NSW.

An Ingleburn RSL (Campbelltown) junior, Hodgson was graded to the Western Suburbs Magpies. He made his first-grade debut under coach Tommy Raudonikis in round 11 of the 1997 ARL season, when Wests met the South Queensland Crushers at Campbelltown Stadium.
