Paul Hamilton (born June 19, 1967) is a former Australian rules footballer who played with Essendon in the VFL/AFL during the late 1980s and early 1990s.

Hamilton was a defender and usually occupied a back pocket for Essendon. After playing in a Preliminary Final in 1989, Hamilton participated in the Grand Final the following season. He brought up his 100th league game in Essendon's 1991 encounter against Carlton at Waverley Park.
