Maxwell George Rippon (11 October 1920 – 12 July 1985) was an Australian rules footballer who played with Fitzroy, South Melbourne and St Kilda in the Victorian Football League (VFL).

Rippon was a wingman, who arrived at Fitzroy from Heatherton. He didn't have much impact in his one-season stints with Fitzroy and South Melbourne, but was a regular fixture in the St Kilda team for three seasons.[2] While at St Kilda in 1945 he had a teammate, Ted Rippon, who was his uncle.[3] In 1946, he represented Victoria in an interstate fixture against South Australia. Once he left the VFL he continued his football career in the Victorian Football Association with Brighton.[4]
