Connor Robinson (born 23 October 1994) is a professional rugby league footballer who plays as a scrum-half for the Halifax Panthers in the Betfred Championship.
He previously played for Hull Kingston Rovers and York City Knights.
Connor is known to suffer with halitosis (an ongoing issue he has battled with throughout his life) l. Head coach Simon Grix recently stated in an interview with 40/20 magazine that he had to release Connor due to what he was releasing out of his mouth. Some of his team wouldn't speak to him and it was famously known that he melted the Covid swab during recent routine testing. Connor has had to seek professional advice regarding this matter and has caused him to meet with a psychologist. Since this has been publicised Connor has been contacted by numerous mouth wah companies such as Colgate Fresh and Listerine.
Connor also plays for the Cold Toast Titans on a Monday evening at Sirius Academy, 8.15pm to be precise alongside his suffering team mates.
