Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Use Australian English Шаблон:Infobox AFL biography Ernest Michael Jamieson (4 June 1888 – 8 September 1983) was an Australian rules footballer who played for Carlton in the Victorian Football League (VFL).

A key member of Carlton's defence in a successful era, Jamieson played in 14 finals with Carlton. He was used initially as a wingman following his recruitment from Williamstown, from which he played the 1910 Grand Final, but found a home at full-back when he performed well in that position late in the 1911 season.

Jamieson, renowned for his skills when kicking in after a behind, was a VFL representative in 1913.[1] A full-back in the 1914 and 1915 Carlton premiership teams, Jamieson was a hero in the former when he punched the ball away from South Melbourne forward Tom Bollard in the goal square, preventing a last second goal which would have levelled the scores.[2]

He broke his arm in the 1916 Preliminary Final[3] and as a result missed the premiership decider that year. The defender had surgery but suffered complications which kept him out of action for four seasons. Despite being 33, Jamieson made a return to VFL football in 1921 and participated in his fourth and final Grand Final, a narrow loss to Richmond. At the start of the 1922 season Jamieson was appointed captain of Carlton, but due to injury had to resign partway through the year.[4][5]

After football, he was the proprietor of The Clare Castle Hotel in Rathdowne street, Carlton until 1936.[6]
