Edward Verdun McHugh (1916–1982) was an Australian rugby league player who played in 1940s.

McHugh came to St. George from the Carlton Athletics JRLFC[1] and was graded in 1942. He played three seasons with St. George between 1942 and 1944. McHugh played centre in the 1942 Grand Final for St George.[1] War duties[2] and a knee injury curtailed his rugby league career during this time, and he announced his retirement in 1945.[3][4]
