Arnott John 'Arnold' Traynor (1896-1976) was an Australian rugby league player who played in the 1920s and 1930s. He was a foundation player in the formative years of the St. George club and later captained St George's first grade premiership team.
Traynor was born in Bathurst, New South Wales to parents John and Rose Traynor in 1896. The family moved to Sydney when Arnold was a young boy and he learned to play rugby league in the St Peters, New South Wales area. He played his junior football in the St. George area for Bexley Waratahs and made his first grade premiership debut for the newly formed St. George DRLFC during the 1922 NSWRFL season. Married at 19 to Lillian Freebody.
