Richard "Dick" Morrissey (born 1895) was an Irish hurler who played as a centre-forward for the Galway senior team.
Morrissey made his first appearance for the team in the early 1920s and was a regular member of the starting fifteen for much of the rest of the decade. During that time he won one All-Ireland medal as Galway claimed their first championship in 1923.[1] Morrissey was an All-Ireland runner-up on four occasions.
At club level Morrissey was a four-time county club championship medalist with Craughwell.
