He is the first OC to represent for England since Will Collier (North 2009) played in two Test against Argentina in 2017. Before that the last OC was Jeff Clements (East 1951) who won the last of his three caps in 1959. Clements was also the last player to be called up when playing for an old boys side and the Twickenham programme for the Scotland match lists his club as Old Cranleighans.
Winger HP ‘Jake’ Jacobs (North 1922) was the first OC to be capped, turning out five times in all, and was an ever-present in Wavell Wakefield’s Grand Slam side in 1923-24. He scored a hat-trick of tries against France that season, the last Englishman to do that at Twickenham until 1980.
The hey-day for the OCs was in the 1930s when Alan Key, Maurice Bonaventura, Maurice McCanlis, Jeff Reynolds and Bob Carr all won caps, while Clive Wallis also turned out for Ireland.
