About Alex Angus

  • Alexander "Alex" William Angus (11 November 1889 – 23 March 1947) was a Scottish international rugby union and cricket player.He was capped eighteen for the Scotland rugby union team between 1909 and 1920.
  • He played club rugby for Watsonians.Richard Bath mentions him as one of the three Scottish players "who've gone the longest without (between) scoring a try for Scotland" along with Alan Tait and Gary Armstrong.
  • This is partly because World War I occurred in the middle of his international career, a period in which all international rugby ceased.
  • He was first capped in 1909, scoring two tries in fourteen matches before the Great War.
  • His next four caps came in 1920, and he scored against Ireland on 28 February 1920 – just over nine years since his previous try.
  • Scotland won that match 19–0.He also played for the Scotland national cricket team.
