They must either internationals prior to coming or later. I am only interested in Interested in International players, not all South African or Australians! Over to you. Thank you. |

Don’t know if this fits your criteria of South African Internationals but Zimbabwean international fly-half David Walters captained Hull RFC in the 1992/93 season.

Peter Jorgensen played for London Welsh in National Five South - he returned to Australia after about six months and was capped within the year, and came back to the UK to play for Northampton later in his career.
