1876–77 Home Nations rugby union matches


The 1876–77 Home Nations rugby union matches are a series of international friendlies held between the England, Ireland and Scotland national rugby union teams.

The matches for this season were decided on goals scored. A goal was awarded for a successful conversion after a try, for a dropped goal or for a goal from mark. If a game was drawn, any unconverted tries were tallied to give a winner. If there was still no clear winner, the match was declared a draw.

England: LH Birkett (Clapham Rovers), L Stokes (Blackheath F.C.), A. N. Hornby (Preston), Reg Birkett (Clapham Rovers), WC Hutchinson (I.C.E. College), PLA Price (I.C.E. College), Edward Kewley (Liverpool) capt., FR Adams (Richmond), RH Fowler (Leeds), Murray Marshall (Blackheath F.C.), G Harrison (Hull), WH Hunt (Preston), Charles Touzel (Cambridge University), FH Lee (Oxford University), Edward Beadon Turner (St. George's Hospital)
