William Alexander Wright (15 December 1905 – 19 September 1971)[1][2] was a New Zealand rugby union player who represented the All Blacks in 1926.
Wright was educated at Sacred Heart College, where he was a member of the 1st XV between 1922 and 1923.
[3] Wright had played just one first-class game before making his only All Black match.
Wright was named as a reserve for Auckland until an injury to All Black Bill Dalley just before halftime.
With no other fit players to use at the halfback position, Wright changed strips and played the second-half of the match for the All Blacks.
