Darsie Anderson

Darsie Gordon Anderson (22 February 1868 – 26 December 1937) was a Scotland international rugby union player.

The team chosen has however given rise to a great deal of dissatisfaction, and it is asserted that the representatives who came from the western clubs - being the majority of the selecting Committee - have run in their own men regardless of merit.

Anderson was already playing for London Scottish when he was awarded his first international cap, in Scotland's closing encounter of the 1889 Home Nations Championship, away to Ireland.

Scotland won the match against the Irish, by a single drop goal, and Anderson and Orr became a regular partnership from that point.

Both men lined up for all three games of the 1890 Championship, which saw Scotland lose the title in their final match of the series to England.

The next season, Anderson was approached by William Percy Carpmael to join his newly formed invitational touring team, the Barbarians.
