Edward Croker

Edward William Dunlo Croker (14 September 1849 — 10 May 1893) was an Irish international rugby union player.

Born in Dublin, Croker was the great-grandson of William Trench, 1st Earl of Clancarty, and grandson of Henry Monck, 1st Earl of Rathdowne.

He gained an Ireland cap in 1878, as a forward against England at Lansdowne Road.

While in Chicago in 1893 to attend the World's Fair, Croker suffered fatal injuries when he fell from a horse.
