Peter Jackson (rugby union)

Peter Jackson (22 September 1930, in Birmingham – 22 March 2004(2004-03-22) (aged 73), in Solihull) was an England rugby union international who played on the wing for Coventry and Warwickshire for many years.

He was devastating when he had the ball to hand and could sidestep or outpace a defender with equal facility.

He scored three tries in the 1957 Five Nations Championship and helped England to their first Grand Slam since the Twenties.

In 1958 against Australia at Twickenham, he demonstrated his mastery of the feint to score a dazzling match-winning try.

He then amazed the All Blacks on the 1959 Lions tour, scoring 16 tries in 14 games, including four test matches.
