Anthony Gordon Steel (31 July 1941 – 4 May 2018) was a New Zealand rugby union player, politician and educator.
He was a part of the All Blacks 1967 New Zealand rugby union tour of Britain, France and Canada.
After retiring from sport due to injury, he took up teaching, first at the Brisbane Grammar School and then back in New Zealand.
In the 1990 election, he stood for Parliament as a candidate for the National Party, defeating Labour's Bill Dillon in the Hamilton East electorate.
Testament to Steel's popularity in the city of Hamilton is the fact that he lost what has traditionally been regarded as a bellwether seat by a mere 600 votes, in an election where the National Party was almost destroyed by its lowest polling result in recent history.
