Alex Samuel (born 27 December 2002) is a Scottish rugby union player who plays for Glasgow Warriors at the Lock position.[1]
Rugby Union career
Amateur career
Samuel went to St Leonards School in St. Andrews, and then went on to Madras College.[2] He then played for Madras College FP.[3]
Professional career
He moved to Glasgow Warriors in 2020, initially with the Scottish Rugby Academy, before graduating from the academy with a permanent deal with the Glasgow club. Then Warriors' Head Coach Danny Wilson marked out Samuel as one to watch in a supporters event in 2020.[4]
While at the academy he was aligned to Stirling Wolves in the Super 6.[2][5]
Samuel played for the Ayrshire Bulls under Peter Horne in the Super 6 in the Fosroc Super Sprint championship.[6]
He made his debut for Glasgow Warriors against the Ayrshire Bulls on 2 September 2022 at Inverness as a replacement.[7]
He then made his competitive debut for the Warriors against Benetton Rugby on 28 October 2022 in the United Rugby Championship in a 6 try win.[8] He became only the fifth teenager to make his debut playing in the second row for the club. He became Glasgow Warrior No. 346.[9]
Because of his Warriors debut he could not play in the Super 6 final between Ayrshire Bulls and Watsonians the following day. However Samuel said of his Warriors start: "It was a bit of a dream come true. Usually I’m on the other side of the fence as a fan, have been for about the last 10 years. It’s pretty cool."[10]
He followed that up with a start against Leinster Rugby at the RDS Arena on 26 November 2022 in the following round match.[11]
International career
Samuel captained the Scotland U20 side in 2021.[3][5][12]
He has been invited to train with the senior Scotland squad for the 2021 Six Nations Championship, but has yet to receive a full senior cap.[4]
