Bruce Alan Neale (15 September 1923 – 28 January 1996) was an English international rugby union player.[1]
Neale was born in Chelsea and educated at Emanuel School.[2]
A Rosslyn Park player, Neale was a late addition to the final England trial prior to the 1951 Five Nations and won a place in the tournament opener against Wales. He didn't get to play Wales after breaking his nose in an Army match, but featured in the remaining three fixtures, utilised as a lock.[3]
