Frank Ernest Pease (17 January 1864 – 27 June 1957) was an English international rugby union player.
Pease has been credited as being the first Hartlepool Rovers player to be capped for England, although at the time of his international call up he appears to have been attached to Darlington, only joining the Rovers in the weeks after.[1][2] He won his solitary cap as a forward against Ireland at Lansdowne Road in 1887.[3]
