Northampton Saint Eric Coley played at No 8 for England twice, against France in 1929 and Wales in 1932, the fixture where he scored his only international try.
In between those England matches, Coley represented the Lions on their 1927 Tour to Argentina.
Coley, who died aged 53, was at one time honourary secretary to Northamptonshire CCC.
