John Alexander Davidson (6 August 1932 — 22 January 2016) was a Scottish international rugby union player.
Davidson was born in the harbourside village of Avoch on the Black Isle and after moving to St Monans, Fife, attended Waid Academy.[1] He played his early rugby in England and was with London Scottish when he was first capped.[2]
After representing North of Scotland against the 1957-58 Wallabies, Davidson made his Scotland debut as a number eight in their final 1959 Five Nations fixture, a Calcutta Cup match against England at Twickenham. He gained a further two caps in the 1960 Five Nations, returning for a rare win at Lansdowne Road, Scotland's first for 27 years, before making another Calcutta Cup appearance. His lack of further caps may have come down to being made a scapegoat for the loss to England, having fumbled a certain try at a crucial time. Through his work as an engineer, Davidson spent some time working in France, where he played rugby for several clubs including Racing Club de France.[3]
