About Arthur Fagan
Arthur Fagan was a rugby union player.
Arthur Robert St Leger Fagan (24 November 1862 – 15 March 1930) was an English international rugby union player.
Fagan, the son of a Calcutta judge, was active in rugby while studying medicine in London, where he turned out for Richmond, Guy's Hospital and United Hospitals. He also played some rugby in Devon for Tiverton.
Mainly a fullback, Fagan was used out of position as a three-quarter in his sole England appearance, against Ireland at Lansdowne Road in 1887. His impact was limited as a result.
Fagan's brother George was capped for Ireland.
