Neville Furlong (10 July 1968 – 26 September 2017) was an Irish rugby union international player who played as a winger.
Furlong initially played Gaelic football, and was selected at both minor and under- 21 levels. He attended University College Galway, where he developed an interest in hurling and played for the university team as well as for Connacht. He was an Irish Army captain.[1]
Furlong played for the Ireland team in 1992, winning 2 caps during the 1992 Ireland tour of New Zealand. He scored one try for Ireland in his second test match against New Zealand on 6 June 1992 which happened to be the last four point try scored in international rugby as the sport changed its scoring system later in 1992.[2][3]
Furlong died on 26 September 2017 following a long battle against cancer.[4][5]
