Scott Quinnell (born 20 August 1972) is a Welsh former dual-code rugby union and rugby league player who played in the 1990s and 2000s. He was a number 8 for Wales, Llanelli RFC, Llanelli Scarlets, Richmond and the British & Irish Lions in rugby union. He won 52 caps for Wales (seven as captain) and three for the Lions, and scored 11 international tries for Wales and one for the Lions.[2][3][4]
In 1994 he changed rugby football codes from rugby union to rugby league when he transferred from Llanelli RFC to Wigan, and played two seasons, winning a league championship and two caps for Wales.[5]
