Ernest Dyer Galbraith Hammett (15 October 1891 – 23 June 1947) was an English international rugby union player.[1]
Hammett was born in Radstock, Somerset, but grew up in Newport, Wales, attending Newport High School.[2] He played association football for Treharris and Newport County, while also gaining a cap for Welsh Amateurs in a 1912 international against England. His rugby was predominantly played in Wales, which included three seasons with Newport RFC.[3]
From 1920 to 1922, Hammett was capped eight times for England as a centre three-quarter. His debut match was against Wales, which had also called him up, unaware that he had committed to England.[4]
Hammett toured Argentina with the British Lions in 1927 and played three of the four matches against the Pumas, contributing 41-points through a try, drop goal, two penalties and 14 conversions.[5]
