Richard John Palmer Madge (19 December 1914 – 22 November 1996) was an English rugby union player.[1]
Born in Exeter, Madge served with the Royal Artillery during the war, before getting called up by England at the back end of his career. He was capped four times as England scrum-half in 1948, debuting against the Wallabies at Twickenham. A knee ligament injury, suffered nine minutes into a Five Nations match against Scotland, ended his run in the side and ruled him out for the remainder of the season.[2]
Madge, a surveyor by profession, was managing director of a building firm.[3]
