Andy Town
Rugby player
Andrew Richard Town (born 13 August 1941) is an Australian former international rugby union player.
Born in the Sydney suburb of Mosman, Town had a year in the 1st XV at Sydney Grammar School and came through the Northern Suburbs junior grades to play for their senior side. He was an attacking fly-half.
Town had yet to represent his state when he was chosen by the Wallabies for the 1962 tour of New Zealand, having impressed during the trials. A twisted ankle prior to departure hampered him in New Zealand and he featured in only three tour matches, with Phil Hawthorne the Test fly-half. Due to work commitments, Town declared himself unavailable for the 1963 tour of South Africa, before gaining his only other Wallabies call up as a reserve in 1964. He was a member of the 1963 and 1964 Northern Suburbs first-grade premiership-winning teams.
