James Barnett Allison
James Barnett Allison (28 June 1880 – 31 March 1907) was an Irish rugby union international who played twelve Test matches for the Irish national team between 1899 and 1903. Born in Monaghan in what is now the Republic of Ireland, he was a student of Campbell College, Queen's University Belfast, and the University of Edinburgh, and played as a centre. Regarded as one of the most agile centres of his generation, match reports from the period show he gained a reputation for rigorous tackling and accurate kicking, scoring a drop goal for Ireland against England at the Athletic Ground, Richmond in 1900.
==School and club career==
Educated at Campbell College, Belfast, Allison was a member of the 1st XV from 1896 to 1899, and captain in the 1897–98 season. A school report for the 1896 season described him as "a first-rate kicker and tackler, with fair pace; has been invaluable to our team all through the season". 〔Quoted Keith Haines, "James Barnett Allison", Campbell College, Belfast.〕 During the year of his captaincy, Campbell defeated the Ulster XV in December 1897 by 36-0, and won the Ulster Schools' Cup on 17 March 1898.〔Keith Haines, Campbell College, Tempus Publishing, 2004, p. 109.〕 Selected as a schoolboy international in 1899,〔J.R. Jones, "Schoolboy Internationals", Encyclopedia of Rugby Football, 1960, p. 56.〕 the school "showed its gratification by meeting him at the College gates, and he was carried shoulder high to the main entrance amid a scene of wild excitement and enthusiasm".〔Quoted in Keith Haines, ''Neither Rogues Nor Fools: A History of Campbell College and Campbellians'', 1993, p. 298.〕 The speed and agility of his play is suggested by an ''Irish Times'' report on an Ulster inter-provincial match: "Allison... dodged in and out through the Munster backs till at the crucial moment he served Barr".〔''Irish Times'', 23 January 1899, p. 3.〕 He played centre for Queen's College (now Queen's University Belfast) during the 1900–01 season, when Queen's were undefeated and won all 23 matches, and for the Edinburgh University from 1901 to 1903, where he studied medicine. (The 1901 Edinburgh side won the Scottish championship and fielded no less than eight Scottish internationals that year.) Allison played also played cricket at Campbell, in the 1st XI from 1896 to 1899, and set a school record during the 1898 season by taking 44 wickets for 143 runs. In a victory for Campbell against Ulster CC, Allison scored 65 not out, and was awarded a bat for his "over 50" score.〔"Cricket", ''Irish Times'', 25 May 1897, p.3〕
