Lawrence 'Larry' Quinlivan Bulger (5 February 1870 – 17 March 1928)〔(Lawrence Bulger player profile ) ESPNScrum.com〕 was an Irish rugby union player, athlete and doctor. Bulger played international rugby for Ireland and in 1896 was chosen to represent a British Isles XV in their tour of South Africa. Bulger, who was nicknamed 'Fat Cupid',〔Godwin (1984), pg 48.〕 was described as an elusive runner and a devastating tackler, one of Ireland's outstanding players.〔 ==History== Lawrence Bulger was born in County Clare in 1870.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title="Ireland, Births and Baptisms, 1620–1881," Laurence Bulger, 1870 )〕 The Bulger family lived in Moore Street, Kilrush, where his father, Daniel Scanlan Bulger, was a woollen merchant and draper and ran a loan office.〔(Bassett's Directory 1880-1 ).〕 His mother Anne, née Delany, was from Limerick.〔(1901 census )〕 Later the Bulgers moved to Dublin, where Daniel was a stockbroker and city councillor. It was a sporting family. Lawrence and his brother Michael were educated at Blackrock College.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Students of Blackrock College who have been awarded International Caps )〕 Both of Lawrence's older brothers, Michael Joseph Bulger and Daniel Delany Bulger, were notable athletes: Michael also played rugby for Ireland and was one of the umpires whose aid disqualified Italian marathon runner Dorando Pietri at the 1908 Olympics; while Daniel was a five time British AAA athletics champion. Lawrence Bulger was an Irish 220-yard sprint champion, and through his connection with athletics was a representative at the Sorbonne in Paris when Pierre de Coubertin suggested the creation of a modern Olympic Games. Bulger was taken ill at Twickenham on Saint Patrick's Day, 1928 and died shortly after leaving the ground.〔The Times, Tuesday, 20 March 1928; p. 7; Issue 44846; col C.〕 He was 58.
