Tom English (born 8 March 1991) is an Australian rugby union footballer who plays as a centre or wing for the Melbourne Rebels.

English is a former Australia Sevens representative.[1] In 2011, he was named at inside centre for Sydney University in the final of the Shute Shield. The side was to be captained by Rebels flanker Tim Davidson.[2]

In late 2012 English joined the Melbourne Rebels Extended Playing Squad.[3] He stayed with the Rebels into 2013[4] and was named on the bench to play the Western Force in Round 1[5] and ACT Brumbies for Round 2[6] but didn't play.[7] He made his Super Rugby debut when he replaced inside centre Rory Sidey against the Reds in Round 4.[8] Seven weeks later he started on the right wing[3][9] and played 58 minutes before being replaced by Lachlan Mitchell.[10]

In 2014, English faced competition for a place in the Rebels centres from Mitch Inman and New Zealand import Tamati Ellison.[11]

In May 2014 English was invited to train with the Wallaby squad preparing for series against France.

He is also the older brother of Samuel English AKA The Juggernaut who plays 1st Grade for Sydney University and is part of the Waratahs Extended Playing Squad.
