Scott Logan (born 22 June 1976) is a former Scotland international rugby league footballer who last played as a prop for the Canberra Raiders in the NRL. He has been described as, "one of the most durable props of the modern era."[2]

Logan coached the Illawarra Cutters in the NSW Cup competition.

Background[edit]

Logan was born in Wollongong, New South Wales, Australia.

Playing career[edit]

Logan started his football career at Brisbane Easts junior club, before making his first-team début 1996 for the Sydney City Roosters against North Queensland. He played with the Sydney Roosters (Heritage № 952) for six years.

In 2000, Logan made his international début by representing Scotland in the World Cup. He stayed at the Sydney Roosters until 2001 when he signed a contract with Super League side Hull F.C. (Heritage № 994). He spent three years at Hull F.C. but he suffered a series of injuries one being a badly broken ankle which took him almost a year to recover from.

In 2004, he returned to Australia to play for the NRL side the South Sydney Rabbitohs for two years before agreeing a two-year deal with the Super League side the Wigan Warriors.[3]

Logan played just one season with the Wigan Warriors in 2006 as he was one of a number of players released by Wigan at the end of the 2006 season; he signed a contract with Canberra Raiders for 2007. Following a very strong two seasons with the Raiders, being named the club's player of the year in 2007, Logan earned a contract extension, which will take to the end of 2009.

Logan was named in the Scotland training squad for the 2008 Rugby League World Cup,[4] and went on to be named in the Scotland squad for the 2008 Rugby League World Cup. He was the only player remaining from the 2000 World Cup.[5]
