There is a significant possibility that Percy
Walters received a fifth captaincy in his final match against
Scotland, 5 April 1890, but as with all elements of doubt, we
have left this out of his captain's record. |

Various sources cannot decide who was captain for the
match against Wales, 12 March 1894, probably Charles Wreford-Brown
(2), but
possibly Cunliffe Gosling. Wreford-Brown was by far the oldest in an
inexperienced team, but a lot of sources decline to mention any captain. This match is therefore excluded from Wreford-Brown's captaincy record. |

It is feasible that Smith had as many as 15 captaincies - but in the match
against Ireland, 7 March 1896, the captaincy remains disputed between Smith,
George Raikes and Vaughan Lodge. The following match against Wales, 16 March
1896, the captaincy also remains unknown - although some have guessed at
Smith. These two matches are excluded from Smith's records. |
