Evan "Ted" Morgan Jessep (11 October 1904 – 10 January 1983) was a rugby union player who has the distinction of being the first person to play in test matches for both New Zealand and Australia. Born in Sydney, Jessep moved to New Zealand with his family when he was three years old. A hooker and prop, Jessep represented Wellington at a provincial level, and was a member of the New Zealand national side, the All Blacks, in 1931 and 1932. In all he played eight matches for the All Blacks including two internationals, both against Australia. Jessep subsequently returned to Australia, where he lived for the rest of his life. He represented Victoria from 1933 to 1938, when an ankle injury forced his retirement. He played two test matches as vice-captain for the Wallabies in 1934, both against New Zealand. He later coached the Eastern Suburbs club for 21 seasons in the period 1940 to 1968, winning four Sydney premierships in the process.
