Eugène Chaud (2 March 1906 – 14 June 1984) was a French international rugby footballer.
Rugby career
A dual-code international, Chaud started out in rugby union with RC Toulon and was a member of their 1931 Brennus Shield–winning team. His official international appearances were limited to matches against Germany, as France were barred from the Five Nations at this time. He switched to rugby league at the end of 1935 to join hometown club RC Roanne XIII and was capped for France as a fullback.[1][2]
Chaud also competed at the French Athletics Championships in sprinting.[3]
