Lindsay Barbour Lambie (30 May 1910 — September 1996) was a Scottish international rugby union player.
Lambie was born in Eastwood, Lanarkshire, and played his rugby with Glasgow HSFP.[1]
A stocky forward, Lambie made his debut for Scotland in 1934 as a hooker, but for his remaining appearances was used as a wing-forward. He gained seven caps in his two years playing international rugby and scored a try to help Scotland win the 1935 Calcutta Cup.[2] His last match was against the All Blacks at Murrayfield, before he retired at age 25.[3]
Lambie emigrated to Australia in the early 1950s.[3]
