List of uncapped Great Britain national rugby league team players

Since their first game in 1908, over 700 players have represented Great Britain in a rugby league senior international match. An additional 77 players have played at least one game for Great Britain, but have never been awarded a cap by the team. The majority of this number were players selected for tours of the Southern Hemisphere, but only made non-Test appearances against provincial teams.

Nearly half of Great Britain's uncapped players have represented other teams at international level, mostly England and Wales.
