John Kenneth Lambie (born 27 March 1951) is an Australian former rugby union international.[1]

Lambie was born in Sydney and attended Port Hacking High School in the city's south.[2]

A fiery back-row forward, Lambie played his early rugby with Wollongong Teachers College and after performing well for New South Wales Country in 1974 was selected by the Wallabies for a home series against the All Blacks, where he featured in all three Tests.[3] His fourth and final cap came against Wales in Cardiff on the 1975–76 tour of Britain and Ireland.[2]
