Fred Scrine (25 March, 1877–1962) was a Welsh international rugby union scrum-half who played club rugby for Swansea. Scrine's style of play was as a fast spoiling playerSmith (1980), pg 115.] and was first capped for Wales in 1899 against England.

Swansea born, Scrine played most of his rugby for first class team Swansea Rugby Football Club. He was selected to play for Wales in the 1899 Home Nations Championship, and was selected alongside fellow Swansea players Billy Bancroft, Tom Parker and the 'Curly haired marmasets', David and Evan James. In the first international at Swansea's ground, St Helens, for four years Wales beat England with some ease. Scrine had a solid game and set upSmith (1980), pg 118.] Willie Llewellyn for his third try during the game. Scrine was back two months later in the same tournament, but this time against Scotland. The Scottish won 21-10, and Scrine was not recalled for the final match against Ireland. He would get his day against the Irish two years later when selected again for a game at St Helens. Wales won the game, but Scrine was not selected again, as a new wave of exciting players jostled for selection.

In 1905 Scrine was part of the Swansea team to face the Original All Blacks, and scored a try against the tourist, though the All Blacks won through 4-3.Smith (1980), pg 169.]

In 1906, Scrine's was part of a players' revolt at his club side Swansea, over the nature of professionalism, and managed to change the club rules.Smith (1980), pg 125.] Scrine would later clash with the WRU in 1907, when as part of an investigation into professionalism at Aberdare and Treorchy, Scrines was temporarily suspended for breaking union payment laws.Smith (1980), pg 180.]
