George Hunter (born 20 November 1991 in Stevenage) is a Scottish rugby union player who plays for Glasgow Warriors at the Tighthead Prop position.

Having grown up in Aberdeen, Hunter is eligible for Scotland. He has represented Scotland at Under 17, Under 18 and Under 20 level. He captained the Under 20 side throughout much of 2011.

Hunter was part of the Elite Development Programme attached to Glasgow Warriors. He also represented Aberdeen Wanderers and Glasgow Hawks and Ayr RFC.

He broke into the full Warriors squad in 2012. He played against the Ospreys and Leinster in the Pro12, and away to Castres Olympique in December 2012 in his European Champions Cup debut.

He joined London Scottish on loan for a short period at the end of the 2013-14 season before rejoining the Warriors and continuing to play for Ayr RFC.

On 17 July 2015 it was announced that Hunter had secured a short term professional contract with Glasgow Warriors to provide depth and competition for places during the 2015 World Cup when the Warriors will lose a host of their top stars on Scotland duty. [1]
