Rugby Union career

Amateur career

Jamieson's rugby career spanned the amateur and professional era. In 1995[1] before professionalism was introduced in Scotland - Scotland taking up professional rugby a year later for the 1996-97 season - he was playing for West of Scotland.[2]

When Jamieson signed for Glasgow Warriors the Prop was playing for West of Scotland.[3]

Whilst not involved with the professional provincial Glasgow side in the 1997-98 season, Jamieson played amateur rugby with Stirling County.[4][5][6]

In 2000, he was back at West of Scotland and played at the opening of West's new stand at Burnbrae.[7] However at the start of the 2000-2001 season, following West's demotion to Division 2,[8] he was one of 14 players that staged a walk-out of the club.[9] He then signed for Ayr RFC.[10]

By 2002, Jamieson was playing at Glasgow Hutchesons Aloysians.[11] but they also got relegated to Division 2 in 2005.[12]

In 2010, the prop was now playing at Falkirk RFC[13][14]

By 2013, Jamieson was playing for the Grangemouth Stags.[15] They played in the RBS Bowl Final against Oban Lorne that year.[16]

Professional and provincial career

In 1995 he was also being selected for the Under 21 Glasgow District side[1] They won the Championship in 1995-96.[17] By the end of 1995, Jamieson was on the bench for the full Glasgow District side.[18]

Jamieson played for Glasgow in the 1997-98 season. He was on the bench in the pre-season friendly match against the Australian Super Rugby side Brumbies. He came on for Mike Beckham at Tighthead Prop.

In 1999 he was signed by Le Creusot-Montchainin, now Club Olympique Creusot Bourgogne.[19]
