Frank Boylen

According to This Reference, "F. Boylen played for England as an amateur"; however, references such as ESPNscrum show no indication of a Boylen playing rugby union for England. I initially thought he may have played for an England amateur rugby league team (not that I know of one), but according to extracts from the tour programme for the 1910 Great Britain Lions tour of Australia and New Zealand in Tom Mather's book, 'The Best in the Northern Union', Boylen "...Played for England against France, Wales, Ireland and Scotland..." and there were no Ireland and Scotland national rugby league teams until the 1990s, and no France national rugby league team until the 1930s, so I'm assuming the tour programme must be referring to rugby union, but I can find no information about it.
