Bevan John Wilson (20 September 1927 — 11 May 2012) was an Australian rugby union international.
Born in Sydney, Wilson was educated at North Sydney Technical High School, after which he briefly worked designing ordnance survey maps. He played his rugby for Gordon, linking up with his former schoolmate Trevor Allan.
Wilson, a loosehead prop, played in both Test matches on the 1949 tour of New Zealand, which the Wallabies won 2–0 to claim an away Bledisloe Cup series for the first time.
Accepting an offer from an English scout, Wilson left Australia in 1950 to play rugby league for Workington Town as a second-rower. He was a member of Workington Town's 1951–52 Challenge Cup final win over the Featherstone Rovers.
Wilson, who returned home in the mid-1950s, was later the principal of Marrickville Public School. He coached Gordon to two Shute Shield grand finals during the late 1960s.
