That’s sad news - I understand that he was one helluva player.Former Wales and British & Irish Lions international Lewis Jones has died at the age of 92 after a brief illness.
Born in Gorseinon in 1931, Jones played club rugby for Neath before winning his first Wales cap against England as a teenager in 1950
The dual-code star won 10 caps for his country and three for the Lions in rugby union, before switching codes and joining Leeds. Only Kevin Sinfield has scored more points for the club, than Lewis Jones and he also represented Great Britain 15 times. RIP Lewis![]()
