Ivor Jones

Ivor Egwad Jones CBE (10 December 1901 – 16 November 1982)[2] was a Welsh rugby union player who played as a back-row forward, mainly at flanker, for Llanelli and won 19 caps for Wales, three of them as captain.

He won his first cap for Wales in 1924 against England and made his last appearance as captain against Scotland in 1930.

He was selected for the British and Irish Lions on their tour to Australia and New Zealand in 1930 and played in all five tests.

No Lion, though, made as great an impact on New Zealand as Ivor Jones, the Llanelli back-row forward.

Jones, who devoted a lifetime to the service of Welsh rugby in many guises, including chairman of selectors and president, was almost a one-man team.
