[4] Never seen as an explosive or attacking back, which would later typify Welsh play, he was seen as a player of calm nerves who could stay cool under pressure.

[5] Jones made his début against Ireland in 1896 after the departure of Swansea backs Evan and David James;[6] in an aggressive match played on a muddy pitch which Wales lost.

[4] Between Jones moving to London for a period and the year lost by Wales during the 'Gould Affair', he would not gain another cap until 1899.

For the next match Lloyd was dropped when the Welsh selectors switched to the Swansea pairing of Owen and Jones, the 'Dancing Dickies'.

Lloyd was recalled during the 1901/02 season, mainly due to his club work with Welsh star player Gwyn Nicholls.
