WALES, LIONS & LLANELLI LEGEND ~ J.J. WILLIAMS HAS DIED AGED 72

J.J. WILLIAMS ~ "THE WELSH WHIPPET" was a Rugby Union Winger who scored 12 tries in 30 Tests as Wales won four Five Nations titles, including two Grand Slams, during the 1970s.

Earning his place in The Lions, he excelled on their unbeaten tour of South Africa in 1974, scoring two tries in each of the second and third Tests.

Williams was a talented track athlete, representing Wales in the Commonwealth Games in Edinburgh in 1970 and becoming Welsh sprint champion in 1971.


Wales players will wear black armbands for Saturday's Six Nations match against Scotland.

Just to remind you....

ENGLAND V BARBARIANS IS CANCELLED!

Naughty Barbarians (including a former England Captain Chris Robshaw) had been continually breaking the Covid Bubble Protocol which has enabled our sports to restart.

So the game that was scheduled for this afternoon is OFF :-(
