Info
-
This jersey was worn by New Zealand prop Ron Williams in the 'All Blacks' tour match against Swansea at St Helen's on 21st October 1989. The tourists were one of the strongest ever to tour the UK and led at half-time by 21 - 3, with stand-off Frano Botica playing a great game. But they were outscored by Swansea in the second half and had to dig deep for a 37 -22 win. Kevin Hopkins, Paul Arnold and Ian Davies all crossed the try line for Swansea and Mark Wyatt kicked 2 penalties and 2 conversions. Future Wales coach Warren Gatland played in this match and scored a try for the tourists.
