Abstract
-
During the ‘Lions’ 1959 tour of Australasia, Swansea and Wales back-row John Faull played 19 matches, 3 in Australia and 16 in New Zealand, making one test appearance in Australia and 3 against the All Blacks. He later presented this jersey to Swansea Rugby Club. John played for Swansea from 1953 to 1963, captaining the first XV in 1962-63 and kicking two huge penalties to help them to a 6 - 6 draw with the All Blacks at St Helens in 1953.
