#2. JPR Williams (Wales)
- Major teams British and Irish Lions, World XV, Wales, Wales XV
- Position Fullback
- Lions caps 8
- Tours 1971 (New Zealand), 1974 (South Africa)
He went on only two Lions tours, in 1971 and 1974, and the mark he left on both is still remembered fondly to this day. A
s a result he has one of the most impressive Test records with the Lions of any player, winning five Tests, drawing two and losing just once.
To come away as a winner from two different series is a remarkable feat.
GATLAND SAID: “He was incredibly tough, even though he was a fullback he probably could have played in the forwards. He definitely put his body on the line.”
