Jack Morley
John "Jack" Cuthbert Morley (28 July 1909–7 March 1972) was a Welsh international rugby wing who played rugby union for Newport and rugby league with Wigan. He won five caps for Wales in rugby league and 14 caps for Wales in union and was the first player to tour Australia and New Zealand for both union and league British teams.
Morley, although mainly a wing player was often used as a utility back, and was known for his incredible pace and ability to change direction at speed. He was an intelligent but unorthodox player.〔
==Club career==
Morley first represented Wales as a schoolboy, and after leaving Newport Municipal Secondary School he joined Newport. In his first season with the club he scored 29 tries and by 1931 was captain of the senior Newport team, at the age of 21 he was the youngest player to be given the honour.〔Billot (1974), pg 136.〕 He captained Newport against the touring South Africans at Rodney Parade on 8 October 1931, and set up Ken Richards for a try after a typical zigzag run. The South Africans took note of Morley and attempted to ensure he wasn't given the space to run at them for the rest of the game.〔Billot (1974), pg 137.〕 In August 1932 he switched to rugby league, leaving Newport for Wigan.
