About Tom Arthur

  • Tom Arthur (10 January 1906 – 1 November 1986) was a Welsh international rugby union lock who played club rugby for Neath and was capped 18 times for Wales.
  • A tough second row forward with a strong physique, Arthur was often criticised for being over-vigorous.
  • Though his style of play was fairly typical for Welsh rugby at the time. Arthur was also a strong scummager and was adaptable in the open and was excellent in the line-out.
  • His signature move was his line-out 'flip', where he would grab the ball one handed and guide it to his waiting scrum-half.
