'WALES GREATEST EVER' - SIR GARETH EDWARDS' INTERNATIONAL WELSH RUGBY JERSEY MATCH WORN V IRELAND IN 1977 The jersey from the 25-9 victory in Cardiff Arms Park is in excellent condition with the collars, labels and No.9 on the back. It has been remarked within rugby memorabilia circles that Sir Gareth 'keeps his jerseys' and that if an opportunity arises to purchase one at auction then it would be a rare opportunity indeed. Provenance: letters to accompany the jersey outlining the ownership history of the jersey and confirming that Sir Gareth had verified its authenticity. Sir Gareth gave the jersey directly to Mr Ken Rees after the match, the jersey then passed on to the current owner during a charity auction in 2007. There is also an email from former Wales International Neil Boobyer stating that Sir Gareth had confirmed that the jersey was given to Mr Rees after the match. The 1970s are regarded as the glory years of Welsh rugby and there were many great and entertaining players. However it is Gareth Edwards that we think of first when recalling those fantastic amateur years. Sir Gareth Edwards CBE, the son of a coalminer was raised in the mining community of Gwaun-Cae-Gurwen near Neath, South Wales. It was in Pontardawe Technical School that his sporting prowess first came to the fore and where he excelled academically winning a scholarship to the elite Public School of Millfield in Somerset. Here he found a natural ability for many different sports - he played football for West Wales Youth and signed for Swansea City at the age of 16. He also showed promise in gymnastics, tennis and athletics but it was clear by the age of seventeen that rugby was goinpg to be his sport and scrum-half his position. Edwards gained his first cap against France at the age of 19 in 1967. He went on to win 53 caps over eleven years including 13 as captain. He was Wales' youngest ever captain at the age of 20. Sir Gareth was blessed with having two of the most celebrated and natural fly-halves on his shoulder in Barry John and Phil Bennett and it was said that both scrum-half and either of the respective fly-halves had an uncanny telepathic-like understanding on the pitch. All Sir Gareth's caps were won in succession and there was never an injury or a dip in form that kept him off the team-sheet. In all Sir Gareth scored twenty International tries for Wales. During this era, Wales were dominant in the Five Nations Championship - winning the title seven times and taking three Grand Slams. Edwards was named Player of the Year in Wales in 1969, he was awarded the prestigious BBC Wales Sports Personality of the year in 1974 and received and MBE in 1975. Edwards played for the British & Irish Lions ten times and was part of the legendary 1971 winning series in New Zealand and the 1974 unbeaten South Africa tour side. He spent his entire senior club career with Cardiff RUFC, scoring 69 tries in 195 matches. He was also the scorer of 'that try'. The legendary 1973 Barbarians effort v New Zealand, regarded as the 'best try ever scored'. In 2001 Sir Gareth Edwards was voted the 'Greatest Welsh Player of all time' by the Welsh Rugby Former International Players Association' and in a 2003 poll by Rugby World magazine, Edwards was declared the greatest player of all time. he was one of only fifteen former players inducted into the International Rugby Hall of Fame including team-mate Barry John and JPR Williams. He is also the subject of a plaque in the Rugby Pathway of Fame in Rugby, Warwickshire. Sir Gareth Edwards was knighted in 2015.
