When he stopped playing he got a job as a schools coach in South Wales
Lovely guy to chat to , even in his later years at Swansea he had so much time on the ball and never panicked . I told him that and he put out his hand and said thank you son
And with that he was back on the field coaching the kids
Imagine that ......having incredible natural talent , getting paid for playing the game then teaching kids to do the same , giving them confidence and mentoring them
Can't fault it
I played against Tommy, he likes a bit of banter on the pitch.

I looked behind each time, but I really wasn't pissed off about it, but you just automatically look, right?
Anyway, one of them breaks away from their group and apologises to me - it was Jonathan Davies.
He had that trademark smile on his face and was such a gentleman.
I got to know him quite well when BT hosted question and answer sessions at Stadium House for invited guests during the 1999 Rugby World Cup. As I was a BT Facilities Manager in Stadium House at the time, I got involved in the preparation for these events and Jonathan Davies was our main contact. As you said, he was a gentleman and very down to earth. Loved talking about his golf but the free beer on offer was definitely not to his liking.
