Another legend gone. He and his teammates of the time made me a Wales fan, what a player he was.

very sad; I only got introduced to and started playing rugby in 1971-2 by which time John's short but brilliant career was coming to an end. So sadly I have only ever seen him on old you tube Lions clips, but another true great.

They used to say in the Glory Days that Gareth Edwards could find Barry John's safe hands in the dark at 30 yards. What a team that was!
