From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia Cliff Morgan (born 7 April 1930 at Trebanog, Rhondda) is a former Welsh rugby union player who played for Cardiff RFC and earned 29 caps for Wales between 1951 and 1958.
Morgan was from a mining family and joined Cardiff straight from school in 1949, playing at fly-half. He also played in Ireland for Bective Rangers in the 1955 season, with the club being dubbed the "Morgan Rangers" as a result. He won his first cap for Wales against Ireland in 1951, played in the Grand Slam winning side of 1952 and was made captain of the Welsh team in 1956. He toured South Africa with the British and Irish Lions in 1955 and captained the team in the third test at Pretoria, which the Lions won.
Following his retirement he became a noted broadcaster and commentator on rugby.
