Who was Roy Burnett?

Roy Burnett was a Wales international rugby union player who also played for the Barbarians.

Burnett made 373 appearances for Newport RFC. He captained the team in the 1952-53 season and also in 1950-51 in the absence of Ken Jones.

Burnett was unlucky only to win one cap for the Wales national rugby union team primarily because he had to compete against Cliff Morgan.
