About Steve Morris Rugby Union

  • Steve Morris (1 September 1896 – 29 May 1965) was a Welsh international rugby union flanker who played club rugby for Cross Keys.

  • It is reported that he once knocked out a Welsh heavyweight boxing champion in a sparring session.
  • At 6 foot and over 14 stone in weight, Morris was a hulking player, but he was still recognised as a cheerful and genial person.A coal miner by profession, Morris would work down the pit at Risca Colliery on a Saturday morning and then turn out to play for Cross Keys in the afternoon.
  • Morris spent his entire playing career at Cross Keys and later became the club's chairman.
  • On his death his ashes were scattered at Pandy Park, the team's home ground.
