No international rugby league appearances are mentioned in the article. Was he in fact a DCI ? - Sticks 66 12:43, 2 August 2008 (UTC)
The fact that an ex-international, who 2 years earlier had beaten New Zealand, the 'greatest' team the world had ever seen, who lived in Aberdare where the game is taking place, who now plays league rugby is not in the squad is unlikely. We need to find the team line up for the 1908 match between Wales and the All Golds. FruitMonkey ( talk) 13:33, 2 August 2008 (UTC)
The David 'Tarw' Jones article mentions Treherbert RLFC, but they are not shown in the infobox, and the Treherbert RLFC article doesn't mention David 'Tarw' Jones. Did he actually play for them? Best Regards. DynamoDegsy ( talk) 12:03, 12 March 2012 (UTC)
I have amended your page to reflect the fact that Dai Jones was not born in Aberaman but in Tynewydd which is next to/part of Treherbert. He was my fathers uncle. I think he went to play for Aberdare (then called Aberaman RFC I believe) when he was posted there on joining the police. Scrabbling2002 ( talk) 14:55, 29 October 2013 (UTC)
There is no confusion on my part on this subject. I do not know what references you have used but this is part of my family history. My great grandmother (his mother) lived in Tynewydd with my grandmother and my father until she died. To save you the effort I can supply a copy of the 1901 census which clearly states his place of birth as Treherbert. I also have a copy of his obituary/funeral which also states that he was born in Tynewydd, Treherbert. I am new to making contribution on this site and if I had known how to contact you directly I would have done so because I have other info which might be of interest. I am pleased you have gone to the trouble of making this entry because I think he deserves to be remembered and I thank you for your efforts. I just want it to be correct and I think my amendment sheds a different light on his return to playing for Treherbert - his home town. Scrabbling2002 ( talk) 23:41, 29 October 2013 (UTC)
