Timothy Joseph Dalton (2 September 1940 – 7 February 2014) was an English rugby union international. [1]

Dalton, a Warwick School product, played as a fly-half and was a regular in the Coventry team through the 1960s, featuring in 249 games. [2] He gained an England cap against Scotland at Twickenham in 1969, when he substituted an injured Keith Fielding on the right wing after 30 minutes. [3] His move to rival club the Rugby Lions later that year was controversial, causing Coventry to cancel future fixtures between the sides. [4] He made 48 County Championship appearances with Warwickshire and after emigrating to New Zealand in the 1970s played provincial rugby for Bay of Plenty. [5]
