GRAHAM THOMAS

100 + APPEARANCES

Graham joined the Quins from Whitland in the 1959/60 season. Due to a lack of playing records prior to 1965, it is impossible to know the exact number of games Graham played for the Quins 1st XV. Graham (above) being presented with his 100 + Appearances Tie by Brian Jones, Club Com- mittee, in a function at the club on the 12th May 2018.
