Newport RFC played their first game in 1876, and quickly established themselves as one of the leading clubs in the country. They played a dominant role in Welsh and British rugby, providing the national team with some of its greatest stars. The βBlack and Ambersβ are one of a select group of teams in world rugby to have beaten the All Blacks, Wallabies and the Springboks. Formed in 2003 as a result of the regionalisation of Welsh rugby, Newport Gwent Dragons started life with a third place finish in the 2003/04 Celtic League. Some notable club highlights include reaching the semi-finals of the European Challenge Cup in 2007 and 2015, and reaching the final of the Anglo-Welsh Cup in 2011. Like Newport RFC, they play at Rodney Parade, one of Welsh Rugbyβs spiritual homes. Peter Jones documents Newportβs most iconic players and managers from the teamβs early beginnings to the present day. With unprecedented access to the clubβs archives, Newport Rugby Greats provides a history of some of the clubβs heroes, complete with facts and figures, along with their most memorable games.
