Gwyn Jones is a former Wales international rugby union player. Jones suffered a spinal injury playing in his normal position of open-side flanker for his club Cardiff against Swansea in December 1997. At the time he was 25 years old, captain of Wales and having attained 13 caps was expected to have a long and distinguished playing career.

Jones could never play again after the injury but after an operation and extensive rehabilitation including learning to walk again he recovered sufficiently to develop a career as a rugby critic on television and amazingly to return to his career as an A&E Doctor in Cardiff.
