Clive Davis

Clive Enoch Davis (born September 17, 1949) is a former Welsh international rugby union player. Davis played his entire career at Newbridge RFC, gaining county, invitational, and international honors while doing so. Davis made his debut for Newbridge on 16 November 1968 against Cheltenham. He was a mainstay in the club throughout the decade, captaining them for three seasons. It wasn't until the 1977–78 season that Davis made his break onto the international scene. The season was full of honors. He became Newbridge's first ‘'B'’ international, playing for Wales B against France in Nantes. He was then selected for the annual Barbarians Easter tour. Davis went on to represent the famous invitational club on eight occasions throughout his career, scoring two tries. The 1978 season ended with Davis being selected for the 1978 Wales rugby union tour of Australia. Davis represented the Welsh team in five games during the tour. He was to win his long overdue cap during the final game of the tour, the 2nd test match played at the Sydney Cricket Ground. The Welsh back row had a different look about it, J. P. R. Williams was on one flank with Stuart Lane, while on the other, Davis took on the No. 8 responsibilities. The match was extensively physical with several brawls breaking out on the field. Wales prop Graham Price broke his jaw. Australia ended up winning the game by 19 points to 17.
