Jeff Whitefoot represented the British & Irish Lions in 1986 when they took on a Rest of the World XV in Cardiff.

The game was set up to commemorate the centenary of the International Rugby Football Board (IRFB), which would shortly afterwards become the IRB – the International Rugby Board.

The Lions, managed by Clive Rowlands and coached by Mick Doyle, couldn’t overcome the opposition in wet conditions however, suffering a 15-7 defeat.

Despite this being Whitefoot’s sole Lions appearance, the prop did rack up 19 caps for Wales as well as appearing more than 300 times for Cardiff.
