LW 54: Michael Dawes

Our guest this week is Michael Dawes.  Michael is one third of the London Welsh Dawes dynasty, with his Dad, John Dawes playing, captaining and Coaching the London Welsh sides through the 60's to 90's; and then his son, Rhodri playing for the club across the last three seasons. Michael talks about his days playing for the Minis and Youth throughout the 80's and 90's and recollects some of the great tours they went on.  He made his 1st XV debut in 1990 and played for the club for over 10 years, with many ups and down for him and the club throughout this period.  Michael talks quite candidly about his dad's recent passing and the amount of tributes from around the word the family received.
