"'''''Don Vines.''' Playing as [[Rugby union positions#Fly-half|off-half]] for the Welsh Association of Boys' Clubs, then at [[Rugby union positions#Centre|centre]] for Welsh Youth against Welsh Secondary Schools, Don started his [[Rugby league|football]] career with two caps. That was in 1950. There followed three years in the Army and after that a period with the [[Newbridge RFC|Newbridge R.U.]] club, still at [[Rugby union positions#Centre|centre threequarter]]. A brief break and then resumption with [[Newbridge RFC|Newbridge]], this time as a [[Rugby union positions#Forwards|forward]], but after three more months Don decided to change his code, and signed for [[Oldham R.L.F.C.|Oldham Rugby League Club]] in 1956. Two years later came another move, this time, we are glad to say, to [[Wakefield Trinity|Trinity]]. Whilst with us he has gained international honours for [[Wales national rugby league team|Wales]] v. [[France national rugby league team|France]], twice for [[Great Britain national rugby league team|Great Britain]] v. France, and again, during the recent tour of the [[Australia national rugby league team|Australians]], for [[Great Britain national rugby league team|Great Britain]] v. [[Australia national rugby league team|Australia]]. [[Wakefield Trinity|Trinity]] followers are glad to know that Don is happily settled in [[Wakefield]]. We shall look forward to many more grand displays such as he has given since coming to [[Belle Vue (Wakefield)|Belle Vue]].''"<ref>Lindley, John (20 February 1960).
