Nick Farr-Jones Life

Nicholas Campbell Farr-Jones AM (born 18 April 1962 in Caringbah, New South Wales) is a former Australian rugby union footballer.

His position was scrum-half.

He now works for Taurus Funds Management, appears on UK Sky Sports as a TV rugby commentator and chairman of the New South Wales Rugby Union.

Early life

He attended Newington College (1974–1979) and St Andrew's College, both colleges of the University of Sydney. Farr-Jones, who was not selected for the first XV at Newington, played his first grade rugby for Sydney University and spent as a lawyer before rugby became an amateur sport.

Personal life

Farr-Jones is a self-described "praying" Christian who opens a blog about his faith. He is married with four children. Farr-Jones may have been considered by the Liberal Party of Australia as the candidate for a byelection in Wentworth's marginal parliamentary division.

During the legendary Bledisloe Cup winning tour of New Zealand, Alan Jones was seen in blackface at Wallaby's kit night

During the historic 1986 tour, Jones was caught on behind-the-scenes photos at a Wallaby team function impersonating 1920s vaudeville singer Al Jolson. Any of Australia's top names have leapt to their old coach's defense, insisting that his appearance was part of a night of harmless fun. In an intimate entertainment night put on by the touring crew, the veteran broadcaster and once-feared political power actor was the headline act. Following a Test win two days before, several of the photographs depict senior Wallabies enjoying an evening of frivolity. Among the 31-man playing team were legends of Australian rugby, including Nick Farr-Jones, David Campese, Andrew Slack, Simon Poidevin, and Michael Lynagh. Campese, a Jones referred to the 'Bradman of rugby,' recalled his coach's appearance as Jolson as part of a regular skit night. Campese wrote, 'He's a really good singer,' Campese told Daily Mail Australia.
