Daniel Phillip Griffiths (born 1 February 1979) in Carmarthen, Wales is a rugby union player for Bridgend Ravens. He previously played for Whitland RFC and Aviron Bayonnais. He then played over 150 games for Newport RFC and became the highest all time points scorer for the club in February 2008 at Maesteg. In doing so, he beat Paul Turner's record which had stood since 1992.[1] He has also appeared twice for the Newport Gwent Dragons, coming on as a replacement against Munster and the Ospreys in 2005. In June 2010 he joined Bridgend Ravens,[2] later taking up a coaching role, and in November 2012, he was appointed Elite Youth Performance Manager at the Ospreys.[3]
