John Christopher M. Moroney (28 October 1945 — 12 December 2009) was an Irish rugby union international.[1]
Moroney was born in the village of Clogheen in County Tipperary. He attended De La Salle College Waterford and Rockwell College, winning a Munster Schools Senior Cup title with the latter in 1964.[2]
Mainly playing as an out-half or winger, Moroney spent his career with Garryowen, University College Dublin, London Irish and Munster, while gaining six Ireland caps in 1968 and 1969. He set a new Ireland individual points scoring record in the 1969 Five Nations opener against France at Lansdowne Road, with 14 points through a try, conversion and three penalties. As a Garryowen player, he was a member of three Munster Senior Cup winning sides, before his career was ended by a leg injury while playing for the club in the 1975 Munster Senior League final.[3]
