Jason Jones-Hughes (born 13 September 1976) is a former professional rugby union player. He primarily played as a centre but could also play on the wing. Born in Sydney, Australia, he played internationally for Wales, making his debut at the 1999 Rugby World Cup after a protracted legal battle over his eligibility with the Australian Rugby Union. He earned three caps before poor form and injuries curtailed his international career. At club level, he played for the New South Wales Waratahs, Newport and Munster. He retired in 2004 after a year in Ireland, having suffered a lower back injury.
