Bernie Doneley

John Bernard Tyson Doneley (2 July 1909 – 22 June 1972) was an Australian international rugby union player.

Doneley was born in Samford, near Brisbane, and attended Nudgee College.

A back rower, Doneley played for Brisbane club GPS and in 1933 gained Wallabies selection for a tour of South Africa. He featured in eight fixtures during the tour, but none of the Springboks matches, and was often utilised as a goal–kicker, registering 32 points. In 1934, Doneley represented an Australian XV against the touring All Blacks and kicked two penalty goals in a losing cause. He also played against the All Blacks for Queensland on the same tour. In six years of first grade in Brisbane, Doneley amassed a competition record 770 points, only once failing to pass a century of points in a season.
