David Arthur John (11 May 1900 — 16 August 1929) was a Welsh international rugby union player.
John was born in Gowerton and educated at Gowerton Council School.
An inside-half, John was capped five times for Wales, with one cap in 1925 and a further three in 1928. He formed a successful halfback partnership with Dai John (no relation) at Llanelly RFC, where he spent five seasons, and also played some rugby for Bedford while working in England.
John died in a London hospital in 1929 at the age of 29, having been ill for over a year.
