Rowland David Phillips (born 28 July 1965 at St David's) is a former rugby union back row forward for Wales, where he won ten caps between 1987 and 1990. He also played rugby union for Neath RFC before moving to rugby league, playing Second-row for Warrington, and Workington Town.
Rowland Phillips played as an Interchange/Substitute, i.e. number 15, (replacing Prop Neil Harmon on 79-minutes) in Warrington's 12–2 victory over Bradford Northern in the 1990–91 Regal Trophy Final during the 1989–90 season at Headingley Rugby Stadium, Leeds on Saturday, 12 January 1991.
He also played for the Wales and Great Britain national rugby league teams.
In 2003 he took over as coach of Neath RFC from Lyn Jones. Due to his success at the club he is regarded as a local hero, leading Neath RFC to four Premiership titles in successive years and three cup final wins.
