EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the historic encounter between the England team and the mighty All Blacks at Twickenham in 1979. The intensity and anticipation of this Rugby Union clash are palpable as both teams gather on the hallowed grounds before kick-off. Standing tall at the back, a formidable line-up of English legends including Clive Woodward, Dusty Hare, and Tony Neary exude determination and focus. Their eyes fixed on victory, they form an impenetrable wall ready to face their fierce opponents head-on. In contrast, the front row showcases a mix of youthful energy and seasoned experience. Mike Slemen, Tony Bond, Bill Beaumont stand shoulder to shoulder with Les Cusworth and John Carleton - all warriors who would leave no stone unturned in their quest for triumph. The All Blacks loom large in this image; however, it is important to note that "all blacks" refers solely to their team name rather than any commercial association. This iconic photograph serves as a testament to the enduring legacy of these rugby giants. Preserved through time by Colorsport Images' Colin Elsey's lensmanship, this snapshot encapsulates not only a momentous sporting event but also represents an era when rugby union was defined by passion and camaraderie. It stands as a reminder of how sport can unite nations while showcasing individual brilliance within a collective effort.
