On one side, we see the local heroes proudly donning their striped jerseys representing Cornwall, while on the other side stands the touring South African Springboks team. The image freezes a crucial moment during this thrilling encounter - a scrum. Bodies tightly packed together, muscles straining against each other as players fight for possession of the ball. Surrounding them are towering trees and an old building that add to the rustic charm of this Cornish field. The atmosphere is electric as a crowd eagerly watches every move from behind makeshift barriers. Their faces filled with anticipation and excitement reflect their unwavering support for both sides.
