EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to a momentous day in rugby history. The image captures the formidable Terrible Eight of 1914, led by the revered Rev Alban Davies, as they faced their Irish adversaries in Belfast. The intensity and determination emanating from these eight men is palpable. Standing tall on the left are Percy Jones, Edgar Morgan, Harry Uzzell, T. C. Lloyd, and D. Watts - each one a force to be reckoned with on the field. Seated at the center is none other than Rev Alban Davies himself, exuding an air of authority and unwavering faith. This group of warriors engaged in what can only be described as a "private war" against their opponents that day - a battle so fierce it made headlines across newspapers far and wide. Their sheer strength and skill brought them face-to-face with their Irish counterparts who fought valiantly but were ultimately held at bay by this indomitable Welsh team. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, we cannot help but feel captivated by the spirit of camaraderie and passion for sport that radiates from each player's expression. This photograph serves as a testament to the enduring legacy of rugby - a game that unites nations through competition while fostering respect among rivals. Let us cherish this glimpse into history; let us celebrate these remarkable individuals who etched their names into sporting folklore; let us remember how they embodied both grace and grit
