EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from 1956, we are transported back to a historic rugby match between Wales and Scotland. The image captures the intense action on the pitch as Wales centre Malcolm Thomas skillfully clears the ball to touch under the watchful gaze of his teammates Clem Thomas and W O Williams. What makes this moment even more remarkable is the backdrop of an overnight operation to save the game from being postponed due to heavy frost. As we can see, there is still straw scattered across the pitch, evidence of the dedicated efforts made by gangs of volunteers who kept braziers burning throughout the evening before the match in order to thaw out the frozen ground. The determination and resilience displayed by both teams in these challenging conditions truly exemplify their passion for rugby union. Despite limited visibility caused by fog and a treacherous playing surface, these men fearlessly battled it out for victory. And triumph they did! In this particular encounter, Wales emerged victorious with a final scoreline of 9-3 against Scotland. This memorable moment captured by Western Mail and Echo Copyright serves as a testament not only to their sporting prowess but also to their unwavering spirit in overcoming adversity. This stunning photograph encapsulates an era when rugby was played with grit and determination amidst challenging circumstances – a true testament to its enduring legacy.
