EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the intense clash between Richmond and Llanelli during the 1976/1977 Rugby Union season. The image captures a moment of sheer determination as Llanelli's Roy Thomas stands on the sidelines at Richmond Athletic Ground. Roy Thomas, an exceptional talent, had been named as a substitute for Wales on an impressive 25 occasions throughout his career. However, fate would have it that he never stepped foot onto the field in a Welsh jersey to showcase his skills in an official match. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of both his immense potential and untapped opportunities. The atmosphere surrounding this historic encounter is palpable; you can almost feel the anticipation radiating from the crowd. The players' faces are etched with focus and adrenaline, ready to give their all for their respective teams. Colorsport photographer Colin Elsey has masterfully captured this pivotal moment in rugby history, freezing it forever within this stunning print. His keen eye for detail allows us to appreciate every nuance of emotion displayed by both Thomas and those around him. As we gaze upon this evocative image, we are transported back in time, reliving the intensity and passion that defined rugby matches of yesteryears. It serves as a testament not only to one player's unfulfilled dreams but also to the enduring spirit of competition that continues to captivate fans worldwide today.
