THE STORY OF RUGBY WORLD CUP 1995 - SOUTH AFRICA

It s become one of the most famous and poignant sporting images of all time President Nelson Mandela, the symbol of post apartheid South Africa, dressed in a Springbok jersey handing rugby s World Cup to his nation's captain, Francois Pienaar. Pienaar' s side had always found a way - on and off the field... they had united a nation in support and stampeded all over rugby logic. Never more so than in a thunderous final when they defeated the mighty All Blacks a New Zealand side boasting the previously unstoppable rugby juggernaut, Jonah Lomu. They did it thanks to a frightening level of defensive commitment and because they possessed the coolest man on the pitch, Joel Stransky. He it was who kicked the decisive drop goal deep into extra time. History was made; a new era the era of the Rainbow Nation had dawned. Now, with previously unseen material, re-live the highlights of the entire tournament plus the final in full and the extraordinary post match celebrations. Includes previously unseen changing room interviews. Click on the bottom illustration to the left for running time, region info etc.

1921 SPRINGBOKS RUGBY ORIGINAL PHOTO

A beautiful photo of the 1921 Springboks, the first S African team to tour New Zealand. The photo (which is original by Crown Studios, Wellington)) is mounted, framed and glazed. The mount is printed with the teams details and the players are named. This is very likely to be a photo presented to the South Africans by the New Zealand Rugby Union in appreciation of their tour. There is some water damage to the lower part of the mount otherwise the condition is good. The series between NZ and South Africa was drawn, with both teams winning a match and the final test ending in a draw. A superb piece of sporting memorabilia.
