Will to Win by Peter Cornwell. England v South Africa, Twickenham, 2nd December 2000. With impressive victories over Australia and Argentina under their belts, England entered the game against the Springboks with an air of confidence. Having tied the summer test series in South Africa 1-1 with a memorable win in Bloemfontein, England were aware that victory was well within their capabilities. As in Bloemfontein, Jonny Wilkinson proved to be a threat to the South Africans and dissected the posts in just seven minutes to put three points on the board for England. However, the Springboks' reply was swift and Braam Van Straaten leveled the scores within three minutes. England's pack dominated the opening quarter with some punishing forward drives, assisted by some cleverly crafted interplay in the backs and Wilkinson's second penalty on thirteen minutes was just reward for their endeavour. But in typical fashion the Springboks refused to be rolled over. A well worked set move enabled the South Africans to spin the ball wide and with Breyton Paulse's presence on the wing giving South Africa a man over Montgomerie was able to cut through some poor England defence and would have scored if not for Dan Luger's perfectly timed tackle preventing Montgomerie from grounding the ball. The South Africans continued to probe England's defensive line and eventually England conceded a penalty in front of the posts which Van Straaten easily converted and once again brought the score level at 6-6. With just ten minutes remaining until half time the England pack began to assert themselves on the Springboks. Wilkinson secured his third penalty of the match and England nosed ahead once again. The Springboks began to lose their composure under the constant pressure of the home side and it was here that England took full advantage. Wilkinson collected the ball from scrum half Matt Dawson and whilst almost stationary fed Will Greenwood with a cleverly distributed short pass. With a turn of pace Greenwood burst through two South African defenders and headed for the opposition's try line. A shrewd drop of the shoulder enabled Greenwood to side step the two remaining defenders before crossing the line close to the posts. Wilkinson's typically accurate conversion made it 16-6 but Van Straaten reduced the lead to just seven points with a penalty just prior to the break. A fourth penalty from the boot of Wilkinson quickly ensued and England went into the interval 19-9 leaders. South Africa commenced the second half the much stronger side and Van Straaten punished some poor England tackling to score a try just five minutes from the restart. He failed to convert but had managed to reduce the deficit to five points and in doing so placed England on the defence. England weathered the storm and even managed to stretch their lead as South Africa conceded a penalty wide on the left. The Springboks endeavoured to exert some pressure on England and in doing so lost the cohesion that they possessed at the start of the second half. Wilkinson kicked a further two penalties in reply to just three points from Van Straaten. England had defeated the mighty Springboks with a spirited display and in doing so demonstrated their strength in depth and established themselves as one of the most feared sides in the world. |

Pride of Lions 74 by Keith Fearon. In 1974 the greatest rugby union side ever to leave the British Isles took on the mighty Springboks in a gruelling 22 match series, including four test matches. By the end, each member of that historic team had entered British Rugby folklore. Several of the victorious side from the 1971 tour of New Zealand united once again and accomplished a remarkable unbeaten record of 21 consecutive victories and a draw in the final test, however, many commentators feel that a perfect record was denied due to poor refereeing. Individual performances, which caught the headlines, included the magnificent half-back pairing of Phil Bennett and Gareth Edwards. JJ Williams completed two brilliant tries during the third test and finished with an impressive 112 tour tries in total. Roger Uttleys appearance in no less than 16 of the 22 games was a formidable achievement and JPR Williams, possibly the greatest ever full back, would have won the final test with a magnificent run to set up Fergus Slatterys try only for it to be dubiously disallowed. Scotlands Ian McGeechan demonstrated superb agility and pace in the centre whilst fellow country man, Andy Irvine, produced countless moments of sublime skill in the final two tests and will always be remembered as one of the most gifted players ever to don a Lions shirt. The Lions tremendous forward line led by inspirational Captain Willie John McBride was in many respects the driving force behind the success of the 1974 tour. McBrides courage and leadership singled him out above all others, as this was to be his fifth and final Lions tour. McBrides Lions career spanned a remarkable 12 years and 17 tests, a record, which may never be surpassed. The other forwards including Cotton, McLauchlan, Gordon Brown, Windsor, Slattery and Mervyn Davies combined effectively to set up a strong platform for victory and proved to be stalwarts in both attack and defence. Everyone returned from the 1974 tour a hero and it would be fair to say that this unparalleled squad is still a benchmark to which each and every successive Lions team since 1974 have strived to emulate. |
