2003 Grand Slam by James Owen. On three occasions since their last Grand Slam in 1995 the England team had come within a whisker of completing another dream. During this important build up towards the world cup England finally laid their ghost to rest. After six years under the guidance of Head Coach Clive Woodward England, having beaten the big three from the Southern Hemisphere in a back-to-back series of matches at Twickenham, reached number one in the Zurich world ranking. This Grand Slam, a wonderful achievement in itself, underlined Englands worldwide dominance. |

Pride of Lions 89 by Simon Smith. The British Lions toured Australia in the Summer of 1989 in the knowledge that no Lions touring side had won a Test Series since Willie John McBrides team of 1974 had triumphed in South Africa 15 years previously. Against such stars as Campese, Farr Jones, Lynagh and Ella the Lions led by Scotlands Finlay Caulder knew the odds were stacked against them. In a three test series, anyone who didn't know the enormity of the Lions task soon found out as a rampant Wallabies side thrashed the Lions 30-12. Team manager Clive Rowlands with coaches Roger Uttley and Ian McGeechan, both veterans of the 74 Lions team, made sweeping changes for the Second Test in Brisbane bringing in the likes of Teague and Dooley to strengthen the side. Jeremy Guscotts game breaking try chasing his own kick stunned the Australians and levelled the series at one game all. The Third and deciding Test saw the teams return to the scene of the Wallabies triumph in the first match in Sydney. The teams traded penalties and were level at 9-9 at half time. A Lynagh penalty edged the Australians in front, then with the Lions pressing David Campese threw a wild pass behind his own line and Welshman Ieuan Evans pounced to give the Lions the lead. Hastings penalties stretched the lead 19-12 when two more Lynagh penalties brought the Wallabies to within a point. The Lions were hanging on in a desperate rearguard action as Australia searched in vain for the one score that would win the series. Calders Lions hung on and the Lions were victorious for the first time since 1974. |
Twist in the Tale by Peter Cornwell. Englands victory over Austrlia in 2000. In their first game in five months, England achieved what many regarded as the impossible, a victory over the World Champions Australia. From the outset England pressurised Australia with some fast attacking rugby. Within the first quarter of an hour England were rewarded with two penalties and took a 6 - 0 lead. Australia quickly levelled the score through the boot of Matt Burke. Penalties were exchanged again before Griffin was sin binned just before half time, which England took full advantage of and nosed in fron 12 - 9 through Johnny Wilkinson. Although Australia began the second half a man down it was in fact they who started the brighter side. Englands forwards gave away a careless free kick and with a quick tap and go Australia drove the ball downfield and after some outstannding work by Joe Roff spun the ball out to the left for Burke to score. Burke successfully converted his own try and went on to increase Australias lead with yet another penalty eight minutes into the second half, making the score 12 - 19. England needed to make changes. Matt Dawson was brought on for Bracken and Balshaw replaced Austin Healey. With victory in sight Australia began to slow the game down and the crowd became increasingly incensed. Wilkinson kicked a further penalty and with time slipping away England began to enforce an increasing amount of pressure on the Australian defence. With just seconds remaining Balshaw saw Englands only hope of victory and placed an inch perfect chip over the Australian defensive line for Dan Luger to chase. With outstanding anticipation Luger managed to touch the ball down. After confirmation by the video referee and the conversion by Wilkinson, which followed, England had managed to secure a memorable victory over Australia, winning 22 - 19. |
