THE INVINCIBLES DVD: 1974 British and Irish Lions Tour of South African In 1974 the South African apartheid regime was under worldwide condemnation; in defiance of a developing international policy to isolate South Africa, the British and Irish Lions rugby team controversially accepted the invitation to tour the country and play a test series against their ancient rivals. The series was one of the most violent in Lions history; yet those 22 matches produced remarkable rugby and many memorable tries. The Lions enjoyed unparalleled success and they went unbeaten, going down in rugby legend as The Invincibles . This film, which includes unique personal footage from the players, is both a thrilling celebration of a remarkable rugby team and a poignant reminder of the scale of change in South Africa since that landmark tour. Interviews include personal insights from the following: Willie-John McBride, Gareth Edwards, JJ Williams, JPR Williams, Fran Cotton, Roger Uttley, Fergus Slattery, Makhenkesi Stofile (Minister of Sport RSA) and Peter Hain MP. GREATEST MOMENTS OF RUGBY LITTLE BOOK: Few people can dispute that rugby is the most passionate sport in the world and there can be no more dramatic spectacle than 30 players giving their all in a brutal encounter. The combination of skill and courage makes lions out of limbs and the social side of rugby leads to many friendly arguments as to who were the best players and what were the best matches. This book gives ample food for thought by highlighting such memorable moments as Jonny Wilkinson kicking England to World Cup glory, Gareth Edwards scoring the greatest ever try for the Ba Bas, and Jonah Lomu walking through England s defence on his way to another try. More recently, the great games haven t come much better than the British & Irish Lions sensational victory in the third test against the Wallabies to seal the series in 2013 which made a world superstar out of Leigh Halfpenny. The debates will continue to rage and if nothing else, this book will give you
