Great tries burned into your memory

Considering i had no skin in this game, I'll always remember the first 3 tries in this test, all fucking crackers
O'Driscoll's is a scorcher. 2 mauls to get the Wallabies on their heels, then that break and just doing the usually reliable Matt Burke.
Jason Robinson skinning Latham (?) with 5m of space is fucking good too.

Richard Tsimba, Zimbabwe v Romania, 1987 RWC
Did his shoulder in the dive from memory
Was at that match. Good try but he looked like a fool having to go off injured after showboating.

@booboo Batty! Intercept!
His little legs were pumping, but Andy Irvine was mowing him down....luckily the line came when it did!
The crowd reaction after the try is awesome too.

@mariner4life I watched that first test at an Irish pub in Richmond, packed with Lions and non-Wallaby supporters and it was electric.
That was an awesome series - quality rugby, massive crowd support and many mates who were diehard AFL supporters started to take an interest in rugby as a result.

They didn't even play 'Hey Baby'

I donβt agree with all of these being included, but that Stormers try vs Chiefs first up was top shelf.

@ACT-Crusader you can garn get fucked if you think i am clicking on anything with the headline "22 tries that shocked WORLD RUGBY"
all that's missing is "number 7 will surprise you"

I went to that game! BOD scored in front of me.
I was in the midst of my modelling career, and happened to pick up a couple of weeks of work in Brisbane right at the time. That was an absolutely massive series, Australia just went nuts with the travelling support. SOmething like 50,000 Lions fans crammed into downtown BrisVegas ... coming from little 'ol NZ I'd never seen that sort of support.
Plus I got to see the Wobs beaten, which was kinda fun. Still have no idea how or when I got back to my hotel... must have teleported somehow. Great fun, loved the Lions tour. Lots of dads and kids just having a great time and getting on the lash. Winning was just a massive bonus.
