CGI at its best. It never happened. Fake.

Ryan Crotty deep into stoppage time in Dublin in 2013.

A great team try that will never ever get old watching.

How no one under that pressure and environment dropped the ball or knocked on, especially with the number of touches from tight forwards, still amazes me. The pace we played at too.

Cullen at the Hong Kong 7s, quality is shit but have never forgotten this try.

Wow. Tony Johnson commentating way back in 96? I'd never heard of him until I returned from OE in early 2000s.

@Virgil I was going to post that one but got distracted. Scary that he scored a bunch of tries in 15s that looked like 7s tries

Nick Farr Jones commentating too. Always enjoyed his insights.

Might search out a video when I have time but that try Lomu scored against the Saders when he fended off Vunibaka twice has probably grown in my memory over time.

@Kirwan so many things fell into place, but for me, the key to that try is Aaron Smith.

What are farken legend. Turns back to pick up bad pass, the acceleration, the momentum even when falling, Jonah and Cully are the two best try scorers I've ever seen

Hands up if the words "Gordon Hamilton 1991" brings back instant visuals?

He was everywhere.

The thing that sticks out to me was our ruck work. Ireland really poured in on every tackle and we were able to secure ball.

Read’s no look pass back on the inside to Bender was just audacious in the circumstances

Remember watching that game with the family and we were all gutted after that final Wallaby try. Good test match that.

[Crucial]

Well my old brain played tricks on me. Of course Jonah's try was for Wellington against Canterbury not the Saders

Apologies for the stupid music but this is the clip as on youtube

@Crucial Wellington coached by Dave Rennie.

96 Boks tour one that is burned in the old memory is from the first test - Wilson’s chip and chase down the right side off a scrum from our own half.

It was the second Test in Pretoria.

[Rapido]

Another great from Blanco. Not burned in my memory, but stumbled across it trying to find their other great 5 Nations try from the era, at Parc des Princes.

Any try scored by Scotland in the 2010s....about three or four I think

@Rapido Speaking of the bloody French

last time we lost at EP, Nightmare on Jonah's debut. Amazing team try and one of those events that adds to their aura
