Barbarian rugby 1973 v NZ

Barbarian rugby 1973 and JPR Williams neatly sidesteps the last defender to complete a great piece of play.


What`s going on...

Barbarian team are in the  black and white hoops playing left to right.

Duckham gets the ball near the 10 metre line close to the near touchline after a New Zealand kick looked as though it would find touch.

He gathers the ball and winds up his speed as he goes past Gareth Edwards the Barbarian number 9.

Watch his beautifully balanced running as he slaloms his way through three New Zealand defenders and then beats a fourth would-be tackler.

After further play #7 passes the ball to JPR Williams, #15

He has only the full back to beat...

Slightly before Williams cleverly feints towards his left, he takes a shortish pace with his right leg.

This helps in throwing his weight as he sidesteps right.

Although the defender undoubtably knows where Williams is going, the change of direction is so significant he leaves the defender sprawling...

... JPR goes in to score.


Good sidestep!


I need to see it!...

It's on the rugby video tape "101 Best Tries - with Cliff Morgan" - my VCR  says it`s around the 15:20 mark (it seems to vary a little!).

It has the heading JPR Williams - 1973 Barbarians v All Blacks

Use slow motion. Study it - it`ll come in useful.

You can also see it on YouTube.
