Wales rugby 1969 v England

Wales rugby 1969 backs provide a platform for a great jinking run and try by Barry John.


What`s going on...

Wales in red shirts with the ball playing left to right.

This Welsh movement really gets going with a terrific chip and regather by Jarrett(?)

He runs again after regathering but then throws a loose ball which goes behind his support.

But it`s OKl...

Barry John, backing up slightly behind the back line, takes the ball neatly on the bounce.

He stretches out.. but not for long...

Seeing an England player covering across he realises he`ll not make it on the outside.

He quickly shortens stride...

...clever short paces...

Finished with a two footed skip sideways he`s past the England defender on the inside.

Picking up pace again and carrying the ball out in front in two hands he heads for the try line, weaving his way forward.

He finishes by sidestepping the England  #7 coming across in cover defence just metres from the line and touches down...

Great footwork!

Fantastic try!



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 5:38 mark (it seems to vary a little!).

It has the heading Barry John 1969 - Wales v England

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

you can also see this Barry John footwork on YouTube
