The World's End Try(l'essai du bout du monde )

[marsaress]

alala... des belles choses on en fait pas souvent mais quand on en fait...

[kahlan4182]

blancoooooooo !

[ImEasyAs]

I think was in full blown tears after that try.

On the that day ... no country in the world could hav beaten France.

[zamalothek]

ce qui est fabuleux c'est que même pour la dernière passe, le joueur n'était pas obligé de passer la balle pour marquer l'essai; preuve que le rugby est un sport de partage.

[4Robber]

Wouldn't call it the try of the century. Thats just a countries media trying to boost their countrys confidence up. Good try but not the try of the century.

[daftever]

@4Robber the britons called it the try of the century. not us.

[BobLeeSwaggaa]

That was some impressive ball movement.

[kpmxyz]

When the French are hot, they're on fire!

[juliennepc]

Yeah baby!

[zoltar56]

The same french team loast against Canada two weeks before!! Then they won in NZ twice.

[dje2671]

Try of the century?! Seriously? Which century?

[clems75]

@dje2671

may be the one you're not belong to

[Sat191]

just 2 words are necessary to describe this try: "French Flair"

[stoprainingonme]

So many missed tackles...

[stpats01]

average

[kefster00]

All Blacks suck!

[CrazyEvo5]

@kefster00 All Blacks suck? You must not watch that much rugby with that comment. They are always regarded as the team to beat and have the best stats in the history of the game.

[UHtiger]

Meh

[qazxsdecw]

that is very good i like at the end when he passed to the fullback was good so they got the try but the all blacks are still the best

[AnimatorsUnighted]

uhhhh... 0o  -

[bloomsburymike]

absolutely marvellous Rugby...and fantastic against the All Blacks - not often you see them left standing!!!

[Sijuste]

et c'est pas fini...

[DancingMedicineMan]

ireland ireland together standing small

[SD78]

My school played the curtain-raiser to this game and we got benchs literally on the sideline.

[pepetieneunperro]

okay thank you very much taranBZH, i've just changed the name.

[marvellousmadser]

@pepetieneunperro Wasn't it scored by Jean-Luc Sadourny? Saint-André was number 11 and he started it. Sadourny was 15, who finished it.

[TaranBZH]

( excuse my english, i'm french =) )

This try was named " l'essai du bout du monde "- " the world's end try ".

The " try of the century " was scored by Philippe Saint-André, in 1991, against England. (watch?v=B9mSNRt459U)

[riskygjk]

awesome try. & I'm a kiwi. that was pretty amazing.

[alexba44]

the name try of the century is from the Sunday Times

[348chris]

brilliant, but maybe try of the week

[R00m5]

@ 348chris : Please, show us what you'd call "try of the century".

[AttackTheGasStation1]

348chris --> troll !! it's a fucking Thai, he knows nothing about rugby !!!

LOL Thaishit !!!

[348chris]

no i'm welsh my little frog freind

[AttackTheGasStation1]

"i'm welsh" --> I'm sorry for you.

[llandudnoboy]

Really classy Rugby.

[NiallMarks]

amazing!

[aaronfj1]

not even close to try of the century.

i've seen better at club level

[killerondafeet]

Very good try

[zoltar56]

Jonah was in this team. He actually started with AB the week before in the first test against France. That is the only tour France won in NZ until now. The funny thing is that 1 week before "les bleus" were beaten by Canada!!!

[TRIGMASTER06]

very unselfish of the player to pass that ball to the fullback right at the end just to make sure the try was scored 100%

[liltank90]

timdalf. THANK U its good to see a northern hemisphere person admitting new zealand are good at rugby

[petercourt]

@liltank90 Course New Zealand are good at rugby. I'm English but disputing that is silly.

[wrighta04]

yes they are, anyone who denies it must be blind

[saulnz]

Brilliant try!! PS wasn't last weeks game beautiful to watch!

[Chagr179]

teatro

[timdalf]

Simply amazing. I have always loved France as a Rugby Union side, even though as a Scot, my heart belongs to Scotland. As for the Kiwis? They show us what rugby can be- 80 minutes of poetry.

[moelwyn2000]

I'm Welsh and I think that try is every bit as good as the barbarians against NZ. Amazing. It's a testament to the All Blacks that all the best tries and all the best matches involve them, winners or losers.

[sekano93]

I'm not sur about that chickensaltsgansta....

[chickensaltsgangsta]

that is a great try, lets see you score one of those when you lose to the all blacks next week!

[jarsonist]

I hope Wayne Barnes is the ref.

[Joce378]

Did you see how the french forwards destroyed the boks ??? Good luck to your Probs !!!

[chickensaltsgangsta]

Yeah i honestly think we may need a bit of luck, the french are playing great rugby at the moment. Will make for a cracker game, go the ab's!!!!

[Joce378]

Yeah mate, I wish this game will be the final of the 2011 WRC...

[Joce378]

I wish good luck to the Kiwis for today's game. Whatever the score, all I want to see is fuckin' good Rugby between the best teams of the moment, and the most offensive teams of the history of the game.

[gibson192]

I fart in your general direction...

[mcs1hr]

Amazing try, as good as it gets, but I rather like Josh Lewsey's v France, in Paris to knock them out of their World Cup in 07.

There's nothing like beating France in Paris - they don't like it up 'em.

[Rasperdan]

What a plonker

[det255]

that is nowhere near an aussie try :) but its ok

[rhysthemachine]

try of the century my ass, ive scored better tries than tht, just cuz ur a frenchy, u think everything ur team does is amazing, even tho we completely dicked the fuck out of u in 6 nations

[djaak12000]

It was dubbed "try of the century" by the Sunday Times, maybe you know this famous French newspaper? :-p

Maybe you could also explain why the results of this year's 6 nations is relevant to a 1991 try?

Not everything the French team does is amazing, of course. But you oviously know nothing about rugby if you think that beating the All-Blacks on their own soil with a try like this scored in extra time is anything but amazing.

[Rasperdan]

I could not agree more

[Rightio]

rhys if you really think that england could score a try with as much attacking flair as this one you are seriously deluded

[shizzshibb5]

wtf its a good try because of how they worked together rather than just one person running through crappy players to get a try!

[fab31158]

On vous aime les rosbeefs.

Par contre je trouve que ce que tu dis à la fin n'a rien à faire sur une vidéo de rugby, c'est d'un ridicule...

[AttackTheGasStation1]

"On vous aime les rosbeefs" --> parle pour toi.

[boule88170]

Vivae la france!!!

[HarryPottard]

All Blacks are the best at 15's thats just a fact, even if they dont play so well atm, they are always number 1 in 15's

& Fiji is always the best at 7s, thats just how rugby is.. unless theres more money into 15's in samoa tonga Fiji ect.. & South Africa & Australia are also ALWAYS in top 3.... Southern Himosphear is the best rugby, so dont play smart french guys xD

[dartmoordog]

No they aint....

[karlking400]

ahem... ireland....i do beleave we can give you southern lads a run for ur money

[DoctorineKureha]

Well...we never won the WC, so play smart is all we can have. Play smart, and the try of the century, according to the english ;)

Vive le XV!

Vive les Blacks!

Vive le rugby!

[ikvat]

My favorite moment of that try is the last pass which give a summary of what rugby spirit is.

[sidh05]

Similarly, after WWII, they were again reintroduced in the 5 nations (They had been expeled in 32).

If you see the film Chariots of Fire, they point out that military friendship.

France rugby team also started to play a lot of tests agains Southern Hemisphere teams for the same reasons. So many of them died in France after the outbreak of WWI.

Also, tennis became important for that french generation. That's why the french dominated tennis in the late 20's.

[constructorful]

South Africa owns both france and you roos!

[AttackTheGasStation1]

Not easy, in rugby France is the only great latin country ( and now argentina ) and we ever fight with all the anglo-saxons nations. Anglo-saxons crowds, referees etc...And anglo-saxons people hate that is not anglo-saxon, and anglo-saxons people hate France.

[chavmanx]

Ireland, Scotland and wales aren't anglo-saxon they are celtic nations

[AttackTheGasStation1]

True. But english speakers.

In France, we love Irish and Scottish people.

[sidh05]

Yes but historically, rugby is important is France because of WWI which France fought with Anglo-saxons countries. So many of them died in France from British Empire, South Africa, Africa, India, Australia, New Zealand, US, Canada.

[AttackTheGasStation1]

Yes, what's the connection between WW1 and rugby ?

[sidh05]

In 1904 France signed an alliance with British Empire after centuries of problems. They were joined by Russia. From that on, English culture became important in France, Football, rugby, tennis. Thus they were admitted in the 5 nations tournament in 1910. After WWI, to honour that friendship, France was reintroduced in 5 nations (They had been expelled in 1914). Do you understand the connection?

[pacificspotted]

french flair!

[nflizsoft6]

france suck compared to the wallabies

[AttackTheGasStation1]

Wallabies are a boring ream. Without soul, bulldozers without any interest.

[AttackTheGasStation1]

Boring team.

[nflizsoft6]

wallabies are a winning team,its ok if your jealous of their talent

[AttackTheGasStation1]

No because All blacks and Springboks are also great teams and I admire them. You see, not jealousy.

When I watch Wallabies, I sleep. Just a fact. I love both New Zealand and South Africa. That's all. Ok ??

Happy day, from Paris

[nflizsoft6]

please the springboks have to be the dirtest team to ever play rugby,why would you admire that,the all blacks are lrite though

[amangonecrazy]

france could beat anybody, if they feel like it, thats how skilled they are

[boyshey]

overrated

[jani54700]

VIVE L'EQUIPE DE FRANCE!!

[lonejafa]

and that's Jonah Lomu escorting the french player to the try line....aaaaargh

[liltank90]

uhm thats not jonah lomu at all. sorry to say

[oocdbrown]

I thought Lomu was there. Who was it?

[liltank90]

dont quote me on it but i think its eroni clarke, or even eric rush. but he had a 4 on his back and being 4 is a lock i assume theres meant to be a 1 before it, not sure but it doesnt look like lomu

[liltank90]

no wait its a 15

[mjmeleisea]

Its Jonah alright

[rochl22]

yea na its not ae, the guys got a 4 on his back i cant think of a test that jonah played at right wing, so ye na it not jonah

[mjmeleisea]

It is Ill bet you a dozen of what ever you want. its jonah without a doubt

[liltank90]

mate im telling that isnt jonah lomu, jonah has never played a game at full back before in his life,

infact if you pause it at 0.36 you'll see jonah on the left (as your facing the screen) of the number 7 then if you follow him you will see him give up the chase when he gets to the goalposts. its a number 15 that goes over the tryline with the french guy, now watch it properly

[mjmeleisea]

its jonah and hes wearing the number 11 it was his second game for the ABs you dont know anything, in fact Ithink you might be an idiot

[rochl22]

sorry if u pause it at .42 seconds ull see its a 15 jonah lomu never played 15 ok expert

[mjmeleisea]

Its jonah Ill bet yo a bottle of 12 year old single malt. It was his second game in the black jumper

[mjmeleisea]

15 is jonn timu who converted to league and played for the bulldogs. number 11 is lomu yo nonce

[liltank90]

yup and its john timu going over in the tackle, watch closely, infact i think u might be blind. jonah lomu chased for a lil bit but then gave up wen timu came flying up from the back to make the tackle. the guy going over in the tackle is number 15. John timu

[liltank90]

jonah lomu is chasing emile ntamack at 0.33 follow him he isnt the one making the tackle the one making the tackle at the end is number 15

[mjmeleisea]

yup no argument from me Im talking to the guy who said jonah wasnt playing when clearly he his

[liltank90]

read the below comments please im not saying jonah wasnt playing, i apologised for that and sed i was wrong. the guy down the page said it was jonah who took him over the tryline im saying it was a number 15 not jonah lomu

[mjmeleisea]

Yep we agree entierly I was responding to someone else who thought jonah wasnt playing. your 100% right the player tackling is John Timu

[SD78]

The Black Nightmare made Jonah his prison girlfriend in this game.

[mjmeleisea]

It was a shamefull day in NZ rugby and I suspect well see more of the same

[liltank90]

so do we agree its not jonah lomu tackling the guy over the line?

[MrSargeSays]

This is why I love the French Rugby team.

Whether it's NZ or Namibia, You know that on their day they'll put on a show and give anyone (even the Blackness) a lesson on how this wonderful sport should be played.

[66Nico]

Fabulous Test Series win for the French. Try from the 'End of the World' or something they call this?

[Jdigeon]

Guess all blacks still feel sore from 2007.

[ikomidico]

in all honesty can you tell me wayne barnes refereed that game fairly and that there were no dubious calls made?

[R00m5]

I'm french, and I really think (and hope) there were no "dubious calls" made.

But it's true that the referee was bad. NZ should have win the 2007 rwc match against France, even if they didn't play a top level match at all.

This month, France has beaten the Al Blacks in NZ, and I'd like to see both Fr and NZ teams play at their best on the 06/20/2009 revenge ! :p

[Pimponator]

smooth play....but not the best

[theeastterrace]

Are you aware of the context of this try? How late in the game? How it won the series? How it meant France were the first team to whitewash NZ on their own soil? I guess not.

[kalimonga]

In is the second test match, 1994. France won the first. We are during money time, 5 minutes to Go. AB have the lead by 3 points. It is the last chance ball...

The most amazing in that, is the last pass (I think it is Franck Mesnel). If you look carefully, you will see that he could have scored himself. But he ads one more pass, which show the spirit of this great team (with Saint André, Ntamack, etc).

[NZbufu]

it's a pretty good try.

but ive seen better from other teams.

[Ricardothepom]

Typical Kiwi!! No try against NZ will ever be given any credit at all because it was against NZ! Try using both eyes!!

[NZbufu]

Didn't i just give credit.

Quote "it's a pretty good try."

And no, im just saying that i've seen better tries from all the teams in general.

So dont give me this typical shit.

[wjamre]

Typical Pom, loves seeing the AB's beaten when ALL the rest of the world loves seeing the Poms go down!!

French on their day can beat any team!

[Ricardothepom]

Yes, of course I like seeing NZ go down, same with the Aussies and SA. This game was particularly good because NZ again appeared to be carrying all before them, and again came down to earth with a bump when it counted. Shame it was against France rather than England, but hey - who cares?

Got your All Black chokers ready for the next RWC??

[wjamre]

Firstly NO British team has ever beaten N.Z. in a world cup. Usually they are thrashed!!

Secondly England have only won once. no better than N.Z.

Thirdly, every test match counts, and at last count the score was 25-6 to N.Z. The All Blacks having won the last seven!!

But You get another chance later in the year after the Boks thrash the Lions!!!

[jbat100]

Come on you've got to admit it's up there with the best ever. Maybe you're just sore because ireland have never beaten the blacks while france have beaten them 11 times.

[NZbufu]

11 times aint that much you know.

[jbat100]

I'm not contesting the fact that the blacks are the best team in the world. They are, by quite a long way. But the french, if they're having good day, can beat them (just). When the blacks are having a good day however they'll put 30 points on any team out there...

[NZbufu]

guess so.

[Bucketheadhead]

Against the ABs, 11 victories is a good record

[Lowx76]

French Flair

[greena987]

hows this the worst try eva wata twat. its awsum

[lejaguardu44]

i'm french and rugby is not my practice sport, but, i love all the sports and really know them as if i practice them ( omg my english -_-)and this try IS the try i never seen in my life. thx france i love you.

[moveonupcb]

this is my fav try as it was in the last minute and to beat all blacks. gareth edwards 1973 matches this as well.

[sabfan66]

part 2 Biarritz against cardiff today was a great example french flair - it is now nothing more than a fading memory - in europe it is now only the welsh sides who are keeping the spirit going albeit in small measure - unfortunately professional rugby has killed flare

[sabfan66]

I've admired french flair for many years its sad to see what professional rugby has done to this type of rugby and in particular France - all the flair has gone out of their game both in the national side and in their club teams. Whereas 5 -10 years ago they were a joy to watch now they are struggling to make any impression at all on the British sides and ar probably the most boring european side to watch.

[tonythekingfisher]

Great try, but not quite as good as the try by Gareth Edwards for The Barbarians against The All Blacks in 1973. That was in a class of its own.

[kraaam]

beautiful...can't believe i hadn't seen that

[HumanBeingMan1]

Amazing try.

[HH72000]

C'est tout simplement E N O R M E!!!

L'essaie du siecle porte bien son nom ^^!

[Pironin]

I can't believe that French Flair is dead!!

See Rougerie, Clerc, Dominici, Heymans...

They have French Flair!!

[thejackoss]

french flair's dead now...

[guime87]

That's why i love rugby...

putain c'est bon.

[barty116]

French flair at its best! one of the best trys ever exept maybe da baba's V new zealand. Aller le blue!

[Spoonhorse27]

Superb try, probably the best of all time.
