Five Nations 1999: Wales vs England at Wembley. The Second Half

[woot8687]

John Cleese reffed a good game. 

[oddzag]

One of the defining moments of my childhood, when I realised I was a Welshman, aged nine.

[Grindgodgrind]

Scott Gibbs and Neil Jenkins were my heroes when I was younger.

3 Matt Dawson cheating behind refs back to win them their last minute scrum

4 Despite Eddie Butlers moaning - rodber fractured charvis skull with his high shot

RIP Bill - The best, most humble and impartial sports commentator ever

[DaiJonesful]

Amazing emotions. There is so much passion in Eddie Butlers anger toward Scott Gibbs. "Don't do that. Just put it down for the try". It all means so much.

RIP BILL

2:38, talk about acceleration!

Remember listening to this game on the BBC World Service. Did a furious dance of joy when Gibbs went over. Great win for Wales in a great game of rugby that gave us (Scotland) the championship. Anybody got highlights of Scotland's amazing five-tries-in-20-minutes blitz against France from 1999?

[ronaldinhollew]

I was only 9 when this game was played, and on holiday in Paris with my Mother and Grandmother who couldn't give a toss about Rugby. This was the same weekend you Scots played France in Paris.

I remember walking into a bar where two huge smiling men sat in their tartan, drinking. I asked them if they knew the Wales score and they told me those magical words: 32-31.

Needless to say I nearly hit the roof with delight!

[ChuckieMcHaggis]

Marvellous. Great day for Welsh and Scottish rugby.

[davecscott1974]

Sheer class - Cheers Jenks, Shane, Gibbsy and the rest - still makes me roar ten years later - by a very pleased Scotsman

[SouthAuck]

How the hell did Shane Howarth EVER play international rugby?????

[Salsiccia1]

The All Blacks must have rated him at one point...

[chrisjoneschrisjones]
