This great stuff... thank you forposting. Do you have any others? For instance, the 1982 game where Canty lifted the shield.

Unfortunately know. I didn't get a video recorder until 1983! I think I may have Wayne Smith's winning try somewhere tho'. I'll post it up if I can track it down.

Craig Green was a bloody good player...he had a great world cup in 87, its just unfortunate he was overshadowed by the brilliant form of Kirwan at the time

Robbie Deans....should have been a permanant All Black and should be the current All Black coach
