EDITORS COMMENTS
In this iconic print captured by Colorsport Images, we are transported back to the thrilling Rugby Union match between England and New Zealand at Twickenham in 1979. The image showcases the incredible skill and precision of Dave Loveridge, a prominent player for the All Blacks during their tour of England, Scotland, and Italy that year. As Loveridge passes the ball away with finesse and determination, his eyes focused on finding an open teammate, three English players - Colin Smart (#1), Maurice Colclough, and Nick Preston - watch intently. Their expressions reveal a mix of anticipation, determination, and perhaps even a hint of admiration for Loveridge's prowess on the field. This photograph encapsulates not only the intense competition between these two rugby powerhouses but also highlights the camaraderie shared among players from different nations who come together to showcase their skills on such prestigious stages like Twickenham. Colorsport photographer Colin Elsey has masterfully captured this moment frozen in time. Through his lens, he allows us to relive this historic clash between England and New Zealand while reminding us of the beauty and excitement that rugby union brings to both players and spectators alike. This print serves as a testament to the enduring legacy of these legendary teams as well as an inspiration for future generations of rugby enthusiasts around the world.
