"Greatest Moments of the Five & Six Nations" is a superb accumulation of 100 years of great rugby action from the longest running competition in the sport's history.
First there were just four, then five with the introduction of the French in 1910, and currently there are Six Nations, who battle out it out each year for the most coveted prize in European Rugby Union. Italy was, of course, the newest member country, that joined England, Wales, Scotland, Ireland and France to make up the half a dozen teams in the year 2000.
Rugby Union has grown hugely in popularity over the last 20 or so years and in this unique DVD, you will see exactly why. With great matches, fantastic tries and individual brilliance, the Six Nations, as it is now, is one of the highlights of the whole sporting calendar each and every year. Tracing the very roots of the tournament's origins, this well chronicled film, lasting nearly two and a half hours, contains early archive footage of our biggest domestic competition and features some early legends of the sport, such as Poulton Palmer and Wavell Wakefield. From Ireland's superlative Grand Slam in 1948, through Wales' continual dominance of the game in the 1970s, there is excellent action throughout. Steve Rider talks you through all the key moments, including England and Bill Beaumont's epic 1980 Grand Slam, as well as all those others achieved in the 1990s.
Celebrate a century of great rugby with this all-action DVD, covering the history and tradition of the Five & Six Nations tournament.
