EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the 1983 Five Nations Championship, we witness a fierce clash between England and Scotland on the rugby field. The image freezes a crucial moment as Scotland's Jim Calder charges forward, accompanied by his teammate Tom Smith in support. However, their progress is abruptly halted by the formidable presence of England's Nick Jeavons, who fearlessly dives into action to bring down his opponents. The intensity of this encounter is palpable as players from both sides give their all in pursuit of victory at Twickenham Stadium. Amidst the sea of determined faces and flying bodies, this snapshot encapsulates the raw physicality and unwavering passion that defines Rugby Union. Colorsport photographer Colin Elsey skillfully captures every detail with precision and artistry. The monochrome tones emphasize the grittiness of this historic match while allowing us to focus solely on the dramatic interaction unfolding before our eyes. This iconic photograph serves as a testament to not only these individual players but also to the spirit of camaraderie and sportsmanship that permeates through rugby culture. It immortalizes a pivotal moment in sporting history when two nations clashed for glory on that fateful day - March 5th, 1983 - forever etching it into rugby folklore.
